NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 72-4]


Duke Power Company; Notice of Docketing of the Materials License 
SNM-2503 Amendment; Application for the Oconee Nuclear Station 
Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation

    By letter dated January 19, 1998, Duke Power Company submitted an 
application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) in 
accordance with 10 CFR Part 72 requesting the amendment of the Oconee 
Nuclear Station independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) 
license (SNM-2503) and the Technical Specifications for the ISFSI 
located in Seneca, South Carolina. Duke Power Company is seeking 
Commission approval to amend the materials license and the ISFSI 
Technical Specifications to reflect its corporate name change from Duke 
Power Company to Duke Energy Corporation. The name change is the result 
of a recent merger of Duke Power Company and PanEnergy Corporation.
    This application was docketed under 10 CFR Part 72; the ISFSI 
Docket No. is 72-4 and will remain the same for this action. The 
amendment of an ISFSI license is subject to the Commission's approval.
    The Commission will determine if the amendment presents a genuine 
issue as to whether public health and safety will be significantly 
affected and may issue either a notice of hearing or a notice of 
proposed action and opportunity for hearing in accordance with 10 CFR 
72.46(b)(1) or take immediate action on the amendment in accordance 
with 10 CFR 72.46(b)(2).
    For further details with respect to this application, see the 
application dated January 19, 1998, which is available for public 
inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, 2120 L Street, NW, 
Washington, DC 20555.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 4th day of September 1998.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
William F. Kane,
Director, Spent Fuel Project Office, Office of Nuclear Material Safety 
and Safeguards.
