Notice is hereby given that by petition dated August 22, 2009, Mr. Sherwood Martinelli, the Petitioner, has requested that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) suspend the operating license of any Entergy nuclear power plant with a decommissioning trust fund shortfall, that the NRC take action to ensure that any shortfalls in the decommissioning trust funds be rectified, and that the NRC take certain other actions to ensure the integrity of the decommissioning trust funds.

The NRC is accepting for review, pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206, those concerns identified in the petition associated with Entergys Vermont Yankee and River Bend Nuclear Power Plants. The NRC staffs ongoing review indicates that only the decommissioning trust funds for Entergys Vermont Yankee and River Bend Nuclear Power Plants do not currently meet the funding levels of 10 CFR 50.75, Reporting and recordkeeping for decommissioning

planning. As provided by Section 2.206, appropriate action will be taken on this petition within a reasonable time.
