SUBJECT:

TRANSMITTAL AND EXPLANATION OF AMENDMENT TO LICENSE NO. SNM-1877

'(REFERENCE CONTROL NO.-257943 DOCKET NO. 070-02934)

Colonel Uyesugi:

Enclosed please find Amendment No.10 to your NRC materials license.- Changes to the license are printed in BOLD typeface.

Please review the enclosed document carefully and be sure that you understand all conditions.

If there are any errors or questions, please notify this office (AlTN: Ms. Diane Hoim at (404) 562-4723) so that we can provide appropriate corrections-and answers.

Note that =as part of this amendment, in accordance with 10 CFR 30.36.

effective February 15, 1996, the expiration date of_ your license has been

. extended by a period of five years.

Your new ex)1 ration date is stated in

- Item 4 of the license.

Unless your license has Jeen terminated, you must-conduct your program involving byproduct materials in accordance with the-conditions of your NRC license, representations made in your license application, and NRC regulations.

In particular, note that you must:

1.

Operate in accordance with NRC regulations 10 CFR 19. " Notice Instructions and Reports to Workers: Inspections and Investigations:"

10 CFR 20. " Standards'for Protection Against Radiation"; and other

. applicable regulations.

2.

Notify NRC, in writing, within 30 days:

a.

when-an authorized user or Radiation Safety Officer permanently discontinues performance of duties under the license or has a name change; or b.

When the licensee's mailing address changes (no fee is required if the. location of byproduct material remains the same).

I.

L L_

Department of the Army 2

~

3.

In accordance with 10 CFR 30.36(d) and/or license condition, notify NRC.

promptly, in writing, and request amendment or termination of the license.

a.

when you decide to terminate all activities involving materials authorized under the license: or b.

when you decide to terminate licensed activities in a separate building or outdoor area identified on your license.

4.

Request and obtain a license amendment before you:

a.

change Radiation Safety Officer; b.

order byproduct material in excess of the amount. or a different radionuclides or form other than authorized on the license:

c.

add to or change the areas of use or address (or addresses) of use identified in the license application or on the license.

d.

change ownership of your organization.

5.

-Submit a complete renewal application with proper fee or termination request at least 30 days before the expiration date of your license.

You will receive a reminder notice approximately 90 days before the expiration date.

Possession of byproduct material after your license expires is a violation of NRC regulations.

Transfer of licensed materials must be consistent with 10 CFR 30.41, 40.51, or 70.42 as applicable. A license will not normally be renewed. exce)t on a case-by-case basis, in instances where licensed material las never been possessed or used.

In addition. please note that NRC Form 313 requires the applicant, by his/her signature, to verify that the applicant understands that all statements contained in the application are true and correct to the best of the applicant's knowledge. The signature on the application should be the licensee or certifying official rather than a consultant.

.You will be periodically inspected by NRC.

Failure to conduct your program in accordance with NRC regulations. 1:.ense conditions and representations made in your license application and supplemental correspondence with NRC will result in enforcement action against you. This could include issuance of a Notice of Violation or imposition of a Civil Penalty, or an order suspending, modifying or revoking your license as specified in the " General Statement of Policy and procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions." NUREG-1600 (7/95).

Since serious consequences to employees and the public can result from failure to comply with NRC requirements, prompt and vigorous enforcement action will be taken against those who do not achieve the necessary attention to detail and standard of compliance expected of licensees.
