1. INTRODUCTION AND

SUMMARY

1.1 Introduction By letters dated June 24 and August 25, 2016, OPPD notified the NRC of its intention to permanently cease power operations at Fort Calhoun Station (FCS) pursuant to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i). On October 24, 2016, OPPD permanently ceased power operations at FCS (References 1-13, 1-14).

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(ii), OPPD certified to the NRC that as of November 13, 2016, all fuel had been permanently removed from the FCS reactor vessel and had been placed into the spent fuel pool. The letter acknowledged that upon docketing the certifications for permanent cessation of operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, the 10 CFR Part 50 license no longer authorized operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel in the reactor vessel (Reference 1-15).

By letter from NRC (J. Kim) to OPPD (M. Fisher) Fort Calhoun Station, Unit 1 -

Issuance of Amendment Re: Revised Technical Specifications to Align to Those Requirements for Decommissioning Dated March 6, 2018 (NRC-18-011), OPPD was granted Permanently Defueled Technical Specifications (PDTS). PDTS removed all sections of operating plant TS that no longer apply during the decommissioning process.

Based on the above, the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) is being updated as the Defueled Safety Analysis Report, or DSAR. Prior to permanent removal of fuel, the revised Final Safety Analysis Report, referred to as USAR, was submitted as required under 10 CFR Part 50.71(e), effective July 22, 1980. The original Final Safety Analysis Report was submitted in support of the application by the Omaha Public Power District, (OPPD), for a license pursuant to Section 104b of the Atomic Energy Act, 1954, to operate the Fort Calhoun Station Unit No. 1, (AEC Docket 50-285, Construction Permit CPPR-41).

This report provided pertinent technical information in accordance with the requirements set forth under Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, (10 CFR Part 50) and information and analyses submitted to the NRC or prepared as a result of NRC requirements. The plant began commercial operation on September 26, 1973. Prior to decommissioning, the nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) was of the pressurized water type. It was similar in design to several facilities which began operation or were under review by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission at the time the plant was pursuing its original operating license. A license was requested to operate the facility at power levels up to and including 1420 core thermal megawatts (MWt) which corresponded to a turbine-generator output of 481 MWe. The license was then amended to allow operation at power levels up to and including 1500 core thermal megawatts (MWt) which corresponded to a turbine-generator output of nominal 533.7 MWe at 0.90 power factor.
