Docket No. 50-83 s

Gentlemen ,

Decommissioning report information is supplied for the University of Florida e modified Argonaut-type reac*or(the University of Florida Training Reactor -

UFTR) in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.33 and 50.75 as follows:

1. The estimated cost for the complete decommissioning of the UFTR modified.

Argonaut-type reactor fr.cility is $2.02 million. This cost estimate is a conservative value based upon consideration of the detailed cost estimate '

provided by the University of Washington in their decommissioning plan for a similar 100 kW Argonaut-type reactor f acility. Our cost estimate assumes i most work for the decommissioning will be perforiaed by contractors as_ was the assumption by the University of Washington for their f acility; however, our cost estimate also includes a site specific cost estimate (lower than the Washington case) for asbestos removal from the UFTR facility as well as certain other survey activities to be performed in house at lower cost.

These conditions result in a somewhat lower estimated decommissioning cost than the comparable facility at the University of Washington but this cost estimate is still considered to be conservative.

2. The University of Florida is a state institution and thus, according to the provisions of 10 CFR 50.75(e)(2)(iv), the funds needed for decommissioning will be requested from the State of Florida Legislature if and when a decision to decommission the University of Florida *eactor facility is made.

3. The cost estimate for decommissioning the UFTR reactor f acility for years 1991 and beyond will be adjusted for inflation by the consumec price index and the new estimate kept on file at the facility. A
