NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[NRC-2013-0252]
In the Matter of )
)
Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, LLC ) Docket Nos. 50-220
) 50-410 Exelon Generation Company, LLC )
) License Nos. DPR-63 (Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, ) NPF-69 Units 1 and 2)
Order Approving Direct Transfer of Licenses and Conforming Amendments I.
Nine Mile Point Nuclear Power Station, LLC (Nine Mile Point, LLC or the licensee) is the holder of Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR-63, which authorizes the possession, use, and operation of Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (Nine Mile Point 1), including an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) with a general license. Nine Mile Point, LLC is also the 82 percent owner and the licensed operator of Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-69, which authorizes the possession, use, and operation of Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit 2 (Nine Mile Point 2). Long Island Power Authority owns the remaining 18 percent of Nine Mile Point 2. Nine Mile Point 1 and 2 (the facility) is located in Oswego County, New York.
II.
By application dated August 6, 2013, as supplemented by letters and emails dated August 14, 2013, September 23 and 26, 2013, December 17, 2013, January 9, 2014, and February 5, 10, 14, and 21, 2014 (together, the application), Constellation Energy Nuclear Group, LLC (CENG) requested on behalf of itself, its subsidiary, Nine Mile Point, LLC, and Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon Generation) (together, the applicants), that the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approve the proposed direct transfer of operating authority of the facility to Exelon Generation. The applicants also requested approval of conforming license amendments that would reflect the proposed transfer of operating authority to Exelon Generation. Prior to the transfer, Exelon Generation was an intermediate 50.01 percent parent company of CENG, which is the parent company owner of Nine Mile Point, LLC.
After completion of the proposed transfer, Exelon Generation would remain an intermediate parent company and also become the co-licensee of Nine Mile Point, LLC and the operator of Nine Mile Point 1 and 2. Exelon Generation will assume direct licensed responsibility for the operation of the facility and its ISFSI, but the ownership will not be affected. There will be no physical changes to the facility and no adverse changes in day-to-day operations.
Approval of the direct transfer of the renewed facility operating licenses and the conforming amendments was requested by the applicants pursuant to Sections 50.80 and 50.90 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR). A notice entitled, Consideration of Approval of Transfer of Renewed Facility Operating Licenses, Materials Licenses, and Conforming Amendments Containing Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards Information, was published in the Federal Register on December 26, 2013 (78 FR 78411). No comments or hearing requests were received.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.80, no license, or any right thereunder, shall be transferred, directly or indirectly, through transfer of control of the license, unless the NRC shall give its consent in writing. Upon review of the information in the application, and other information before the Commission, the NRC staff has determined that Exelon Generation is qualified to acquire and hold the operating authority under the license previously held by the licensee, and that the transfer of the license, as proposed in the application, is otherwise consistent with the applicable provisions of law, regulations, and orders issued by the Commission, pursuant thereto, subject to the conditions set forth below. The NRC staff has further found that the
application for the proposed license amendments complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commissions rules and regulations set forth in 10 CFR Chapter I; the facility will operate in conformity with the application, the provisions of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission; there is reasonable assurance that the activities authorized by the proposed conforming amendments can be conducted without endangering the health and safety of the public and that such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commissions regulations; the issuance of the proposed conforming amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public; and the issuance of the proposed conforming amendments will be in accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 of the Commissions regulations and all applicable requirements have been satisfied.
The findings set forth above are supported by the NRC staffs safety evaluation dated the same day as this Order.
III.
Accordingly, pursuant to Sections 161b, 161i, 161o, and 184 of the Act, 42 U.S.C.
Sections 2201(b), 2201(i), 2201(o), and 2234; and 10 CFR 50.80, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the direct license transfer of the operating authority of the licenses from the licensee to Exelon Generation, as described herein, is approved, subject to the following conditions:
- 1. The existing E.D.F. International S.A.S. Support Agreement of approximately
$145 million, dated November 6, 2009, may not be amended or modified without 30 days prior written notice to the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation or his designee. Nine Mile Point, LLC, CENG, or Exelon Generation shall not take any action to cause E.D.F. International S.A.S., or its successors and assigns, to void, cancel, or materially modify the E.D.F. International S.A.S.
Support Agreement or cause it to fail to perform, or impair its performance under
the E.D.F. International S.A.S. Support Agreement, without the prior written consent of the NRC. Exelon Generation shall inform the NRC in writing no later than 14 days after any funds are provided to or for the CENG subsidiary licensee under the E.D.F. International S.A.S. Support Agreement.
- 2. Exelon Corporation shall, no later than the time the license transfers occur, enter into a Support Agreement of approximately $245 million with the licensee. The Exelon Corporation Support Agreement shall supersede the Support Agreement provided by Exelon Generation, dated March 12, 2012, in all respects and shall be consistent with the representations contained in the August 6, 2013 transfer application. Nine Mile Point, LLC, CENG, or Exelon Generation shall not take any action to cause Exelon Corporation, or its successors and assigns, to void, cancel, or materially modify the Exelon Corporation Support Agreement or cause it to fail to perform, or impair its performance under the Exelon Corporation Support Agreement, without the prior written consent of the NRC.
