[NRC–2012–0044; Docket No. 50–423]
Central Vermont Public Service
Corporation (Millstone Power Station,
Unit 3); Order Approving Application
Regarding Corporate Restructuring
and Conforming Amendment
I
Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc.
(DNC), Central Vermont Public Service
Corporation (CVPS) and Massachusetts
Municipal Wholesale Electric Company
(MMWE) (collectively ‘‘the licensees’’ or
‘‘DNC, Inc., et al.’’) are the co-holders of
the Renewed Facility Operating License
No. NPF–49, which authorizes the
possession, use and operation of
Millstone Power Station, Unit 3 (MPS3).
CVPS is a non-operating owner of a
1.7303% interest in MPS3. DNC is the
majority owner and the licensed
operator. MPS3 is located in the town of
Waterford, Connecticut.

By letter dated September 9, 2011, as
supplemented on November 4, 2011,
April 6, 2012, May 4, 2012, June 26,
2012, and July 19, 2012 (collectively,
´
‘‘the application’’), CVPS and Gaz Metro
´
Limited Partnership (Gaz Metro),
(collectively, ‘‘the Applicants’’),
requested that the U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC), pursuant
to section 50.80 of Title 10 of the Code
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:28 Sep 27, 2012
Jkt 226001
of Federal Regulation (10 CFR), consent
to the direct transfer of CVPS’s 1.7303%
interest in the operating license for
MPS3 that would result from the merger
of CVPS with Green Mountain Power
Corporation (GMP).
Both GMP and CVPS are wholly
´
owned subsidiaries of Gaz Metro, as a
result of the indirect transfer of CVPSs
1.7303% interest in the license for
MPS3, due to the acquisition of CVPS
´
by Gaz Metro approved by the
Commission on June 15, 2012.
According to the application for
approval filed by CVPS in connection
with the merger of CVPS and GMP,
CVPS will merge with and into GMP,
with GMP being the surviving company
called Green Mountain Power
Corporation. The GMP will continue as
a minority co-owner and licensee of
MPS3.
This application does not affect
MMWEs ownership or DNCs ownership
and operation of the facility.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, the
Applicants also requested approval of a
conforming license amendment for
administrative purposes to reflect the
change of name for the co-owner
licensee on the MSP3 license from
‘‘Central Vermont Public Service
Corporation’’ to ‘‘Green Mountain
Power Corporation.’’
No physical changes to the MPS3
facility or operational changes are being
proposed in the application.
Notice of the request for approval and
opportunity for a hearing was published
in the Federal Register on July 20, 2012
(77 FR 42768). No comments or hearing
requests were received.
Under 10 CFR 50.80, no license, or
any right thereunder, shall be
transferred, directly or indirectly,
through transfer of control of the
license, unless the NRC shall give its
consent in writing. Upon review of the
information in the application as
supplemented and other information
before the Commission and relying
upon the representations and
agreements in the application as
supplemented, the NRC staff has
determined that the proposed direct
transfer of control from CVPS to GMP,
as described in the application, will not
affect the qualifications of the holders of
the Renewed Facility Operating License
No. NPF–49, and that the transfer of the
license, to the extent affected by the
proposed merger, is otherwise
consistent with applicable provisions of
law, regulations, and Orders issued by
the Commission, pursuant thereto,
subject to the conditions set forth below.
The NRC staff has further found that the
application for the proposed license
amendment complies with the
PO 00000
Frm 00090
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
59679
standards and requirements of the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended
(the Act), and the Commission’s rules
and regulations set forth in 10 CFR
chapter I; the facilities will operate in
conformity with the application, the
provisions of the Act and the rules and
regulations of the Commission; there is
reasonable assurance that the activities
authorized by the proposed license
amendment can be conducted without
endangering the health and safety of the
public and that such activities will be
conducted in compliance with the
Commission’s regulations; the issuance
of the proposed license amendment will
not be inimical to the common defense
and security or to the health and safety
of the public; and the issuance of the
proposed amendment will be in
accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 of the
Commission’s regulations and all
applicable requirements have been
satisfied. The findings set forth above
are supported by a safety evaluation
(SE) dated September 21, 2012.
III
Accordingly, pursuant to Sections
161b, 161i, 161.o, and 184 of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the
Act), 42 U.S.C. 2201(b), 2201(i), 2201(o),
and 2234; and 10 CFR 50.80, it is hereby
ordered that the application regarding
the proposed direct license transfer is
approved, subject to the following
conditions:
1. The Negation Action Plan provided
to the NRC for review may not be
modified in any respect concerning
decision-making authority over ‘‘safety
issues’’ as defined therein without the
prior written consent of the Director,
Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
2. At least half the members of GMPs
Board of Directors shall be U.S. citizens.
3. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO)
of GMP shall be a U.S. citizen. This
individual shall have the responsibility
and exclusive authority to ensure and
shall ensure that the business and
activities of GMP with respect to the
MPS3 license is at all times conducted
in a manner consistent with the public
health and safety and common defense
and security of the United States.
4. The GMP Board of Directors will
establish a Special Nuclear Committee
(SNC) composed only of U.S. citizens, a
majority of who are not officers or
´
employees of GMP, Gaz Metro, or any
´
other Gaz Metro subsidiaries. The SNC
will report to the GMPC Board of
Directors on a quarterly basis for
informational purposes. The SNC will
make available to the NRC for review
these and any other reports regarding
foreign ownership and control of
nuclear operations.
