SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Introduction On June 17, 2021, the NRC granted one exemption in response to a request submitted by one licensee dated May 17, 2021. The exemption temporarily allows the licensee to deviate from certain requirements of chapter I of title 10 of the 
                    *Code of Federal Regulations*
                     (10 CFR), appendix E, “Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities,” section IV.F., “Training.” The exemption grants DTE Electric Company (for Fermi, Unit 2), a schedular exemption from the offsite biennial emergency preparedness exercise requirement, allowing it to postpone the calendar year 2020 full-participation biennial emergency preparedness (EP) exercise until the end of calendar year 2021. The exemption affords this licensee temporary relief from the requirements of 10 CFR part 50, appendix E, regarding offsite response organization (ORO) participation in the biennial emergency preparedness exercise. The exemption will not adversely affect the emergency response capability of the facility because the licensee has conducted numerous drills, exercises, and other 
                    ( print page 44060)
                    training activities that have exercised the licensee's emergency response strategies since the last evaluated biennial emergency preparedness exercise and that State, county and local OROs have participated therein. The table in this notice provides transparency regarding the number and type of exemptions the NRC has issued. Additionally, the NRC publishes tables of approved regulatory actions related to the COVID-19 PHE on its public website at 
                    *https://www.nrc.gov/​about-nrc/​covid-19/​reactors/​licensing-actions.html.* II. Availability of Documents The table in this notice provides the facility name, docket number, document description, and ADAMS accession number for the exemption issued. Additional details on the exemption issued, including the exemption request submitted by the licensee and the NRC's decision, are provided in the exemption approval listed in the table in this notice.
