This updated 2009 version of our SAR incorporated the information from the conversion SAR and the startup of the new LEU reactor core. On November 13, 2009 the USNRC submitted a Request for Additional Information (RAI) as a part of the review process. This request included four questions related to Chapter 15 - Financial Qualifications, of the NSC's SAR submittal. On August 30 and December 9, 2010 the NSC submitted responses to these four financial questions. On December 5, 2013 the USNRC submitted a RAI asking that the information in the answers to the four financial questions be updated. Attached is our reply to these four financial questions. If you have any questions, please contact Jerry Newhouse at 979-845-7551. I declare under penalty of perjuy that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on February 3, 2014.
