UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Mr. Michael T. Sweeney Executive Vice President & Chief General Counsel Westinghouse Electric Company 1000 Westinghouse Drive Cranberry Township, PA 16066
SUBJECT:
U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REVIEW AND DECISION ON THRESHOLD DETERMINATION REQUEST (EPID L-2022-LLM-0004)
Dear Mr. Sweeney:
I am responding to your letter, dated December 20, 2022 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System [ADAMS] Accession No. ML22354A291), in which Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC (Westinghouse) requested the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC) determination that an interim transaction, replacing one of Westinghouses intermediate parent companies with a newly-formed intermediate parent company, subject to the restrictions in the Articles of Incorporation, does not constitute a transfer of control of the Westinghouse licenses for which prior written NRC consent would be required under Section 184 of the Atomic Energy Act (AEA) and NRC regulations.
We have completed our review of your request. Based upon the evaluation conducted, enclosed herein, the NRC staff has determined that the interim transaction, as described by Westinghouse and subject to the statements made in the letter dated February 27, 2023 (ML ML23058A448), submitted by Brookfield Corporation, does not involve a transfer, direct or indirect, of the operating license for Westinghouses Columbia Fuel Fabrication Facility (SNM-1107), and the 34 export licenses1, pursuant to Section 184 of the AEA, and Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 70.36, and 10 CFR 110.50(d). As a result, no NRC consent is required for the Interim Transaction.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d) of the NRC 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.
