Long Island Lighting Company, et al., is the holder of Construction Permits Nos. CPPR-175 and CPPR-176 which authorize construction of the Jamesport Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2,.in Suffolk County, New York. The permits, as issued, were due to expire on July 31, 1990 and July 31, 1992, respectively.
II.
An Atomic Safety and Licensing Board authorized the Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation to issue construction permits for the twin-unit Jamesport nuclear facility and he did so on January 4,1979. New York law, however, requires i
public utilities to obtain certificates from the State's Board on Electric Generation Siting and the Environment before commencing construction. While appeals from the Licensing Boards's decisions were pending, the State Siting Board announced orally in January 1980 that it would approve only a single coal-fired plant at the Jamesport site and canfirmed that ruling in writing on September 8,1980.
