Docket No. 50-142 (Proposed Renewal of Facility License)

RE:

FOLLOW-UP TO NOVEMBER 8 CONFERENCE CALL

Dear Administrative Judges:

10 CFR 73.60/73.67 FOIA REQUEST STATUS REPORT As per your request during the November 8 conference call, CBG has inquired with the NRC office responsible for handling CBG's Freedom of Information Act request on the 10 CFR 73.60/73.67 matter.

I spoke with Ms. Nina Toms of the Office of Rules and Rercords.

Ms. Toms apologized for the delay and indicated that the problem was that there were several offices that must review the requested documents prior to their release.

She indicated further that a portion of the documents were to be released at the end of this week, but that the bulk of them were now being forwarded to the licensee for its review prior to release to CBG.

Ms. Toms explained that the material, primarily safeguards inspection reports of the UCLA facility, had been reviewed as to whether certain material included therein should be deleted prior to release because it might contain sensitive safeguards information that could not be released under 70IA, and that it was this review that had taken so much time.

She indicated that only recently, however, had the FOIA office been made aware of the reduction in SNM holdings at the UCLA facility, which she said made the reports no longer in need of safeguards review, and that therefore the reports were being forwarded to the licensee (UCLA) to review as to possible proprietary (i.e., commercial, not safeguards) content.

As soon as UCLA, thus, completes its review, the FOIA request can be completed and CBG's supplementary filing served.

. DOCUMENT PRODUCTION REQUESTS REGARDING EMERGENCY PLAN In a related matter, please find enclosed CBG's request-to UCLA for document production, as directed during the November 8 conference call.

CBG is attempting to obtain the documents it needs from agencies not a party to this proceeding through voluntary means.

Should these means not prove fruitful, CBG may at that point request the issuance of a subpoena.

Resp c full submitted,
