Dear Ms. Shults: 

Per the September 15, 2015, e-mail from Beth Shelton of your staff, to Kathleen Schneider, an 

error was identified on the State Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet issued with our April 30, 

2014, letter. We have corrected the entry for RATS ID 2003-1 from a proposed regulation to a 

legal binding requirement that had been previously corrected in association with our August 18, 

2010, review letter. We have attached the revision to your SRS sheet. This letter, including the 

SRS Data Sheet, will be posted on the Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards 

website: http://nrc-stp.ornl.gov/rulemaking.html. 

If you have any questions regarding the revision, please contact me at (817) 200-1151
