The Callaway plant is a single pressurized water reactor. The Union Electric Co., doing business proceeded on two tracks. A safety evaluation report was issued Aug. 21, 2014, and a supplemental environmental impact statement on Oct. 29, 2014. These documents, as well as other information about the Callaway license renewal, are available on the NRC website. Under NRC procedures, the staff may renCommission approval despite outstanding adjudicatory contentions. The Missouri Coalition for the Environment filed contentions last September and December seeking to re-open the Callaway adjudication. On Feb. 26, the Commission denied the September request to reopen and suspend licensing of reactors. Still pending before the Commission is the December request to reopen the hearing and file an environmental contention.

The staff on Feb. 3 requested authorization to renew the license. The Commission granted authorization on March 4. Should the renewed license be set aside on appeal, Callaway would revert to its original license, which is effective until Oct. 18, 2024. with renewed licenses. Applications for an additional 18 renewals are currently under review. Information about those reviews can be found on the NRC website.}}
