PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT UNIT 1 - NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF THE DRAFT SUPPLEMENT 61 TO THE GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS (EPID NUMBER: L-2023-LNE-0002) (DOCKET NUMBER: 50-440)
Dear Brian Dickens:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has prepared an environmental impact statement (EIS), Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants, Supplement 61, Regarding Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1, Draft Report (NUREG-1437) (DSEIS). The period to provide comments on this document will end 45 days after the Federal Register Notice expected September 6, 2024.
Based on the staffs evaluation in the DSEIS, the NRC staffs preliminary conclusion is there are no environmental reasons for energy-planning decisionmakers to prevent Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Unit No. 1 to continue to operate for an additional 20 years. The NRC staff based its recommendation on the following: 1) the applicants environmental report; 2) the NRC staffs consultation with Federal, State, Tribal, and local governmental agencies; 3) the NRC staffs independent environmental review; and 4) the NRC staffs consideration of public comments received during the scoping process.
The draft EIS was submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency via e-NEPA and copies are also being distributed to interested Federal, State, and local agencies, industry organizations, interest groups, and members of the public. A copy of this document will also be placed in the Perry Public Library located at 3753 Main St, Perry, OH 44081, and in the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. The ADAMS accession number for draft site-specific EIS is ML24241A256.
