NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[Docket No. 50–285; NRC–2022–0127] 

Omaha Public Power District, Fort 

Calhoun Station, Unit 1; License 

Termination Plan 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Public meeting and request for 

comment. 

SUMMARY: On August 3, 2021, as 

supplemented on January 13, 2022, the 

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 

(NRC) received from the Omaha Public 

Power District (OPPD, the licensee) a 

license amendment request to add a 

license condition to include the 

requirements of a License Termination 

Plan (LTP) for the Fort Calhoun Station, 

Unit 1 (FCS). The LTP provides details 

about the known radiological 

information for the site, the planned 

demolition and decommissioning tasks 

to be completed, and the final 

radiological surveys and data that must 

be obtained for termination of the NRC’s 

license for FCS. The NRC is requesting 

public comments on FCS’s LTP and will 

hold a public meeting to discuss the 

LTP. 

DATES: The public meeting will be held 

on Wednesday, July 13, 2022, from 6:00 

p.m. to 7:30 p.m., Central Time (CT), at 

the Blair Public Library & Technology 

Center, 2233 Civic Dr., Blair, NE. The 

public meeting is also available through 

an online webinar. Submit comments by 

September 6, 2022. Comments received 

after this date will be considered if it is

II. Discussion 

Omaha Public Power District (OPPD 

or licensee) is the holder of Facility 

Operating License No. DPR–40. The 

license provides, among other things, 

that the facility is subject to all rules, 

regulations, and orders of the NRC now 

or hereafter in effect. The facility is a 

pressurized-water reactor located in 

Washington County, NE. 

On June 24, 2016, OPPD formally 

notified the NRC of its intent to 

permanently cease operations at FCS. 

By letter dated November 13, 2016, the 

licensee notified the NRC that it had 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 130 / Friday, July 8, 2022 / Notices 40871 

permanently ceased power operations at 

FCS on October 14, 2016, and certified 

that as of November 13, 2016, all fuel 

had been permanently removed from 

the FCS reactor vessel and placed in the 

FCS spent fuel pool. 

The licensee submitted its PostShutdown Decommissioning Activities 

Report (PSDAR) on March 20, 2017. The 

PSDAR described the licensee’s 

proposed decommissioning activities 

and schedule. At that time, the licensee 

selected to place the facility in longterm storage (i.e., the ‘‘SAFSTOR’’ 

decommissioning option) as described 

in the PSDAR. SAFSTOR is a method of 

decommissioning in which a nuclear 

facility is placed and maintained in a 

condition that allows the facility to be 

safely stored and subsequently 

decontaminated (deferred 

decontamination) to levels that permit 

release for unrestricted use. The 

licensee planned to continue in 

SAFSTOR until 2058. 

By letter dated December 16, 2019, 

OPPD submitted an updated PSDAR to 

reflect that the decommissioning 

approach for the FCS was changing from 

SAFSTOR to the immediate 

decontamination and dismantlement of 

the facility (i.e., the DECON 

decommissioning option). DECON is a 

method of decommissioning in which 

structures, systems, and components 

that contain radioactive contamination 

are removed from the site and safely 

disposed at a commercially operated 

low-level waste disposal facility or 

decontaminated to a level that permits 

the site to be released for unrestricted 

use as soon as possible after removal of 

the spent fuel from the spent fuel pool. 

On May 13, 2020, FCS removed the last 

canister of fuel and all special nuclear 

material from the spent fuel pool. 

On August 3, 2021, FCS submitted 

their LTP to the NRC as supplemented 

by letter dated January 13, 2022. 

Paragraph 50.82(a)(9) of title 10 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), 

‘‘Termination of license,’’ specifies that 

an application for license termination 

must be accompanied or preceded by a 

LTP, which is subject to NRC review 

and approval. The LTP addresses site 

characterization to ensure that the scope 

of final status surveys (FSS) of the site 

cover all areas where contamination 

existed, remains, or has the potential to 

exist or remain, identification of 

remaining dismantlement activities, 

plans for site remediation, a description 

of the FSS plans to confirm that FCS 

will meet the release criteria in 10 CFR 

part 20, subpart E, ‘‘Radiological Criteria 

for License Termination,’’ dosemodeling scenarios that ensure 

compliance with the radiological 

criteria for license termination, an 

estimate of the remaining site-specific 

decommissioning costs, a supplement to 

the FCS Defueled Safety Analysis 

Report and an updated assessment of 

the environmental effects of 

decommissioning FCS. 

According to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(9)(iii), 

after the licensee submits an LTP the 

NRC must hold a public meeting near 

the site. The purpose of the meeting is 

for the NRC staff to discuss the NRC’s 

review of the LTP and to request public 

comments on the LTP.
