Proposed RuleNuclear Regulatory Commission

AP1000 Design Certification Renewal

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend its regulations to renew the AP1000 design certification and incorporate Revision 20 of the AP1000 design control document. The purpose of this rulemaking action is to update the AP1000 design to be consistent with changes made to the design during the licensing, construction, and operation of Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 3 and 4. This rulemaking incorporates AP1000 design control document Revision 20, which includes updates made to the AP1000 design to represent a current, construction-validated design. The NRC also proposes to issue an environmental assessment supporting this rule.

NoticeNuclear Regulatory Commission

Fermi America LLC (dba Fermi America); Project Matador Advanced Energy and Intelligence Campus AP1000 Units 1-4; Project Matador Nuclear Units 1-4; Draft Environmental Impact Statement

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment a draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The draft EIS is in response to a Combined License (COL) application submitted by Fermi America for the proposed construction and operation of four AP1000 advanced passive pressurized-water reactors--designated as Project Matador Nuclear Units 1-4 (PMN Units 1-4). PMN Units 1-4 would be located at the Project Matador Advanced Energy and Intelligence Campus (Project Matador campus). The draft EIS evaluates the environmental impacts of the proposed action of issuing a COL that would allow the construction of PMN Units 1-4, as well as the environmental impacts of the no-action alternative (i.e., denying the COL application).
