UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 June 28, 2016 Vice President, Operations Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc.
Indian Point Energy Center 450 Broadway, GSB P.O. Box 249 Buchanan, NY 10511-0249
SUBJECT:
SCHEDULE REVISION FOR THE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW OF THE INDIAN POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING UNIT NOS. 2 AND 3 LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION (CAC NOS. MD5411 AND MD5412)
Dear Sir or Madam:
By letter dated April 23, 2007, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (Entergy), submitted an application and associated environmental report pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 51 and 10 CFR Part 54, to renew the operating licenses for Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 2 and 3 (IP2 and IP3), for review by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). The NRC staff documented its findings related to the environmental review of Entergys license renewal application in Supplement 38 to NUREG-1437, Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants: Regarding Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 2 and 3 (FSEIS), which was issued in December 2010. In June 2013, NRC staff issued the first supplement to the FSEIS to document its review of additional information identified subsequent to the issuance of the 2010 FSEIS. In December 2015, the NRC staff issued the draft second supplement to the FSEIS for public comment. The public comment period for the draft FSEIS supplement closed on March 4, 2016. Based on a review of information provided during the public comment period, the NRC staff has determined that it requires additional time to address the issues raised in public comments. Enclosed is the revised schedule for issuance of the second supplement to the FSEIS.
In addition to the issues being evaluated in the second FSEIS supplement, the Commission directed the NRC staff in Order CLI-16-07 to perform additional analyses related to the IP2 and IP3 severe accident mitigation alternative analysis. The NRC staff will address these matters in a future FSEIS supplement.
If you have any questions regarding the revised schedule for the IP2 and IP3 license renewal environmental review, please contact Michael Wentzel, at 301-415-6459 or by e-mail at michael.wentzel@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Jane E. Marshall, Acting Director Division of License Renewal Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket Nos. 50-247 and 50-286
