March 21, 2023

ATTN: Document Control Desk U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555-0001

Subject:

Decommissioning Funding Status Report per 10 CFR §50.75(f)(1) - Entergy Operations, Inc.

Arkansas Nuclear One, Units 1 & 2 Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit 1 Docket Nos. 50-313 & 50-368 Docket No. 50-416 License Nos. DPR-51 & NPF-6 License No. NPF-29

River Bend Station, Unit 1 Waterford 3 Steam Electric Station Docket No. 50-458 Docket No. 50-382 License No. NPF-47 License No. NPF-38

10 CFR 50.75(f)(1) requires each power reactor licensee to report to the NRC by March 31, 1999, and every two years thereafter, on the status of its decommissioning funding for each reactor, or share of a reactor, that it owns. On behalf of Entergy Arkansas, LLC for Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO), System Entergy Resources, Inc. (SERI) and Cooperative Energy (formerly South Mississippi Electric Power Asso ciation (SMEPA)) for Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS), Entergy Louisiana, LLC for River Bend Station (RBS) and Waterford 3 Steam Electric Station (WF3), Entergy Operations, Inc. hereby submits the information requested for power reactors operated by Entergy Operations, Inc.

The estimated minimum decommissioning fund values were determined using the NRCs methodology in NUREG-1307, Rev 19.

The 70 percent regulated interest of RBS contains funds accumulated for separate rate regulatory jurisdictions. There are not separate trust funds for the individual jurisdictions responsible for decommissioning of the 70 percent regulated share of RBS. Balances in the nuclear decommissioning trust for the 70 percent regulated share of RBS attributable to the separate jurisdictions are accounted for by the Trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon. The following information provides the balances in the 70 percent regulated share trust attributable to each of the relevant jurisdictions as of December 31, 2022:

Entergy Operations, Inc., 1340 Echelon Parkway, Jackson, MS 39213

CNRO2023-00002 Page 2 of 4

Louisiana $281,487,876 Texas $285,155,641 FERC $ 15,601,892

The trust fund amounts reported for each facility in the responses to item 3 in the attachments represent the market value of decommissioning trust funds as of December 31, 2022 net of any material current income tax liability on realized gains, interest, dividends and other income of the trusts. Cooperative Energy is a not-for-profit electric cooperative, and is exempt from federal income tax. Accordingly, the amounts reported as of December 31, 2022 of funds separately accumulated by Cooperative Energy for GGNS decommissioning were after-tax amounts. The trusts for the following plants had balances on their 2022 tax liabilities (in thousands), not reflected in the trust fund balances, as follows (does not include Cooperative Energy):

ANO $ 0 GGNS $ 0 RBS $ 0 WF3 $ 0

In accordance with guidance provided by the NRC Staff in April 2014 requests for additional information (Accession No. ML14120A273) that "[f]uture 10 CFR 50.75(f) reports should clearly delineate estimated reactor and ISFSI decommissioning costs," the information in Attachments 1-4 includes line item 2 identifying the ISFSI dec ommissioning obligation, from the most recent 10 CFR 72.30 filing. This obligation is also accounted for in the Excess/Shortfall calculations for each plant in Attachment 5.

The information provided in Attachments 1-4 is based on NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2001-07. Consistent with your letter dated March 11, 2011 (Accession No. ML110280410),

we are providing with this submittal or incorporating by reference certain agreements providing for original (not resale) nuclear plant power sales (that may, from time to time, include decommissioning collections) between Entergy operating companies that invoke Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) tariffs. Considering these agreements and the applicable NRC regulations, Entergy respectfully asserts that these rate-making tariffs should not be viewed as "contractual obligations" as that term is used within 10 CFR 50.75(e)(1)(v).

These arrangements describe exchanges among regulated utilities that operate within the confines of a FERC-approved tariff, under the ratemaking jurisdiction of the FERC. As such, the various agreements are simply extensions of the FERC tariff and not the type of "contractual obligations" contemplated by 10 CFR 50.75(e)(1)(v), and Entergys decommissioning funding is still provided by the external sinking fund method in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75(e)(1)(ii). In an abundance of caution and in a spirit of cooperation, however, Entergy is providing or incorporating various tariff agreements for each affected plant.

Additionally, Attachment 5 includes Minimum Funding Assurance calculation worksheets (not required for this filing) derived from Datasheet 4 of LIC-205 Revision 6 for the plants, provided for the convenience of the reviewer.

The aforementioned worksheets, using the December 31, 2022 trust fund balances, indicate that all of the plants covered by this submitta l met or exceeded the NRCs funding requirements.

This submittal contains no new regulatory commitments. Should you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at 601-368-5102.
