NRC ANNOUNCES THE AVAILABILITY OF LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION
FOR R.E. GINNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
Printable Version

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is announcing the availability of an application for a 20-year renewal of the operating license of the R.E. Ginna nuclear power plant. Rochester Gas & Electric Corp. submitted the application on July 30.

The plant is located in Wayne County, New York. The current operating license for the facility expires on September 18, 2009.

A copy of the application will be available on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/licensing/renewal/applications.html.

The application also is available through the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). Help in using ADAMS is available by contacting the NRC Public Document Room staff at 301/415-4737 or 1/800/397-4209, or by sending a message to pdr@nrc.gov via e-mail.

In addition, a copy of the license renewal application is available at the Rochester Public Library, in Rochester, N.Y., and at the Ontario Public Library, in Ontario, N.Y.

The NRC staff is currently conducting an initial review of the application to determine whether it contains enough information for the required formal review. If the application has sufficient information, the NRC will formally "docket," or file, the application and will announce an opportunity to request a hearing.
