Document Number: 2017-06384
Type: Notice
Date: 2017-04-04
Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Agencies and Commissions
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) received and is considering approval of one amendment request. The amendment request is for Southern California Edison Company, San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1, 2, and 3 (SONGS). This amendment request contains sensitive unclassified non-safeguards information (SUNSI) and safeguards information (SGI). The proposed amendment would revise the Physical Security Plan, Training and Qualification Plan, and Safeguards Contingency Plan and remove the Cyber Security requirements from the Facility Operating Licenses at SONGS to reflect the permanently shutdown and defueled status of the facility. For this amendment request, the NRC proposes to determine that it involves no significant hazards consideration. Because the amendment request contains sensitive unclassified non-safeguards information (SUNSI) and safeguards information (SGI) an order imposes procedures to obtain access to SUNSI and SGI for contention preparation.
