Model Delegation of Authority to Radiation Safety Officer
Hello Michael,
Thank you for taking time out of your morning to discuss your pending NRC license amendment request. As
we discussed I have provided a record of our conversation that describes the additional information required
for completing the requested amendment.
Please provide your response within 30 days by March 12, 2019. I understand from our conversation that you
have an upcoming plant outage scheduled for near that timeframe. I will plan to check in ahead of time to see if
any adjustments to the requested time frame are needed.
Please feel free to contact me at 630-829-9712 or via email if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Laura Cender
