Plant Site (final SEIS) was published in
the Federal Register on May 21, 2010.
TVA prepared the final SEIS to update
the extensive environmental
information and analyses that exist
respecting the Bellefonte site and the
construction and operation of a nuclear
power plant on that site. On August 20,
2010, the TVA Board of Directors (TVA
Board) approved the expenditure of
$248 million for additional engineering,
design, and licensing activities, as well
as the procurement of long lead-time
components for the partially complete
Bellefonte Unit 1. This decision will
help maintain Unit 1 as a viable
alternative to meet the projected need
for base load generation on the TVA
system in 2018–2020. Bellefonte Unit 1
is a 1,260-megawatt (MW) Babcock and
Wilcox (B&W) -designed pressurized
light water reactor. It is anticipated that
the TVA Board will be asked to approve
completion and operation of Unit 1 next
year, depending on the results of a new
TVA Integrated Resource Plan (IRP),
which is scheduled for completion in
spring 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: With
almost 37,000 MW of net dependable
summer generating capacity, TVA
operates the nation’s largest public
power system, producing 4 percent of
all the electricity in the nation. TVA
provides electricity to most of
Tennessee and parts of Virginia, North
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi,
and Kentucky. It serves about 9 million
people in this seven-state region
through 155 power distributors and 56
directly served large industries and
Federal facilities. The TVA Act requires
the TVA power system to be selfsupporting and operated on a nonprofit
basis and directs TVA to sell power at
rates as low as are feasible. TVA power
is supplied by three nuclear plants, 11
coal-fired plants, 12 gas-fired plants, 29
hydroelectric dams, a pumped-storage
facility, a wind farm, a methane-gas
cofiring facility, and several small solar
photovoltaic facilities and through
several power purchase agreements.
TVA transmits electricity from these

facilities over almost 16,000 miles of
transmission lines.
This final SEIS supplements and
updates the original TVA Final
Environmental Statement for Bellefonte
Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 (May 1974),
hereafter referred to as the 1974 FES; the
TVA Final Environmental Impact
Statement for the Bellefonte Conversion
Project (October 1997); the U.S.
Department of Energy’s Final
Environmental Impact Statement for the
Production of Tritium in a Commercial
Light Water Reactor (March 1999),
which TVA adopted; and the TVA
Bellefonte Nuclear Plant Units 3 and 4,
Combined License Application Part 3,
Environmental Report, Revision 1
(October 2008), hereafter referred to as
the COLA ER. Where pertinent, the final
SEIS incorporates by reference, utilizes,
tiers from, and updates information
from this substantial environmental
record.
The final SEIS also tiers from and
incorporates by reference two TVA
programmatic reviews, Energy Vision
2020 Integrated Resource Plan Final
Programmatic Environmental Impact
Statement (December 1995) and
Reservoir Operations Study Final
Programmatic Environmental Impact
Statement (May 2004). In June 2009,
TVA began work on a new IRP for
meeting future demand on the TVA
power system over the next 20 years.
The new IRP is scheduled to be
completed in spring 2011.
Background
The Bellefonte site is located on a
1,600-acre peninsula on the western
shore of Guntersville Reservoir at
Tennessee River Mile 392, near the
town of Hollywood, Alabama. After
completing an environmental statement
for the project and receiving approval to
begin construction from the Atomic
Energy Commission, now the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC), TVA
commenced construction of two B&W
pressurized-water reactors at the
Bellefonte site in 1974. TVA halted
construction in 1988 when forecasted
load growth began to decrease.
Currently, Units 1 and 2 are in
‘‘deferred’’ plant status, a designation by
the NRC that construction permits for
the facility exist, but construction is not
currently active.
In 2006, TVA joined NuStart Energy
Development LLC to participate in a
demonstration of NRC’s new combined
licensing process. Using the Bellefonte
site, TVA submitted a Combined
License Application (COLA) to the NRC
for two AP1000 units (designated as
Bellefonte Units 3 and 4) in October
2007. This application is pending. TVA
