'Ihe University of New Mexico i Chemical & Nuclear Engineering 209 Farris Engineering Center Albuquerque, NM 87131-1341 Telephone (505) 277-543! January 5,1996 FAX (505) 277-5433 Marvin M. Mendoca Senior Project Manager Non-Power Reactors and Decommissioning Project Directorate Office ofNuclear Reactor Regulation U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington D.C. 20555-0001 Dear Mr. Mendoca; In review ofour technical specifications for the AGN-20lM reactor located at the University of New Mexico - Docket 50-252, we note that we are not in compliance with Section 6.9.1 - Annual Operating Repon. A review of our records indicates that the annual report which shot.!d have been sent to you not later than September 30,1995 was not submitted. To remedy this situation, I have enclosed a copy ofthe 1995 annual report for our facility. The major reason for the oversight on this issue was the effective shutdown of our facility waiting on approval of amendments to the technical specifications. Due to equipment failure in November of 1994, we required new equipment and amendment to the technical specifications to resume operation. The approval of the revised technical specifications was received in mid-November 1995 and since that time we have been working on installation and verification of the new equipment. In the process of operator requalification it was noted that we had not submitted the annual report. We believe that achieving operational status and l resuming normal operations will provide us with the necessary checks on compliance with all of the technical specifications so that the oversight with the annual report will not occur again. If you require additional information, please contact me via E-mail at busch@mm.edu or by phone at (505) 277-8027.
