NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-213, License No. DPR-61]


Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company; Receipt of Petition for 
Director's Decision Under 10 CFR 2.206

    Notice is hereby given that by petition dated March 13, 1998, 
Citizens Awareness Network Inc., has requested that the U.S. Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission (NRC) take action with regard to the Haddam Neck 
plant. Petitioner requests that NRC immediately suspend the licensee's 
operating license.
    As the basis for this request, the petitioner states that the 
licensee has failed to adequately exercise radiological controls. The 
petitioner further states that the licensee's proposal to cool the 
spent fuel pool by ventilating the spent fuel storage building with 
ambient air through doors and roof hatches, in the event that the new 
spent fuel pool cooling system is unavailable, would constitute an 
unmonitored and unplanned release of radiation into the environment.
    The request is being treated pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206 of the 
Commission's regulations. The request has been referred to the Director 
of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. As provided by Section 
2.206, appropriate action will be taken on this petition within a 
reasonable time. A copy of this petition is available for inspection at 
the Commission's Public Document Room at 2120 L Street, NW., 
Washington, DC 20555-0001.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 22nd day of April 1998.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Samuel J. Collins,
Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
