Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 133 / Wednesday, July 12, 2006 / Notices
corporate restructuring is planned such
that FE Solutions will become the new
direct corporate parent of FENGenCo.
FE Solutions is currently a whollyowned subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp.,
as is FENGenCo. After the corporate
restructuring, FE Solutions will
continue to be a wholly-owned
subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp., while
FENGenCo will be an indirect whollyowned subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp.
and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of
FE Solutions. The Ohio Edison
Company, which holds a leased interest
in PNPP and is licensed to possess such
interest, is not involved in the planned
corporate restructuring.
No physical changes to the PNPP
facility or operational changes are being
proposed in the application.
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 proposed corporate
restructuring will not affect the
qualifications of the licensee to hold 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.
Within 20 days from the date of
publication of this notice, 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 C ‘‘Rules of General
Applicability: Hearing Requests,
Petitions to Intervene, Availability of
Documents, Selection of Specific
Hearing Procedures, Presiding Officer
Powers, and General Hearing
Management for NRC Adjudicatory
Hearings,’’ of 10 CFR part 2. In
particular, such requests and petitions
must comply with the requirements set
forth in 10 CFR 2.309. Untimely
requests and petitions may be denied, as

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

extent currently held by FirstEnergy
Nuclear Generation Corp. (FENGenCo),
regarding its ownership interests in
BVPS, Units 1 and 2.
According to an application for
approval filed by FirstEnergy Nuclear
Operating Company (FENOC), the
licensed operator of BVPS, Units 1 and
2, acting on behalf of FENGenCo and
FirstEnergy Solutions Corp. (FE
Solutions), a corporate restructuring is

COMMISSION
[Docket No. 52–008]
Dominion Nuclear North Anna, LLC;
Notice of Availability of the
Supplement to the Draft Environmental
Impact Statement for an Early Site
Permit (ESP) at the North Anna ESP
Site and Associated Public Meeting
Notice is hereby given that the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC,
the Commission) has published
Supplement 1 to NUREG–1811, ‘‘Draft
Environmental Impact Statement for an
Early Site Permit (ESP) at the North
Anna ESP Site’’ (SDEIS), and is making
it available for comment. The site is
located near the Town of Mineral in
Louisa County, Virginia, on the
southern shore of Lake Anna.
Dominion Nuclear North Anna, LLC
(Dominion, the applicant) is seeking an
ESP for the North Anna site in
accordance with Subpart A of 10 CFR
Part 52. The ESP process allows
resolution of issues relating to siting
separate from the filing of an
application for a construction permit
(CP) or a combined construction permit
and operating license referred to as a
combined license (COL) for a nuclear
power facility. At any time during the
term of an ESP (up to 20 years), the
permit may be referenced in an
application for a CP or COL.
The application for the ESP was
submitted by letter dated September 25,
2003. In the draft environmental impact
statement (DEIS), published in
December 2004 (69 FR 71854), the staff
evaluated the proposed action (issuance
of an ESP at the North Anna ESP site)
including the no action alternative and
alternative sites to determine if any
alternative site identified was obviously
superior to the proposed site. On April
13, 2006, Dominion submitted Revision
6 to its application. The revision
described changes to the cooling water
system for postulated Unit 3 at the
North Anna ESP site and an increase in
power level for both postulated Units 3
and 4. In view of these changes, the
NRC staff, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.72,
determined to prepare a supplement to
its DEIS. A notice of intent to prepare
a supplement to the draft environmental
impact statement was published in the
Federal Register on May 15, 2006 (71
FR 28392). In addition, on June 21,
2006, Dominion submitted Revision 7 of
the application. Revision 7 of the
application included changes in
response to the staff’s request for
additional information on Revision 6.
The scope of the SDEIS is limited to
the environmental impacts associated
