Renewed facility operating license No. DPR–35 authorizes operation of PNPS by the licensee at reactor core power levels not in excess of 2,028 megawatts thermal in accordance with the provisions of the PNPS renewed license and its technical specifications. The notice also serves as the record of decision for the renewal of facility operating license No. DPR–35, consistent with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 51.103. As discussed in the final supplemental environmental impact statement (FSEIS) for PNPS, Supplement 47 to NUREG– 1437, ‘‘Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants Regarding Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station,’’ dated July 2007 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML071990020 and ML071990027), the Commission has considered a range of reasonable alternatives that included fossil fuel generation, renewable energy sources, demand-side measures such as energy conservation, and the no-action alternative. The factors considered in the record of decision can be found in the FSEIS for PNPS. PNPS is a boiling water reactor located 4 miles southeast of Plymouth, Massachusetts. The application for the renewed license, ‘‘Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station License Renewal Application,’’ dated January 25, 2006 (ADAMS Accession No. ML060300028), complied with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commission’s regulations. As required by the Act and the Commission’s regulations in 10 CFR Chapter 1, the Commission has made appropriate findings, which are set forth in the license. Prior public notice of the action involving the proposed issuance of the renewed license and of an opportunity for a hearing regarding the proposed issuance of the renewed license was published in the Federal Register on March 27, 2006 (71 FR 15222). For further details with respect to this action, see: (1) Entergy Nuclear Operation, Inc., license renewal application for Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station dated January 25, 2006, as supplemented by letters dated through April 24, 2012; (2) the Commission’s safety evaluation report (NUREG–1891), published in November 2007, as supplemented (ADAMS Accession Nos.
