Exelon Generation Company, LLC; LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2 AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Exemption; issuance.
SUMMARY
- The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued a temporary exemption in response to a February 20, 2021 request from Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon, the licensee) from requirements regarding pre-access drug and alcohol testing to maintain authorization for individuals assigned work activities necessary for the timely completion of a refueling and maintenance outage at LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2 (LSCS).
DATES: The exemption was issued on February 22, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Discussion By application dated February 20, 2021, as supplemented by letter dated February 21, 2021, the NRC received from Exelon a request for a temporary exemption from certain requirements of part 26 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Fitness for Duty Programs, for LSCS.
The NRCs regulations at 10 CFR part 26 include the fitness-for-duty (FFD) requirements concerning pre-access testing for granting FFD authorization to an individual who either has never held FFD authorization or whose last period of FFD authorization was terminated favorably and no potentially disqualifying FFD information has been discovered or disclosed that was not previously reviewed and resolved by a licensee under the requirements of this part. Sections 26.65(d) and 26.65(e) of the 2
NRCs regulations describe the requirements for FFD authorization reinstatement after an interruption of more than 30 days and after an interruption of 30 or fewer days, respectively. In particular, 10 CFR 26.65(d)(1)(ii) and 26.65(e)(2)(iii)(B) require the licensee to verify that the drug test results are negative within 5 business days of specimen collection or administratively withdraw FFD authorization until the drug test results are received.
According to the application, during the week of February 15, 2021, severe winter weather caused substantial service disruptions at the FedEx Express shipping service hub in Memphis, Tennessee. The weather delayed shipments and delivery of drug and alcohol test specimens for approximately 435 outage workers granted temporary access to LSCS. This delay could result in FFD authorization being removed for these individuals and Exelons inability to timely restore LSCS to the electrical grid to serve the public and the Nations economic infrastructure. To avoid this possibility, Exelon requested a temporary exemption from 10 CFR 26.65(d)(1)(ii) and 26.65(e)(2)(iii)(B) to allow for extending the 5 business days requirement to 15 business days.
Upon review, the NRC determined that pursuant to 10 CFR 26.9, the requested exemption is authorized by law, will not endanger life or property or the common defense and security, and is otherwise in the public interest. Therefore, the NRC granted the licensees request to temporarily exempt LSCS from the requirements in 10 CFR 26.65(d)(1)(ii) and 10 CFR 26.65(e)(2)(iii)(B). The exemption was effective upon issuance and remained in effect for the specimen shipments then in transit and any subsequent shipments made through February 26, 2021, to allow time to arrange alternative shipping, if possible.
