Dear Dr. Charlton:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff is continuing its review of the University of Texas at Austin (UT) application for renewal of Facility Operating License No. R-129, for the Nuclear Engineering Teaching Laboratory nuclear research reactor, dated December 12, 2011 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML12156A097), as supplemented by letter dated February 21, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12061A009). The NRC staff requested a schedule for completion of the reactor analyses, by letter dated October 18, 2018 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18262A182).

By letter dated November 14, 2018 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18334A096), UT staff has requested an extension to December 17, 2018, to provide the schedule. The NRC staff acknowledges that UT staff has developed a proposal requesting support to complete the reactor analyses with the Department of Energy and that the schedule is pending. Based on this information, the NRC staff find that the new response date of December 17, 2018, to be acceptable. If you have any questions, contact me at (301) 415-0893 or by electronic mail at Geoffrey.Wertz@nrc.gov.
