The FirstEnergy NuclearOperating Company(FENOC)requestsNuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)reviewandapprovalof an amendment to change the nameof an ownerlicenseeof BeaverValleyPowerStation,UnitNos.1 and2; Davis-Besse NuclearPowerStation, UnitNo.1; andPerryNuclearPowerPlant, UnitNo. 1. The proposed amendment willrevisethe nameof ownerlicensee FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.to FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration, LLC. | |||
4.1 Siqnificant HazardsConsideration FENOChasevaluated whetheror nota significant hazardsconsideration is involvedwiththe proposedamendment by focusingon the threestandards set forthin 10 CFR50.92,"lssuance of amendment," as discussed below. | |||
: 1. Doesthe proposedamendment involvea significant increasein the probability or consequences of an accidentpreviously evaluated? | |||
Response:No. | |||
The proposedamendment changesa nameof an ownerlicensee.The proposed amendment is considered administrative in nature.Thefunctionsof the owner licenseewill not change.Thereis no impactuponthe otherfacilitylicensees. | |||
Page5 FENOCwill remainthe operatorof the facilities.The proposedamendment does notalterthe design,function,or operationof any plantequipment. As such, the accidentandtransientanalysescontainedin the facilityupdatedfinalsafety analysisreportswill not be impacted.Therefore, the proposedamendment does notaffectthe probability or consequences of an accidentpreviously evaluated. | |||
: 2. Doesthe proposedamendment createthe possibility of a newor differentkind of accidentfromanyaccidentpreviously evaluated? | |||
Response:No. | |||
The proposedamendment is considered administrative in nature.Thefunctions of the ownerlicenseewill notchange.The proposedamendment doesnotalter the design,function,or operationof any plantequipment.Therefore, the proposedamendment doesnotcreatethe possibilityof a newor differentkindof accidentfromany accidentpreviously evaluated. | |||

SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION Thisevaluation supportsa requestto amendthe operatinglicensesof Beaver ValleyPowerStation,UnitNos.1 and 2 (DPR-66and NPF-73,rspectively); Davis-Besse NuclearPowerStation,UnitNo. 1 (NPF-3);and PerryNuclear PowerPlant,UnitNo. 1 (NPF-58).The proposedamendment will revisethe licensesto reflectthe new nameof one of the ownerlicenseesof the aforementioned whichhaschangedfrom"FirstEnergy facilities Nuclear Generation Corp."to "FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration, LLC." 2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.is an ownerlicenseefor the following NuclearRegulatory Commission (NRC)facilities:
. 100o/oof BeaverValleyPowerStation,UnitNo. 1 (BVPS-1) . 60.08%of BeaverValleyPowerStation,UnitNo.2 (BVPS-2) o 100o/oof Davis-Besse NuclearPowerStation,UnitNo. 1 (DBNPS) o 87.42o/oof PerryNuclearPowerPlant,UnitNo. 1 (PNPP)
FirstEnergy Corp.(FE),the overallparentof FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.,proposesconverting FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.froma corporation organizedunderthe lawsof the Stateof Ohioto a limitedliability company(LLC)organized underthe lawsof the Stateof Ohio. The proposed conversion willoccurby operationof the Stateof Ohiolaw. As a result, FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.willchangeits nameto FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration, LLC. Therefore, the operatinglicensesfor the aforementioned unitswill needto be amendedto reflectthe revisedcompany name. The proposedamendment will alsocorrecterrorsin the DBNPSand PNPP operatinglicensesregarding the nameof FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp. Theword"Nuclear" was inadvertently omittedin an entryin bothoperating licenses,andthe word"Corporation" was inadvertently usedinsteadof "Corp."in the DBNPSoperating license. Mark-upsof the BeaverValleyPowerStation,UnitNos.1 and 2; Davis-Besse NuclearPowerStation,UnitNo.1; andPerryNuclearPowerPlant,UnitNo.1 operatinglicensesreflecting thesechangesare includedin Attachments 1 through 4, respectively. For informational purposesonly,typedversionsof the BeaverValleyPower Station,UnitNos.1 and2; Davis-Besse NuclearPowerStation,UnitNo.1; and PerryNuclearPowerPlant,UnitNo. 1 operatinglicensesreflecting thesechanges are includedin Attachments 5 through8, respectively.
Page4 3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.will be converted to an OhioLLCpursuant to Sections1701.792and1705.361 of the Ohio Revised Code. The entity, previously knownas FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.,will remainthe ownerlicenseebothbeforeand afterthe conversion, butwill havea new corporate formas a limitedliabilitycompany.In accordance withSection 1705.391of the OhioRevisedCode,thisentitywill remainresponsible for providing fundingfor the operation of its ownership sharesin the above-listed facilitiesandfulfillall otherobligations as an ownerlicensee,includingproviding decommissioning fundingassurance for its ownership sharesin compliance with 10 CFR50.75.Therewillbe no ownership or management changesas a result of the conversion.The proposed conversion will resultin a namechangefor this entity.The namewillbecome"FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration, LLC." The proposed amendment willchangethe operating licenses for BVPS-1, BVPS-2,DBNPS,andPNPPto reflectthischange.The proposed amendment is considered administrative in nature.
4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
The FirstEnergy NuclearOperating Company(FENOC)requestsNuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)reviewandapprovalof an amendment to change the nameof an ownerlicenseeof BeaverValleyPowerStation,UnitNos.1 and2; Davis-Besse NuclearPowerStation, UnitNo.1; andPerryNuclearPowerPlant, UnitNo. 1. The proposed amendment willrevisethe nameof ownerlicensee FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.to FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration, LLC. 4.1 Siqnificant HazardsConsideration FENOChasevaluated whetheror nota significant hazardsconsideration is involvedwiththe proposedamendment by focusingon the threestandards set forthin 10 CFR50.92,"lssuance of amendment," as discussed below.
- 1. Doesthe proposedamendment involvea significant increasein the probability or consequences of an accidentpreviously evaluated?
Response:No. The proposedamendment changesa nameof an ownerlicensee.The proposed amendment is considered administrative in nature.Thefunctionsof the owner licenseewill not change.Thereis no impactuponthe otherfacilitylicensees.
Page5 FENOCwill remainthe operatorof the facilities.The proposedamendment does notalterthe design,function,or operationof any plantequipment. As such, the accidentandtransientanalysescontainedin the facilityupdatedfinalsafety analysisreportswill not be impacted.Therefore, the proposedamendment does notaffectthe probability or consequences of an accidentpreviously evaluated.
- 2. Doesthe proposedamendment createthe possibility of a newor differentkind of accidentfromanyaccidentpreviously evaluated?
Response:No. The proposedamendment is considered administrative in nature.Thefunctions of the ownerlicenseewill notchange.The proposedamendment doesnotalter the design,function,or operationof any plantequipment.Therefore, the proposedamendment doesnotcreatethe possibilityof a newor differentkindof accidentfromany accidentpreviously evaluated.
- 3. Doesthe proposedamendment involvea significant reductionin a marginof safety?
Response:No. The proposedamendment is a namechangeto reflectthe newnameof an ownerlicensee.The proposedamendment is considered administrative in nature.Thefunctionsof the ownerlicenseewill notchange.Thereis no impact uponthe otherfacilitylicensees.FENOCwill remainthe operatorof the facilities. The proposedamendment doesnot alterthe design,function,or operationof any plantequipment.As such,the accidentandtransientanalysescontainedin the facilityupdatedfinalsafetyanalysisreportswill not be impacted.Therefore, the proposedamendment doesnot involvea significant reductionin a marginof safety. Basedon the above,FENOCconcludes thatthe proposedamendment doesnot involvea significant hazardsconsideration underthe standards set forthin 10 CFR50.92(c), and,accordingly, a findingof "nosignificant hazards consideration" is justified. 4.2 Applicable Requlatorv Requirements/Criteria In accordance with 10 CFR50.80,Transferof licenses,no licensefor a utilization facilitycan be transferred throughtransferof controlof the licenseto anyentity unlessthe NRCconsents in writing.
Page6 FE proposesconverting FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.froma corporation organizedunderthe lawsof the Stateof Ohioto a limitedliability company(LLC)organizedunderthe lawsof the Stateof Ohio. The proposed conversion willoccurby operationof the Stateof Ohiolaw. As a result,the entity,previously knownas FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.,will remainthe ownerlicenseebothbeforeand afterthe conversion,butwith a new corporate formas a limitedliabilitycompany.Thisentitywill remainresponsible for providing fundingfor the operation of its ownership shares in BVPS-1, BVPS-2, DBNPS,andPNPPandfulfillall otherobligations as an ownerlicensee. The proposedamendment doesnot involvethe transferof controlto another entity.lt is a namechange.FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration Corp.will change its nameto FirstEnergy NuclearGeneration, LLC. Thereis no impactupon 1 0c F R 5 0 . 8 0 . 4.3 Preceden! I3yletterdatedMay 14,1999,TexasUtilitiesElectricCompanysubmittedan amendment to the NRCfor ComanchePeakSteamElectricStation,Units1 and2 to changethe nameof the companyto TXU ElectricCompany.The proposedamendment indicated thatit was an administrative change.The NRC approvedthe amenclment on August31, 1999[Agencywide Documents Access and Managernent System(ADAMS)AccessionNo.M10218202831. The proposedamendment for the FENOCfacilitiesis similarin thatit describesa namechangeandtheentitywillstillremainresponsible for fulfilling itsobligations as an ownerlicensee. 4.4 Conclusions In conclusion, basedon the considerations discussed above,(1)thereis reasonable assurance thatthe healthandsafetyof the publicwill not be endangered by operationin the proposedmanner,(2) suchactivities will be conductedin compliance withthe NuclearRegulatory Commission's regulations, and(3)the issuance of the amendment willnotbe inimicalto the common defenseandsecurityor to the healthandsafetyof the public. 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION A reviewhasdetermined thatthe proposedamendment would: 1) changea licensee's name,and2) makeseditorial, correctiveor otherminorrevisions to the license.Accordingly, the proposedamendment meetsthe eligibility criterionfor categorical exclusionsetforthin 10 CFR 51.22(c\(10xiii) and (v).
