License Amendment Request

Dear Mr. Rouse:

Combustion Engineering recently informed the Nuclear Regulatory Commission of changes made to our Nuclear Fuel organization to strengthen our management team. These organizational changes have made it necessary to revise our IIematito Nuclear Fuel Manufacturing Facility License Number SNM-33. This letter, therefore, requests Nuclear Regulatory Commission approval of a clarifying amendment as provided in the Enclosure.

Consistent with the existing license, this amendment includes both names and resumes of key personnel included in our enhanced management team.

A brief summary of the changes incorporated in the amendment are as follows:

Mr. F. M. Stern has been named to the new position of Vice President, Nuclear Fuel Manufacturing.

In this capacity, Mr. Stern is responsible for all nuclear fuel manufacturing related activities for I

the llematite and Windsor Fuel Manufacturing Facilities. Mr. Stern reports to Dr. P. L. McGill who has overall responsibility for all Nuclear Fuel related activities.

Mr. A. E. Scherer is the Director of Nuclear Licensing for Nuclear Power Systems.

In addition to his other responsibilities, as a member of the Nuclear Fuel management team Mr. Scherer will be responsible for the C-E/NRC interface on matters concerning the liematite license.

Mr. Scherer is also directly responsible for the C-E/NRC interface on matters concerning the Windsor license and shipping container Certificates of Compliance.

In this capacity, Mr. Scherer reports to and acts on behalf of Dr. McGill.

Mr. P. R. Rosenthal has been appointed to the new position of Manager of Radiological and Industrial Safety, lie is responsible for all radiological prote': tion, nuclear criticality safety, and industrial safety related activities for the Windsor and liematite Nuclear Fuel Manufacturing and Product Development facilities. Mr. Rosenthal reports to Mr. Stern.

Mr. L. N. Grossman has been named to the new position of Director of Manufacturing Technology.

110 is primarily responsible for plant upgrades for the Windsor and IIematito Nuclear Fuel Manufacturing and Product Development facilities.

Mr. Grossman is also available for expert manufacturing advice.

Mr. Grossman reports to Mr. Stern.

1 Mr. G. II. Chalder has been appointed to the now position of Senior Staff Consultant. Ile will be providing expert advice on fual facility operation to the Vice President, Nucleer Fuels Manufacturing and the llamatito and Windsor Plant Managers. Mr. Chalder reports to Mr. Stern.

The licenso amendment provided in the Enctosure represents the minimum changes required to clarify the enhanced management team put in place by the organizational changes discussed above.

As a separato issue, we have reflected the inspection frequency identified by License Condition Nc, 11 into this License Admondment Request. We request therefore, the you remove this condition from License SNM-33.

The application fee for this amendment request is being transmitted under l

separato cover.

Ten (10) copies of the Enclosure are included for your uso.
