SECTION 106 REVIEW REQUEST
Dear Mr. Donaldson:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) (Federal Agency) is considering issuance of a renewed Facility Operating License No. R-116 (The Activity), to be held by the University of California Irvine (UCI or the licensee), which would authorize continued operation of the University of California, Irvine Nuclear Reactor Facility (UCINRF), which is a 250 KW research reactor located in Irvine, Orange County, California. The proposed action would renew Facility Operating License No. R-116 for a period of 20 years from the date of issuance of the renewed license.
The research reactor is inside Rowland Hall on the campus of the University of California Irvine, Irvine, Orange County, California. The Irvine Campus of the University of California is located in Orange County, some 40 miles south-east of the center of Los Angeles and is about 4 miles from the Pacific Coast. Situated on slopes at the northern extremity of the San Joaquin Hills, the campus overlooks the Santa Ana basin to the north and the inland end of Newport Bay to the west; higher land of the Hills extends south and east to just over 1000 feet above sea level. The campus has an average elevation of about 100 feet. Rowland Hall has research and teaching laboratories, lecture halls, classrooms, offices and workshops and is located at the North end of Bison Avenue. It is surrounded by similar facilities in the immediate area. Rowland Hall was built in 1967, a period of less than 50 years. The R-116 license was originally issued on November 24, 1969.
The proposed action would allow the research reactor to continue operations as it has been for the past 40 years.

The proposed action will not increase the probability or consequences of accidents. No changes are being made in the types of effluents that may be released off site.
