Draft Revision 2 – April 2014 for the Commission to issue an ESP in accordance with 10 CFR 52.24, “Issuance of Early Site Permit,” which states the following: (a) After conducting a hearing under 10 CFR 52.21 and receiving the report to be submitted by the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) under 10 CFR 52.23, the Commission may issue an ESP, in the form the Commission deems appropriate, if the Commission finds that: i. An application for an ESP meets the applicable standards and requirements of the Act and the Commission's regulations; ii. Notifications, if any, to other agencies or bodies have been duly made; iii. There is reasonable assurance that the site is in conformity with the provisions of the Act, and the Commission's regulations; iv. The applicant is technically qualified to engage in any activities authorized; v. The proposed inspections, tests, analyses and acceptance criteria, including any on emergency planning, are necessary and sufficient, within the scope of the ESP, to provide reasonable assurance that the facility has been constructed and will be operated in conformity with the license, the provisions of the Act, and the Commission's regulations; vi. Issuance of the permit will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public; vii. Any significant adverse environmental impact resulting from activities requested under 10 CFR 52.17(c) can be redressed; and viii. The findings required by subpart A of 10 CFR Part 51 have been made. (b) The early site permit must specify the site characteristics, any design parameters, and terms and conditions of the ESP the Commission deems appropriate. Before issuance of either a CP or COL referencing an ESP, the Commission shall find that any relevant terms and conditions of the ESP have been met. Any terms or conditions of the ESP that could not be met by the time of issuance of the CP or COL must be set forth as terms or conditions of the CP or COL.
