Nuclear Regulatory Commission
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering issuance of an exemption for Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-33, DPR-52, and DPR-68 held by Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA, the licensee) for the operation of Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant, Units 1, 2, and 3 (Browns Ferry). The exemption would exempt TVA from the requirement to install a monitored alarm at the access control point of the storage facilities where the original steam dryers are stored. The exemption is being requested to address a regulatory noncompliance which has resulted in the issuance of minor violations at the Browns Ferry site. The NRC staff is issuing an environmental assessment (EA) and finding of no significant impact (FONSI) associated with the proposed exemption.
