SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES DATES: I. Background In accordance with section 51.118 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the NRC is making available for public inspection, final Supplement 57 to the GEIS regarding the renewal of Exelon Generation Company, LLC, operating licenses NPF– 11 and NPF–18 for an additional 20 years of operation for LSCS. Draft Supplement 57 to the GEIS was noticed by the NRC in the Federal Register on February 11, 2016 (81 FR 7378), and was noticed by the Environmental Protection Agency on February 19, 2016 (81 FR 8490). The public comment period on draft Supplement 57 to the GEIS ended on April 4, 2016. The NRC VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:14 Aug 31, 2016 Jkt 238001 received 11 public comment submissions from State and Federal government organizations, public interest organizations, private citizens, and the licensee. The comments received on the draft Supplement 57 were addressed in the final Supplement 57 to the GEIS. Plans’’) 3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) 4 an amendment to the Plans to add Investors Exchange LLC (‘‘IEX’’) as a Participant 5 to the Plans. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the amendment from interested persons. II. Discussion I. Description and Purpose of the Plan Amendment As noted above, the amendment to the Plans adds the IEX as a Participant. On June 17, 2016, the Commission issued an order granting IEX’s application for registration as a national securities exchange.6 A condition of the Commission’s approval was the requirement for IEX to join the Plans. Under Section III(c) of the Plan, any national securities association or national securities exchange, may become a Participant by (i) subscribing to, and submitting for filing with the Commission, the Plan; (ii) executing all applicable contracts made pursuant to the Plan, or necessary to its participation; (iii) paying the applicable ‘‘Participation Fee;’’ and (iv) paying ‘‘provisioning costs to the Processor.’’ The amendment is effective upon filing with the Commission in accordance with Rule 608 of Regulation NMS.7 IEX has satisfied all requirements under the Plans, and has executed a copy of the Plans currently in effect, with the only change being the addition of its name to the CTA and CQ plans. Accordingly, all of the Plan requirements for effecting an amendment to the Plans to add IEX as a Participant have been satisfied. As discussed in Chapter 5 of the final Supplement 57 to the GEIS, the NRC determined that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for LSCS are not so great that preserving the option of license renewal for energy-planning decision makers would be unreasonable. This recommendation is based on: (1) The analysis and findings in the GEIS; (2) information provided in the environmental report and other documents submitted by Exelon Generation Company, LLC; (3) consultation with Federal, State, local, and Tribal government agencies; (4) the NRC staff’s independent environmental review; and (5) consideration of public comments received during the scoping process and on the draft Supplement 57 to the GEIS. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 26th day of August, 2016. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. James G. Danna, Chief, Environmental Review and Projects Branch, Division of License Renewal, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
