NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[Docket NO. 50–170] 

Notice of License Renewal Application 

for Facility Operating License; Armed 

Forces Radiobiology Research 

Institute 

Notice is hereby given that the U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the 

Commission) has received an 

application dated June 24, 2004, from 

the Armed Forces Radiobiology 

Research Institute (AFRRI), filed 

pursuant to Section 104c of the Atomic 

Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the 

Act), and 10 CFR 50.51(a), to renew 

Operating License No. R–84 for the 

Armed Forces Radiobiology Research 

Institute TRIGA Mark-F reactor. AFRRI 

requested renewal of the license to 

authorize operation of the facility for an 

additional 20-year period beyond the 

period specified in the current operating 

license. The current operating license 

for the AFRRI reactor (R–84) expired on 

August 1, 2004. In accordance with 10 

CFR 2.109(a), the application for 

renewal was submitted at least 30 days 

prior to the expiration of the existing 

license, and therefore the existing 

license will not be deemed to have 

expired until the application has been 

finally determined. The reactor is 

located on the grounds of the National 

Naval Medical Center (NNMC), 

Bethesda, Maryland. The mission of 

AFRRI is to conduct scientific research 

in the field of radiobiology and related 

matters essential to the support of the 

Department of Defense. The 

acceptability of the tendered application 

for renewal and other matters including 

an opportunity to request a hearing, will 

be the subject of a subsequent Federal 

Register notice. 

Copies of the application are available 

electronically at NRC’s Electronic 

Reading Room at http://www.nrc.gov/

reading-rm/adams.html under accession 

number ML041800067. From this site, 

you can access the NRC’s Agencywide 

Documents Access and Management 

System (ADAMS), which provides text 

and image files of NRC’s public 

documents. Please note that on October 

25, 2004, the NRC terminated public 

access to ADAMS and initiated an 

additional security review of publicly 

available documents to ensure that 

potentially sensitive information is 

removed from the ADAMS database 

accessible through the NRC’s Web site. 

Interested members of the public may 

obtain copies of the referenced 

documents for review and/or copying by 

contacting the Public Document Room 

pending resumption of public access to 

ADAMS. The NRC Public Document 

Room is located at NRC Headquarters in 

Rockville, MD, and can be contacted at

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 18th day 

of November 2004.

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[Docket Nos. 50–317 and 50–318] 

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 

Nos. 1 and 2; Notice of Consideration 

of Issuance of Amendment to Renewed 

Facility Operating License and 

Opportunity for a Hearing 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (the Commission) is 

considering issuance of an amendment 

to Renewed Facility Operating License 

No. DPR–53 and No. DPR–69, issued to 

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Inc. 

(the licensee), for operation of the 

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 

Nos. 1 and 2 located in Lusby, MD. 

The proposed amendment would 

revise Technical Specification 3.9.4, 

‘‘Shutdown Cooling (SDC) and Coolant 

Circulation-High Water Level,’’ to 

incorporate the use of an alternate 

cooling method to function as a path for 

decay heat removal when in Mode 6 

with the refueling pool fully flooded. 

The spent fuel pool cooling system is 

the alternative cooling method intended 

to be used as a substitute for the SDC 

system during the refueling operations, 

including during fuel movement. 

Before issuance of the proposed 

license amendment, the Commission 

will have made findings required by the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended 

(the Act), and the Commission’s 

regulations. 

Within 60 days after the date of 

publication of this notice, the licensee 

may file a request for a hearing with 

respect to issuance of the amendment to 

the subject facility operating license and 

any person whose interest may be 

affected by this proceeding and who 

wishes to participate as a party in the 

proceeding must file a written request 

for a hearing and a petition for leave to 

intervene. Requests for a hearing and a 

petition for leave to intervene shall be 

filed in accordance with the 

Commission’s ‘‘Rules of Practice for 

Domestic Licensing Proceedings’’ in 10 

CFR part 2. Interested persons should 

consult a current copy of 10 CFR 2.309, 

which is available at the Commission’s 

PDR, located at One White Flint North, 

Public File Area 01F21, 11555 Rockville 

Pike (first floor), Rockville, Maryland. 

Publicly available records will be 

accessible from the Agencywide 

Documents Access and Management 

System’s (ADAMS) Public Electronic 

Reading Room on the Internet at the 

NRC Web site, http://www.nrc.gov/

reading-rm/doc-collections/cfr/. (NOTE:

Public access to ADAMS has been 

temporarily suspended so that security 

reviews of publicly available documents 

may be performed and potentially 

sensitive information removed. Please 

check the NRC Web site for updates on 

the resumption of ADAMS access.) If a 

request for a hearing or petition for 

leave to intervene is filed by the above 

date, the Commission or a presiding 

officer designated by the Commission or 

by the Chief Administrative Judge of the 

Atomic Safety and Licensing Board 

Panel, will rule on the request and/or 

petition; and the Secretary or the Chief 

Administrative Judge of the Atomic 

Safety and Licensing Board will issue a 

notice of a hearing or an appropriate 

order. 

As required by 10 CFR 2.309, a 

petition for leave to intervene shall set 

forth with particularity the interest of 

the petitioner/requestor in the 

proceeding, and how that interest may 

be affected by the results of the 

proceeding. The petition should 

specifically explain the reasons why 

intervention should be permitted with
