DOCKET NOS. 50-247 AND 50-286 LICENSE NOS. DPR-26 AND DPR-64 RECEIPT OF REQUEST FOR ACTION UNDER 10 CFR 2.206 Notice is hereby given that by petition dated March 30, 2008, Mr. Sherwood Martinelli has requested that the NRC (1) suspend the license for IP2 and IP3 reactors located in Buchanan, NY owned by Entergy until they are fully in compliance with all 10 CFR Rules and Regulations, as well as other local, state and federal laws and regulations, and have eliminated the environmental risks that have contributed to, and/or caused my wifes breast cancer, and (2) halt the License Renewal Process.

The request is being treated pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206 of the Commissions regulations.

The request has been referred to the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR). The Petitioner participated in a conference call with the NRR Petition Review Board (PRB) on August 14, 2008, to discuss the petition. The additional information provided by the Petitioner was considered by the PRB before making its final recommendation. By letter dated

, 2008, the Director accepted for review, pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206, the Petitioners concerns regarding the licensees failure to implement the new emergency notification siren system in a timely manner. The Director also informed the Petitioner that the

siren issues in this petition would be combined with the Petitioners earlier petition on the new siren system, dated September 28, 2007. The earlier petition was noticed in the Federal Register on February 25, 2008 (73 FR 10068). The Director informed the Petitioner that his issues on groundwater contamination were considered by the NRC in response to an earlier petition by the Petitioner. A Final Directors Decision was issued on August 14, 2008, and noticed in the Federal Register on August 21, 2008 (73 FR 49495). The NRC found that the licensee was in compliance with the pertinent NRC regulatory requirements on the release of radioactive isotopes and that public health and safety have not been, nor are likely to be, adversely affected.

As provided by Section 2.206, appropriate action will be taken on this petition within a reasonable time.
