Constellation Energy Generation, LLC; Christopher M. Crane Clean Energy Center; Draft Environmental Assessment and Draft Finding of No Significant Impact

Official abstract: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment a draft environmental assessment (EA) and draft finding of no significant impact (FONSI) regarding the evaluation of the reasonably foreseeable environmental effects from proposed Federal actions related to reauthorizing power operations at the Christopher M. Crane Clean Energy Center (CCEC). Specifically, the NRC is considering issuance of an exemption and three license amendments, which were requested by Constellation Energy Generation, LLC (CEG) to support the potential reauthorization of power operations at the CCEC. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Dominance Financing (EDF) is a cooperating agency on the draft EA. The DOE EDF's proposed action is a decision on providing Federal financial assistance (a loan guarantee) for refueling and resumption of power operations at the CCEC.
