NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50-29]
Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Yankee Atomic Electric Co.,
Yankee Nuclear Power Station; Notice of Receipt of and Availability for
Comment on the Facility License Termination Plan
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is in receipt of and
is making available for public inspection and comment the facility
License Termination Plan (LTP) for the Yankee Nuclear Power Station
(YNPS or the plant). A meeting on the LTP at which the public will be
able to make comments or question the NRC or Yankee Atomic Power
Company attendees will be the subject of a future notice. A proposed
time period for this meeting is fall 1997 and to be held in the
vicinity of the plant. The plant is located in Rowe Township, Franklin
County, Massachusetts. In addition to the future notice in the Federal
Register, the NRC will place advance notices in local newspapers
identifying the date, time, and place of the meeting.
YNPS was permanently shut down on October 1, 1991. Since that time,
the licensee has performed substantial decontamination and
dismantlement at the plant with the intent to restore the site to
``greenfield'' conditions. The LTP was submitted in conformance to NRC
regulations 10 CFR 50.82(a) (9) and (10). The LTP would be approved by
the NRC through a license amendment; this process will offer an
opportunity for a hearing.
The LTP is available for public inspection at the YNPS Local Public
Document Room (LPDR), located in the Library of the Greenfield
Community College Library, 1 College Drive, Greenfield, Massachusetts,
01301 and at the Commission Public Document Room, 2120 L Street, NW.,
Washington, DC 20037. The YNPS LTP is dated May 15, 1997, and can be
located in the public document rooms under Accession Number 9705210388.
Comments regarding the LTP or a proposed meeting date may be
submitted within the 45 day from the issuance of this notice, in
writing, to Mr. Morton B. Fairtile, MS: O11-B20, U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001. He can be reached at
301-415-1442.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 8th day of August 1997.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Marvin M. Mendonca,
Acting Director, Non-Power Reactors and Decommissioning Project
