Dear Mr. MacDonaid:

Enclosec are se.en (7) copies of Batti.le's ::iumbus Laboratories' Quality Assurance P!an, 3CL-ilSP-2, Rev. i, fer -he :1:kaging and transport of radioac 've materials.
This :lan revision has been pre:ared to respond t: your request of Septerber 2,19E2, for additional inf: cati:n for your review.
The attached Table i contains the additional inic-stion request state.~ents, and the secti:n and page number -ef arence to the res:: se in:crporated in the plan.
As a result of transportation damage to a wooden secondary containment package, SCL's pemit for radioactive waste cis:osal in the State of tievada has been indefinitely sus; ended. The reinstate ent of this permit requires approval of the BCL revised Q. A. progran for packi;ing and transportation of radioactive material by both the State cf :levada and llP.C.
Battelle, therefore, requests the fiRC tc review the revised Q.A. progra plan and perform an ins::ection of the pl an's implementation. Arrangements #:r such an inspection of the plan have been ade with "r. Charles Peck, an i s:ector assigned to your Region III off':e.
A cop / of BCL-TiSp-2, Rev.1, has been #:rwarded to ffr. Peck.
He will conduct an audit art ins;:e: tion of the implementation Of our plan during his next for-al inspection of 30:.'s license activities.
Battelle requests the URC to notify Mr. John Vaden of the ?levada Depart e. of Human Resources in Las Vegas when inspection resul s verify BCL's ccroliar.ce to the approved plan.
Battelle may then apoly to tne 5 tate of fievada for rainstatement of the per :it to transport radioactive waste to a li ansed contractor in the State of fievada for burial.
