Nuclear Management Company, LLC,
Palisades Nuclear Plant; Notice of
Availability of the Final Supplement 27
to the Generic Environmental Impact
Statement for License Renewal of
Nuclear Plants, Regarding the License
Renewal of Palisades Nuclear Plant
Notice is hereby given that the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC,
Commission) has published a final
plant-specific supplement to the
‘‘Generic Environmental Impact
Statement for License Renewal of
Nuclear Plants’’ (GEIS), NUREG–1437,
regarding the renewal of operating
license DPR–20 for the Palisades
Nuclear Plant (Palisades) for an
additional 20 years of operation.
Palisades is located on the eastern shore
of Lake Michigan in Covert Township
on the western side of Van Buren
County, Michigan, approximately 4.5
miles south of the city limits of South
Haven, Michigan. Possible alternatives
to the proposed action (license renewal)
include no action and reasonable
alternative energy sources.
As discussed in Section 9.3 of the
final Supplement 27, based on: (1) The
analysis and findings in the GEIS; (2)
the Environmental Report submitted by
Nuclear Management Company, LLC; (3)
consultation with Federal, State, and
local agencies; (4) the staff’s own
independent review; and (5) the staff’s
consideration of public comments, the
recommendation of the staff is that the
Commission determine that the adverse
environmental impacts of license
renewal for Palisades are not so great
that preserving the option of license
renewal for energy-planning decision
makers would be unreasonable.
The final Supplement 27 to the GEIS
is publicly available at the NRC Public
Document Room (PDR), located at One
White Flint North, 11555 Rockville
Pike, Rockville, Maryland, or from the
NRC’s Agencywide Documents Access
and Management System (ADAMS). The
