UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS-LOWELL - U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION SECURITY-RELATED INSPECTION REPORT NO. 05000223/2018-410

Dear Dr. Chowdhury:

From July 23-26, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) conducted a security inspection at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell Research Reactor facility. The inspection included a review of activities authorized for your facility. Our report presents the results of that inspection.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations, as well as compliance with the conditions of your license. The inspector reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of non-compliance with the NRC requirements were identified. No response to this letter is required.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 2.390, Public inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRCs document system (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room). However, because of the security-related information contained in the inspection report and in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d), a copy of the report will not be available for public inspection. Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, please contact Michael Takacs at 301-415-2042 or by electronic mail at Michael.Takacs@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
