Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit 1; Exemption 1.0 Background Indiana Michigan Power Company (the licensee) is the holder of Facility Operating License No. DPR–58, which authorizes operation of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit 1 (CNP–1). The license provides, among other things, that the facility is subject to all rules, regulations, and orders of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC, the Commission) now or hereafter in effect. The facility consists of a pressurizedwater reactor located in Berrien County in Michigan. 2.0 Request/Action Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.12, ‘‘Specific exemptions,’’ the licensee has, by letter dated December 16, 2010 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML103630358), requested an exemption from 10 CFR 50.46, ‘‘Acceptance criteria for emergency core cooling systems for light-water nuclear power reactors,’’ and Appendix K to 10 CFR part 50, ‘‘ECCS Evaluation Models.’’ The regulations in 10 CFR 50.46 contain acceptance criteria for the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) for reactors fueled with zircaloy or ZIRLOTM cladding. In addition, Appendix K to 10 CFR part 50 requires that the Baker-Just equation be used to predict the rates of energy release, hydrogen concentration, and cladding oxidation from the metal/water reaction. The Baker-Just equation assumes the use of a zirconium alloy, which is a material different from Optimized ZIRLOTM. The licensee’s requested exemption relates solely to the specific types of cladding material specified in these regulations. As written, the regulations presume the use of zircaloy or ZIRLOTM fuel rod cladding. Thus, an exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR 50.46 and E:\FR\FM\07SEN1.SGM 07SEN1
