NRC Votes to Approve Early Site Permit for Clinton Site | Exelon has no plan to build a new nuclear plant at location in near future
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission today voted to approve an Early Site Permit (ESP) for Exelon Generation Company, LLC. The ESP resolves with finality certain environmental, site suitability and emergency planning issues with regard to the possible construction and operation of a new nuclear plant next to the Clinton Power Station in Clinton, Ill. The next step in NRC's permit process is for NRC staff to actually issue the permit, which must occur within 10 days of the commission's vote. Exelon was the first to apply for an ESP, and will be the first company to receive an early site permit under the never before used licensing process. Exelon has not decided to move forward with building a new nuclear plant. "Certain conditions would have to fall into place before Exelon would consider building a plant: a workable solution to the spent fuel disposal problem; community acceptance; the right reactor technology; and the economics must be favorable," said Marilyn Kray, Exelon Nuclear Vice President. The 20-year permit allows Exelon to "bank" a site for a possible power plant; however, it does not authorize construction of a new plant. Should the company decide to build a power plant, it would need to apply for a combined operating license. *
U.S. OKs early site permit for nuclear power plant
Exelon Corp., which sought the agency's first-ever early site permit in September 2003, would have up to 20 years to seek a license from the NRC to build and operate a reactor at the company's Clinton, Illinois, site, where it already has one nuclear reactor generating electricity. The decision is a step toward the Bush administration's goal to expand nuclear power to meet growing U.S. electricity demand. It would take the NRC about 24 months to review and approve any Exelon request to construct a new reactor at the Clinton location, an agency spokesman said. *
Clinton nuclear plant wins permit -- losses assessment
... the DeWitt County Review Board has decided against lowering the assessment for the Clinton Nuclear Plant for taxing purposes. Exelon, AmerGen's parent company, appealed the Supervisor of Assessments $1.1 billion assessment for taxes that'll be paid next year. Corporate executives complained specifically about a $200 million value put on a permit application for a plant expansion. The Review Board deliberated for one hour before deciding to keep the assessment at the level that would raise Exelon's property tax bill for the plant to $8.5 million -- a 66 percent, one-year increase. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission today approved issuing that early site permit. So, AmerGen has won one and lost one today.

September 25, 2003 First applications filed for Early Site Permits - Clinton, North Anna No permits for new nuclear power stations have been issued in the United States since the Three Mile Island accident in 1979. But today, Exelon and Dominion filed applications requesting NRC approval for construction of a standardized design plant at their Clinton (Exelon) and North Anna (Dominion) sites. NRC's application review process is expected to take about 33 months. Each utility would then have twenty years (renewable to forty) to decide on and build a new plant at their site. The utilities have not decided if or when or what to build if their permit is approved. The USDOE contributed towards the cost of preparing the applications.
