Dear Mr. Curley:
On August 22, 2013, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) conducted a safety
inspection at the Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) Leslie C. Wilbur Nuclear Reactor Facility
in Worcester, Massachusetts. The inspection was an examination of your licensed activities as
they relate to radiation safety and to compliance with the Commission's regulations and the
license conditions. The inspection consisted of observations by the inspectors, interviews with
WPI and contractor personnel, a review of procedures and records, and acquisition of split
samples. The NRC contracted with Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) to perform
analysis of samples obtained by the inspectors. ORAU provided the results of the sample
analysis in a report, Letter Report for Analytical Results for Two Concrete and Three Soil
Samples Associated with the Worcester Polytechnic Institute, in Worcester, Massachusetts,
dated October 7, 2013, (Agencywide Document Access and Management System (ADAMS)
Accession No. ML13309B020). Additional information in documents provided by WPI dated
August 22, August 26, October 29, and December 6, 2013, were also examined as part of the
inspection. On January 16, 2014, the inspectors held a telephone conference call exit with you
and other members of your staff. The enclosed report presents the results of this inspection.
No health and safety concerns were identified.
The enclosed inspection report will be provided to the NRC Division of Waste Management and
Environmental Protection (DWMEP) Project Manager for WPI for consideration for action on any
request to terminate the WPI license and release the site for unrestricted use. Please note that
this report does not release the site for unrestricted use nor does it terminate the license.
