v Subsequently, in conformance with Commission regulations, an operating-b license antitrust review was conducted for GGNS-1.
In the procers of its L
- review, the Staff received allegations that MP&L was not implementing the L
antitrust license conditions imposed during the construction permit review. A I
- Notice of Violation was issued to t1P&L on May 28, 1980, citing MP&L with non-compliance with specific antitrust license conditions. After extensive negotiations, it became apparent to the Staff that a settlement agreement between MP&L and the complairing parties would be consummated. As a result of this agreement, Staff concluded its operating licerse antitrust review of GGNS-1 on Octo nt 9. 1981, advising that no significant antitrust changes had-occurred since the construction permit review.
l MP&L's proposed amendments dated September 2, 1986 sought the transfer of j
operating and construction responsibilities for Grand Gulf-from MP&L to SERI.
As indicated supra, this responsibility has since been delegated to E01. The l
newly formed E01, a wholly owned subsidiary of Entergy Corporation (which until May 19, 1989, was known as Middle South Utilitics, Inc.), will operate Grand Gulf. Power generated at Grand Gulf will continue to be distributed to each of
.i the operating subsidiaries of Entergy Corporation, including MP&L. The amend-ments issued ir, December 1989 duling with E01, do not deal with the-marketing l
of power <from GGNS-1 or GGNS-2, nor do they modify the amount of power that MP&L l
will receive from the Grand Gulf facility ar make any changes that will 7
mitigate MP&L's existirg market power in western tiississippi.
The MP&L antitrust license conditions have been in effect since the B
issuance of the Grand Gulf construction permits. These license conditions were
- designed to prohibit MP&L from using the pocer and energy produced by 5
l w
p i
. L direct result of t'r.ntitrust license conditions attached to the Grand Gulf L
licenses. The elimination of these conditions, as requested by the proposed i.
amendments, may obviate any incentive for MP&L to continue these procompetitive-practices in the future.- Indeed, the Staff has received inquiries and comments expressing opposition to MP&L's request to delete the antitrust conditions from the Grand Gulf licenses.
y
- " the reasons stated above, the Staff denies the portion of the amen cent requests dated September 2, 1986 which seek to remove MP&L from the p
Grand Gulf licenses and to delete the antitrust license conditions now a part of the Grand Gulf licenses. The Licensee was notified of the Commission's denial'of this request by. letter dated May 15, 1990 and a copy of this Notice I
is being forwarded to the Department of Justice for its review.
'The Licensee may demand a hearing with respect to the denial described above within 30 days of the initial publication of this Notice in the FEDERAL REGISTER.
In the event a hearing is requested, any person whose interest may be affected by this proceeding may file a written petition for-leave to intervene within 30 days of the initial publication of the notice of hearing in the FEDERAL REGISTER. A request for a hearing or petition for leave to intervene shall be filed in accordance with the Commission's " Rules of Practice for Domestic Licensing Proceedings" in 10 CFR Part 2.
Interested persons should consult a current copy of 10 CFR Section 2.7.14 which is available at the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, i,
