ORDER It appears from an examination of the Licensing Board's April 19, 1988 initial decision in this operating license amendment proceeding that that Board placed consider &ble reliance upon two commitments by the applicant. First, the applicant has undertaken to establish surveillance programs that will (1) evaluate Boraflex specimens in both Regions 1 and 2 of the spent fuel pool for physical and nuclear characteristics (including determination of uniformity of boron distribution and neutron attenuation measurements) ;

and (2) detect by means of "blackness testing" any spatial distribution anomalies in the full-length Boraflex panels.

Second, the applicant has agreed that it will not store any fuel with an enrichment in U-235 greater than 4.1 weight percent prior to completion of the next surveillance undertaking (indicated to be now scheduled for December 1989).

ADOCK 050 g 1-gDR

./G-2 In the circumstances, a question arises whether the Licensing Board should have imposed license conditions embracing those commitments. The parties are invited to submit their views on that question in the form of memoranda to be filed and served no later than July 15, 1988.

It is so ORDERED.
