SUBJECT:
CLOSE-0VT INSPECTION FOR ROCKWELL INTERNATIONAL FCEL REACTOR By letter dated April 30, 1980, Rockwell International notified the NRC that they had dismantled their FCEL reactor.
Rockwell International pro-vided final radiation survey results, requested a close-out inspection by the NRC and requested termination of License No. CX-17.
As discussed with Mr. Frank Wenslawski of Region V, we request that I&E perform a close-out inspection at the FCEL facility to confirm the radia-tion survey results in the April 30, 1980 letter from Rockwell (Enclosure 1).
Please contact Pete Erickson (27435) of my staff if you have any questions on this matter.

Dear Mr. Gammill:
Subject:
Radiation Survey Report of the FCEL Reactor Facility Following Dismant'lement and Decontamination of the Facility The Fast Critical Experimental Laboratory (FCEL) reactor covere'd by facility License CX-17 has been dismantled in accordance with the' dismantling plan submitted with the application transmitted with our letter of July 16,1974 (Reference 1 above) and the dismantling order transmitted with your letter of November 1,1974 (Reference 2 above).
The facility has also been decontaminated as described in the disman-tling plan transmitted with the July 16, 1974 letter.
Enclosed with this letter is a report on the radiation survey of the facility showing that the radiation levels in the facility area do indeed meet the require-ments described in the dismantling plan.
We are now requesting that the facility be inspected by representatives of the Commission, termination of License CX-17 be authorized, and the facility be released for unre-stricted use.

8 00soro 5 54 REPORT OF RADIATION SURVEY OF THE FCEL REACTOR FACILITY IN SUPPORT OF REQUEST TO TERMINATE FACILITY LICENSE CX-17 AND TO RELEASE THE FACILITY FOR UNRESTRICTED USE DOCKET NO. 50-147
- 1. 0 ItGRODUCTION Operations under the dismantling plan authorized by previous NRC (USAEC) order dated November 1,1974, have been ccmpleted.
This report presents the supporting information indicating that the dismantling effort has be2n completed so that the facility license may be tenninated and the facility released for unrestricted use.
2.0 STATUS OF FACILITY DISMANTLING The split-table critical machine has been dismantled and removed.
Other hardware and parts not necessary for operation of the building have been removed with the exception of an instrument shop. The instrument shop has occupied and will continue to occupy the rooms in the building as indicated in Figure 1.
The building has been cleaned and surveyed for contamination.
No covering material such as painting, plating, or wax has been applied to the floor, walls, equipment, or structure remaining in the building.
Such covering will not be applied until after NRC approval to release for unrestricted use.
3.0 RESULTS OF SURVEY FOR ' ACTIVATION PRODUCTS AND TOTAL SURFACE ACTIVITY The area in and around where the split-table critical machine was located has been checked for evidence of induced radioactivity.
This included the pit area below the split table and theh e,Wi'yqqp2KG, when it was in place.
