SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    TVA (the applicant) has filed an application for an ESP for the 
Clinch River Nuclear Site located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee (ADAMS 
Accession No. ML16139A752), under Section 103 of the Atomic Energy Act 
of 1954, as amended, and part 52 of title 10 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations (10 CFR), ``Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for 
Nuclear Power Plants.'' TVA filed Revision 2 of the application dated 
January 18, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19030A485). Through the 
application, which is currently under review by the NRC staff, the 
applicant seeks an ESP separate from the filing of an application for a 
construction permit (CP) or combined license (COL) for a nuclear power 
facility. The ESP process allows resolution of issues relating to 
siting. At any time during the period of an ESP (up to 20 years), the 
permit holder may reference the permit in an application for a CP or 
COL. The information submitted by the applicant includes certain 
administrative information, as well as technical information submitted 
pursuant to 10 CFR 52.24(a) and 10 CFR 51.105(a). These notices are 
being provided in accordance with the requirements in 10 CFR 
50.43(a)(3).
