McCLELLAN NUCLEAR RESEARCH CENTER September 7, 2016 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attn: Document Control Desk 1 White Flint North Rockville MD 20852 Ref: University of California, Davis McClellan Nuclear Research Center (UCDIMNRC), Docket No. 50-607, Facility Operating License No R-130.

Subject:

Withdrawal of Requested License Amendment No. 8.

Attachment:

July 15, 2011 MNRC letter to NRC "Requesting Amendment No.8 to Facility Operating License No. R-130, McClellan Nuclear Research Center" On July 15th of 2011 it was requested by the UCDIMNRC that the operating license be amended to adopt the proposed revision 14 to the UCDIMNRC technical specifications. The primary proposed change was the removal of the management position of "Operations Manager" that was incorporated into revision 13 of the technical specifications. This position was eliminated prompting the need for a change in the technical specifications which requires a license amendment.

The UCDIMNRC is requesting that license amendment No. 8 be withdrawn. The position of "Operations Manager" will be filled by the current reactor supervisor. As a result the Radiation Safety Officer will report to the Reactor Supervisor/Operations Manager. It has been emphasized to the Radiation Safety Officer that all safety and security issues or concerns should also be brought to the attention of the Facility Director.

The other proposed changes to the technical specification in the requested license amendment were minor in nature. The proposed changes in the original license amendment No. 8 will likely be incorporated into the UCDIMNRC' s license renewal application due in August of 2018. Please feel free to contact me if there are any questions or concerns.

In accordance with 10 CFR Part 50.30(b ), I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
