#### Ronald L. PORTER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Gordon R. ENGLAND,* Secretary of the Navy, Defendant-Appellee.

No. 01-15564.

D.C. No. CV-00-05906-REC.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Submitted May 13, 2002 **.

Decided May 28, 2002.

Before FERNANDEZ, THOMAS, and WARD LAW, Circuit Judges.

*

 Gordon R. England is substituted in place of his predecessor, Richard Danzig, as Secretary of the Navy. *See*Fed. R.App. P. 43(c)(2).

**

 This panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. *See*Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2). Accordingly, we deny Porter's request for oral argument.

MEMORANDUM

Ronald L. Porter appeals pro se the district court’s judgment dismissing, for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, his action under the Administrative Procedures Act alleging that he was wrongfully terminated in a reduction in force. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court’s determination that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction, *Skagit County Pub. Hosp. No. 2 v. Shalala,*80 F.3d 379, 384 (9th Cir. 1996), and we affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Porter’s action because Porter’s complaint did not allege that the Secretary of the Navy subjected him to an “adverse action” or “prohibited personnel action.” *See Veit v. Heckler,*746 F.2d 508, 511 (9th Cir. 1984) (holding that the Administrative Procedures Act does not confer jurisdiction over personnel actions covered by the Civil Service Reform Act); *see also Vinieratos v. United States,*939 F.2d 762, 774 (9th Cir.1991) (holding that the general jurisdictional provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 1331 provide no independent ground for jurisdiction where a more specific statute explicitly denies jurisdiction).

The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Porter’s Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b) motion. *See Sch. Dist. No. IJ, Multnomah County v. ACandS, Inc.,*5 F.3d 1255, 1263 (9th Cir.1993).

We have considered Porter’s contentions regarding due process, equal protection and the lawfulness of the China Lake demonstration project, and we conclude that they are unpersuasive.

No. 01-026 March 9, 2001

NRC APPROVES TRANSFER OF OPERATING LICENSES

FOR MILLSTONE UNITS 1, 2 AND 3

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved the transfer of operating licenses for the

Millstone nuclear power plant Units 1, 2 and 3 to Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc.

The licenses had been held by Northeast Nuclear Energy Co., which operated Units 2 and 3, in

New London County, Ct. Unit 1 was permanently shut down in 1998.

Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc., is an indirect subsidiary of Dominion Energy, which is in

turn owned by Dominion Resources, Inc. Dominion Resources, Inc. is headquartered in Richmond,

Virginia, and is the parent corporation of Virginia Power, which operates the Surry and North Anna

nuclear power plants.

On August 31, 2000, Northeast Nuclear Energy Co. and Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc.,

submitted an application to the NRC requesting approval for the license transfer. The key issues

considered by the NRC technical staff included decommissioning funding, insurance and Dominion’s

technical and financial qualifications.

Notice of the request for approval and for an opportunity for a hearing was published in the

Federal Register on October 24, 2000. The Commission received no comments or requests for a

hearing.

NRC’s approval becomes effective immediately, but the actual transfer of ownership will occur

on a date mutually agreeable to Northeast Nuclear Energy Co. and Dominion.

Dominion will be the sole owner of, and authorized to maintain Millstone Unit 1. It will be the

sole owner and operator of Millstone Unit 2, and will own 93 percent and be the sole operator of Unit 3.

Central Vermont Public Service Corp. and Massachusetts Municipal Wholesale Electric Company,

which also own portions of Millstone Unit 3, are not involved in the license transfers.

#### § 147.0 Scope.

This part governs the entry of merchandise intended for exhibition or for use in constructing, installing, or maintaining foreign exhibits at trade fairs which have been so designated by the Secretary of Commerce. It also contains provisions concerning Customs supervision of the merchandise, and the disposition of the merchandise after the fair has closed. The entry of articles which may be admitted free of duty under other provisions of this chapter may be governed by those provisions rather than the regulations in this part.
