NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

In the Matter of All Reactor Licensees With Installed Thermo-Lag 
330-1 Fire Barrier Material Receipt of Petition for Director's Decision 
Under 10 CFR 2.206

    Notice is hereby given that by postcard dated November 14, 1994, 
Mr. Bob DeBolt requests that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 
(NRC) take action with regard to the use of Thermo-Lag by all reactor 
licensees.
    The Petitioner requests shutdown of all reactors in which Thermo-
Lag is used until it has been removed and replaced. As the basis for 
this request, the Petitioner states that Thermo-Lag fails to meet NRC 
regulations concerning combustibility and that the manufacturer of 
Thermo-Lag was indicted for defrauding the Government and the 
utilities.
    The Petition is being treated pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206 of the 
Commission's regulations and has been referred to the Director of the 
Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. As provided by 10 CFR 2.206, 
appropriate action will be taken on this Petition within a reasonable 
time. By letter dated January 19, 1995, the Director denied the request 
for immediate suspension of the operating licenses of all reactors in 
which Thermo-Lag is used.
    A copy of the Petition and the Director's letter are available for 
inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room at 2120 L Street, 
NW, Washington, DC.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 19th day of January 1995.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Dennis M. Crutchfield,
Acting Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
