==Dear Ms. Gavutis:== | ==Dear Ms. Gavutis:== | ||
My name is John G. Lamb, the senior project manager for Seabrook Station, Unit 1 (Seabrook) at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). I have been assigned as the Petition Manager | |||
& Education Foundation (C-10) has studied the ASR and C-10 concludes | My name is John G. Lamb, the senior project | ||
ML041770328). The 2.206 process provides a mechanism for any member of the public to request enforcement action against NRC licensees. | |||
Therefore, because you specifically requested in your letter that | manager for Seabrook Station, Unit 1 | ||
(Seabrook) at the U.S. | |||
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). I have been assigned as | |||
the Petition Manager fo r the Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), | |||
Section 2.206, "Request s for action under this subpart," petition you submitted to the NRC on December 22, 2015, regarding your concerns | |||
of the alkali silica reaction (ASR) in the | |||
concrete structures at Seabrook. As the basis for your request, you state that C-10 Research | |||
& Education Foundation (C | |||
-10) has studied the ASR and C-10 concludes t hat its presence at Seabrook is inimical to public health and safety. Section 2.206 of Title 10 of the Code of | |||
Federal Regulations de scribes the petition process - the primary mechanism for the | |||
public to request enforcement action by the NRC in a public process. This process permits 4anyone to petition NRC to take enforcement-type action related to NRC licensees or licensed activities. Depending on the results of its evaluation, NRC could modify, suspend or revoke an NRC-issued license or take any | |||
other appropriate enforcement action to resolve a problem. The NRC staff's guidance | |||
for the disposition of 2.206 petition requests is in Management Directive 8.11, which is publicly available (Agencywide Documents and | |||

The 2.206 process provides a mechanism for | |||
any member of the public to request | |||
enforcement action against NRC licensees. | |||
Therefore, because you specifically requested in your letter that t he NRC take an enforcement action, it was referred to the 2.206 process. C-10 requested that the NRC issue an order to the licensee of the Seabrook requiring | |||
immediate implementati on and enforcement of American Concrete Institute (ACI) 349.3R, | |||
"Evaluation of Existing Nuclear Safety-Related Concrete Structures," | |||
and American Society for Testing & Materials (ASTM) C856-11, | |||

petrographic testing for the mechanical properties of tensile str ength, Poisson's ratio, modulus of elasticity, and compressive strength - specifically for walls of the Containment Building and Spent Fuel Pool at | |||
Seabrook. The 2.206 process is separate from | |||
the allegations process, which affords individuals who raise safety concerns a degree | |||
of protection of their identity. In the 2.206 process, all of the information in your letter will be made public, including your identity. | |||
In addition, in accordance with NRC | |||
Management Directive 8.11, you have the opportunity to address the NRC Petition | |||
Review Board (PRB) to further discuss your petition, either in person at the NRC Headquarters in Rockville, MD, or by telephone | |||
conference. | |||
I would appreciate if you could advise me by January 15, 2016, if you agree to the NRC's | |||
processing your request under the 2.206 process. In addition, please advise me if you | |||
would like to address the PRB. If you would 5like to meet in person, I will need to schedule a formal public meeting at the NRC | |||
Headquarters at least 10 days prior to the | |||
public meeting. If you w ould prefer to address the PRB via phone, I will al so work with you to coordinate a date/time during the upcoming weeks. Thank you, John G.

teleconference. Typically, the NRC le ts the petitioner manage within the petitioner allotted time, who the petitioner has speak and for how much time those petitioners speak.
How much time do you think C-10 needs for the teleconference?

The PRB members may ask any questions needed to clarify the petitioner's request.
So, it is my understanding from the below email that C-10 would like to have a teleconference regarding the C-10 petition, dated December 22, 2015 (ADAMS Accession No. ML16006A002). The purpose of the teleconference is to give C-10 an opportunity to provide any additional explanation or support for the petition before the PRB's initial consideration and recommendation.
- a. The teleconference is not a hearing, nor is it an opportunity for C-10 to question or examine the PRB on the merits or the issues presented in the petition request.
- b. No decisions regarding the merits of the C-10 petition will be made at the teleconference.
- c. Following the teleconference, the PRB will conduct its internal deliberations. The outcome of the internal PRB meeting will be discussed with C-10.
- d. The PRB typically consists of a Chairman, usually a manager at the senior executive service level at the
NRC. It has a Petition Manager and a PRB Coordinator. Other members of the PRB are determined by the NRC staff based on the content of the information in the petition request.
- f. As described in 2.206 on the NRC website, the NRC staff may ask clarifying questions at the teleconference in order to better understand C-10's presentation and to reach a reasoned decision whether to accept or reject the C-10's request for review under the 2.206 process.

For Your Action - 2.206 Petition from C-
10 regarding ASR at Seabrook

Sandra Gavutis, Executive Director C-10 Research & Education Foundation 44 Merrimac Street Newburyport, MA 01950
Dear Ms. Gavutis:
My name is John G. Lamb, the senior project
manager for Seabrook Station, Unit 1
(Seabrook) at the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). I have been assigned as
the Petition Manager fo r the Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
Section 2.206, "Request s for action under this subpart," petition you submitted to the NRC on December 22, 2015, regarding your concerns
of the alkali silica reaction (ASR) in the
concrete structures at Seabrook. As the basis for your request, you state that C-10 Research
& Education Foundation (C
-10) has studied the ASR and C-10 concludes t hat its presence at Seabrook is inimical to public health and safety. Section 2.206 of Title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulations de scribes the petition process - the primary mechanism for the
public to request enforcement action by the NRC in a public process. This process permits 4anyone to petition NRC to take enforcement-type action related to NRC licensees or licensed activities. Depending on the results of its evaluation, NRC could modify, suspend or revoke an NRC-issued license or take any
other appropriate enforcement action to resolve a problem. The NRC staff's guidance
for the disposition of 2.206 petition requests is in Management Directive 8.11, which is publicly available (Agencywide Documents and
Management System (ADAMS) Accession No.
The 2.206 process provides a mechanism for
any member of the public to request
enforcement action against NRC licensees.
Therefore, because you specifically requested in your letter that t he NRC take an enforcement action, it was referred to the 2.206 process. C-10 requested that the NRC issue an order to the licensee of the Seabrook requiring
immediate implementati on and enforcement of American Concrete Institute (ACI) 349.3R,
"Evaluation of Existing Nuclear Safety-Related Concrete Structures,"
and American Society for Testing & Materials (ASTM) C856-11,
"Standard Practice for Petrographic Examination of Hardened Concrete," code standards requiring core sampling, and
petrographic testing for the mechanical properties of tensile str ength, Poisson's ratio, modulus of elasticity, and compressive strength - specifically for walls of the Containment Building and Spent Fuel Pool at
Seabrook. The 2.206 process is separate from
the allegations process, which affords individuals who raise safety concerns a degree
of protection of their identity. In the 2.206 process, all of the information in your letter will be made public, including your identity.
In addition, in accordance with NRC
Management Directive 8.11, you have the opportunity to address the NRC Petition
Review Board (PRB) to further discuss your petition, either in person at the NRC Headquarters in Rockville, MD, or by telephone
conference.
I would appreciate if you could advise me by January 15, 2016, if you agree to the NRC's
processing your request under the 2.206 process. In addition, please advise me if you
would like to address the PRB. If you would 5like to meet in person, I will need to schedule a formal public meeting at the NRC
Headquarters at least 10 days prior to the
public meeting. If you w ould prefer to address the PRB via phone, I will al so work with you to coordinate a date/time during the upcoming weeks. Thank you, John G.
