- 2-DEC 2 01985 i Since the revised rule became effective on June 20. the end of each six-month cycle for the above applications and services is the last NRC full pay period

in December and June of each year. On this basis, the first six-month cycle for i

them ended December 22, 1984, and ti.a second six-month cycle ended on June 22.

j 1985. Recently bills were issued for most of the applications under category 1 above for the cycle ending December 22, 1984. We are actively compiling data for billing categories 2 through 5 above for the first six-month cycle and you can expect to receive bills fra the NRC's Office of Resource Management in the near future. Contractual costs cover the period of July through November 30. 1984.

Each category will be on a separate invoice. For those applications for which you paid the $150 application fee, credit will be given in the first-bills for this application fee. If the cost to December 22, 1984, is less than $150 the

balance of the credit will be given in subsequent bills. Footnote 2 to the schedule in 10 CFR 170.21 provides that no application review costs will be i less than $150.

i If you have a question or wish to challenge a portion of a bill, we would suggest i

that you pay the unchallenged portion of the bill by the due date to avoid interest and penalty charges on that portion. Enclosed for your infomation is a copy of 4

the "NRC Procedures for Extending Payment Dates of License Fee Billings."

In the future, we do not plan to send letters to notify you of the iluminent I i

issuance of bills. Please accept our apologies for the delayed issuance of the bills under the revised schedule.

Sincerely.

William O. Miller. Director License Fee Management Staff Office of Administration
