dated December 17, 2013 In Reference 1, Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) requested NRC approval of a one-time exemption for the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS), Units 2 and 3 Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) from the requirements of 10 CFR 72.212(b)(3) and (b)(11).

In Reference 2, the NRC documented that an exemption is not appropriate at this time.
