Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 154 / Monday, August 11, 2014 / Notices
NRC granted the exemption and issued
the amendment concurrently, rather
than in sequence. This included issuing
a combined safety evaluation containing
the NRC staff’s review of both the
exemption request and the license
amendment. The exemption met all
applicable regulatory criteria set forth in
10 CFR 50.12, 10 CFR 52.7, and Section
VIII.A.4 of Appendix D to 10 CFR Part
52. The license amendment was found
to be acceptable as well. The combined
safety evaluation is available in ADAMS
under Accession No. ML14120A445.
Identical exemption documents
(except for referenced unit numbers and
license numbers) were issued to the
licensee for VCSNS Units 2 and 3 (COLs
NPF–93 and NPF–94). These documents
can be found in ADAMS under
Accession Nos. ML14120A422 and
ML14120A426. The exemption is
reproduced (with the exception of
abbreviated titles and additional
citations) in Section II of this document.
The amendment documents for COLs
NPF–93 and NPF–94 are available in
ADAMS under Accession Nos.
ML14120A411 and ML14120A416. A
summary of the amendment documents
is provided in Section III of this
document.

II. Exemption
Reproduced below is the exemption
document issued to VCSNS Units 2 and
3. It makes reference to the combined
safety evaluation that provides the
reasoning for the findings made by the
NRC (and listed under Item 1) in order
to grant the exemption:
1. In a letter dated July 30, 2013 and
as revised by the letters dated August 7
and September 5, 2013, South Carolina
Electric & Gas Company (licensee)
requested from the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (Commission) an
exemption from the provisions of Title
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(10 CFR) Part 52, Appendix D, Section
III.B, ‘‘Design Certification Rule for the
AP1000 Design, Scope, and Contents,’’
as part of license amendment request
(LAR 13–13), ‘‘Changes to the Structures
and Layout of the Turbine Building.’’
For the reasons set forth in Section 3.1
of the NRC staff’s Safety Evaluation,
which can be found at ADAMS
Accession No. ML14120A445, the
Commission finds that:
A. The exemption is authorized by
law;
B. the exemption presents no undue
risk to public health and safety;
C. the exemption is consistent with
the common defense and security;
D. special circumstances are present
in that the application of the rule in this
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:35 Aug 08, 2014
Jkt 232001
circumstance is not necessary to serve
the underlying purpose of the rule;
E. the special circumstances outweigh
any decrease in safety that may result
from the reduction in standardization
caused by the exemption; and
F. the exemption will not result in a
significant decrease in the level of safety
otherwise provided by the design.
2. Accordingly, the licensee is granted
an exemption to the provisions of 10
CFR Part 52, Appendix D, Section III.B,
to allow deviations from the certified
DCD Tier 1 Table 3.3–1 and Figure 3.3–
11B, as described in the licensee’s
request dated July 30, 2013 and revised
on August 7 and September 5, 2013.
This exemption is related to, and
necessary for the granting of License
Amendment No. 12, which is being
issued concurrently with this
exemption.
3. As explained in Section 5.0 of the
NRC staff Safety Evaluation (ADAMS
Accession No. ML14120A445), this
exemption meets the eligibility criteria
for categorical exclusion set forth in 10
CFR 51.22(c)(9). Therefore, pursuant to
10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental
impact statement or environmental
assessment needs to be prepared in
connection with the issuance of the
exemption.
4. This exemption is effective as of
May 12, 2014.
III. License Amendment Request
By letter dated July 30, 2013, the
licensee requested that the NRC amend
the COLs for VCSNS Units 2 and 3,
COLs NPF–93 and NPF–94. The
licensee revised this application on
August 7, and September 5, 2013. The
proposed amendment would depart
from Tier 2 Material previously
incorporated into the UFSAR.
Additionally, these Tier 2 changes
involve changes to Tier 1 Information in
the UFSAR, and the proposed
amendment would also revise the
associated material that has been
included in Appendix C of each of the
VCSNS, Units 2 and 3 COLs. The
requested amendment will revise the
Tier 2 UFSAR information pertaining to
the structures and layout of the turbine
building, found throughout the UFSAR.
These Tier 2 changes require
modifications to particular information
located in Tier 1 Table 3.3–1 and Figure
3.3–11B.
The Commission has determined for
these amendments that the application
complies with the standards and
requirements of the Atomic Energy Act
of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the
Commission’s rules and regulations.
The Commission has made appropriate
findings as required by the Act and the
PO 00000
Frm 00110
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Commission’s rules and regulations in
10 CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in
the license amendment.
A notice of consideration of issuance
of amendment to facility operating
license or combined license, as
applicable, proposed no significant
hazards consideration determination,
and opportunity for a hearing in
connection with these actions, was
published in the Federal Register on
October 1, 2013 (78 FR 60321). No
comments were received during the 60day comment period.
The Commission has determined that
these amendments satisfy the criteria for
categorical exclusion in accordance
with 10 CFR 51.22. Therefore, pursuant
to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental
impact statement or environmental
assessment need be prepared for these
amendments.
IV. Conclusion
Using the reasons set forth in the
combined safety evaluation, the staff
granted the exemption and issued the
amendment that the licensee requested
on July 30, 2013 and revised by letter
dated, August 7, and September 5, 2013.
The exemption and amendment were
issued on May 12, 2014 as part of a
combined package to the licensee
(ADAMS Accession No. ML14120A364).
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 1st day
of August 2014.

1437, regarding the renewal of operating

Frm 00111

license DPR–77 and DPR–79 for an
additional 20 years of operation for
SQN. Supplement 53 to the GEIS
includes the preliminary analysis that
evaluates the environmental impacts of
the proposed action and alternatives to
the proposed action. The NRC’s
preliminary recommendation is that the
adverse environmental impacts of
license renewal for SQN are not great
enough to deny the option of license
renewal for energy-planning
decisionmakers.
III. Public Meetings
The NRC staff will hold public
meetings prior to the close of the public
comment period to present an overview
of the draft plant-specific supplement to
the GEIS and to accept public comment
on the document. Two meetings will be
held at the Soddy-Daisy City Hall, 9835
Dayton Pike, Soddy-Daisy, Tennessee,
37379, on Wednesday, September 17,
2014. The first session will convene at
2:00 p.m. and will continue until 4:00
p.m., as necessary. The second session
will convene at 7:00 p.m. and will
continue until 9:00 p.m., as necessary.
The meetings will be transcribed and
will include: (1) A presentation of the
contents of the draft plant-specific
supplement to the GEIS; and (2) the
opportunity for interested government
agencies, organizations, and individuals
to provide comments on the draft report.
Additionally, the NRC staff will host
informal discussions one hour prior to
the start of each session at the same
location. No comments on the draft
supplement to the GEIS will be accepted
during the informal discussions. To be
considered, comments must be provided
either at the transcribed public meeting
or in writing. Persons may pre-register
to attend or present oral comments at
the meeting by contacting Mr. David
Drucker, the NRC environmental project
manager, at 1–800–368–5642, extension
6223, or by email at David.Drucker@
nrc.gov no later than Wednesday,
September 3, 2014. Members of the
public may also register to provide oral
comments within 15 minutes of the start
of each session. Individual oral
comments may be limited by the time
available, depending on the number of
persons who register. If special
equipment or accommodations are
needed to attend or present information
at the public meeting, the need should
be brought to Mr. Drucker’s attention no
later than Wednesday, September 3,
2014, to provide the NRC staff adequate
notice to determine whether the request
can be accommodated.

public comment period to present an overview of the draft plant-
specific supplement to the GEIS and to accept public comments on the
document.
