Library, 123 Broad Street, Middletown, Connecticut.

Commission for the Commission's review. As provided for by 10 CFR 
2.206(c), the decision will constitute the final action of the 
Commission 25 days after issuance, unless the Commission, on its own 
motion, institutes a review of the decision within that time.

    Dated at Rockville, MD, this 16th day of November, 1998.
