SUBJECT:

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND - DETERMINATION OF ACCEPTABILITY AND SUFFICIENCY FOR DOCKETING AND OPPORTUNITY FOR A HEARING REGARDING THE APPLICATION FOR RENEWAL OF FACILITY LICENSE NO. R-70 FOR MARYLAND UNIVERSITY TRAINING REACTOR (TAC NO.

ME1592)

Dear Dr. Al-Sheikhly:

By letter dated May 12, 2000, as supplemented by letters dated June 7, August 4, September 17, and October 7, 2004; April 18, 2005; April 25, August 28, September 7, November 9, and December 18, 2006; and May 27, 2010, the University of Maryland submitted an application to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for renewal of Facility Operating License No. R-70 for the Maryland University Training Reactor (MUTR).

Based on initial review of the application, the NRC staff determined that UMD submitted sufficient information such that the application is acceptable for docketing in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50.33 and 50.34. However, the NRC staffs determination does not preclude requests for additional information as the review proceeds.

Enclosed is a copy of the Notice of Acceptance for Docketing and Opportunity for Hearing on the Application Regarding Renewal for an Additional 20-year Period for the MUTR and Order Imposing Procedures for Access to Safeguards Information and Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards Information being sent to the Office of the Federal Register for publication. The notice provides the opportunity to request a hearing and to file a petition for leave to intervene.

M. Al-Sheikhly If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Spyros A. Traiforos at 301-415-3965 or via email at Spyros.Traiforos@nrc.gov or myself at 301-415-1127 or via email at Alexander.Adams@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
