To assist us in the development of the planning assumptions to support our Fiscal Year 2001-02 budget, we corresponded with you on December 18,1998, requesting information regarding
_your schedule to enter into an Agreement with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). In particular, we requested your target dates for submitting a complete draft application package !
. for NRC staff review, and for submitting a formal request for the Agreement from the Governor to the Chairman. You responded to this request in a letter to me dated January 8,1999. We are again asking that you confirm, or update your previous response regarding your planned l schedule to enter into an Agreement.
We consider a draft application package to be complete when NRC is in receipt of all of the following information:
- 1. Draft letter from the Governor to the Chairman making the certifications required by the Atomic Energy Act, and requesting an agreement. ;
- 2. Copies of the State's statutes or legislation authorizing the radiation control program and o assumption of regulatory authority under an agreement.
'i 3. Copies of the State's radiation control regulations.
