NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50-325 AND 50-324]


Carolina Power & Light Company; Notice of Receipt of Application 
for Renewal of Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2 Facility 
Operating License Nos. DPR-71 and DPR-62 for an Additional 20-Year 
Period

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) has 
received an application, dated October 18, 2004, from the Carolina 
Power & Light Company, now doing business as Progress Energy Carolinas, 
Inc., filed pursuant to Section 104b of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, 
as amended, and 10 CFR part 54, to renew Operating License Nos. DPR-71 
and DPR-62 for the Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2. 
Renewal of the licenses would authorize the applicant to operate the 
facility for an additional 20-year period beyond the period specified 
in the respective current operating licenses. The current operating 
licenses for the Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2, expire 
on September 8, 2016, and December 27, 2014, respectively. The 
Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2, are boiling water 
reactors designed by General Electric Corporation, and are located in 
Brunswick County, North Carolina. The acceptability of the tendered 
application for docketing, and other matters including an opportunity 
to request for a hearing, will be addressed in a subsequent Federal 
Register notice.
    Copies of the application are available for public inspection at 
the Commission's Public Document Room (PDR), located at One White Flint 
North, 11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville, Maryland, or 
electronically from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of 
the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) 
under accession number ML043060391. The ADAMS Public Electronic Reading 
Room is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. (Note: Public access to ADAMS has been temporarily 
suspended so that security reviews of publicly available documents may 
be performed and potentially sensitive information removed. Please 
check the NRC's Web site for updates on the resumption of ADAMS 
access.) In addition, the application is available on the NRC's Web 
site at http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/licensing/renewal/applications.html while the application is under review. Persons who do 
not have access to ADAMS or who encounter problems in accessing the 
documents located in ADAMS, should contact the NRC's PDR Reference 
staff at 1-800-397-4209, 301-415-4737, or by e-mail to [email protected].
    The staff has also verified that a copy of the license renewal 
application for the Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2, has 
been provided to the North Carolina University at Wilmington, William 
Randall Library, 601 South College Road, Wilmington, North Carolina.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 10th day of November 2004.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
