- 1) identification of all information, findings, and recommendations which indicate differences between the DOE site-wide Safety Analysis Report and the USEC Application for Certification;
- 2) an evaluation of the effects of those differences on the safety of workers, and off-site members of the public; and
- 3) proposed modifications to the compliance certificate and/or facility, including proposed modifications to the Application SAR and Technical Safety Requirements (TSRs)
- 4) proposed resolution of matters contained in the DOE-approved site-wide Safety Analysis Report (SAR) not incorporated by USEC in its request for amendment of their Application for Certification.
' Contrary to the above, on August 17,1997, USEC did not submit an amendment to the certification application which includes: 1) identification of all information, findings, and recommendations indicating differences between the DOE site-wide Safety Analysis Report and the USEC Application for Certification; 2) an evaluation of the effects of those differences on the safety of workers, and off-site members of the public; 3) proposed modifications to the compliance certificate and/or facility, including proposed modifications to the Application SAR and TSRs; and 4) proposed resolution of matters contained in the DOE-approved site wide SAR not incorporated by USEC in its request for amendment.
