Organization Change Gentlemen:

My letter dated August 7,1984, forwarded the Dismantling Plan for the CX-10 Reactor, dated July,1984. Since that time there has been a re- i organization at the Lynchburg Research Center that affects the dis- l mantling plan.

A revised Section 8 of the plan is attached. Changes are indicated by '

vertical lines in the right-hand margin.
