Attachment—Order Extending the
Effectiveness of the Approval of the Transfer
of License and Conforming Amendment
In the Matter of LaCrosseSolutions, LLC; La
Crosse Boiling Water Reactor
EA–19–077; Docket Nos. 50–409 and 72–046;
License No. DPR–45
Order Extending the Effectiveness of the
Approval of the Transfer of License and
Conforming Amendment
I.
LaCrosseSolutions, LLC is the holder of the
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC,
the Commission) Possession Only License
No. DPR–45, with respect to the possession,
maintenance, and decommissioning of the La
Crosse Boiling Water Reactor (LACBWR).
Operation of the LACBWR is no longer
authorized under this license. The LACBWR
facility is located in Vernon County,
Wisconsin.

II.
By Order dated September 24, 2019
(Transfer Order), the Commission consented
to the transfer of the LACBWR license to
Dairyland Power Cooperative and approved a
conforming license amendment in
accordance with Section 50.80, ‘‘Transfer of
licenses,’’ and Section 50.90, ‘‘Application
for amendment of license, construction
permit, or early site permit,’’ of Title 10 of
the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR). By
its terms, the Transfer Order becomes null
and void if the license transfer is not
completed within one year unless, upon
application and for good cause shown, the
Commission extends the Transfer Order’s
September 24, 2020, expiration date. By letter
dated June 24, 2020, LaCrosseSolutions, LLC
submitted a request to extend the
effectiveness of the Transfer Order by six
months, until March 24, 2021. This request
was approved by the NRC on September 1,
2020.
III.
In a subsequent letter dated February 2,
2021, LaCrosseSolutions, LLC submitted a
second request to extend the effectiveness of
the Transfer Order by an additional six
months, until September 24, 2021. As stated
in the February 2, 2021, letter, the LACBWR
Final Status Survey Final Reports (FSSRs),
their associated Release Records, and
responses to NRC staff requests for additional
information (RAIs) are currently under
review by the staff. The letter noted that,
based on the current status of the NRC
review, it is anticipated that additional time
will be needed to address questions or
potential issues identified by the NRC staff
during its review of the RAI responses and
revised LACBWR FSSRs. The letter also
stated that the extension would allow
adequate time for response development by
LaCrosseSolutions, LLC, regarding possible
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001
additional questions or potential issues, and
for the NRC staff to assess the responses
provided by LaCrosseSolutions, LLC and to
make a final determination regarding the
release of the majority of the LACBWR site
for unrestricted use.
Based on the above, the NRC has
determined that LaCrosseSolutions, LLC has
shown good cause for extending the
effectiveness of the Transfer Order by an
additional six months, as requested.
IV.
Accordingly, pursuant to Sections 161b,
161i, and 184 of the Atomic Energy Act of
1954, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Sections
2201(b), 2201(i), and 2234; and 10 CFR 50.80,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the expiration
date of the Transfer Order of March 24, 2021,
is extended until September 24, 2021. If the
subject license transfer from
LaCrosseSolutions, LLC to Dairyland Power
Cooperative is not completed by September
24, 2021, the Transfer Order shall become
null and void; provided, however, that upon
written application and for good cause
shown, such date may be extended by order.
This Order is effective upon issuance.
For further details with respect to this
Order, see the extension request dated
February 2, 2021, which is available
electronically through ADAMS in the NRC
Library at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/
