Watters to W.
T.
Crow, dated 3/6/87 Gentlemen:
The B&W Fuel Company, Commercial Nuclear Fuel Plant is planning to shut down fuel fabrication activities this summer due to reactor relcad schedules.
The start and duration of the shutdown period is dependent on the receipt of a fuel assembly download contract for Dairyland Power's Lacrosse reactor.
If we receive the contract, the shutdown period will be from August 9 through September 9 inclusive.
If we do not receive the contract, the shutdown period will be from July 9 through September 9 inclusive.
During the shutdown period, we plan to do nS fabrication work or mc vement of SNM, except that fuel assemblies may be shipped to customer sites or received at the CNFP.
Thel fuel: assembly shipments and receipts will be handled in accord withnour ricense.
In addition, we will continue to perform maintenance on our ECHO-330 system during the shutdown period.
There will be non-SNM work continuing in plant during the shutdown period, and as such there will be a crew of authorized R&W Fuel
~
Company employees present (including management and necessary Health-Safety personnel) during normal working hours.
Since the plant status with regard to SNM will be that of a storage facility, we requect approval of the license exemptions and modifications listed in Attachment I to this letter, for the shutdown period.
We have kept the ECHO-330 controls and requirements intact (Section V, Pages 67-75) due to its operational status during the shutdown period.

Mr.'Leland C.
Rouse Page 2 May 31, 1988 In the unforeseen event that it should become necessary.to initiate activities including SNM (other than fuel assembly shipments or receipts), we will send a written notification of renewed licensed activity to the NRC Fuel Cycle Safety Branch and to NRC Region II prior to, or within one working day of the start of the activity.
The notification shall include the start dat" of the activity, anticipated duration of the activity, and the type of activity.. A cleanup and survey will be performed and recorded after each such activity, with records maintained for subsequent NRC inspection.
In Attachment I, we indicate a number of exemptions and modifications that are referenced to the applicable part of Section V.
Many of these license requirements are given as daily, weekly, and monthly, etc.
For these cases, the requested change is indicated immediately after the existing frequency requirement.
A line is drawn through the existing requirement to show what we are requesting (i.e.,
cakly/ monthly indicates we want to change from a weekly to a monthly frequency).
If such activity during the shutdown period should become necessary, all quarterly license commitments, which would normally fall in the shutdown period, all monthly license commitments for that or each month, all weekly license commitments for that or each week, and all daily commitments for that or each day during which the activity takes place shall be performed.
These changes are the same as that requested for the June 15, 1987 to August 31, 1987 shutdown (see Reference 4 noted above).
If questions arise during your review, please feel free to call me at (804) 522-6202.
A check for $150.00 is included with this letter to cover the administrative licensing fee.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this request.
