'aATERFORD STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNIT NO. 3 00CXET NO. 50-382 ORDER EXTENDING CONSTRUCTION C0fPLETION DATE Louisiana Power & Light Company is the holder of Construction Permit t;o.
CPFR-103 issued by the Atemic Energy Ccenission* cn Nevecber 14, 1974 for the construction of the Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit No. 3 presently under construction at the company's site in St. Charles Parish, Louisiana.
By letter dated June 23, 1977, Louisiana Power and Light Company filed a request for an extension of the latest construction completion date for the 13cility f rom Decenber 31, 1979 to August 1,1982.
In response to our letter dated February 23, 1978, the applicant filed additional information on September 5, 1978 to j ustify the request. The extension was requested because construction has been delayed due to (1) delay in receipt of the construction permi; due primarily to the antitrust review; (2 ) engineering development; (3 ) accitional quality assurance requirements; (4) lower than expected productivity of construc-tion subcontractors; and (5) tempcrary reductions in construction work force.
This action involves no significant hazards consideration; good cause has been shown for the delay; and the extension is for a reasonable period, the bases for which are set forth in the staff evaluation dated July 19, 1979. The pre p-aration of an environmental impact statenent for this particular action is not warranted
- Ef fective January 20, 1975, the Atomic Energy Commission became the ibclear Regulatory Commission and permits in effect on that day continued under the authority of the tuclear Regulatory Commission.
