SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Discussion
In response to a letter from TVA dated August 17, 2023 (NNP-23-003,
ADAMS Accession No. ML23229A569), the Commission on November 21, 2023
granted an exemption from certain requirements of paragraph 2.101(a)(5)
of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), which allowed
TVA to submit a construction permit application in two parts with the
information required under 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1) included in the second
part of the application (ADAMS Accession No. ML23045A008).
Tennessee Valley Authority filed with the NRC, pursuant to 10 CFR
part 50, ``Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization
Facilities,'' both parts of the application for a construction permit
to construct a GEH BWRX-300 reactor at the Clinch River Nuclear Site in
Roane County, Tennessee, on April 28, 2025 (NNP-25-003, ADAMS Accession
No. ML25118A209), and May 20, 2025, (NPP-25-004, ADAMS Package
Accession No. ML25140A062), respectively. These notices are being
provided in accordance with the requirements in 10 CFR 50.43(a)(3).
The NRC staff is currently undertaking its acceptance review of
both parts of the application. If both parts of the application are
accepted for docketing, a subsequent Federal Register notice will be
issued that addresses the acceptability of the construction permit
application for docketing and provisions for

participation of the public in the permitting process.
