NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
 

Consolidation of Region V Office With Region IV Office; Transfer 
of Emergency Response Functions and Responsibilities

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: General notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is transferring the 
emergency response functions and responsibilities of the current Region 
V office in Walnut Creek, California, to the Region IV office in 
Arlington, Texas.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 1, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Samuel J. Collins, USNRC, Region IV, 
Arlington, Texas, telephone (817) 860-8183.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of this notice is to announce 
that the NRC is consolidating its Region V office in Walnut Creek, 
California, with the Region IV office in Arlington, Texas. Transition 
planning for this consolidation has established that, effective March 
1, 1994, the emergency response functions and responsibilities of the 
current Region V office will transfer to the Region IV office.
    The NRC Incident Response Plan, as stated in NUREG-0728, Rev. 2, 
will remain unchanged and all response functions and responsibilities 
currently in place in the Region V office will be transferred to the 
RIV office in Arlington, Texas. Licensee notifications for emergency 
response purposes will be unchanged and will be sent to the NRC 
Headquarters Operations Officer at 301-951-0550.
    Sometime shortly after March 1, 1994, the actual realignment of 
organizational structure will occur eliminating Region V and 
establishing an NRC Field Office in Walnut Creek, California, as an 
integral part of the Region IV office in Arlington, Texas. Until the 
formal realignment, the lead for inspection program responsibility 
remains with Region V. Separate notification will be provided when 
Region V is abolished and the Region IV Field Office is established in 
Walnut Creek, California.


    Dated at Arlington, Texas, this 14th day of February 1994.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
John M. Montgomery,
Deputy Regional Administrator.
