l ATTN: Gary A. Hildebrandt Director, Quality Assurance 10100 Old Columbia Road Columbia, MD 21048
Dear Mr. Hildebrandt:
l I am responding to your March 25,1999, letter in which you attached a copy of annual fee .
Invoice AM4937-98 ($78,900), for Quality Assurance (QA) Approval Package No. 0496 and requested an adjustment in the fee assessment. l Your letter states: (1) a prorated adjustment of the annual fee should reflect the license status change requested in February of 1998; (2) the NMSS licensing staff agreed the license was revised from 10B(1) " users and fabricators" to 10B(2) " user only"; and (3) the NMSS licensing staff verified that GTS Duratek was not the holder of the certificate since February 1998. For the reasons explained below, a revised invoice has been issued.
10 CFR 174.17(2) of NRC's regulations state the annual fee for a materials license that is downgraded on or after October 1 of a fiscal year is prorated when the application for downgrade is received by the NRC, provided the licensee permanently ceased the stated activities during the specified period. Annual fees for licenses for which applications to downgrade are filed during the period October 1 through March 31 of the fiscal year will be prorated as follows in accordance with 10 CFR 171.17(2) (A):
" Licenses for which applications have been filed to reduce the scope of the license from a higher fee category (ies) to a lower fee category (les) will be assessed one-half the annual fee for the higher fee category (ies) and one-half the annual fee for the lower fee category (ies), and, if applicable, the full annual fee for fee categories not affected by the downgrade."
Your October 28,1998, letter requested a downgrade of the OA. The NMSS licensing staff has informed us that GTS Duratek was not involved in fabrication or design after February 1998. The January 12,1999, Revision No.10 confirms GTS Duratek should have been in
" user only" status. Based on the information provided, the NRC: (1) grants an extension of time to October 28,1998, to file for downgrade for purposes of avoiding the 10B(1) " users and fabricators" fee; (2) acknowledges no activities were performed after February 1998, except for 1
" user only"; and (3) acknowledges QA 0496 was downgraded January 12,1999, to " user only".
Enclosed is revised invoice No. AM4937-98 in the amount of $39,950 ($39,450 =
one-half $78,900 for 10B(1) + $500 = one-half $1,000 for 10B(2)) for Fiscal Year 1998, (October 1,1997, to September 30,1998). Payment should be sent to the address listed on the invoice.
