SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that the NRC has issued Subsequent Renewed Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR–44 and DPR–56 to Exelon Generation Company, LLC and PSEG Nuclear, LLC (Exelon, PSEG, or the licensees), for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3, respectively. Exelon is the operator of the facility. Subsequent Renewed Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR– 44 and DPR–56 authorize operation of Unit 2 and Unit 3, respectively, by Exelon at reactor core power levels not in excess of 4,016 megawatts thermal for each unit, in accordance with the provisions of the Peach Bottom, Units 2 and 3 renewed licenses and technical specifications. Notice is also given that the ROD that supports the NRC’s decision to issue Subsequent Renewed Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR– 44 and DPR–56 is available in ADAMS under Accession No. ML20024G429. As discussed in the ROD and the final supplemental environmental impact statement (FSEIS) for Peach Bottom, Units 2 and 3, Supplement 10, Second Renewal, to NUREG–1437, ‘‘Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants, Regarding Subseqent License Renewal for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Unit 2 and Unit 3, Final Report,’’ dated January 2020 (ADAMS Accession No. ML20023A937), the NRC staff considered a range of reasonable alternatives that included a new nuclear power alternative, a supercritical pulverized coal alternative, a natural gas VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:37 Mar 10, 2020 Jkt 250001 combined-cycle alternative, and a combination alternative of natural gas combined-cycle, wind, solar, and purchased power. The FSEIS documents the environmental review, including the determination that the adverse environmental impacts of subsequent license renewal for Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3 are not so great that preserving the option of subsequent license renewal for energy planning decisionmakers would be unreasonable. In addition to the NRC staff’s independent environmental review, the FSEIS conclusion is based on (1) the analysis and findings in the Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants, (2) information provided in the environmental report submitted by Exelon, and (3) consultation with Federal, State, local, and Tribal agencies. Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3 are single-cycle, forced-circulation boiling water reactors located in Peach Bottom Township, near Delta, York County, Pennsylvania. The application for the subsquent renewed licenses, ‘‘Subsequent License Renewal Application, Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Units 2 and 3,’’ dated July 10, 2018 (ADAMS Package Accession No. ML18193A689), as supplemented by letters dated through October 9, 2019, complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the NRC’s regulations. As required by the Act and NRC regulations in chapter 1 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), the NRC has made appropriate findings, which are set forth in the licenses. A public notice of the proposed issuance of the renewed licenses and an opportunity for a hearing was published in the Federal Register on September 6, 2018 (83 FR 45285). An NRC Atomic Safety and Licensing Board denied an intervention petition and terminated the adjudicatory proceeding. An appeal and motions related to a request to file a new contention are pending before the Commission. Because the termination of the proceeding has not been stayed pending Commission review, and the NRC staff has determined that issuance of the subsequent renewed licenses prior to Commission action on the pending appeal and motions would not foreclose or prejudice any Commission action, issuance of the subsequent renewed licenses is permissible. For further details with respect to this action, see: (1) Exelon Generation Company’s subsequent license renewal application for Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3, dated July 10, 2018 (ADAMS PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Package Accession No. ML18193A689), as supplemented by letters dated through October 9, 2019; (2) the NRC’s safety evaluation report, dated Februrary 2020 (ADAMS Package Accession No. ML20044D902); (3) the NRC’s final environmental impact statement (NUREG–1437, Supplement 10, Second Renewal) for Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3, dated January 2020 (ADAMS Accession No. ML20023A937); and (4) the NRC’s ROD (ADAMS Accession No. ML20024G429).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that the NRC has 
issued Subsequent Renewed Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR-44 and 
DPR-56 to Exelon Generation Company, LLC and PSEG Nuclear, LLC (Exelon, 
PSEG, or the licensees), for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 
and 3, respectively. Exelon is the operator of the facility. Subsequent 
Renewed Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR-44 and DPR-56 authorize 
operation of Unit 2 and Unit 3, respectively, by Exelon at reactor core 
power levels not in excess of 4,016 megawatts thermal for each unit, in 
accordance with the provisions of the Peach Bottom, Units 2 and 3 
renewed licenses and technical specifications. Notice is also given 
that the ROD that supports the NRC's decision to issue Subsequent 
Renewed Facility Operating Licenses Nos. DPR-44 and DPR-56 is available 
in ADAMS under Accession No. ML20024G429.
    As discussed in the ROD and the final supplemental environmental 
impact statement (FSEIS) for Peach Bottom, Units 2 and 3, Supplement 
10, Second Renewal, to NUREG-1437, ``Generic Environmental Impact 
Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants, Regarding Subseqent 
License Renewal for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Unit 2 and Unit 
3, Final Report,'' dated January 2020 (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML20023A937), the NRC staff considered a range of reasonable 
alternatives that included a new nuclear power alternative, a 
supercritical pulverized coal alternative, a natural gas combined-cycle 
alternative, and a combination alternative of natural gas combined-
cycle, wind, solar, and purchased power. The FSEIS documents the 
environmental review, including the determination that the adverse 
environmental impacts of subsequent license renewal for Peach Bottom 
Units 2 and 3 are not so great that preserving the option of subsequent 
license renewal for energy planning decisionmakers would be

in the Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of 
Nuclear Plants, (2) information provided in the environmental report 
submitted by Exelon, and (3) consultation with Federal, State, local, 
and Tribal agencies.
    Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3 are single-cycle, forced-circulation 
boiling water reactors located in Peach Bottom Township, near Delta, 
York County, Pennsylvania. The application for the subsquent renewed 
licenses, ``Subsequent License Renewal Application, Peach Bottom Atomic 
Power Station Units 2 and 3,'' dated July 10, 2018 (ADAMS Package 
Accession No. ML18193A689), as supplemented by letters dated through 
October 9, 2019, complies with the standards and requirements of the 
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the NRC's 
regulations. As required by the Act and NRC regulations in chapter 1 of 
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), the NRC has made 
appropriate findings, which are set forth in the licenses.
    A public notice of the proposed issuance of the renewed licenses 
and an opportunity for a hearing was published in the Federal Register 
on September 6, 2018 (83 FR 45285). An NRC Atomic Safety and Licensing 
Board denied an intervention petition and terminated the adjudicatory 
proceeding. An appeal and motions related to a request to file a new 
contention are pending before the Commission. Because the termination 
of the proceeding has not been stayed pending Commission review, and 
the NRC staff has determined that issuance of the subsequent renewed 
licenses prior to Commission action on the pending appeal and motions 
would not foreclose or prejudice any Commission action, issuance of the 
subsequent renewed licenses is permissible.
    For further details with respect to this action, see: (1) Exelon 
Generation Company's subsequent license renewal application for Peach 
Bottom Units 2 and 3, dated July 10, 2018 (ADAMS Package Accession No. 
ML18193A689), as supplemented by letters dated through October 9, 2019;
