SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Discussion

    The NRC has issued renewed Facility Operating License No. R-87, 
held by the licensee, which authorizes continued operation of the 
Purdue University Research Reactor, located on the campus of Purdue 
University, in the city of West Lafayette, Tippecanoe County, Indiana. 
The PUR-1 is a heterogeneous pool-type, nuclear research reactor that 
uses Materials Testing Reactor plate type fuel. The PUR-1 is licensed 
to operate at a steady-state power level of 12 kilowatts thermal 
(kW(t)). The renewed Facility Operating License No. R-87 will expire 20 
years from its date of issuance.
    The renewed facility operating 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 chapter I of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 
(10 CFR), and sets forth those findings in the renewed facility 
operating license. The NRC afforded an opportunity for hearing in the 
Notice of Opportunity for Hearing published in the Federal Register on 
November 3, 2011 (76 FR 68225). 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 Operating License No. R-87 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 asessment and finding of no significant 
impact for the renewal of the facility operating license, noticed in 
the Federal Register on October 27, 2016 (81 FR 74822), and concluded 
that renewal of the facility operating license will not have a 
significant impact on the quality of the human environment.
