SUBJECT:

ZION SOLUTIONS - TERMINATION OF ORDER FOR INTERIM SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY COMPENSATORY MEASURES (EA-02-077) FOR ZION NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2

Dear Mr. Sauger:

On May 23, 2002, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued an order for interim safeguards and security compensatory measures to Exelon Nuclear, the licensee at that time, for Zion Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2. This order applied to decommissioning nuclear power plants with spent fuel in the spent fuel pool. On June 30, 2014, ZionSolutions (ZS) requested that this order be rescinded once all spent fuel has been removed from the spent fuel pool and transferred to the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI). In that request, you acknowledged that, upon termination of the order, the spent fuel pool will no longer be an authorized storage location for spent fuel.

By correspondence dated January 12, 2015, you have reported that all fuel has been removed from the spent fuel pool. The measures imposed by Order EA-02-077 relate to spent fuel in the spent fuel pool. Since there is no longer any fuel in the Zion Nuclear Power Station spent fuel pool, compliance with this order is unnecessary. Accordingly, as provided in Section III of the order, I find that good cause exists to grant your request and hereby rescind the order. ZS shall continue to adhere to the terms and conditions of the Zion Nuclear Power Station license, the ISFSI license, and the Commission's regulations. As a consequence of this action, ZS is no longer authorized to use the Zion Nuclear Power Station spent fuel pool to store spent fuel.

Sincerely,

/RA/
