No antitrust changes found on Watts Bar-2

摘要

In addition to what is reported elsewhere in this section, the developments listed below have recently occurred in applications for new reactor licenses and permits. Watts Bar-2 One of the requirements that must be met in this proceeding—an application for an operating license, in the two-stage process under 10 CFR Part 50, which was the only way power reactors could be licensed before 10 CFR Part 52 was put in place—is a determination that there have been no significant antitrust changes since the review that was conducted as part of the construction permit application. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission announced in the March 28 Federal Register that it has rendered a finding of no significant antitrust changes on the Tennessee Valley Authority's application to operate the 1177-MWe pressurized water reactor near Spring City, Tenn. The deadline for requests for reevaluation was April 27.
