Strategic Plan Fiscal Year 2022-2026

Perry Plant License Renewal

  • The operating license was issued on November 13, 1986, and is set to expire on November 7, 2026

Environmental Review

  • Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GEIS)

- Addresses Category 1 environmental issues common to all plants (or a distinct subset of plants) during the license renewal term

  • Environmental Impact Statement

- Neither the applicant nor the NRC identified information that is both new and significant related to Category 1 issues that would call into question the conclusions in the LR GEIS

- Addresses Category 2 environmental issues during the license renewal term on a site-specific basis 8

Environmental Review 9

How Impacts are Defined

  • SMALL

- Effects are not detectable or are so minor that they will neither destabilize nor noticeably alter any important attribute of the resource

  • MODERATE

- Effects are sufficient to alter noticeably, but not to destabilize, important attributes of the resource

  • LARGE

- Effects are clearly noticeable and are sufficient to destabilize important attributes of the resource 10

How Impacts are Defined (cont.)

- No effect

- May affect but is not likely to adversely affect

- May affect and is likely to adversely affect

  • Essential Fish Habitat (Magnuson-Stevens Act)

- No adverse impacts

- Minimal adverse impacts

- More than minimal, but less than substantial adverse effects

- Substantial adverse impact 11

How Impacts are Defined (cont.)

  • Historic and Cultural Resources (National Historic Preservation Act)

- No adverse effect

- Adverse effect

- Disproportionally high and adverse human health and environmental effects

- No disproportionately and adverse human health and environmental effects on minority and low-income populations

  • The NRC chooses to address EJ, though not required. There is a pending vote by the Commission on addressing EJ.

Draft EIS Preliminary Findings (cont.)

Resource Area

  • Historic and Cultural Resources
  • Cumulative Impacts Impacts
  • Would not adversely affect known historic properties
  • No disproportionately and adverse human health and environmental effects on minority and low-income populations
  • See Draft EIS Section 4.13 14

Draft EIS Preliminary Findings - Special Status Species and Habitats

  • May affect but is not likely to adversely affect

- Northern long-eared bat

- Indiana bat

- Tricolored bat

- Piping plover

- Red knot

- Monarch butterfly

  • No effect

- on designated critical habitats or essential fish habitat or National Marine Sanctuaries (do not occur within the area) 15

Alternatives

  • No new and significant information identified regarding the following alternatives
  • Alternative energy sources (power replacement)

- Natural Gas-Fired Combined-Cycle

- Renewables Natural Gas Combination

  • No-action alternative 16

Preliminary Recommendation The adverse environmental impacts of subsequent license renewal for Perry Plant for an additional 20 years beyond the current expiration date are not so great that preserving the option of subsequent license renewal for energy-planning decisionmakers would be unreasonable 17
