l.
l Houston Lighting & Power Company; City Public Service Board of San Antonio; Central ;
Power and Light Company (CPL); City of Austin, Texas; and STP Nuclear Operating Company are holders of Facility Operating Licenses Nos. NPF-76 and NPF-80, issued on March 22, 1988, and March 28,1989, respectively. Facility Operating Licenses Nos. NPF-76 and NPF-80 authorize the holders to possess the South Texas Project, Units 1 and 2 (STP), and authorize STP Nuclear Operating Company to use and operate STP in accordance with the procedures ,
and limitations set forth in the operating licenses. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Licenses Nos. NPF-76 and NPF-80 on March 22,1988, and March 28,1989, respectively, pursuant to Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR Part 50). The facility is located in Matagorda County, Texas.

Under cover of a letter dated June 19,1998, CPL submitted an application dated June 16,1998, for consent under 10 CFR 50.80 to allow the indirect transfer of CPL's interest in I

2 STP that would occur in connection with a proposed merger of Central and South West Corporation (CSW, the parent holding company of CPL) and American Electric Power, Inc.
(AEP). Under the proposed merger, CSW would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of AEP, with CPL remaining a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSW. Houston Lighting & Power Company; City Public Service Board of San Antonio; City of Austin, Texas; and STP Nuclear Operating Company are not involved in the merger. The application was supplemented by a letter dated June 23,1998, and enclosures thereto.
CPL and the other current licensees would continue to hold the licenses, and no direct transfer of the licenses would result from the merger. On August 5,1998, a Notice of Consideration of Approval of Application Regarding Proposed Merger was published in the Federal Reaister (63 FR 41876). An Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant impact was published in the Federal Reaister on September 28,1998 (63 FR 51629).
Under 10 CFR 50.80, no license shall be transferred, directly or indirectly, through transfer of control of the license, unless the Commission gives its consent in writing. Upon review of the information contained in the application dated June 16,1998, and enclosures to the letter dated June 23,1998, the NRC staff has determined that the proposed merger will not affect the qualifications of CPL as holder of Facility Operating Licenses Nos. NPF-76 and NPF-80, and that the transfer of control of the licenses, to the extent effected by the proposed merger, is otherwise consistent with applicable provisions of law, regulations, and orders issued by the Commission, subject to the conditions set forth herein. These findings are supported by a safety evaluation dated .. November 5,1998.
