UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 April 17, 2020 Paul J. OConnor, Ph.D.
Facility Director Dow TRIGA Research Reactor The Dow Chemical Company Building 1602 Midland, MI 48674
SUBJECT:
THE DOW CHEMICAL COMPANY - ORDER APPROVING INDIRECT TRANSFER OF CONTROL OF RENEWED FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE NO. R-108 FOR THE DOW TRIGA RESEARCH REACTOR (EPID NO. L-2019-LLM-0004)
Dear Dr. OConnor:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has completed its review of the Dow Chemical Company (TDCC) application dated November 22, 2019 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML19330E244), requesting approval of the indirect transfer of control of Renewed Facility Operating License No. R-108 for the Dow TRIGA Research Reactor. The indirect transfer of control resulted from the merger of TDCC with E.I. du Pont De Nemours and Company in August 2017, which established a new parent company, DowDuPont, Inc. Subsequently, in April 2019, Dow, Inc. was formed as a separate company from DowDuPont, Inc. and TDCC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dow, Inc.
is the Order that approves the indirect transfer of control pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 50.80, Transfer of licenses. Enclosure 2 is the NRC staffs safety evaluation (SE) of the indirect transfer of control. The SE will be placed in the NRC public document room and added to the ADAMS Publicly Available Records System Library.
The Order will be forwarded to the Office of the Federal Register for publication. If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-0893, or by electronic mail at Geoffrey.Wertz@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA Greg Casto for/
