Enclosure MEETING REPORT DATE:
March 5, 2008 TIME:
2:00 p.m. Eastern PLACE:
Two White Flint North, Room T-8C1 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Headquarters Rockville, Maryland PURPOSE:
To discuss license termination and site decommissioning plans for the Fermi-1 reactor.
ATTENDEES:
SEE ATTACHED LIST BACKGROUND:
The Fermi-1 reactor is located at Lagoona Beach, Frenchtown Township, Michigan. The reactor was shutdown in 1972. DTE Energy has been stabilizing the facility by passivating residual sodium and disposing of plant components and systems. DTE Energy is currently planning to submit a license termination plan in mid-2009, and terminate their license in 2012.
DISCUSSION:
The meeting was publicly noticed on February 12, 2008, by posting on the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission web site. The meeting began at approximately 2:00 p.m. EST. The following issues were discussed during the meeting:
- 1.
NRC (Ted Smith) made introductions and an opening statement, including opportunity to provide meeting feedback utilizing NRC Form 659, which was provided.
- 2.
DTE Energy (Lynne Goodman and Martin Erickson) presented a history of the site, described recent activities at the site, and their conceptual approach for license termination planning.
- a. DTE indicated current plans for decommissioning will leave Fermi-1 buildings in place after license termination under unrestricted release.
- 3. DTE Energy then discussed license termination planning communications, and project schedule and cost.
- a. Between trust funds and guarantees, DTE has sufficient funds to cover the estimated decommissioning costs.
ACTION ITEMS:
NRC agreed to evaluate the relationship between Fermi-2 license termination evaluations for residual radioactivity remaining onsite from a terminated Fermi-1 license.
Enclosure NRC and DTE agreed to a meeting and conference call schedule based on site activities, and reaching key planning milestones.
