AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission ACTION: Notice of Removal from the Site Decommissioning Management Plan for the former Clevite Corporation site (Clevite)

This notice is to inform the public that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is removing the former Clevite Corporation (Clevite) site in Cleveland, Ohio from the Site j? -

Decommissioning Management Plan (SDMP). Clevite manufactured nuclear fuel for the$tomic 3

Energy Commission (AEC), including high-enriched uranium fuel for the U.S. Navy and AEC research reactors, as well as thorium products. The AEC issued several licenses to Clevite in j the late 1950s. Licensed activities at the site ceased in 1962.

NRC surveys conducted in 1993 showed uranium contamination at several locations in the facility. Gould, Electronics, Inc. (formerly Gould, Inc.), which merged with the Clevite Corporation in 1969, accepted responsibility for remediation of the site. Gould, Electronics, Inc.

. began the remediation process in 1993 and completed remediation in May 1998. Based on:

(1) remedial actions taken by Gould, Electronics, Inc. and documented in the Final Status a Survey Report, and (2) the results of NRC's confirmatory surveys, NRC concludes that the facility has been adequately remediated and is suitable for unrestricted use. Removal from the SDMP will be reopened only if additional contamination, or noncompliance with remediation commitments is found indicating a significant threat to public health and safety.
