SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.106, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is providing notice of the issuance of Combined Licenses (COL), NPF-93 and NPF-94, to South Carolina Electric and Gas (SCE&G) and South Carolina Public Service Authority (Santee Cooper). The (NRC) finds that the applicable standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the Commission's regulations have been met. The NRC finds that any required notifications to other agencies or bodies have been duly made and that there is reasonable assurance that the facility will be constructed and will operate in conformity with the license, the provisions of the Act, and the Commission regulations. Furthermore, the NRC finds that the licensees are technically and financially qualified to engage in the activities authorized, and that issuance of the licenses will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

Accordingly, the COLs were issued on March 30, 2012, and are effective immediately.

II. Further Information

The NRC has prepared a Final Safety Evaluation Report (FSER) and Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) that document the information reviewed and NRC's conclusion. The Commission has also issued its Memorandum and Order documenting its final decision on the uncontested hearing held on October 12-13, 2011, which serves as the Record of Decision in this proceeding. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," details with respect to this action, including the FSER and accompanying documentation included in the combined license package, as well as the Commission's hearing decision, are available online in the NRC Library at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
