DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


Prototype Spent Nuclear Fuel Dry Transfer System

AGENCY: Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management, DOE.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: On July 14, 1995, the U.S. Department of Energy published a 
Federal Register Notice entitled ``Notice of Prototype Spent Nuclear 
Fuel Dry Transfer System Project'' (60 FR 36267). That notice invited 
letters of interest from electric utilities and other public and 
private entities interested in participating with DOE in a cooperative 
project for prototype fabrication, demonstration and/or licensing of a 
spent nuclear fuel dry transfer system currently being designed under a 
Cooperative Agreement between DOE and the Electric Power Research 
Institute (EPRI).
    The Department of Energy hereby announces that the due date for 
letters of interest in response to that notice has been extended to 
September 22, 1995.

DATES: Letters of interest must be received no later than September 22, 
1995.

ADDRESSES: Letters of interest should be sent to the U.S. Department of 
Energy, Attn: Michelle Miskinis, HR-561.21, 1615 M Street NW., 
Washington, DC 20036.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michelle Miskinis, (202) 634-4413.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DOE/EPRI design consists of portable 
spent nuclear fuel dry transfer equipment which operates in a shielded 
facility to safely transfer spent nuclear fuel between casks or 
canister based systems. This system has potential applications at 
utility and Federal sites. Further details regarding the dry transfer 
system are included in the previous Federal Register Notice (60 FR 
36267). Letters of interest must contain the information specified in 
that notice.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on August 28, 1995.
