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.
