SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    Pursuant to Section 103 of the Atomic Energy Act, as amended, and 
part 52 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), 
``Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants,'' 
the applicant,

[[Page 40930]]

TVA, filed an application with the NRC for an ESP in Oak Ridge, 
Tennessee. In accordance with dubpart A of 10 CFR part 52, an applicant 
may seek an ESP separate from the filing of an application for a 
construction permit (CP) or combined license (COL) for a nuclear power 
facility. The ESP process allows resolution of issues relating to 
siting. At any time during the period of an ESP (up to 20 years), the 
permit holder may reference the permit in an application for a CP or 
COL.

II. Further Information

    The NRC will publish subsequent Federal Register notices addressing 
the acceptability of the tendered ESP application for docketing and 
provisions for public participation in the ESP application review 
process.
