DRAFT PROPOSAL FR0:1 ILLINOIS FOR SECTION 274b AGREE!'Elii Illinois is proceeding towards a Section 274b Agreenent with !!RC. The State's target date for the Agreement to become effective is January 1, 1987.

The State prepared an initial draft program narrative and proposed regulations last surner and, with your staff's assistance, OSP provided comnents to Illinois on liovember 15 and M U35. Since then, Illinois has moved their regulations through the adt.ption process, iiinor changes to the proposed regulations have been made to accomodata Illinois rulemaking requirements. These were made in consultati.on with OGC and >

OSP staffs. Illinois has made the necessary changes to the regulations to enable an NRC staff fimling of com,atibility for the regulations.

. Minor amendments to the State statutes affecting the program were enacted by the legislature and signed by the Governor. These have been reviewed by OGC and OSP ' staffs and found to te acceptable. Lastly, the proposed agreement document has been revised and a review by OGC and OSF staffs has found it to be acceptable.

l Illinois staff have now completed a redraft of their program narrativa and submitted it to NRC for coment. The submittal includes the narrativo, pertinent legislation and~ the regulations in their final forn (enclosure 2).

The femal request for N Agreenent will be in the fom at a letter fr.n Governor Thompson to Chaiman Zach.

In vlaw of the State's target for an effecti e date of January 1, 1987, the Con rnor's request should 9 submitted by the Governor as early as possfble buc no lator than erout October 1,1986. To enable the State to rzet this milestons, w w?uld, I
