Phukan Consulting Engineers and Associates, Inc.

ATTN: Arvind Phukan, P.E., President

203 W. 15th Ave.

Suite 104

Anchorage, Alaska 99501

Gentlemen:

I am responding to your letters of February 5,1993, February 16, 1993, and

August 13, 1992, seeking relief from payment of the annual fee for License

50-29002 01, Invoice AM07230-92.

The Commission is considering your

correspondence as an exemption request.

The bases for your request are:

1) the licensed meter has not been used for

the past two years effective January 1991 and you have no intention of using

it; 2) you have paid all fees for 1991; 3) you believe you told someone on

the phone last year of your intent to cancel the license but did not send a

letter confirming your intent;

4)

it is a serious monetary burden to pay the

license fee when you are not doing any business to earn money to pay for the

license; and 5) your August 13, 1992, letter stated you were in the process

of selling the equipment and should not require the license after it is sold.

As stated in the final revision to the Commission's fee regulations in 10 CFR Parts 170 and 171 for FY 1992, which was published in the Federal Register

July 23, 1992, the Commission exempted from the FY 1992 annual fee those

licensees and holders of certificates, registrations and approvals who either

filed for termination or for a possession only/ storage license during the

period October 1, 1991, through December 31, 1991.

Our records show that on March 19, 1992, we received your notification of a

change of address, and on May 20, 1992, you notified us of your company's name

change. Neither of these submittals requested that the license be terminated

or be amended to authorize possession only.

Further, following a telephone

conversation with you on August 13, 1992, you were faxed a note concerning the

balance due on Invoice AM08616-91 for the FY 1991 annual fee and stating that

with the payment you should submit information regarding termination of the

license.

Your August 13, 1992, letter submitting the payment stated that you

were in the process of selling the equipment and should not require a license

after it sells.

To date, the Commission has not received a request from you

to terminate the license.

Since you stated that the licensed material has not been used for two years

and that you are in the process of selling the equipment, the Commission will

accept, consistent with the appropriate regulations in 10 CFR Part 30, a

written request from Phukan Consulting Engineers and Associates, Inc. to

terminate License 50-29002-01 or to amend the License to authorize

possession / storage only as being timely filed for purposes of avoiding the FY

,

1992 annual fee if it is submitted within fifteen (15) days from the date of

this letter.

Enclosed is an NRC form 314, Certificate of Disposition of

Materials, for your use if you want to terminate the license.

A request to

terminate the license would not be subject to an amendment fee; however, if

you request an amendment to place the license in a possession / storage only

status, your request must be accompanied by the appropriate amendment fee

specified in fee Category 3P of 10 CFR 170.31. The current amendment fee is

$410.

,

If you need additional information on the requirements for terminating the

license or amending the license to authorize possession / storage only, please

contact the Region V licensing staff at (510) 975-0200.

If you are unable to file for termination or possession / storage only within

'

fifteen days from the date of this letter, Invoice No. AM07230-92 must be paid

in full.

The amount due through April 9, 1993, is $2,498.72, which includes

interest, penalty and administrative charges.

Sincerely,

,
