UNITED NUCLEAR REGULATORY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 December 11, 2009 Mr. Paul A. Harden Site Vice President FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company Beaver Valley Power Station Mail Stop A-BV-SEB1 P.O. Box 4, Route 168 Shippingport, PA 15077 BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT NO.1 -STATUS OF DECOMMISSIONING FUNDING ASSURANCE (TAC NO. ME0487)

Dear Mr. Harden:

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has reviewed the letter dated July 28, 2009 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML092120553), outlining FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company's (licensee) proposed plan of action to cover shortfalls in providing decommissioning funding assurance and/or decommissioning funding realized in the Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit NO.1 (BVPS-1) Biennial Decommissioning Funding Report that was submitted on March 27,2009 (ADAMS Accession No. ML090970287).

Based on the NRC staff's analysis of the Biennial Decommissioning Funding Report, the NRC staff estimated a projected shortfall in decommissioning funding assurance of $67.5 million. Subsequently, on November 5, 2009, the NRC approved a renewal of the operating license for BVPS-1 for 20 years. The NRC staff has recalculated the licensee's decommissioning funding assurance, including an additional 20 years of earnings credit and the existing parent company guarantee of $80 million described in the licensee's letter dated November 24, 2009 (ADAMS Accession No. ML093380293), and determined that the licensee provides reasonable assurance of adequate decommissioning funding at the time permanent termination of operations is expected.

Accordingly, the NRC staff concludes that no further action is required at this time to demonstrate adequate decommissioning funding assurance, according to NRC standards, for BVPS-1.
