Gentlemen:
Action compi As instructed in your notice of 5 February 1980, we do hereby appiy uy Docket letter to renew our present Special Nuclear Material License No. SNM-1523, ion No. 70-1954, due to expire April 30, 1980 As instructed in Part 70, Sect 70.21, 70.22 and 70.33 of Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, we address the following points:
- 1) Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Woods Hole, Massachusetts 02543
- 2) The activity for which the special nuclear material is requested 1.s for basic research in marine chemistry, biology, geochemistry or engineering.
Radionuclides are used in Chemistry as' tracers during the development of new radiochemical methods, and as yield monitors in radiochemical analysis of environmental samples.
They are used in Chemistry and Geochemistry in a variety of experiments designed to look at the Interaction with marine particulates. They are used in a large variety of experiments in Biology to look at biochemical interactions.
- 3) We request the present license be renewed for a period of five (5) years.
- 4) Special Nuclear Material Form Maximum Possessable Amount Plutonium 236 Any 1 microcurie 237 20 microcuries 238 I microcurie 239 10 microcuries 242 0.002 microcuries 5)
Reserved
- 6) We call attention to the attachment "WH01 Isotope Users Manual" dated August 1979, in which is set out the positions and function of the Isotopes Users Committee, as effective Radiation Safety Officers of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
Further we attach the Curricula Vitae and Bib-liographies of the present Committee Members:

Nuclear Regulatory Commission It will be evident from these that each member of the Committee has had many years of experience in all aspects of radiation protection and radio-nuclide manipulation; for most members these years of on-the-job training were supplemented by formal courses, although in Dr. Bowen's case, it was in teaching such a course, not as a student.
- 7) For a description of the equipment and facilities which will be used, see the enclosed attachment.
- 8) For a description of the procedures to protect health and minimized danger to life or property, see the enclosed attachment plus the Woods Hole Ocean-ographic Institution "WH0I Isotopes Users Manual".
Attached is our check in the amount of $460 which we understand to be the fee for the renewal of a license in this classification.
