SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The NRC received a subsequent 

license renewal application (SLRA) 

from DESC, dated August 17, 2023 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 198 / Monday, October 16, 2023 / Notices 71385 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML23233A172), 

filed pursuant to Section 103 of the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended 

(the Act), and part 54 of title 10 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), 

‘‘Requirements for Renewal of Operating 

Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants,’’ to 

renew the operating license for V.C. 

Summer for an additional period of 20 

years beyond the expiration of the 

current renewed license. The V.C. 

Summer unit is a pressurized-water 

reactor designed by Westinghouse to 

operate at 2,900 megawatts thermal, and 

is located near Jenkinsville, South 

Carolina. A notice of receipt of the 

SLRA was published in the Federal 

Register on September 11, 2023 (88 FR 

62409). 

The NRC staff has determined that 

DESC has submitted sufficient 

information in accordance with 10 CFR 

54.19, 54.21, 54.22, 54.23, 51.45, and 

51.53(c), to enable the staff to undertake 

a review of the application, and that the 

application is, therefore, acceptable for 

docketing. The current Docket No. 50– 

395 for Renewed Facility Operating 

License No. NPF–12, will be retained. 

The determination to accept the SLRA 

for docketing does not constitute a 

determination that a subsequent 

renewed license should be issued and 

does not preclude the NRC staff from 

requesting additional information as the 

review proceeds. 

Before issuance of the requested 

subsequent renewed license, the NRC 

will have made the findings required by 

the Act and the Commission’s rules and 

regulations. In accordance with 10 CFR 

54.29, the NRC may issue a subsequent 

renewed license on the basis of its 

review if it finds that actions have been 

identified and have been or will be 

taken with respect to: (1) managing the 

effects of aging during the period of 

extended operation on the functionality 

of structures and components that have 

been identified as requiring aging 

management review; and (2) timelimited aging analyses that have been 

identified as requiring review, such that 

there is reasonable assurance that the 

activities authorized by the renewed 

license will continue to be conducted in 

accordance with the current licensing 

basis and that any changes made to the 

plant’s current licensing basis will 

comply with the Act and the 

Commission’s regulations. 

Additionally, in accordance with 10 

CFR 51.95(c), the NRC staff will prepare 

an environmental impact statement 

(EIS), in which the staff will evaluate 

the environmental impacts of the 

proposed action and reasonable 

alternatives thereto. A draft EIS will be 

published for comment and will be the 

subject of a future Federal Register 

notice. In considering the SLRA, the 

Commission must find that the 

applicable requirements of subpart A of 

10 CFR part 51 have been satisfied, and 

that any matters raised under 10 CFR 

2.335 have been addressed. Pursuant to 

10 CFR 51.26, and as part of the 

environmental scoping process, the staff 

intends to hold public scoping 

meetings. Detailed information 

regarding the environmental scoping 

meetings will be the subject of a 

separate Federal Register notice. 

II. Opportunity To Request a Hearing 

and Petition for Leave To Intervene 

Within 60 days after the date of 

publication of this notice, any person 

(petitioner) whose interest may be 

affected by this action may file a request 

for a hearing and petition for leave to 

intervene (petition) with respect to the 

action. Petitions shall be filed in 

accordance with the Commission’s 

‘‘Agency Rules of Practice and 

Procedure’’ in 10 CFR part 2. Interested 

persons should consult 10 CFR 2.309. If 

a petition is filed, the presiding officer 

will rule on the petition and, if 

appropriate, a notice of a hearing will be 

issued. 

Petitions must be filed no later than 

60 days from the date of publication of 

this notice in accordance with the filing 

instructions in the ‘‘Electronic 

Submissions (E-Filing)’’ section of this 

document. Petitions and motions for 

leave to file new or amended 

contentions that are filed after the 

deadline will not be entertained absent 

a determination by the presiding officer 

that the filing demonstrates good cause 

by satisfying the three factors in 10 CFR 

2.309(c)(1)(i) through (iii). 

A State, local governmental body, 

Federally recognized Indian Tribe, or 

designated agency thereof, may submit 

a petition to the Commission to 

participate as a party under 10 CFR 

2.309(h) no later than 60 days from the 

date of publication of this notice. 

Alternatively, a State, local 

governmental body, Federally 

recognized Indian Tribe, or agency 

thereof may participate as a non-party 

under 10 CFR 2.315(c). 

For information about filing a petition 

and about participation by a person not 

a party under 10 CFR 2.315, see ADAMS 

Accession No. ML20340A053 (https://

adamswebsearch2.nrc.gov/webSearch2/ 

main.jsp?Accession

Number=ML20340A053) and the NRC’s 

public website at https://www.nrc.gov/ 

about-nrc/regulatory/adjudicatory/ 

hearing.html#participate. 

III. Electronic Submissions (E-Filing) 

All documents filed in NRC 

adjudicatory proceedings including 

documents filed by an interested State, 

local governmental body, Federally 

recognized Indian Tribe, or designated 

agency thereof that requests to 

participate under 10 CFR 2.315(c), must 

be filed in accordance with 10 CFR 

2.302. The E-Filing process requires 

participants to submit and serve all 

adjudicatory documents over the 

internet, or in some cases, to mail copies 

on electronic storage media, unless an 

exemption permitting an alternative 

filing method, as further discussed, is 

granted. Detailed guidance on electronic 

submissions is located in the ‘‘Guidance 

for Electronic Submissions to the NRC’’ 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML13031A056) 

and the NRC’s public website at https:// 

www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. 

To comply with the procedural 

requirements of E-Filing, at least 10 

days prior to the filing deadline, the 

participant should contact the Office of 

the Secretary by email at 

Hearing.Docket@nrc.gov, or by 

telephone at 301–415–1677, to (1) 

request a digital identification (ID) 

certificate, which allows the participant 

(or its counsel or representative) to 

digitally sign submissions and access 

the E-Filing system for any proceeding 

in which it is participating; and (2) 

advise the Secretary that the participant 

will be submitting a petition or other 

adjudicatory document (even in 

instances in which the participant, or its 

counsel or representative, already holds 

an NRC-issued digital ID certificate). 

Based upon this information, the 

Secretary will establish an electronic 

docket for the proceeding if the 

Secretary has not already established an 

electronic docket. 

Information about applying for a 

digital ID certificate is available on the 

NRC’s public website at https://

www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/ 

getting-started.html. After a digital ID 

certificate is obtained and a docket 

created, the participant must submit 

adjudicatory documents in Portable 

Document Format. Guidance on 

submissions is available on the NRC’s 

public website at https://www.nrc.gov/ 

site-help/electronic-sub-ref-mat.html. A 

filing is considered complete at the time 

the document is submitted through the 

NRC’s E-Filing system. To be timely, an 

electronic filing must be submitted to 

the E-Filing system no later than 11:59 

p.m. ET on the due date. Upon receipt 

of a transmission, the E-Filing system 

time-stamps the document and sends 

the submitter an email confirming

receipt of the document. The E-Filing 

system also distributes an email that 

provides access to the document to the 

NRC’s Office of the General Counsel and 

any others who have advised the Office 

of the Secretary that they wish to 

participate in the proceeding, so that the 

filer need not serve the document on 

those participants separately. Therefore, 

applicants and other participants (or 

their counsel or representative) must 

apply for and receive a digital ID 

certificate before adjudicatory 

documents are filed to obtain access to 

the documents via the E-Filing system. 

A person filing electronically using 

the NRC’s adjudicatory E-Filing system 

may seek assistance by contacting the 

NRC’s Electronic Filing Help Desk 

through the ‘‘Contact Us’’ link located 

on the NRC’s public website at https:// 

www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html, by email to 

MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov, or by a tollfree call at 1–866–672–7640. The NRC 

Electronic Filing Help Desk is available 

between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m., ET, Monday 

through Friday, except Federal holidays. 

Participants who believe that they 

have good cause for not submitting 

documents electronically must file an 

exemption request, in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper 

filing stating why there is good cause for 

not filing electronically and requesting 

authorization to continue to submit 

documents in paper format. Such filings 

must be submitted in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(b)–(d). Participants filing 

adjudicatory documents in this manner 

are responsible for serving their 

documents on all other participants. 

Participants granted an exemption 

under 10 CFR 2.302(g)(2) must still meet 

the electronic formatting requirement in 

10 CFR 2.302(g)(1), unless the 

participant also seeks and is granted an 

exemption from 10 CFR 2.302(g)(1). 

Documents submitted in adjudicatory 

proceedings will appear in the NRC’s 

electronic hearing docket, which is 

publicly available at https://

adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless excluded 

pursuant to an order of the presiding 

officer. If you do not have an NRCissued digital ID certificate as 

previously described, click ‘‘cancel’’ 

when the link requests certificates and 

you will be automatically directed to the 

NRC’s electronic hearing dockets where 

you will be able to access any publicly 

available documents in a particular 

hearing docket. Participants are 

requested not to include personal 

privacy information such as social 

security numbers, home addresses, or 

personal phone numbers in their filings 

unless an NRC regulation or other law 

requires submission of such 

information. With respect to 

copyrighted works, except for limited 

excerpts that serve the purpose of the 

adjudicatory filings and would 

constitute a Fair Use application, 

participants should not include 

copyrighted materials in their 

submission. 

Detailed information about the license 

renewal process can be found under the 

Reactor License Renewal section on the 

NRC’s public website at https://

www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/ 

licensing/renewal.html. Copies of the 

application to renew the operating 

license for V.C. Summer are available 

for public inspection at the NRC’s PDR, 

and on the NRC’s public website at 

https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/ 

licensing/renewal/applications.html. 

The application may be accessed in 

ADAMS through the NRC Library on the 

internet at https://www.nrc.gov/readingrm/adams.html under ADAMS 

Accession No. ML23233A172. As 

previously stated, persons who do not 

have access to ADAMS or who 

encounter problems in accessing the 

documents located in ADAMS may 

contact the NRC’s PDR reference staff by 

telephone at 1–800–397–4209 or 301– 

415–4737, or by email to 

PDR.Resource@nrc.gov.
