Oregon State University TRICA Reactor (OSTR), License Number R-106, Docket Number 50-243, ORDER TO SIIOW CAUSE dated September 27,1985 Gentlemen:

This letter is in response to the Commission's Order to Show Cause, dated September 27,1985, which establishes limits on the possession of unirradiated high enriched uranium fuel at the OSTR site. As provided for in 10 CFR 2.202(d), Oregon State University hereby consents to the entry of an order in substantially the form proposed in the above-referenced Orcer to Show Cause.

In consenting to the Commission's order, we would like to formally report that the OSTR is already in compliance with the specific possession criteria for unirradiated, high enriched uranium fuel which are detailed in section III, paragraph (1) of the Order to Show Cause. As a result, it is our conclusion that final enactment of the provisions of the Order to Show Cause will require no action on our part.

We trust that the information provided in this response will adequately address the concerns and requirements of the previously referenced order. However, should there be questions or a need for additional information, please let us know.
