Plant; Notice of Receipt and Availability for Comment of License 
Termination Plan

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is in receipt of and is 
making available for public inspection and comment the License 
Termination Plan (LTP) for the Haddam Neck Plant (HNP) located in 
Haddam, Connecticut.

[[Page 51346]]

    Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company (CYAPC, or the licensee) 
announced permanent cessation of power operations of HNP on December 5, 
1996. In accordance with NRC regulations, CYAPC submitted a Post-
Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report (PSDAR) for HNP to the NRC 
on August 22, 1997. The facility is undergoing active decontamination 
and dismantlement.
    In accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(9), all power reactor licensees 
must submit an application for termination of their license. The 
application for termination of license must be accompanied or preceded 
by an LTP to be submitted for NRC approval. If found acceptable by the 
NRC staff, the LTP is approved by license amendment, subject to such 
conditions and limitations as the NRC staff deems appropriate and 
necessary. CYAPC submitted the proposed LTP for HNP by application 
dated July 7, 2000. In accordance with 10 CFR 20.1405 and 10 CFR 
50.82(a)(9)(iii), the NRC is providing notice to individuals in the 
vicinity of the site that the NRC is in receipt of the HNP LTP and will 
accept comments from affected parties. Also, the NRC staff will conduct 
a public meeting in the vicinity of the HNP site in the near future to 
discuss the HNP LTP. A separate notice regarding this meeting will be 
published in the Federal Register when specific arrangements for the 
meeting have been made.
    Written comments should be sent to: Chief, Rules and Directives 
Branch, Division of Administrative Services, Mail Stop T-6 D59, U.S.
