20545 Project Agreement 192
Dear Mr. Rogosa:
?
I have received your letter'of October 31 1978 regaEding the return of irradiated fuel elements to the U.S. Government.
The re; urn will reduce
+
'our fuel inventory to a level commensurate with our tecurity provisions and will eliminate an " unresolved item" noted by a Nuclear !tegulatory Commission inspector during a recent routine security' inspection.
.s An estimate df the minimum cost of refurn is.xhown in Attai.hment 1.
/
Penalties due to delays beyond the control 'ol UCLA could increase the cost to something over $4000.
t Our request for DOE funding of the' return is based upon our React.r Fue{.
~
Cycle Assistance contract.
Thdt agreement stipulates under part A-II(b)(2);
that, among items to be contributed by the government and, (iii) during the term of this Project Agreement 192, the Commission.... will:
(B) Reimburse the University foI costs incurred in returning spent f'ue l elements for reprocessing, including rental of or fabrication charges for ship' ping containers as mutually agreed to by the parties.
The University supports the normal on-going cost of reactor operations.
Because of Project Agreement 192, the University has never budgeted the cost of fuel return.
Under the tight budgets to today, $4000 represents a major matter to the School and a serious matter to the Nuclear Encrgy Facility.
I believe the government should honor t he commi t nent of PA l92 and the current Mn.1 7 supplement.
I respert fully rerguest Dol'. supinert of Ihe cont of this fuel return.
