Once a requestor has obtained a
digital ID certificate and downloaded
the EIE viewer, and a docket has been
created, the requestor can then submit a
request for a hearing through the EIE.
Submissions should be in Portable
Document Format (PDF) in accordance
with NRC guidance available on the
NRC public website at https://
www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. A filing is considered
complete at the time the filer submits its
document through the EIE.
To be timely, electronic filings must
be submitted to the E-Filing system no
later than 11:59 p.m. ET 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
Office of the General Counsel and any
others who have advised the Office of
the Secretary that they wish to
participate in the proceeding, so that the
filer need not serve the document on
those participants separately. Therefore,
any others who wish to participate in
the proceeding (or their counsel or
representative) must apply for and
receive a digital ID certificate before a
hearing request is filed so that they can
obtain access to the document via the EFiling system.
A person filing electronically using
the agency’s adjudicatory E-Filing
system may seek assistance though the
‘‘Contact Us’’ link located on the NRC
website at https://www.nrc.gov/sitehelp/e-submittals.html or by calling the
NRC Electronic Filing Help Desk, which
is available between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.,
ET, Monday through Friday, excluding
government holidays. The toll-free help
line number is (866) 672–7640. A
person filing electronically may also
seek assistance by sending an email to
the NRC Electronic Filing Help Desk at
MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov.
Participants who believe that they
have 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, ATTN: 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,

20852, ATTN: 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.
Documents submitted in adjudicatory
proceedings will appear in NRC’s
electronic hearing docket, which is
available to the public at https://
adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless excluded
pursuant to an order of the Commission,
an Atomic Safety and Licensing Board,
or a 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. 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
submissions.
VI
In the absence of a request for hearing,
or written approval of an extension of
time in which to request a hearing,
License No. 47–35507–01 shall be
revoked and all other provisions in Part
III of this Order shall be final within 30
days of the date of this Order without
further order or proceedings. If an
extension of time for requesting a
hearing has been approved, the
provisions in Part V shall be final when
the extension expires if a hearing
request has not been received.
VII
Pursuant to 10 CFR 15.29, the
Commission may not consider an
application for a new license unless all
of the applicant’s delinquent debts to
the NRC have been paid in full.
Failure to meet the requirements of
this Order may subject the Licensee and
its agents to civil penalties and criminal
sanctions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The NRC is considering issuance of
amendments to Renewed Facility
Operating License Nos. NPF–72 and
NPF–77, which authorize Constellation
Energy Generation, LLC, to operate
Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2,
located in Will County, Illinois.
Constellation submitted its license
amendment request in accordance with
section 50.90 of title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulation (10 CFR), by letter
dated March 24, 2023. If approved, the
license amendments would revise TS
SR 3.7.9.2 to allow a temporary increase
in the allowable UHS average
temperature of less than or equal to (≤)
102.8 °F (39.3 degrees Celsius (°C)) from
the date of issuance of the amendments
PO 00000
Frm 00096
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

through September 30, 2023. Therefore,
as required by 10 CFR 51.21, the NRC
performed an environmental assessment
(EA). Based on the results of the EA that
follows, the NRC has determined not to
prepare an environmental impact
statement for the proposed amendments
and is issuing a FONSI.
II. Environmental Assessment
Description of the Proposed Action
The proposed action would revise the
Braidwood TS to allow a temporary
increase in the allowable average
temperature of water withdrawn from
the UHS and supplied to the plant for
cooling from ≤102 °F (38.9 °C) to ≤102.8
°F (39.3 °C) from the date of issuance of
the amendments through September 30,
2023. Specifically, the proposed action
would revise TS SR 3.7.9.2, which
currently states, ‘‘Verify average water
temperature of UHS is ≤102.8 °F until
September 30, 2022. After September
30, 2022, verify average water
temperature of UHS is ≤102 °F’’ to state
‘‘Verify average water temperature of
UHS is ≤102.8 °F until September 30,
2023. After September 30, 2023, verify
average water temperature of UHS is
≤102 °F.’’ Under the current TS, if the
average UHS temperature as measured
at the discharge of the operating
essential service water system pumps is
greater than 102 °F (38.9 °C), TS 3.7.9,
Required Actions A.1 and A.2, would be
entered concurrently and would require
the licensee to place Braidwood in hot
standby (Mode 3) within 12 hours and
cold shutdown (Mode 5) within 36
hours. The proposed action would allow
Braidwood to continue to operate
during times when the UHS indicated
average water temperature exceeds 102
°F (38.9 °C) but is less than or equal to
102.8 °F (39.3 °C) from the date of
issuance of the amendments through
September 30, 2023. The current TS’s
UHS average water temperature limit of
102 °F (38.9 °C) would remain
applicable to all other time periods
beyond September 30, 2023. The
proposed action is nearly identical to
previously approved license
amendments that allowed for the
average water temperature of the UHS to
be ≤102.8 °F for specified periods until
September 30, 2020, September 30,
2021, and September 30, 2022. The NRC
issued EAs for the 2020, 2021, and 2022,
UHS amendments in the Federal
Register on September 10, 2020 (85 FR
55863), July 7, 2021 (86 FR 35831), and
July 20, 2022 (87 FR 43301),
respectively. The NRC issued the
amendments on September 24, 2020,
July 13, 2021, and August 10, 2022,
respectively. The only difference
