Nuclear Regulatory Commission December 20, 2021 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing an exemption in response to a December 23, 2020, request from Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC (HDI). The exemption permits HDI to make withdrawals from the Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP) Decommissioning Trust Fund (DTF) for spent fuel management and site restoration activities at PNP without prior notification to the NRC. This exemption is effective upon issuance, but only applies to HDI upon the consummation of the indirect transfer of the license for PNP to Holtec International and the transfer of the operating authority under the license to HDI.
