November 10, 2011 Mr. Ralph Butler, Director Research Reactor Center University of Missouri-Columbia Research Park Columbia, MO 65211

SUBJECT:

UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURIREQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL TIME TO RESPOND TO NRC REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING LICENSE RENEWAL (TAC NO. MD3034)

Dear Mr. Butler:

The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) received an electronic mail (e-mail) from Leslie Foyto dated September 30, 2011, which summarized discussions between your staff and staff of the NRC, requesting additional time to complete the responses to our request for additional information (RAI) provided by NRC letters dated May 6 and June 1, 2010. By letters dated July 16, August 31, September 3 and 30, October 29, and November 30, 2010, and March 11 and September 8, 2011, you provided partial responses to our questions. You requested that answers to the remaining RAIs from NRC be submitted by January 13, 2012.

Based on our review we agree with your extension request because of the additional work needed to address RAIs answers due to a discrepancy discovered in your original safety analysis for 10 MW(t) operation. This resulted in a separate request for license amendment submitted on August 24, 2011.

The new date for the completion of the remaining RAIs and revisions to RAI responses already submitted to NRC that are impacted by the discrepancy is January 13, 2012. Please provide a status on your progress for meeting this due date by December 13, 2011. If you have any questions, please contact me by telephone at 301-415-1127 or by e-mail at Alexander.Adams@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
