Dear Ms. Hall:


Thank you for your letter of February 14, 1996, responding to our review


of the Oregon radiation control program (RCP). The information provided


in your letter directly responded to program review findings and addressed 


our comments and recommendations. Although you responded promptly and


appropriately to comments and recommendations in your letter dated


December 26, 1995, which documented the results of our 1995 review, we do


not plan to close any of these items until the results of the upcoming


follow-up review scheduled for July 8-12, 1996, have been obtained. We


appreciate the prompt actions that you have taken to improve the Oregon RCP,


especially the comprehensive action plan with milestones, and management


feedback. We also thank you for the voluntary quarterly progress reports that


you are supplying to NRC. Based on these progress reports and your response


to our letter, we feel that the Oregon RCP is well on its way back to a fully


adequate and compatible program.


Thank you for your continued support of the Oregon program. If you have any


questions at this time, please feel free to contact me at 301-415-3340, or


Jack Hornor, our Regional State Agreements Officer, at 510-975-0224. 


Sincerely,


Richard L. Bangart, Director
