" ' " +ies tm.c;ssion (Sebring) as a proposed amendment would delete Sebrit.s participating owner of CR-3 and licensee under this license, since FPC will purchase the 0.4473 per:ent ownership share owned by Sebring.
FPC has informed us that this transfer is expected to be completed by mid-March 1992.
2.0 EVALVAT103 FPC presently owns 90% of CR-3.
Portions of the remaining 10% are owned by 11 municipalities and cooperatives, including Sebring.
FPC and Sebring have entered into an agreement under which FPC would purchase the 0.4473 percent share owned by Sebring, which increases FPC's ownership share to 30.4473 percent.
FPC notes that its present funfing of decommissioning costs is sufficiently in excess of minimum requirements as determined uy use of the formula in 10 CFR 50.75(c)(1), and that it covers the increase resulting from its increased canership share. We find this conclusion acceptable.
The proposed change to the license does not involve a change in the safety analysis, the Technical Specifications or day-to-day operation of the facility. Based on FPC's operation of CR-3 to date and the fact that the transaction involves the transfer of a small ownership share between two participants in the facility, the staff has determined that the proposed license amendmant is acceptable. We have further determined that FPC remains qualified to be a holder of Facility Operating License No. OPR-72 ancl that the transfer of license rights is otherwise consistent with applicable provisions of law, regulations, and others issued by the Commission, pursuant to 10 CFR f.0.80(a).
3.0 SJATE (9NSULTAT10N Based upon the written notice of the proposed amendment, the Florida State
-official had no comments.
