Road, Beaufort, NC 28516.
Activity for Which Permit Is Requested
Take, Introduce Non-Indigenous
Species into Antarctica, and Import into
the USA. The applicant plans to collect
sediment cores and seep invertebrates
from the Larsen B embayment in order
to (1) Characterize trophic relations
between sediment bacteria, clams and
other macro-invertebrates present in
newly-discovered cold seeps; (2)
provide a preliminary assessment of the
genetic population structure of Larsen B
cold seep clams; and (3) characterize the
evolutionary relationship between
Larsen B cold seep clams and other
members of the family Vesicomyidae. In
addition, the applicant will deploy
North Atlantic Right Whale vertebrae
bones and pine wood substrate on eight
moorings scattered through the Larsen B
embayment. If time permits,
invertebrates will be collected from the
whale bone and wood substrates. During
their second season, additional
sediment cores will be collected as well
as invertebrates, and the bone and wood
moorings will be recovered.

In the Matter of Tennessee Valley
Authority (Bellefonte Nuclear Plant
Units 1 and 2); Order
The U.S. Atomic Energy Commission
(predecessor to the U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC or the
Commission)) issued construction
permit (CP) Nos. CPPR–122 and CPPR–
123 to the Tennessee Valley Authority
(TVA or the applicant) on December 24,
1974, authorizing construction of the
Bellefonte Nuclear Plant (Bellefonte or
PO 00000
Frm 00093
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
10969
BLN) Units 1 and 2, respectively, at the
applicant’s site in Jackson County, AL,
on a peninsula at Tennessee River Mile
392 on the west shore of Guntersville
Reservoir, about 6 miles east northeast
of Scottsboro, AL. On March 4, 2003,
the NRC issued an Order amending CP
Nos. CPPR–122 and CPPR–123 by
revising the latest dates for completion
of construction to October 1, 2011, for
BLN Unit 1, and October 1, 2014, for
BLN Unit 2.
On September 14, 2006, the NRC
granted TVA its request to withdraw the
CPs. Until the time of withdrawal, these
facilities were in a deferred plant status
as described in the Commission’s Policy
Statement on Deferred Plants, as
published in the Federal Register on
October 14, 1987 (52 FR 38077).
In a letter dated August 26, 2008, as
supplemented on September 25, 2008,
and on November 24, 2008, TVA has
requested these CPs be reinstated.
The NRC staff has prepared an
‘‘Environmental Assessment and
Finding of No Significant Impact,’’
which was published in the Federal
Register on March 3, 2009 (74 FR 9308).
Under Title 10, Section 51.32, ‘‘Finding
of No Significant Impact,’’ of the Code
of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 51.32),
the Commission has determined that
reinstating the CPs and placing the
facility in a terminated plant status will
not have a significant impact on the
environment.
For further details on this action, see
the TVA application dated August 26,
2008, as supplemented on September
25, 2008, and on November 24, 2008,
and the NRC staff’s letter and safety
evaluation related to the requested
reinstatement of the CPs dated March 9,
2009. Documents may be examined and/
or copied for a fee at the NRC’s Public
Document Room located at One White
Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike (first
floor), and they are accessible through
the Agencywide Documents Access and
Management System (ADAMS)
Electronic Reading Room link at the
NRC Web site, https://www.nrc.gov.
Any person adversely affected by this
Order may request a hearing on this
Order within 60 days of its issuance,
and the request for a hearing is limited
to whether good cause exists for the
reinstatement of the CPs. The NRC will
consider extending the time to answer
or to request a hearing where good cause
is shown. A request for an extension of
time must be directed to the Director of
the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
(NRR), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, and must include a
statement of good cause for the
extension. Requirements for hearing
requests are found in 10 CFR 2.309,
