NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-252; NRC-2009-0557]


University of New Mexico AGN-201M Reactor Notice of Issuance of 
Renewed Facility Operating License No. R-102

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued renewed 
Facility Operating License No. R-102, held by the University of New 
Mexico (the licensee), which authorizes continued operation of the 
University of New Mexico AGN-201M Reactor (UNMR), located in 
Albuquerque, Bernalillo County, New Mexico. The UNMR is a solid 
homogeneous core research reactor licensed to operate at a steady-state 
power level of 5 watts thermal power. Renewed Facility Operating 
License No. R-102 will expire at midnight 20 years from its date of 
issuance.
    The renewed license complies with the standards and requirements of 
the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the 
Commission's rules and regulations. The Commission has made appropriate 
findings as required by the Act and the Commission's regulations in 
Title 10, Chapter 1, ``Nuclear Regulatory Commission,'' of the Code of 
Federal Regulations (10 CFR), and sets forth those findings in the 
renewed license. The agency afforded an opportunity for hearing in the 
Notice of Opportunity for Hearing published in the Federal Register on 
December 21, 2009 (74 FR 67927). The NRC received no request for a 
hearing or petition for leave to intervene following the notice.
    The NRC staff prepared a safety evaluation report for the renewal 
of Facility License No. R-102 and concluded, based on that evaluation, 
that the licensee can continue to operate the facility without 
endangering the health and safety of the public. The NRC staff also 
prepared an Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant 
Impact for license renewal, noticed in the Federal Register on May 14, 
2010 (75 FR 27372), and concluded that renewal of the license will not 
have a significant impact on the quality of the human environment.
    For details with respect to the application for renewal, see the 
licensee's letter dated February 21, 2007 (Agencywide Document Access 
and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML092170540), as 
supplemented by letters dated November 9, 2009 (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML093410385), February 17, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML100501007), and 
November 19, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML103330190). Documents may be 
examined, and/or copied for a fee, at the NRC's Public Document Room 
(PDR), located at One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike (first 
floor), Rockville, Maryland. Publicly available records will be 
accessible electronically from the Agencywide Documents Access and 
Management System (ADAMS) Public Electronic Reading Room on the NRC Web

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 22nd day of February, 2011.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
