Post-Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report (PSDAR), Revision 1: Defueled Offsite Dose Calculations Manual (DODCM); and, Plant Radiologica! Conditions Update (PRCU).

Regarding the PSDAR, DODCM, and PRCU, no NRC staff reviews and approvals are planned or required for these documents. However, we will commence a review of your certified fuel handler training progra:n to support future fuel handling operations, unless you inform us otherwise.

Subsequent to the completion of our reviews, you will be notified of the results.
