- Althouch the, applicant,Ein'his, letter of September 15,1976. (J.T. Rodcers to
~J. Stolz) requested permission lto perforn fuel loading and subcritical testing only,we haveJalso perforacd an analysis to determine whether les poster testing, and at diat level cculd be perritted. ' W acrec wits the eclicenc t%t tW muld be no fission prcducts~ or 3ctivatio7 croducts re? sat in the cw Mel primary ccolant to constitute any sianificar.t radiction Surd.
