UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 October 5, 2016 Mr. Scott P. Murray, Manager Licensing & Liabilities Global Nuclear Fuel-Americas 3901 Castle Hayne Road P.O. Box 780 - M/C K-84 Wilmington, NC 28401

SUBJECT:

GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY PARENT GUARANTEE OF FUNDS FOR DECOMMISSIONING, ANNUAL FINANCIAL TEST (COST ACTIVITY CODE L33410)

Dear Mr. Murray:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) reviewed your documents relating to financial assurance for the General Electric Company, submitted by letter dated March 18, 2016. This financial assurance documentation addresses decommissioning financial assurance for the Global Nuclear Fuel - Americas Fuel Manufacturing facility, the Reuter-Stokes facility, the Vallecitos Nuclear Center, and the Morris Operations facility.

The NRC staff reviewed the documents for conformance to NRCs regulations and NUREG-1757, Volume 3, Consolidated NMSS Decommissioning Guidance: Financial Assurance, Recordkeeping, and Timeliness. The documents submitted were found acceptable in accordance with NUREG-1757, Volume 3, Appendix A.8. The licensees comply with Appendix A, Criteria Relating to Use of Financial Tests and Parent-Company Guarantees for Providing Reasonable Assurance of Funds for Decommissioning of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 30; therefore, the parent company guarantee is acceptable financial assurance for decommissioning. The enclosed Safety Evaluation documents the staffs finding. To continue utilizing the parent-company guarantee, General Electric must repeat passage of the financial test within 90 days after the close of each succeeding fiscal year as required by 10 CFR, Part 30, Appendix A, Section C.1.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRCs document system, Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).Technical Assignment Control number L33410 is considered closed.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, I can be reached by phone at (301) 415-7352 or via e-mail at Tyrone.Naquin@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA Robert Johnson Acting for/
