No: 25-028 May 8, 2025 CONTACT: Maureen Conley, 301-415-8200 NRC Announces Opportunity to Request Hearing for the Robinson Subsequent License Renewal Application The Nuclear Regulatory Commission announced an opportunity for the public to request a hearing on an application for an additional 20 years of operation for the H.B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant Unit 2, in Hartsville, South Carolina.
Duke Energy Progress LLC filed the application on April 1, seeking to extend the length of the license from 60 to 80 years. Robinsons pressurized-water reactor, about 26 miles northwest of Florence, South Carolina, is currently licensed to operate through July 31, 2030.
The NRC staff has determined the application contains sufficient information for the agency to formally docket the application and begin its safety and environmental reviews.
Docketing the application is not an indication of whether the NRC will renew the license.
The notice in todays Federal Register includes instructions for filing hearing requests.
The filing deadline is July 7.
A copy of the Robinson license renewal application will be available at the Hartsville Memorial Public Library, 147 West College Ave. in Hartsville. More information about subsequent license renewal is available on the NRC website.
