Dear Sir:

In accordance with Facility License R-78 I submit the following annual re-port for the period July 1, 1981 to June 30, 1982.

1. Routine operation of the reactor accumulated .28 megawatt hours mostly at 250 ley.

2. Unscheduled shutdown occurred on March 31, April 7, 16 and 29, 1982.

The cause was electrical transients of unknown origin.

3. Routine maintenance has been successful in avoiding any necessity for performing special preventative and corrective maintenance having safety significance.

4. There have been no changes in the facility or in the procedures nor have any test or experiments been carried out without prior approval by the NRC pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59.

5. Gross Beta and Gamma activities released to the sanitary sewer system from the demineralizer regeneration effluent hold-up tank was less than .029 pCi and less than .61 pCi respectively.

6. Air samples taken outside of the Reactor Building were as follows for the period 7-01-81 to 6-30-82 (error given at 20 level):

Beta Activity '.ve rag e (1.2 1.8) x 10- pCi Gamma Activity Average (10.2 15.7) x 10~ pCi Q

Beta Activity Average (1.1 1.6) x 10~ pCi

-2 Gamma Activity Average (6.4 I 1.5) x 10 Ci

8. No facility personnel or visitors received any significant radiation.
