DecM t*No. 50-219 Mr. E. E. Fitzpatrick Vice President and Director Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station i
Post Office Box 388 Forked River, New Jersey 08731
Dear Mr. Fitzpatrick:
SUBJECT:
DIRECTOR'S DECISION UNDER 2.206 REGARDING BWR DESIGN PROBLEMS Enclosed for your information are copies of a Director's Decision, letter of transmittal, and Federal Register notice issued by the Director, filed under Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (Director) in response to a Petition 10 CFR 2.206 of the Commission's regulations.
The Petition was filed by Ms. Anna Harlowe on behalf of the Ecology Center of Southern California.
The petitioner requested that the NRC fix or close all nuclear power reactors designed by General Electric Company (GE). As discussed in the enclosed Director's Decision, the Petitioner's request under 10 CFR 2.206 has been denied.
l The petitioner also expressed concern that GE is pursuing a " standardized" Advanced Boiling Water Reactor design which petitioner alleges fails to address many of the shortcomings identified by GE's own engineers as far back as the 1975 Reed Report.
The petitioner was inforud that the staff has not yet completed its safety evaluation for advanced boiling water reactor designs, nor has any utility applied for a license to build or operate an advanced
. bolling water reactor.
r Sincerely, j
/s/
e John F. Stoir, Director Proje c t Directorate.1-4 Civisb>n of Reactor Projects - 1/;l Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
