SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In accordance with section 51.118 of 

title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Final 

environmental impact statement— 

notice of availability,’’ the NRC is 

making available for public inspection 

NUREG–1437, Supplement 26, Second 

Renewal, regarding the subsequent 

license renewal of Northern States 

Power Company doing business as Xcel 

Energy (Xcel), renewed Facility 

Operating License No. DPR–22 for an 

additional 20 years of operation for 

Monticello. A notice of availability of 

the site-specific draft EIS (DEIS) 

(NUREG–1437, Supplement 26, Second 

Renewal) was published in the Federal 

Register on April 24, 2024 (89 FR 

31225). The U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) issued its 

Notice of Availability on April 19, 2024 

(89 FR 28771). To align the end of EPA’s 

comment period with the NRC’s 

comment period, on May 3, 2024 (89 FR 

36815), the public comment period was 

initially extended from June 3, 2024, to 

June 10, 2024. On June 5, 2024 (89 FR 

48196), the NRC staff extended the 

public comment period by 15 days to 

June 25, 2024, and on June 14, 2024, 

EPA also noticed the extension of the 

comment period to June 25, 2024 (89 FR 

50586) to allow more time for members 

of the public to develop and submit 

their comments. The public comment 

period on the site-specific DEIS 

(NUREG–1437, Supplement 26, Second 

Renewal) ended on June 25, 2024, and 

the comments received on the sitespecific DEIS are addressed in the final 

EIS (NUREG–1437, Supplement 26, 

Second Renewal). 

II. Discussion 

The site-specific draft EIS (NUREG– 

1437, Supplement 26, Second Renewal) 

was issued for public comment on April 

24, 2024 (89 FR 31225). The site-specific 

final EIS addresses the comments 

received on the site-specific draft EIS 

(NUREG–1437, Supplement 26, Second 

Renewal). As discussed in Chapter 4 of 

the final EIS (NUREG–1437, 

Supplement 26, Second Renewal), the 

NRC staff has determined that the 

adverse environmental impacts of SLR 

for Monticello (i.e., the continued 

operation of Monticello for a period of 

20 years beyond the expiration date of 

the initial renewed license) are not so 

great that preserving the option of SLR 

for energy-planning decision-makers 

would be unreasonable. This 

recommendation is based on: (1) 

information provided in the 

environmental report, as supplemented, 

and other documents submitted by Xcel; 

(2) consultation with Federal, State, 

Tribal, and local governmental agencies; 

(3) the NRC staff’s independent 

environmental review; (4) consideration 

of public comments received during the 

scoping process, on the site-specific 

DEIS (NUREG–1437, Supplement 26, 

Second Renewal); and (5) consideration 

of public comments received on the sitespecific draft EIS (NUREG–1437, 

Supplement 26, Second Renewal).

II. Background 

Under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently 

submitted a request for renewal of an 

existing collection of information to 

OMB for review entitled, ‘‘Requirements 

for Renewal of Operating Licenses for 

Nuclear Power Plants.’’ The NRC hereby 

informs potential respondents that an 

agency may not conduct or sponsor, and 

that a person is not required to respond 

to, a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

The NRC published a Federal 

Register notice with a 60-day comment 

period on this information collection on 

June 27, 2024, 89 FR 53662. 

1. The title of the information 

collection: Requirements for Renewal of 

Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power 

Plants. 

2. OMB approval number: 3150–0155. 

3. Type of submission: Extension. 

4. The form number, if applicable: 

Not applicable. 

5. How often the collection is required 

or requested: There is a one-time 

application for any licensee wishing to 

renew the operating license for its 

nuclear power plant. There is a one-time 

requirement for each licensee with a 

renewed operating license to submit a 

letter documenting the completion of 

inspection and testing activities. All 

holders of renewed licenses must 

perform yearly record keeping. 

6. Who will be required or asked to 

respond: Commercial nuclear power 

plant licensees who wish to renew their 

operating licenses and holders of 

renewed licenses. 

7. The estimated number of annual 

responses: 75 (13 reporting responses + 

62 recordkeepers). 

8. The estimated number of annual 

respondents: 69 (7 reporting 

respondents + 62 recordkeepers). 

9. The estimated number of hours 

needed annually to comply with the 

information collection requirement or 

request: 323,818 hours (255,818 hours 

reporting plus 68,000 hours 

recordkeeping). 

10. Abstract: Part 54 of title 10 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 

establishes license renewal 

requirements for commercial nuclear 

power plants and describes the 

information that licensees must submit 

to the NRC when applying for a license 

renewal. The application must contain 

information on how the licensee will 

manage the detrimental effects of agerelated degradation on certain plant 

systems, structures, and components to 

continue the plant’s safe operation 

during the renewal term. The NRC 

needs this information to determine 

whether the licensee’s actions will be 

effective in assuring the plants’ 

continued safe operation during the 

period of extended operation. Holders of 

renewed licenses must retain in an 

auditable and retrievable form, for the 

term of the renewed operating license, 

all information and documentation 

required to document compliance with 

10 CFR part 54. The NRC needs access 

to this information for continuing 

effective regulatory oversight. 

Dated: November 18, 2024.
