October 2, 2006 MEMORANDUM TO: Larry Camper, Director Division of Waste Management and Environmental Protection Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards FROM: Ho Nieh, Acting Director /RA by John Lubinski for/

Division of Policy and Rulemaking Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation

SUBJECT:

INDIAN POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, UNIT 1 -

TRANSFER OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES On October 1, 2006, project management for Indian Point, Unit 1, was transferred from the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Division of Policy and Rulemaking, to your organization.

This change was made to consolidate the NRC decommissioning activities in one central organization.

The plant was shutdown in October 1974. Some decommissioning work associated with spent fuel storage was performed from 1974 through 1978. The Order approving safe storage and delayed dismantling (SAFSTOR) was issued in January 1996. The post-shutdown decommissioning activities report (PSDAR) public meeting was held on January 20, 1999. The licensee plans to decommission Unit 1 with Unit 2, which is currently in operation. The licensee intends to move fuel from the Unit 1 spent fuel pool to an onsite independent spent fuel storage installation as part of the Indian Point Energy Center spent fuel campaign.

The staff has reviewed the guidance in NRR Office Instruction COM-101, NRR Interfaces with NMSS, and finds that Indian Point, Unit 1, is in a safe, stable condition and can be transferred to the Division of Waste Management and Environmental Protection, NMSS (NMSS/DWMEP).

The safety and regulatory milestones identified in COM-101 have been met and no open items remain that would preclude the transfer of the facility.

The NRR staff reviewed the items listed in Appendix C, The Checklist, of COM-101 and compiled a list of remaining open issues for Indian Point, Unit 1. This list is attached. We will complete the transfer of documents and files to your staff, and coordination of future activities will be pursuant to COM-101.

Michael Webb, Project Manager, at 301-415-1347, will provide support to your staff as requested and will inform the licensee that NMSS/DWMEP will now provide regulatory oversight of its facility.
