NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Docket No. 50-289
GPU Nuclear Corp.; Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1;
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 Mr. Robert Gary (Petitioner), on behalf of
the Pennsylvania Institute for Clean Air (PICA), dated July 10, 1992,
regarding the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (TMI-1).
The Petitioner alleged a number of deficiencies with offsite
emergency planning for Three Mile Island that, in the Petitioner's
view, rendered evacuation plans ``essentially non-operational.''
Petitioner requested that, upon verification by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) of these deficiencies, the Commission order
the ``power down'' of TMI-1 and not permit power operations until the
discrepancies are corrected and a valid, workable emergency evacuation
plan is in place. The notice of Receipt of Petition for Director's
Decision under 10 CFR 2.206 was published in the Federal Register on
August 13, 1992 (57 FR 36415).
The Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has denied
the Petition. The reasons for this denial are explained in the
``Director's Decision Under 10 CFR 2.206'' (DD-94-03), which is
available for public inspection at the Commission's Public Document
room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC 20555,
and at the Local Public Document room for TMI-1 located in the
Government Publications Section, State Library of Pennsylvania, Walnut
Street and Commonwealth Avenue, Box 1601, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
17105.
A copy of the Director's Decision will be filed with the Secretary
of the Commission to review in accordance with 10 CFR 2.206(c). As
provided in this regulation, the Decision will constitute the final
action of the Commission 25 days after the date of the 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 31st day of March 1994.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
William T. Russell,
Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
