SUBJECT:

INDIAN POINT ENERGY CENTER GENERATING UNITS 1, 2, AND 3 -

EXEMPTION FROM THE REQUIREMENTS OF 10 CFR 50.54(w)(1)

CONCERNING ONSITE PROPERTY DAMAGE INSURANCE (EPID L-2022-LLE-0010)

Dear Jean Fleming:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved the enclosed exemption from the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 50.54(w)(1) concerning onsite property damage insurance for the Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos.

1, 2, and 3, collectively referred to as the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC). The exemption was submitted by Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC (HDI), on behalf of Holtec Indian Point 2, LLC (Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 1 and 2) and Holtec Indian Point 3, LLC (Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit No. 3).

This action is in response to the application dated March 18, 2022 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML22077A132), requesting an exemption to reduce the minimum coverage limit from $1.06 billion to $50 million for IPEC.

This exemption is effective as of November 14, 2023. These reductions are a standard action for decommissioning nuclear power reactors and reflect the reduced risk of radiological accidents and associated consequences once the facility has permanently ceased operation.

Additionally, the risk of radiological accidents is sufficiently low 15 months after the IPEC reactors have been permanently shutdown, which is part of the basis for approval of the current exemption related to onsite property damage insurance for IPEC. to this letter contains a copy of the exemption. The exemption has been forwarded to the Office of the Federal Register for publication.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding, 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. ADAMS is accessible from the NRC website at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.

J. Fleming If you have any questions concerning the above, please contact me at 301-415-8534 or via email to Karl.Sturzebecher@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
