DPR–19 and DPR–25, issued to Exelon Generation Company, LLC, for operation of the Dresden Nuclear Power Station (DNPS), Units 2 and 3, located in Grundy County, Illinois. The proposed amendment uses a new Criticality Safety Analysis (CSA) methodology for performing the criticality safety evaluation for legacy fuel types in addition to the new ATRIUM 10XM fuel design in the DNPS spent fuel pools (SFPs). In addition, the licensee’s amendment request proposes a change to the DNPS Technical Specification (TS) 4.3.1, ‘‘Criticality,’’ in support of the new CSA. Before any issuance of the proposed license amendment, the NRC will need to make the findings required by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and NRC’s regulations. The NRC has made a proposed determination that the license amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration. Under the NRC’s regulations in § 50.92 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), this means that operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not: (1) E:\FR\FM\05NON1.SGM 05NON1
