We have reviewed the decommissioning plan for the Richland l fuel fabrication facilities, transmitted by your letter of June 16, l

1978. The plan does not include sufficient details for us to con-I clude that adequate technical and financial provisions have been l 1

made. To aid you in providing us changes in the plan to incorporate l a sufficient level of detail, we are attaching a more specific list of the information desired. We request that the additional informa- i tion, including a separate financial assurance statement, be p ovided to us within sixty days.

Sincerely, ,

, {u..v/ed Leland C. Rouse, Chief
