NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-341-LA; ASLBP No. 20-966-02-LA-BD01]


DTE Electric Company; Establishment of Atomic Safety and 
Licensing Board

    Pursuant to delegation by the Commission, see 37 FR 28,710 (Dec. 
29, 1972), and the Commission's regulations, see, e.g., 10 CFR 2.104, 
2.105, 2.300, 2.309, 2.313, 2.318, 2.321, notice is hereby given that 
an Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (Board) is being established to 
preside over the following proceeding:

DTE Electric Company

(Fermi 2)

    This proceeding involves a challenge to an application by DTE 
Electric Company for a license amendment to the operating license for 
the Fermi 2 nuclear reactor located in Monroe County, Michigan. The 
requested amendment would, inter alia, eliminate a license renewal 
condition to replace spent fuel pool storage racks containing Boraflex 
based on a proposal to install neutron absorbing inserts. In response 
to a notice filed in the Federal Register, see 85 FR 728, 731 (Jan. 7, 
2020), Citizens' Resistance at Fermi 2 (CRAFT) filed a petition to 
intervene. See Petition of [CRAFT] For Leave to Intervene and For a 
Hearing Request to Invalidate a License Extension Condition by a 
License Amendment Request (Mar. 9, 2020).
    The Board is comprised of the following administrative judges:

Paul S. Ryerson, Chairman, Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, 
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001
Dr. Sue H. Abreu, Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, U.S. Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001
Dr. Gary S. Arnold, Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, U.S. 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001

    All correspondence, documents, and other materials shall be filed 
in accordance with the NRC E-Filing rule. See 10 CFR 2.302.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In its memorandum referring CRAFT's Petition to Intervene to 
the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel for appropriate action 
in accordance with 10 CFR 2.346(i), the Office of the Secretary 
stated:
    The petition includes some discussion of the criteria and 
proposed NRC staff findings regarding a no significant hazards 
consideration determination. As stated in 10 CFR 50.58(b)(6), no 
petition or other request for review of, or hearing on, the staff's 
no significant hazards consideration determination will be 
entertained by the Commission. Accordingly, this referral memorandum 
is not to be construed as reflecting a determination that CRAFT is 
entitled to a review of, or hearing on, the staff's no significant 
hazards consideration determination.
