Northern States Power Company; Prairie Island Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation; License Amendment Application

Riepilogo

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) reviewed an application by Northern States Power Company (NSPM) for amendment of Special Nuclear Materials License No. SNM-2506 which authorizes NSPM to receive, possess, store, and transfer spent nuclear fuel and associated radioactive materials. The amendment request sought to revise the license conditions to describe the inspection intervals similar to Technical Specifications Surveillance Requirement Frequency, allowing up to 1.25 times the specified intervals to account for scheduling challenges, including but not limited to inclement weather, security drills, and refueling outages.
