Dear Sirs:
This is to endorse the July 27th request made' by the Director of the Kansas State University Nuclear Reactor Facility for an individual exemption from' payment of annual fees for our TRIGA Mark 11 Reactor, a teaching and research j
reactor operated by a nonprofit educationalinstitution. The exceptional.
treatment requested is in the public interest and is justified for two reasons.
First, payment of the annual fee, namely, $62,100 for federal fiscal year 1993, would impose severe financial hardship, not only on the Nuclear Engineering Department, but also on.the College of Engineering. The University obtains its operating funds from legislative appropriations and such funds have been declining for a number of years. Payment of the sum in question would virtually guarantee the loss of a faculty position.
Second, the exceptional treatment is also justified on the basis of externalized benefits accorded by operation of the Reactor Facility to other federal licensees, to other universities, and to the general public. Nuclear power plants in Kansas and Nebraska benefit particularly. Tours and demonstrations for-schools and civic organizations are extremely important benefits to the general.
public and are an essential aspect of our university's mission as a land grant _
q institution.
Very sincerely yours, T4Lk.,
Donald E. Rathbone Dean of Engineering
