 NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 52-033]


Detroit Edison Company Acceptance for Docketing of an Application 
for Combined License (Col) for FERMI 3

    On September 18, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC, 
the Commission) received a combined license (COL) application from 
Detroit Edison Company, dated September 18, 2008, filed pursuant to 
Section 103 of the Atomic Energy Act and Subpart C of Part 52, 
``Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants,'' 
of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR Part 52). The 
site location is in Monroe County, Michigan and identified as Fermi 3. 
A notice of receipt and availability of this application was previously 
published in the Federal Register (73 FR 61916 on October 17, 2008).
    The NRC staff has determined that Detroit Edison Company has 
submitted information in accordance with 10 CFR Part 2, ``Rules of 
Practice for Domestic Licensing Proceedings and Issuance of Orders,'' 
and Part 52 that is sufficiently complete and acceptable for docketing. 
The docket number established for this application is 52-033.
    The NRC staff will perform a detailed technical review of the 
application. Docketing of the COL application does not preclude the NRC 
from requesting additional information from the applicant as the review 
proceeds, nor does it predict whether the Commission will grant or deny 
the application. The Commission will conduct a hearing in accordance 
with Subpart L of 10 CFR Part 2; the notice of hearing and opportunity 
to intervene will be published at a later date. The Commission will 
receive a report on the application from the Advisory Committee on 
Reactor Safeguards in accordance with 10 CFR 52.87. If the Commission 
finds that the application meets the applicable standards of the Atomic 
Energy Act and the Commission's regulations, and that required 
notifications to other agencies and bodies have been made, the 
Commission will issue a COL, in the form and containing conditions and 
limitations that the Commission finds appropriate and necessary.
    A copy of the application is available for public inspection at the 
Commission's Public Document Room located at One White Flint North, 
11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville, Maryland. The 
application is also available at http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/new-reactors/col/Fermi.html and is accessible electronically from the 
Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Public 
Electronic Reading Room on the Internet at the NRC Web site, http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (ADAMS Accession No. ML082730763). 
Persons who do not have access to ADAMS, or who encounter problems in 
accessing the documents located in ADAMS, should contact the NRC Public 
Document Room staff by telephone at 1-
