EMERGENCY PLAN CHANGES FOR THE SAXTON NUCLEAR EXPERIMENTAL CORPORATION FACILITY (TAC NO. MB3990)

Dear Mr. Kuehn:

This letter acknowledges receipt of your letter dated February 4, 2002, which transmitted changes to the Saxton Nuclear Experimental Corporation (SNEC) Facility Emergency Response Procedure and Emergency Plan submitted under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(q).

The changes in the plan involved fire protection interactions with emergency response. The specific issues involved the use and training of radiological control technicians in support of the facilities fire brigade. Based on your determination that the changes do not decrease the effectiveness of your emergency plan, and that it continues to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47 and Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50, NRC approval is not required. Our initial review of these changes indicates them to be in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q).

Implementation of these changes will be subject to inspection to confirm that they did not decrease the effectiveness of your emergency plan.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commissions regulations, a copy of this letter will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room. If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-1127.

Sincerely,

/RA/
