NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. 50-309, 50-285, 50-317, 50-318, 50-336, 50-335; License 
Nos. DPR-36, DPR-40, DPR-53, DPR-69, DPR-65, DPR-67]

Power District (Fort Calhoun 1); Baltimore Gas and Electric Company 
(Calvert Cliffs 1 and 2); Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (Millstone 
2); Florida Power and Light Company (St. Lucie 1); Receipt of Petition 
for Director's Decision Under 10 CFR 2.206

    Notice is hereby given that by a Petition dated May 2, 1995, John 
F. Doherty requests that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) take 
immediate action to shut down six pressurized-water reactors and 
inspect the steam generator tubes at those reactors using the Point 
Plus Probe system.
    As the basis for this request, the Petitioner states that an 
inspection at the Maine Yankee plant using the Point Plus Probe system 
revealed that the steam generator tubes are on the verge of rupturing. 
He, therefore, asks that Maine Yankee, along with the other plants he 
has identified as being manufactured by the same company and of similar 
operating age, be immediately shut down. The Petitioner also asks that 
all the steam generator tubes at all the identified plants be inspected 
immediately.
    The Petition is being treated pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206 of the 
Commission's regulations. It has been referred to the Director of the 
Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. As provided by Section 2.206, 
appropriate action will be taken 

[[Page 35241]]
on this Petition within a reasonable time. By letter dated June 28, 
1995, the Director denied the Petitioner's request for immediate 
shutdown and inspection of the six identified reactors.
    A copy of the Petition is available for inspection at the 
Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, 
Washington, DC.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 28th day of June, 1995.

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