The most recent dates for reentry of Skylab are July 10 to 14, 1979, with July 12, as the most probable date.

Recognizing th.t a bit on a nuclear reactor would be highly unlikely by Skylab debris, the NRC believes it would be prucent for licensees to review their contingency plans in case such an event should actually occur.

The NRC is in communication with the Department of Energy (COE), and will receive notification from chem as soon as the reentry c'rridor can be established. This notification may occur within 1 to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> before reentry actually occur If it is decernined that there are any licensed nuclear power plants ir the reentry corridor, the plantc will receive notification from their-respective Regional Office via the dedicated phone line.

This Information Notice is provided as early notification of a possibly o

significant matter.

It is expected that recipients will review the informa-tion for possible applicability to their facilities.

No specific action or response is requested at this time.

If further NRC evaluations so indicate, an IE Circular or Bulletin will be issued to recomnend or request specific licnesee actions.
