Subject:
GEH VNC Notification of Change in Operator Status
Reference:
- 1) Nuclear Test Reactor (NTR), NRC License R-33, Docket 50-73
Dear Sir or Madam:
In accordance with 10 CFR 50.74, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas, LLC (GEH) hereby provides notification of changes in a licensed operator status for the NTR (Reference 1 ).
On December 21, 2023, NTR permanently ceased reactor operations in preparation for NRC license transfers. On February 28, 2024, the NRC issued Amendment 26 to Facility Operating License No R-33 authorizing possession-only of the reactor and fuel.
The updated Technical Specifications replace the requirement for NRG-licensed reactor operators with certified fuel handlers. As a result, on March 28, 2024 the individuals holding the three current NTR reactor operator licenses listed below were permanently reassigned.
License No.
SOP-70551-2 SOP-502514 SOP-502515 Docket Number 55-70888 55-73531 55-73532 If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me.
Sincerely, t~rn1~
