Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 42 / Thursday, March 4, 2010 / Notices mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES (i.e., new roads, buildings, and fences); and (3) critical equipment will be ordered, installed, tested and become operational. The licensee indicated that with completion of the three projects noted above by July 30, 2010, and December 15, 2010, HNP will be in full compliance with all the regulatory requirements of 10 CFR 73.55, as issued on March 27, 2009. Notwithstanding the schedular exemptions for these limited requirements, the licensee will continue to be in compliance with all other applicable physical security requirements as described in 10 CFR 73.55 and reflected in HNP’s current NRC approved physical security program. 4.0 Conclusion for Part 73 Schedule Exemption Request The staff has reviewed the licensee’s submittals and concludes that the licensee has provided adequate justification for its request for an extension of the compliance date to July 30, 2010, and December 15, 2010, respectively, with regard to three specified requirements of 10 CFR 73.55. Accordingly, the Commission has determined that pursuant to 10 CFR 73.5, an exemption from the March 31, 2010, compliance date is authorized by law and will not endanger life or property or the common defense and security, and is otherwise in the public interest. Therefore, the Commission hereby grants the requested exemption. The NRC staff has determined that the long-term benefits that will be realized when the installation of additional intrusion detection equipment, relocation of certain security assets, and upgrades to other security related systems are complete at HNP justifies extending the full compliance date with regard to the specified requirements of 10 CFR 73.55. The security measures that HNP needs additional time to implement are new requirements imposed by the March 27, 2009, amendments to 10 CFR 73.55, and are in addition to those required by the security orders issued in response to the events of September 11, 2001. Therefore, it is concluded that the licensee’s actions are in the best interest of protecting the public health and safety through the security changes that will result from granting this exemption. As per the licensee’s request and the NRC’s regulatory authority to grant an exemption from the March 31, 2010, deadline for the three items specified in Attachment 1 of the PEC letter dated November 30, 2009, the licensee is required to be in full compliance with the specified requirements of 10 CFR VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:39 Mar 03, 2010 Jkt 220001 73.55 by July 30, 2010, and December 15, 2010, as applicable. In achieving compliance, the licensee is reminded that it is responsible for determining the appropriate licensing mechanism (i.e., 10 CFR 50.54(p) or 50.90) for incorporation of all necessary changes to its security plans. Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.32, ‘‘Finding of no significant impact,’’ the Commission has previously determined that the granting of this exemption will not have a significant effect on the quality of the human environment (75 FR 3942, dated January 25, 2010). This exemption is effective upon issuance. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 24th day of February 2010. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Allen Howe, Acting Director, Division of Operating Reactor Licensing, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
