The Cooper plant has one boiling water reactor, and is located 23 miles south of Nebraska City, Neb. The current operating license expires Jan. 18, 2014.

Coopers owner, the Nebraska Public Power District, submitted the application Sept. 30.

The NRC staff is currently conducting its initial review of the application to determine whether it contains sufficient information required for the safety and environmental reviews.
