VERMONT YANKEE NUCLEAR POWER STATION LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION REVIEW

Dear Mr. Fisk:

During our review of the license renewal application by Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc., for Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Station, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) found a record of a potential archaeological site on or near the right of way for the transmission line from the Vermont Yankee substation to the Coolidge substation. Information on Site VT-WD-24 was identified by a contractor from Argonne National Laboratory working for the NRC while conducting an archeological records search at the offices of the Vermont State Division of Historic Preservation (VDHP) in Montpelier, Vermont. The purpose of this letter is to make Vermont Electric Power Company (VELCO) aware of this potential archaeological site so VELCO can take the appropriate measures to preserve the site. For more details about the site and its location, please contact the VDHP office.

If you have any other questions, please contact Mr. Richard L. Emch, Jr., Senior Project Manager, by phone at 301-415-1590 or by e-mail at rle@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
