[Docket Nos. 50–282, 50–306, 72–10]
In the Matter of: Nuclear Management
Company, LLC; License Nos DPR–42,
DPR–60, SNM–2506; Northern States
Power Company; (Prairie Island
Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and
2) Order Approving Transfer of License
and Conforming Amendment
I.
Northern States Power Company, a
Minnesota corporation (NSPM) and
Nuclear Management Company, LLC
(NMC) are holders of Facility Operating
License No. DPR–42 and DPR–60,
which authorize the possession, use,
and operation of Prairie Island Nuclear
Generating Plant (Prairie Island), Units
1 and 2, and Materials License SNM–
2506, which authorizes the possession,
use, and operation of the Prairie Island
Independent Spent Fuel Storage
Installation (ISFSI). NSPM is authorized
to possess, and NMC is authorized to
use and operate Prairie Island and the
Prairie Island ISFSI. The facilities are
located at the licensees’ site in Goodhue
County, Minnesota.
II.
By letter dated April 16, 2008, as
supplemented by letter dated August 6,
2008, NSPM and NMC requested
approval for NSPM to acquire the
operating authority of the facilities from
NMC following approval of the
proposed license transfer. Subsequently,
NSPM will be responsible for the
operation and maintenance of Prairie
Island and the Prairie Island ISFSI.
NMC will be integrated into the current
NSPM organization, which would be the
sole entity holding both the ownership
and operating authority of the facilities.
The applicants also requested
approval of conforming license
amendments that would replace
references to NMC in the licenses with
references to NSPM to reflect the
transfer of operating authority under the
applicable conditions and
authorizations included in the Prairie
Island licenses. The applicants
proposed no physical changes to the
facilities or operational changes. After
completion of the proposed transfer,
NSPM would become the operator, as
PO 00000

Sfmt 4703
well as continue to be the owner of the
facilities.
Approval of the transfer of the
licensed operating authority and
conforming license amendments are
requested by the applicants pursuant to
Sections 50.80 and 50.90 of Title 10 of
the Code of Federal Regulations (10
CFR). Notice of the request for approval
and opportunity for a hearing were
published in the Federal Register on
June 5, 2008 (73 FR 32055). No
comments and no petitions to intervene
were received.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.80 and 10 CFR
72.50, 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. Upon
review of the information in the
application and other information
before the Commission, and relying
upon the representations and
agreements contained in the
application, the NRC staff has
determined that NSPM is qualified to
continue to hold the ownership interests
in the facilities, and is qualified to
acquire and hold the operating authority
previously held by NMC, and that the
transfer of the operating interests in the
facilities to NSPM described in the
application is otherwise consistent with
applicable provisions of law,
regulations, and orders issued by the
Commission, subject to the conditions
set forth below. The NRC staff has
further found that the applications for
the proposed license amendments
comply with the standards and
requirements of the Atomic Energy Act
of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the
Commission’s rules and regulations set
forth in 10 CFR Chapter I; the facilities
will operate in conformity with the
applications, the provisions of the Act,
and the rules and regulations of the
Commission; there is reasonable
assurance that the activities authorized
by the proposed license amendments
can be conducted without endangering
the health and safety of the public and
that such activities will be conducted in
compliance with the Commission’s
regulations; the issuance of the
proposed license amendments will not
be inimical to the common defense and
security or to the health and safety of
the public; and the issuance of the
proposed amendments will be in
accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 of the
Commission’s regulations and all
applicable requirements have been
satisfied.
The findings set forth above are
supported by NRC staff’s safety
evaluation dated the same day as this
Order.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. 50-282, 50-306, 72-10]
In the Matter of: Nuclear Management Company, LLC; License Nos
DPR-42, DPR-60, SNM-2506; Northern States Power Company; (Prairie
Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2) Order Approving
Transfer of License and Conforming Amendment
I.
Northern States Power Company, a Minnesota corporation (NSPM) and
Nuclear Management Company, LLC (NMC) are holders of Facility Operating
License No. DPR-42 and DPR-60, which authorize the possession, use, and
operation of Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (Prairie Island),
Units 1 and 2, and Materials License SNM-2506, which authorizes the
possession, use, and operation of the Prairie Island Independent Spent
Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). NSPM is authorized to possess, and
NMC is authorized to use and operate Prairie Island and the Prairie
Island ISFSI. The facilities are located at the licensees' site in
Goodhue County, Minnesota.
II.
By letter dated April 16, 2008, as supplemented by letter dated
August 6, 2008, NSPM and NMC requested approval for NSPM to acquire the
operating authority of the facilities from NMC following approval of
the proposed license transfer. Subsequently, NSPM will be responsible
for the operation and maintenance of Prairie Island and the Prairie
Island ISFSI. NMC will be integrated into the current NSPM
organization, which would be the sole entity holding both the ownership
and operating authority of the facilities.
The applicants also requested approval of conforming license
amendments that would replace references to NMC in the licenses with
references to NSPM to reflect the transfer of operating authority under
the applicable conditions and authorizations included in the Prairie
Island licenses. The applicants proposed no physical changes to the
facilities or operational changes. After completion of the proposed
transfer, NSPM would become the operator, as well as continue to be the
owner of the facilities.
Approval of the transfer of the licensed operating authority and
conforming license amendments are requested by the applicants pursuant
to Sections 50.80 and 50.90 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR). Notice of the request for approval and
opportunity for a hearing were published in the Federal Register on
June 5, 2008 (73 FR 32055). No comments and no petitions to intervene
were received.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.80 and 10 CFR 72.50, 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. Upon review of the information in the
application and other information before the Commission, and relying
upon the representations and agreements contained in the application,
the NRC staff has determined that NSPM is qualified to continue to hold
the ownership interests in the facilities, and is qualified to acquire
and hold the operating authority previously held by NMC, and that the
transfer of the operating interests in the facilities to NSPM described
in the application is otherwise consistent with applicable provisions
of law, regulations, and orders issued by the Commission, subject to
the conditions set forth below. The NRC staff has further found that
the applications for the proposed license amendments comply with the
standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended
(the Act), and the Commission's rules and regulations set forth in 10
CFR Chapter I; the facilities will operate in conformity with the
applications, the provisions of the Act, and the rules and regulations
of the Commission; there is reasonable assurance that the activities
authorized by the proposed license amendments can be conducted without
endangering the health and safety of the public and that such
activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's
regulations; the issuance of the proposed license amendments will not
be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and
safety of the public; and the issuance of the proposed amendments will
be in accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 of the Commission's regulations
and all applicable requirements have been satisfied.
The findings set forth above are supported by NRC staff's safety
evaluation dated the same day as this Order.
