In addition, the license authorizes the packaging of fuel assemblies for delivery to a carrier. This latter authority enables you to return fuel assemblies to their shipping containers if there is a need to transfer the assemblies to another locatica, e.g., return to the manufacturer. The delivery of the assemblies to a carrier inust be in accordance with 10 CFR Part 71, " Packaging of Radioactive Material fo'. Transport and Transportation of Radioactive Material Under C'itain e

Your application for license requested an exemption from the provisions of 10 CFR 70.24. Such an exemption would relieve you from the requirements of having a criticality alarm system. Because of the inherent features associated with the storage and inspection of unirradiated fuel, the NRC Staff has determined that you have shown good cause for granting the exemption and that granting such an exemption will not endanger public life or property or the common defense and security and is otherwise in the public interest.
The license conditions were discussed with and agreed to by Mr. Percy Hammons, representing Tennessee Valley Authority, and Mr. J. C. Delaney of my staff.
As requested by your January 8,1980 letter, we reviewed Section 1.2.5 (Access Control) of your license application dated August 31, 1979 and have determined the information mntained therein to be proprietary. We have also reviewed your
" Summary of Physical Security Arrangements for Initial Fuel Receipt at Bellefonte" anc have determined that this document also contains proprietary information.
Accordingly, both documents will be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 2.790(d) of 10 CFR Part 2.
Sincerely, R. G. Pa ing Chief Uranium Fuel Licensing Branch Division of Fuel Cycle and Material Safety
