R.A. Karam, Director

/k/[ ,

SUBJECT:

REORGANIZATION OF THE NUCLEAR RESEARCH CENTER The license to opdrate the Neely Nuclear Research Center is given to Georgia Tech by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission. This license requires operation in compliance with the Technical Specifications, the Safety Analysis Report and all applicable rules and regulations in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Technical Specifications 6.1.a, Figure 6.1 specifies that administrative responsibility for the NNRC resides with the office of the Vice President for Research. As such, I am formally requesting that the Neely Nuclear Research Center

-organization be restructured as shown on the attached chart.

4 There are many reasons for this request which ha.a been discussed with you informally. One of the main reasons, however, is that the U.S.N.R.C. charges the office of the Director of the NNRC, in accordance with Technical Specifications 6.1.a, with the overall- responsibilitiy for the direction and operation of the facility including safeguarding the general public and facility 1

personnel from radiation exposure and adhering to all requirements of ti he license. This responsibility cannot be met totally under the present organizational structure because the Office.of Radio-logical Safety is independent and in actual practice reports to no one. The U.S.N.R.C. is in agreement with this assessment.

I believe that the reorganization will immeasurably improve

. safety, productivity, and programatic goals. If you have any questions please let me know.
