NRC Generic Letter 77-05, Nonconformity of Addresses of Items Directed to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation

text

December 2, 1977

All Power Reactor Licensees

Gentlemen:

In recent months we have observed that some NRC licensees are using a variety of addresses for items of correspondence directed to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. This nonconformity has the potential for causing administrative delays in the handling and disposition of incoming correspondence and therefore the processing of any licensing action indicated.

Your attention is invited to 10 CFR 50.30(a) which states, in part: "Each application for a license, including whenever appropriate a construction permit, or amendment thereof, should be filed, for a nuclear reactor, testing facility or other utilization facility, with the Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555". Part 50.4 requires the same address for communications and reports concerning Part 50 regulations unless otherwise specified. Regulatory Guide 10.1 "Compilation of Reporting Requirements for Persons Subject to NRC Regulations" specifies addresses and desired number of copies for most required reports other than those identified in 10 CFR 50.30(a).

It is hereby requested that all of your future correspondence directed to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation and its component be addressed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.30(a), or as specified in the Regulatory Guide.

Your cooperation in this matter is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Karl R. Goller, Assistant Director for Operating Reactors Division of Operating Reactors
