Long Mott Energy, LLC.; Long Mott Generating Station; Construction Permit Application
Summary
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has accepted for review and docketed an application from Long Mott Energy, LLC (LME) for a construction permit for a four-unit reactor facility to be built in Calhoun County, Texas. In addition, the NRC is providing notice that an uncontested hearing will be held on the LME construction permit application at a time and place to be set in the future by the presiding officer for the uncontested hearing. This notice also provides the public an opportunity to request a hearing and petition for leave to intervene (i.e., contested hearing) with respect to that application. The NRC staff is currently conducting a detailed technical review of the construction permit application. If the NRC issues a construction permit, the applicant, LME, would be authorized to construct its proposed reactor facility in accordance with the provisions of the construction permit. Because the application contains Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards Information (SUNSI), this notice includes an order that imposes procedures to obtain access to SUNSI for contention preparation.
