NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50–277 and 50–278]

PECO Energy Company and PSEG

Nuclear LLC et al.; Notice of

Consideration of Approval of Transfer

of Facility Operating Licenses and

Conforming Amendments, and

Opportunity for a Hearing

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (the Commission) is

considering the issuance of an order

under 10 CFR 50.80 approving the

transfer of Facility Operating License

No. DPR–44 for the Peach Bottom

Atomic Power Station (PBAPS), Unit 2,

and Facility Operating License No.

DPR–56 for PBAPS, Unit 3, to the extent

currently held by the Delmarva Power &

Light Company (DP&L) and the Atlantic

City Electric Company (ACE) in

connection with each of their 7.51

percent undivided ownership interests

in each of the two Peach Bottom units.

The transfer would be to PSEG Nuclear

LLC, and to either the PECO Energy

Company (PECO) as a subsidiary of

Exelon Corporation, or to Exelon

Generation Company, LLC (EGC) as an

indirect subsidiary of Exelon

Corporation, depending on the timing of

the transfers. The Commission is also

considering amending the licenses for

administrative purposes to reflect the

proposed transfer.

The Commission previously issued an

order on April 21, 2000, approving the

transfer of half of the ownership

interests of DP&L and ACE in PBAPS

Units 2 and 3 to PSEG Nuclear LLC and

the other half to PECO. One of the bases

of that order was that the interests of

DP&L and ACE would be transferred

collectively and simultaneously. On the

other hand, it was not necessarily

assumed that PECO would be a

subsidiary of Exelon Corporation. PECO

became a subsidiary of Exelon

Corporation on October 20, 2000.

According to an application for

approval dated October 10, 2000, filed

by PECO on behalf of itself, PSEG

Nuclear LLC, DP&L, and ACE, the

transfer of each of the half-interests of

DP&L and ACE may not occur at the

same time; the transfer of the ACE

interests may be delayed until after the

transfer of the DP&L interests. If the

DP&L and ACE interests are not

transferred simultaneously and

collectively, decommissioning funding

arrangements would be changed from

what had been previously approved by

the April 21, 2000 order. In particular,

a contractual guarantee by ACE would

be utilized to provide, in part,

decommissioning funding assurance

with respect to any DP&L transfer

occurring first. Furthermore, those

DP&L and ACE interests originally

proposed and approved to be transferred

to PECO are now explicitly being

proposed to be transferred directly from

DP&L and ACE, or ultimately and

indirectly through PECO, to EGC.

Although the transfer of PECO’s current

42.49 percent ownership interest in

PBAPS, Units 2 and 3, to EGC has been

approved by an order dated August 3,

2000, approving certain license

transfers, the transfer of half of the

current DP&L and ACE ownership

interests to EGC has not been expressly

approved by the NRC. By the October

10, 2000, application filed, PECO is

seeking all NRC approvals that would be

necessary to permit the implementation

of any of the foregoing scenarios. PECO

is also requesting that the effectiveness

of the April 21, 2000 NRC order be

extended for one additional year.

PECO is the licensed operator of

PBAPS, and would continue to be

responsible for the operation,

maintenance, and eventual

decommissioning of PBAPS until all

PECO interests in PBAPS are transferred

to EGC. No physical changes to PBAPS

or operational changes are being

proposed in the application.

The proposed conforming

amendments would remove references

in the licenses to ACE and DP&L as

appropriate to the timing of the requisite

license transfers, and reflect the

appropriate transferees.

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.80, no license,

or any right thereunder, shall be

transferred, directly or indirectly,

through transfer of control of the

license, unless the Commission shall
