NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50–387 and 50–388]

PPL Susquehanna, LLC, Susquehanna

Steam Electric Station, Units 1 and 2;

Notice of Consideration of Approval of

Application Regarding Proposed

Corporate Restructuring 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

indirect transfer of Facility Operating

Licenses Nos. NPF–14 and NPF–22 for

the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station

(SSES), Units 1 and 2 to the extent held

by PPL Susquehanna, LLC (PPL

Susquehanna, the licensee). The

indirect transfer would result from the

establishment of an intermediary parent

company that will indirectly own PPL

Susquehanna.

PPL Susquehanna is a wholly owned,

direct subsidiary of PPL Generation,

LLC, which is a wholly owned, direct

subsidiary of PPL Energy Funding

Corporation. PPL Energy Funding

Corporation is a wholly owned, direct

subsidiary of PPL Corporation, the

ultimate parent of PPL Susquehanna.

According to PPL Susquehanna’s

application dated March 6, 2001, as

supplemented on April 4, 2001, PPL

Energy Supply, LLC will become an

intermediary, indirect parent company

of PPL Susquehanna. Specifically, PPL

Energy Supply will become a subsidiary

of PPL Energy Funding Corporation and

the new direct parent of PPL

Generation, LLC. The proposed

corporate restructuring will not involve

any transfer of assets to or from PPL

Susquehanna, nor will it affect SSES

management, organization, or day-today operations. No physical or

operational changes to SSES Units 1 and

2 are proposed in the application. The

application does not involve Allegheny

Electric Cooperative, Inc., the other

owner of and co-holder of the licenses

for SSES Units 1 and 2.

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

give its consent in writing. The

Commission will approve an

application for the indirect transfer of a

license, if the Commission determines

that the underlying transaction that will

effectuate the indirect transfer will not

affect the qualifications of the holder of

the license, and that the transfer is

otherwise consistent with applicable

provisions of law, regulations, and

orders issued by the Commission

pursuant thereto.

The filing of requests for hearing and

petitions for leave to intervene, and

written comments with regard to the

license transfer application, are

discussed below.

By May 15, 2001, any person whose

interest may be affected by the

Commission’s action on the application

may request a hearing and, if not the

applicant, may petition for leave to

intervene in a hearing proceeding on the

Commission’s action. Requests for a

hearing and petitions for leave to

intervene should be filed in accordance

with the Commission’s rules of practice

set forth in Subpart M, ‘‘Public

Notification, Availability of Documents

and Records, Hearing Requests and

Procedures for Hearings on License

Transfer Applications,’’ of 10 CFR part

2. In particular, such requests and

petitions must comply with the

requirements set forth in 10 CFR 2.1306,

and should address the considerations

contained in 10 CFR 2.1308(a).

Untimely requests and petitions may be

denied, as provided in 10 CFR

2.1308(b), unless good cause for failure

to file on time is established. In

addition, an untimely request or

petition should address the factors that

the Commission will also consider, in

reviewing untimely requests or

petitions, set forth in 10 CFR

2.1308(b)(1)–(2).

Requests for a hearing and petitions

for leave to intervene should be served

upon John E. Matthews, counsel for PPL

Susquehanna, LLC, at Morgan, Lewis &

Bockius, LLP, 1800 M Street, NW.,

Washington, DC 20036–5869 (tel: 202–

467–7524; fax: 877–432–9652; e-mail:

jematthews@morganlewis.com); the

General Counsel, U.S. Nuclear

Regulatory Commission, Washington,

DC 20555 (e-mail address for filings

regarding license transfer cases only:

OGCLT@NRC.GOV); and the Secretary

of the Commission, U.S. Nuclear

Regulatory Commission, Washington,

DC 20555–0001, Attention: Rulemakings

and Adjudications Staff, in accordance

with 10 CFR 2.1313.

The Commission will issue a notice or

order granting or denying a hearing

request or intervention petition,

designating the issues for any hearing

that will be held and designating the

Presiding Officer. A notice granting a

hearing will be published in the Federal

Register and served on the parties to the

hearing.

As an alternative to requests for

hearing and petitions to intervene, by

May 25, 2001, persons may submit

written comments regarding the license

transfer application, as provided for in
