UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION DOCKET NO. 50-30
~
NOTICE OF CONSIDERATION OF APPLICATION FOR ,
REINSTATEMENT AND RENEWAL OF REACTOR FACILITY LICENSE I l
The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) is considering reinstatement and renewal of Facility License No. TR-3, issued to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to possess-but-not-operate the Plum Brook Reactor located at the Plum Brook Reactor Facility, Lewis Research Center, Plum Brook Station, Sandusky, Ohio.
By amendment dated July 26, 1973, the Plum Brook Test Reactor was issued a license "To-Possess-But-Not-0perate." By letter dated March 27, 1980, as supplemented, NASA requested authorization to dismantle both tne Plum Brook Test Reactor (PBTR) and Plum Brook Mock-Up Reactor (PBMUR) to dispose of the component parts and terminate licenses Nos. TR-3 and R-93.
Following review of the NASA applications, NRC issued an " Order Authorizing Dismantling of Facilities and Disposition of Component Parts," dated May 26, 1981.
By application dated July 26, 1985, NASA requested that NRC rescind the " Order" of May 26, 1981, and reinstate the facilities to a status of "To-Possess-But-0perate." NASA cited budget limitations as the reason for not being able to implement the May 26, 1981 " Order."
The reinstatement and renewal would extend the expiration date of Facility Operating License No. TR-3 for ten years from the date of issuance, in accordance with the licensee's application dated July 26, 1985.
