In a letter dated October 17, 1996, as supplemented and modified by letter dated December 13, 1996, Illinois Power Company (IP) requested (1) the NRC's consent, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.80, to a proposed transfer of Soyland Power Cooperative's 13.21-percent minority ownership interest in the Clinton Power Station (CPS) to IP, and (2) the NRC's approval of conforming amendments to facility Operating License No. NPF-62 for CPS.
IP currently owns 86.79 percent of the Clinton facility and is the operator of the plant.
Upon completion of the transfer IP will remain the plant operator and will become sole owner of CPS.
IP is a wholly owned subsidiary of Illinova Corporation and will remain so after completion of the transfer. Approval of the transfer was granted by the Commission by Order dated March
, 1997.
