NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


All U.S. Pressurized Water Reactors; Issuance of Director's 
Decision Under 10 CFR 2.206

    Notice is hereby given that the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor 
Regulation, has taken action with regard to a Petition for action under 
10 CFR 2.206 received from John Willis of Greenpeace International with 
respect to all pressurized water reactors (PWRs) in the United States. 
The Petitioner requested that all U.S. PWRs be examined for cracks in 
control rod drive mechanism (CRDM) vessel head penetrations (VHP) and 
that any reactors found containing VHP cracking be shut down, repaired, 
and ``relicensed'' before restarting.
    The Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has 
determined to deny the Petition. The reasons for this denial are 
explained in the ``Director's Decision under 10 CFR 2.296,'' (DD-95-02) 
which is available for public inspection in the Commission's Public 
Document Room, Gelman Building, 2120 L St., N.W., Washington, DC 20037. 
A copy of this decision will be filed with the Secretary for the 
Commission's review in accordance with 10 CFR 2.206(c) of the 
Commission's regulations. As provided by this regulation, the decision 
will constitute the final action of the Commission 25 days after the 
date of issuance of the decision unless the Commission on its own 
motion institutes a review of the decision within that time.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 26th day of January, 1995.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
William T. Russell,
Director, Office on Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
