participant, or its counsel or
representative, already holds an NRCissued digital ID certificate). Based upon
this information, the Secretary will
establish an electronic docket for the
hearing in this proceeding if the
Secretary has not already established an
electronic docket.
Information about applying for a
digital ID certificate is available on the
NRC’s public Web site at https://
www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/
getting-started.html. System
requirements for accessing the ESubmittal server are detailed in the
NRC’s ‘‘Guidance for Electronic
Submission,’’ which is available on the
agency’s public Web site at https://
www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html.
Participants may attempt to use other
software not listed on the Web site, but
should note that the NRC’s E-Filing
system does not support unlisted
software, and the NRC Meta System
Help Desk will not be able to offer
assistance in using unlisted software.
If a participant is electronically
submitting a document to the NRC in
accordance with the E-Filing rule, the
participant must file the document
using the NRC’s online, Web-based
submission form. In order to serve
documents through the Electronic
Information Exchange System, users
will be required to install a Web
browser plug-in from the NRC’s Web
site. Further information on the Webbased submission form, including the
installation of the Web browser plug-in,
is available on the NRC’s public Web
site at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html.
Once a participant has obtained a
digital ID certificate and a docket has
been created, the participant can then
submit a request for hearing or petition
for leave to intervene. Submissions
should be in Portable Document Format
(PDF) in accordance with NRC guidance
available on the NRC’s public Web site
at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. A filing is considered
complete at the time the documents are
submitted through the NRC’s E-Filing
system. To be timely, an electronic
filing must be submitted to the E-Filing
system no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern
Time on the due date. Upon receipt of
a transmission, the E-Filing system
time-stamps the document and sends
the submitter an email notice
confirming receipt of the document. The
E-Filing system also distributes an email
notice that provides access to the
document to the NRC’s Office of the
General Counsel and any others who
have advised the Office of the Secretary
that they wish to participate in the
VerDate Sep<11>2014

proceeding, so that the filer need not
serve the documents on those
participants separately. Therefore,
applicants and other participants (or
their counsel or representative) must
apply for and receive a digital ID
certificate before a hearing request/
petition to intervene is filed so that they
can obtain access to the document via
the E-Filing system.
A person filing electronically using
the NRC’s adjudicatory E-Filing system
may seek assistance by contacting the
NRC Meta System Help Desk through
the ‘‘Contact Us’’ link located on the
NRC’s public Web site at https://
www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html, by email to
MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov, or by a tollfree call at 1–866–672–7640. The NRC
Meta System Help Desk is available
between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., Eastern
Time, Monday through Friday,
excluding government holidays.
Participants who believe that they
have a good cause for not submitting
documents electronically must file an
exemption request, in accordance with
10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper
filing requesting authorization to
continue to submit documents in paper
format. Such filings must be submitted
by: (1) First class mail addressed to the
Office of the Secretary of the
Commission, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington, DC 20555–
0001, Attention: Rulemaking and
Adjudications Staff; or (2) courier,
express mail, or expedited delivery
service to the Office of the Secretary,
Sixteenth Floor, One White Flint North,
11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville,
Maryland 20852, Attention: Rulemaking
and Adjudications Staff. Participants
filing a document in this manner are
responsible for serving the document on
all other participants. Filing is
considered complete by first-class mail
as of the time of deposit in the mail, or
by courier, express mail, or expedited
delivery service upon depositing the
document with the provider of the
service. A presiding officer, having
granted an exemption request from
using E-Filing, may require a participant
or party to use E-Filing if the presiding
officer subsequently determines that the
reason for granting the exemption from
use of E-Filing no longer exists.
Documents submitted in adjudicatory
proceedings will appear in the NRC’s
electronic hearing docket which is
available to the public at https://
ehd1.nrc.gov/ehd/, unless excluded
pursuant to an order of the Commission,
or the presiding officer. Participants are
requested not to include personal
privacy information, such as social
security numbers, home addresses, or

home phone numbers in their filings,
unless an NRC regulation or other law
requires submission of such
information. However, in some
instances, a request to intervene will
require including information on local
residence in order to demonstrate a
proximity assertion of interest in the
proceeding. With respect to copyrighted
works, except for limited excerpts that
serve the purpose of the adjudicatory
filings and would constitute a Fair Use
application, participants are requested
not to include copyrighted materials in
their submission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that the Director, Office of
Nuclear Reactor Regulation, has issued
a director’s decision (ADAMS Accession
No. ML15183A164) on a petition filed
by the petitioner on June 18, 2012
(ADAMS Accession No. ML12171A409).
The petition was supplemented on
November 16, 2012, January 16, 2013,
and February 6, 2013 (ADAMS
Accession Nos. ML12325A748,
ML13029A643, and ML13109A075,
respectively).
The petitioner requested that the NRC
order SCE to submit a license
amendment application for the design
and installation of the SONGS, Units 2
and 3, replacement steam generators.
As the basis of the request, the
petitioner asserted that the licensee
violated section 50.59 of Title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
‘‘Changes, Tests, and Experiments,’’
when the steam generators for SONGS,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:24 Aug 06, 2015
Jkt 235001
Units 2 and 3, were replaced in 2010
and 2011, without a license amendment
request.
On January 16, 2013, the petitioner
met with the NRC’s Petition Review
Board (PRB). The meeting provided the
petitioner and the licensee an
opportunity to provide additional
information and to clarify issues cited in
the petition. During the PRB meeting,
the petitioner further requested that the
NRC suspend SCE’s licenses until they
are amended. The transcript for that
meeting was treated as a supplement to
the petition and is available in ADAMS
under Accession No. ML13029A643.
The NRC sent a copy of the proposed
director’s decision to the petitioner and
the licensee for comment on February
27, 2015 (ADAMS Accession Nos.
ML15020A121 and ML15020A165,
respectively). The petitioner and the
licensee were asked to provide
comments within 30 days on any part of
the proposed director’s decision that
was considered to be erroneous or any
issues in the petition that were not
addressed. Comments were received
from the petitioner and are addressed in
an attachment to the final director’s
decision. The licensee had no comments
on the proposed director’s decision;
however, the licensee did provide a
response to the petitioner’s comments.
The NRC staff reviewed the response
from the licensee and determined that,
because the licensee’s comments are
direct rebuttals to the petitioner’s
comments and raised no concerns with
the director’s decision, no changes to
the director’s decision are required as a
result of these comments.
The Director of the Office of Nuclear
Reactor Regulation has determined that
the requests for the NRC to order the
licensee to submit a license amendment
application for the design and
installation of the SONGS, Units 2 and
3, replacement steam generators and to
suspend SCE’s licenses until they are
amended be denied. The reasons for this
decision are explained in the director’s
decision (DD–15–07) pursuant to 10
CFR 2.206, ‘‘Requests for action under
this subpart,’’ of the Commission’s
regulations.
The NRC will file a copy of the
director’s decision with the Secretary of
the Commission for the Commission’s
review in accordance with 10 CFR
2.206. As provided by this regulation,
the director’s decision will constitute
the final action of the Commission 25
days after the date of the decision unless
the Commission, on its own motion,
institutes a review of the director’s
decision in that time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that the Director,
Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, has issued a director's decision
(ADAMS Accession No. ML15183A164) on a petition filed by the petitioner
on June 18, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12171A409). The petition was
supplemented on November 16, 2012, January 16, 2013, and February 6,
2013 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML12325A748, ML13029A643, and ML13109A075,
respectively).
The petitioner requested that the NRC order SCE to submit a license
amendment application for the design and installation of the SONGS,
Units 2 and 3, replacement steam generators.
As the basis of the request, the petitioner asserted that the
licensee violated section 50.59 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal

steam generators for SONGS, Units 2 and 3, were replaced in 2010 and

On January 16, 2013, the petitioner met with the NRC's Petition
Review Board (PRB). The meeting provided the petitioner and the
licensee an opportunity to provide additional information and to
clarify issues cited in the petition. During the PRB meeting, the
petitioner further requested that the NRC suspend SCE's licenses until
they are amended. The transcript for that meeting was treated as a
supplement to the petition and is available in ADAMS under Accession
No. ML13029A643.
The NRC sent a copy of the proposed director's decision to the
petitioner and the licensee for comment on February 27, 2015 (ADAMS
Accession Nos. ML15020A121 and ML15020A165, respectively). The
petitioner and the licensee were asked to provide comments within 30
days on any part of the proposed director's decision that was
considered to be erroneous or any issues in the petition that were not
addressed. Comments were received from the petitioner and are addressed
in an attachment to the final director's decision. The licensee had no

the response from the licensee and determined that, because the
licensee's comments are direct rebuttals to the petitioner's comments
and raised no concerns with the director's decision, no changes to the
director's decision are required as a result of these comments.
The Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has
determined that the requests for the NRC to order the licensee to
submit a license amendment application for the design and installation

suspend SCE's licenses until they are amended be denied. The reasons
for this decision are explained in the director's decision (DD-15-07)
pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206, ``Requests for action under this subpart,''
of the Commission's regulations.
The NRC will file a copy of the director's decision with the
Secretary of the Commission for the Commission's review in accordance
with 10 CFR 2.206. As provided by this regulation, the director's
decision will constitute the final action of the Commission 25 days
after the date of the decision unless the Commission, on its own
motion, institutes a review of the director's decision in that time.
