II. Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendments to Facility Operating Licenses and Combined Licenses and Proposed No
Significant Hazards Consideration Determination
For the facility-specific amendment requests shown in this notice, the Commission finds that the licensees' analyses provided,
consistent with section 50.91 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) “Notice for public comment; State consultation,” are sufficient to support the proposed determinations that these
amendment requests involve NSHC. Under the Commission's regulations in 10 CFR 50.92, operation of the facilities in accordance
with the proposed amendments would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident
previously evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated;
or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
The Commission is seeking public comments on these proposed determinations. Any comments received within 30 days after the
date of publication of this notice will be considered in making any final determinations.
Normally, the Commission will not issue the amendments until the expiration of 60 days after the date of publication of this
notice. The Commission may issue any of these license amendments before expiration of the 60-day period provided that its
final determination is that the amendment involves NSHC. In addition, the Commission may issue any of these amendments prior
to the expiration of the 30-day comment period if circumstances change during the 30-day comment period such that failure
to act in a timely way would result, for example in derating or shutdown of the facility. If the Commission takes action on
any of these amendments prior to the expiration of either the comment period or the notice period, it will publish in the
Federal Register
a notice of issuance. If the Commission makes a final NSHC determination for any of these amendments, any hearing will take
place after issuance. The Commission expects that the need to take action on any amendment before 60 days have elapsed will
occur very infrequently.
A. Opportunity To Request a Hearing and Petition for Leave To Intervene
Within 60 days after the date of publication of this notice, any person (petitioner) whose interest may be affected by any
of these actions may file a request for a hearing and petition for leave to intervene (petition) with respect to that action.
Petitions shall be filed in accordance with the Commission's “Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure” in 10 CFR part 2. Interested
persons should consult 10 CFR 2.309. If a petition is filed, the Commission or a presiding officer will rule on the petition
and, if appropriate, a notice of a hearing will be issued.
Petitions must be filed no later than 60 days from the date of publication of this notice in accordance with the filing instructions
in the “Electronic Submissions (E-Filing)” section of this document. Petitions and motions for leave to file new or amended
contentions that are filed after the deadline will not be entertained absent a determination by the presiding officer that
the filing demonstrates good cause by satisfying the three factors in 10 CFR 2.309(c)(1)(i) through (iii).
If a hearing is requested, and the Commission has not made a final determination on the issue of no significant hazards consideration,
the Commission will make a final determination on the issue of no significant hazards consideration, which will serve to establish
when the hearing is held. If the final determination is that the license amendment request involves no significant hazards
consideration, the Commission may issue the amendment and make it immediately effective, notwithstanding the request for a
hearing. Any hearing would take place after issuance of the amendment. If the final determination is that the license amendment
request involves a significant hazards consideration, then any hearing held would take place before the issuance of the amendment
unless the Commission finds an imminent danger to the health or safety of the public, in which case it will issue an appropriate
order or rule under 10 CFR part 2.
A State, local governmental body, Federally recognized Indian Tribe, or designated agency thereof, may submit a petition to
the Commission to participate as a party under 10 CFR 2.309(h) no later than 60 days from the date of publication of this
notice. Alternatively, a State, local governmental body, Federally recognized Indian Tribe, or designated agency thereof,
may participate as a non-party under 10 CFR 2.315(c).
For information about filing a petition and about participation by a person not a party under 10 CFR 2.315, see ADAMS Accession
No. ML20340A053 (https://adamswebsearch2.nrc.gov/webSearch2/main.jsp?AccessionNumber=ML20340A053) and the NRC's public website (https://www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/regulatory/adjudicatory/hearing.html#participate).
B. Electronic Submissions (E-Filing)
All documents filed in NRC adjudicatory proceedings, including documents filed by an interested State, local governmental
body, Federally recognized Indian Tribe, or designated agency thereof that requests to participate under 10 CFR 2.315(c),
must be filed in accordance with 10 CFR 2.302. The E-Filing process requires participants to submit and serve all adjudicatory
documents over the internet, or in some cases, to mail copies on electronic storage media, unless an exemption permitting
an alternative filing method, as further discussed, is granted. Detailed guidance on electronic submissions is located in
the “Guidance for Electronic Submissions to the NRC” (ADAMS Accession No. ML13031A056), and on the NRC's public website (https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals.html).
To comply with the procedural requirements of E-Filing, at least 10 days prior to the filing deadline, the participant should
contact the Office of the Secretary by email at Hearing.Docket@nrc.gov, or by telephone at 301-415-1677, to: (1) request a digital identification (ID) certificate which allows the participant (or
their counsel or representative) to digitally sign submissions and access the E-Filing system for any proceeding in which
it is participating; and (2) advise the Secretary that the participant will be submitting a petition or other adjudicatory
document (even in instances in which the participant, or their counsel or representative, already holds an NRC-issued digital
ID certificate). Based upon this information, the Secretary will establish an electronic docket for the proceeding if the
Secretary has not already established an electronic docket.
Information about applying for a digital ID certificate is available on the NRC's public website (https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/getting-started.html). After a digital ID certificate is obtained and a docket is created, the participant must submit adjudicatory documents
in the Portable Document Format. Guidance on
submissions is available on the NRC's public website (*https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/electronic-sub-ref-mat.html*). A filing is considered complete at the time the document is submitted through the NRC's E-Filing system. To be timely,
an electronic filing must be submitted to the E-Filing system no later than 11:59 p.m. ET on the due date. Upon receipt of
a transmission, the E-Filing system time-stamps the document and sends the submitter an email confirming receipt of the document.
The E-Filing system also distributes an email that provides access to the document to the NRC's Office of the General Counsel
and any others who have advised the Office of the Secretary that they wish to participate in the proceeding, so that the filer
need not serve the document on those participants separately. Therefore, applicants and other participants (or their counsel
or representative) must apply for and receive a digital ID certificate before adjudicatory documents are filed in order to
obtain access to the documents via the E-Filing system.
A person filing electronically using the NRC's adjudicatory E-Filing system may seek assistance by contacting the NRC's Electronic
Filing Help Desk through the “Contact Us” link located on the NRC's public website (https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals.html), by email to MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov, or by a toll-free call at 1-866-672-7640. The NRC Electronic Filing Help Desk is available between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m., ET,
Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.
Participants who believe that they have good cause for not submitting documents electronically must file an exemption request,
in accordance with 10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper filing stating why there is good cause for not filing electronically
and requesting authorization to continue to submit documents in paper format. Such filings must be submitted in accordance
with 10 CFR 2.302(b)-(d). Participants filing adjudicatory documents in this manner are responsible for serving their documents
on all other participants. Participants granted an exemption under 10 CFR 2.302(g)(2) must still meet the electronic formatting
requirement in 10 CFR 2.302(g)(1), unless the participant also seeks and is granted an exemption from 10 CFR 2.302(g)(1).
Documents submitted in adjudicatory proceedings will appear in the NRC's electronic hearing docket, which is publicly available
on the NRC's public website (https://adams.nrc.gov/ehd), unless otherwise excluded pursuant to an order of the presiding officer. If you do not have an NRC-issued digital ID certificate
as previously described, click “cancel” when the link requests certificates and you will be automatically directed to the
NRC's electronic hearing docket where you will be able to access any publicly available documents in a particular hearing
docket. Participants are requested not to include personal privacy information such as social security numbers, home addresses,
or personal phone numbers in their filings unless an NRC regulation or other law requires submission of such information.
With respect to copyrighted works, except for limited excerpts that serve the purpose of the adjudicatory filings and would
constitute a Fair Use application, participants should not include copyrighted materials in their submission.

IV. Notice of Issuance of Amendments to Facility Operating Licenses and Combined Licenses and Final Determination of No Significant
Hazards Consideration and Opportunity for a Hearing (Exigent Circumstances or Emergency Situation)
Since publication of the last monthly notice, the Commission has issued the following amendment. The Commission has determined
for this amendment that the application for the amendment complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy
Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commission's rules and regulations. The Commission has made appropriate findings
as required by the Act and the Commission's rules and regulations in 10 CFR chapter I, which are set forth in the license
amendment.
Because of exigent circumstances or emergency situation associated with the date the amendment was needed, there was not time
for the Commission to publish, for public comment before issuance, its usual notice of consideration of issuance of amendment,
proposed NSHC determination, and opportunity for a hearing.
In circumstances where failure to act in a timely way would have resulted, for example, in derating or shutdown of a nuclear
power plant or in prevention of either resumption of operation or of increase in power output up to the plant's licensed power
level (an emergency situation), the Commission may not have had an opportunity to provide for public comment on its NSHC determination.
In such case, the license amendment has been issued without opportunity for comment prior to issuance. Nonetheless, the State
has been consulted by telephone whenever possible.
Under its regulations, the Commission may issue and make an amendment immediately effective, notwithstanding the pendency
before it of a request for a hearing from any person, in advance of the holding and completion of any required hearing, where
it has determined that NSHC is involved. The Commission has applied the standards of 10 CFR 50.92 and has made a final determination
that the amendments involve NSHC. The basis for this determination is contained in the NRC staff safety evaluation related
to each action. Accordingly, the amendment has been issued and made effective as indicated.
For those amendments that involve an emergency situation, the Commission is now providing an opportunity to comment on the
final NSHC determination for each action; comments should be submitted in accordance with Section I of this notice within
30 days of the date of this notice. Any comments received within 30 days of the date of publication this notice will be considered.
For those amendments that have not been previously noticed in the
Federal Register
, within 60 days after the date of publication of this notice, any persons (petitioner) whose interest may be affected by
this action may file a request for a hearing and petition for leave to intervene (petition) with respect to the action. Petitions
shall be filed in accordance with the guidance concerning the Commission's “Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure” in 10
CFR part 2 as discussed in section II.A of this document.
Unless otherwise indicated, the Commission has determined that the amendment satisfies the criteria for categorical exclusion
in accordance with 10 CFR 51.22. Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental
assessment need be prepared for this amendment. If the Commission has prepared an environmental assessment under the special
circumstances provision in 10 CFR 51.12(b) and has made a determination based on that assessment, it is so indicated in the
safety evaluation for the amendment.
For further details with respect to these actions, see the amendment and associated documents such as the Commission's letter
and safety evaluation, which may be obtained
using the ADAMS accession numbers indicated in the following table. The safety evaluation will provide the ADAMS accession
number(s) for the application for amendment and the
Federal Register
citation for any environmental assessment. All of these items can be accessed as described in the “Obtaining Information and
Submitting Comments” section of this document.

| Amendment Date | March 20, 2026. |
| ADAMS Accession No. | ML26077A001. |
| Amendment No. | 203. |
| Brief Description of Amendment | The amendment is an emergency, one-time change to the surveillance requirement (SR) associated with Nine Mile Point Nuclear |
Station, Unit 2, Technical Specification (TS) 3.6.1.3, “Primary Containment Isolation Valves (PCIVs).” Specifically, it adds
a note to TS SR 3.6.1.3.12 to allow a one-time increase in the maximum allowable leakage rate for one main steam isolation
valve. The note also establishes the maximum total allowable leakage rate for all four main steam lines. This one-time change
would apply only during operating cycle 21 (Cycle 21). |

| Public Comments Requested as to Proposed NSHC (Yes/No) | No. |
V. Previously Published Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendments to Facility Operating Licenses and Combined Licenses,
Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination, and Opportunity for a Hearing
The following notice was previously published as separate individual notice. It was published as an individual notice either
because time did not allow the Commission to wait for this monthly notice or because the action involved exigent circumstances.
It is repeated here because the monthly notice lists all amendments issued or proposed to be issued involving NSHC.
For details, including the applicable notice period, see the individual notice in the
Federal Register
on the day and page cited.
