SUBJECT:
THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT 1, LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION REVIEW (FILE NO. ER 07-1737-043-A)
Dear Ms. Cutler:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the staff) is reviewing an application to renew the operating license for Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (TMI-1), located on Three Mile Island, which is situated in the Susquehanna River, in Londonderry Township of Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, about 2.5 miles north of the southern tip of Dauphin County.
TMI-1 is operated by AmerGen Energy Company, LLC (AmerGen). The application for renewal was submitted by AmerGen in a letter dated January 8, 2008, pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 54 (10 CFR Part 54).
The NRC has established that, as part of the staff's review of any nuclear power plant license renewal action, a site-specific Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) to its "Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants," NUREG-1437, will be prepared under the provisions of 10 CFR Part 51, the NRC's regulation that implements the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). In accordance with 36 CFR 800.8(c), the SEIS will include analyses of potential impacts to historic and cultural resources.
In the context of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended, the NRC staff has determined that the area of potential effect (APE) for a license renewal action is the area at the power plant site and its immediate environs that may be impacted by post-license renewal land-disturbing operations or projected refurbishment activities associated with the proposed action. The APE may extend beyond the immediate environs in those instances where post-license renewal land-disturbing operations or projected refurbishment activities specifically related to license renewal may potentially have an effect on known or proposed historic sites. This determination is made irrespective of ownership or control of the lands of interest.
On May 1, 2008, the NRC will conduct two public NEPA scoping meetings. The first session will be held in the afternoon and an identical session will be held later that evening. The afternoon session will be held at the Elks Movie Theatre, 4 West Emaus Street, Middletown, PA 17057.
The evening session will be held at Londonderry Elementary School, 260 Schoolhouse Road, Middletown, PA 17057. The first meeting will convene at 1:30 p.m. and will continue until 4:30 p.m., as necessary. The second meeting will convene at 7:00 p.m. and will continue until 10:00 p.m., as necessary. You and your staff are invited to attend. Your office will receive a J. Cutler
copy of the draft SEIS along with a request for comments. The staff expects to publish the draft SEIS in December 2008. If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Ms. Sarah Lopas, License Renewal Project Manager, by phone at 301-415-1147 or by e-mail at sll2@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/
