SUBJECT:
REVISION OF SCHEDULE FOR THE CONDUCT OF ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW OF THE LIMERICK GENERATING STATION, LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION (TAC NOS. ME7346 AND ME7347)
Dear Mr. Gallagher:
By letter dated June 22, 2011, Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) submitted an application pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 54 (1 0 CFR Part 54), to renew Operating Licenses NPF-39 and NPF-85 for Limerick Generating Station, Units 1 and 2 (LGS), for review by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Staff). This letter is to inform you about a schedule change in the LGS license renewal review.
On October 31, 2013, the Commission issued order CLI-13-07 directing the Staff to review the significance of any new severe accident mitigation alternatives-related information in its environmental review of Exelon's license renewal application, including the information presented in the Natural Resources Defense Council's waiver petition, and to discuss its review in the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (FSEIS). The Staff requires additional time to complete the Commission's directive in CLI-13-07.
Enclosed is the revised schedule for review of the LGS license renewal application. The schedule has been updated to reflect a change in the date for the issuance of the FSEIS.
If you have any questions on the revised schedule, please contact Leslie Perkins by telephone at 301-415-2375 or by e-mail at leslie.perkins@nrc.gov.
