[ DOCKET NOS. 50-317 AND 50-3181 BALTIMORE GAS & ELECTRIC COMP NY CALVERT CLIFFS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT UNITS 1 AND 2 l
NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE FOR DOCKETING OF THE APPLICATION FOR RENEWAL / f FACILITY OPERATING LICENSES NOS. DPR-53 AND DPR-69 FOR AN ADDITIONAL 20-YEAR PERIOD l The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) is considering the renewal of operating license Nos. DPR-53 and DPR-69, which authorize Baltimore Gas & Electric Company (BG&E), the applicant, to operate its Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP),
Units 1 and 2 at 2700 megawatts thermal. The renewed licenses would authorize the applicant to operate CCNPP Units 1 and 2 for an additional 20 years beyond the current 40-year period.
l The current license for Unit 1 expires on July 31, 2014, and the current license for Unit 2 explies on August 13,2016.
On April 10,1998, BG&E submitted an application to renew the operating licenses for its CCNPP units. A Notice of Receipt of Application," Baltimore Gas & Electric Company; Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant Units 1 & 2; Notice of Receipt of Application for Renewal of Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR-53 and DPR-69 for an Additional 20-Year Period," was published in the Federal Register on April 27,1998, (63 FR 20663). The Commission's staff has determined that BG&E has submitted information in accordance with 10 CFR 54.19,54.21, 54.22, 54.23, and 51.53(c) that is complete and acceptable for docketing. The current Docket Nos. 50-317 and 50-318 for License Nos. DPR-53 and DPR-69 will be retained. If the l
Commission determines that new license or docket numbers are necessary, any such changes will be published in a subsequent Federal Register notice.
The docketing of the renewal application does not preclude requesting additional information as the review proceeds, nor does it predict whether the Commission will grant or deny the

application. The license will not be renewed unless the Commission makes the findings required by 10 CFR 54.29. Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.26, as part of the environmental scoping process, the staff intends to hold a public scoping meeting. The details of the public scoping meeting will be included in a future Enderal Register notice. In addition, the Commission also intends to hold public meetings to discuss the license renewal process and schedule for conducting the review. The Commission will provide prior notice for these meetings.
An opportunity to request a hearing on the application for a renewed license will be the subject of a subsequent Federal Reginter notice.
Detailed information about the license renewal process can be found under the nuclear reactors icon of the NRC's web page, http://www.nrc. gov.
A copy of the application to renew the CCNPP Units 1 and 2 licenses is available for public inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building,2120 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20037, and the Local Public Document Room for the CCNPP Units 1 and 2 located in the Calvert County Public Library, 30 Duke Street, Prince Frederick, MD 20678.
