AUG 181986 Dr. Bennie C. Keel Departmental Consulting Archeologist Department of the Interior National Park Service P.O. Box 37127 Washington, D.C.

20013-7127

Dear Dr. Keel:

This is in response to your June 13, 1986 request to Nunzio J. Palladino, Chairman, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for information needed to prepare the Annual Report to Congress on the Federal Archeology Program. The questionnaire you provided has been completed with the appropriate information on NRC's activities and is enclosed for your use.

The NRC's involvement in historic preservation stems from its licensing responsibilities for production and utilization facilities.

Compliance with historic preservation laws is accomplished by the NRC during its National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) reviews for construction permits and operating licenses of production and utilization facilities.

The NRC does not acquire, maintain or restore any archeological or historic properties identified during the environmental review process. When it is determined that mitigative measures are required, these are undertaken by the applicant / licensee. Arrangements are normally formalized as a condition of the construction permit and as a Memorandum of Agreement with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation and the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHP0). As a permitting agency, the NRC does not incur any direct costs associated with protection or enhancement of archeological and historic resources.
