MARITIME ADMINISTRATIONS DECOMMISSIONING FUNDING STATUS REPORT FOR NUCLEAR SHIP SAVANNAH, DOCKET NO 50-238
Dear Erhard Koehler:
By letter dated March 29, 2022, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) received your decommissioning funding status (DFS) report (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML22091A289) for the Nuclear Ship Savannah (NSS).
The NRC has reviewed and analyzed the site-specific decommissioning cost estimate, as required in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.82(a)(4)(i), and the amount stated within the licensees decommissioning fund, as of December 31, 2021, for the above license. Based on the reported decommissioning fund balance, the NRC has determined that as of December 31, 2021, the U.S. Maritime Administration is providing a total amount of decommissioning funding assurance in the amount of $39,700,000 plus as needed reliance on a Statement of Intent for future needs for the NSS.
This letter confirms the correspondence, described above, regarding DFS reports for permanently shut down power reactors as required under 10 CFR 50.82(a)(v) - (vi). As of the date of this letter, considering the available information, the NRC has determined that the U.S.
Maritime Administration has satisfied the decommissioning funding assurance requirements of 10 CFR 50.82, Termination of License, for the NSS on December 31, 2021.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRCs ADAMS.
