economic simplified boiling water
reactor (ESBWR) in accordance with the
requirements contained in 10 CFR part
52, ‘‘Licenses, Certifications, and
Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants.’’
The application references an early site
permit (ESP) granted to System Energy
Resources, Inc. for the Grand Gulf ESP
site. The reactor will be identified as
Grand Gulf Unit 3 and located at the
Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS) site
in Claiborne County, Mississippi. A
notice of receipt and availability of this
application was previously published in
the Federal Register (73 FR 14849 on
March 19, 2008).
The NRC staff has determined that
Entergy has submitted information in
accordance with 10 CFR part 2, ‘‘Rules
of Practice for Domestic Licensing
Proceedings and Issuance of Orders,’’
and 10 CFR part 52 that is acceptable for
docketing. The docket number
established for this COL application is
52–024.
The NRC staff will perform a detailed
technical review of the COL application.
Docketing of the COL application does
not preclude the NRC from requesting
additional information from the
applicant as the review proceeds, nor
does it predict whether the Commission
will grant or deny the application. The
Commission will conduct a hearing in
accordance with Subpart L, ‘‘Informal
Hearing Procedures for NRC
Adjudications,’’ of 10 CFR part 2 and
will receive a report on the COL
application from the Advisory
Committee on Reactor Safeguards in
accordance with 10 CFR 52.87, ‘‘Referral
to the Advisory Committee on Reactor
Safeguards (ACRS).’’ If the Commission
finds that the COL application meets the
applicable standards of the Atomic
Energy Act and the Commission’s
regulations, and that required
notifications to other agencies and
bodies have been made, the Commission
will issue a COL, in the form and
containing conditions and limitations
that the Commission finds appropriate
and necessary.
In accordance with 10 CFR part 51,
the Commission will also prepare an
environmental impact statement for the
proposed action. Pursuant to 10 CFR
51.26, and as part of the environmental
scoping process, the staff intends to
hold a public scoping meeting. Detailed
information regarding this meeting will
be included in a future Federal Register
notice.
Finally, the Commission will
sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
announce in a future Federal Register
notice the opportunity to petition for
leave to intervene in the hearing
required for this application by 10 CFR
52.85.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
[EA–08–089]
In the Matter of: Louisiana Energy
Services, L.P. (National Enrichment
Facility); Order Approving Indirect
Transfer of License and Conforming
Amendment
I pursuant thereto. After review of the
Louisiana Energy Services (LES or the
Licensee) is the holder of Special
Nuclear Material License No. SNM–
2010 for the National Enrichment
Facility (NEF), issued by the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC
or Commission), pursuant to 10 CFR
parts 30, 40, and 70. The Licensee is
authorized, by its license, to construct
and operate a uranium enrichment
facility in accordance with the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954 (AEA), as amended,
and 10 CFR parts 30, 40, and 70. The
LES license was issued on June 23,
2006, and is due to expire on June 23,
2036.
II
By letter dated October 19, 2007, the
Licensee proposed to: (1) Restructure
itself from a Limited Partnership (LP) to
a Limited Liability Company (LLC); and
(2) reorganize the ownership
arrangement of Urenco Deelnemingen
BV (UDE), a current limited partner of
the Licensee. No physical changes to the
NEF or operational changes were
proposed.
The Licensee also requested approval
of a conforming license amendment that
would change the Licensee’s name from
Louisiana Energy Services, L.P., to
Louisiana Energy Services, LLC.
Approval of the indirect transfer of
the license and of the conforming
license amendment was requested
pursuant to 10 CFR 70.36. A notice of
consideration of approval was
published in the Federal Register on
January 31, 2008 (73 FR 5882),
including a notice of opportunity to
request a hearing, or to submit written
comments. No comments or requests for
a hearing were submitted in response to
sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
this notice.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 30.34(b), 40.46,
and 70.36, no license granted under
those parts, and no right thereunder to
use byproduct, source, or special
VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:15 Apr 23, 2008 Jkt 214001
nuclear material, shall be transferred,
assigned, or in any manner disposed of,
directly or indirectly, through a transfer
of control of any license, to any person,
unless the Commission shall, after
securing full information, find that the
transfer is in accordance with the AEA,
and gives its consent in writing. The
Commission will approve an
application for the indirect transfer of a
license, if the Commission determines
that the proposed restructuring and
reorganization will not affect the
qualifications of the Licensee to hold
the license, and that the transfer is
otherwise consistent with applicable
provisions of law, regulations, and
orders issued by the Commission
information in the Application and
other information before the
Commission, and relying on the
representations and agreements
contained in the Application, the NRC
staff determined that the proposed
corporate restructuring and indirect
transfer of the license is acceptable and
is otherwise consistent with applicable
provisions of law, regulations, and
orders issued by the Commission,
subject to the conditions set forth below.
The NRC staff has further determined
that the application for the proposed
license amendment complies with the
standards and requirements of the AEA,
and the Commission’s rules and
regulations set forth in Title 10 Chapter
I. The requested indirect transfer of the
license and issuance of the conforming
license amendment will not be inimical
to the common defense and security or
to the health and safety of the public, or
the environment, and the issuance of
the proposed amendment would be in
accordance with 10 CFR part 51 of the
Commission’s regulations, and all
applicable requirements have been
satisfied.
III
Accordingly, pursuant to sections
161b, 161i, and 184 of the Act; 42 U.S.C.
2201(b), 2201(i), and 2234; and 10 CFR
30.34(b), 40.46, and 70.36, it is hereby
ordered that the Application regarding
the indirect transfer of license, as
described herein, is approved, subject to
the following condition, which is also
hereby made a condition of the license:
The Licensee, as stated in the Application,
will abide by all commitments and
representations previously made by the
Licensee with respect to the license.
It is further ordered that the
conforming license amendment for the
indirect transfer of license shall be
issued and made effective at the time
PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\24APN1.SGM
the proposed license transfer is
completed.
It is further ordered that:
—In order to ensure that the NRC is
timely notified of the transfer’s
completion, the Licensee shall inform
the Director of the Office of Nuclear
Material Safety and Safeguards, in
writing, of the date of closing of the
indirect transfer of License No. SNM–
2010, at least one (1) business day
prior to closing; and
—If the indirect transfer of license and
all the above conforming conditions
have not been completed within 60
days from the date of the issuance of
the Order, the Order shall become
null and void; however, on written
application and for good cause
shown, such date may be extended by
order.
This Order is effective upon issuance.
