2016-12-30; vol. 81 # 251 - Friday, December 30, 2016 81 FR 96347 - Increase in the Maximum Amount of Primary Nuclear Liability Insurance
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Final rule. Effective Date: This final rule is effective on January 1, 2017. 10 CFR Part 140 Summary The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its regulations to increase the required amount 1 of primary nuclear liability insurance from $375 million to $450 million for each nuclear reactor that is licensed to operate, is designed for the production of electrical energy, and has a rated capacity of 100,000 electrical kilowatts or more. This change conforms to the provision in the Price-Anderson Amendments Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100-408) (Price-Anderson Act) that the amount of primary financial protection required of licensees by the NRC shall be the maximum amount available at reasonable cost and on reasonable terms from private sources. 1 The title listed in the information submitted by the NRC for the Unified Agenda was “Increase in the Maximum Limit of Primary Nuclear Liability Insurance.” The title was changed here to reflect that the regulation makes reference to “Maximum Amount.” The use of the term “Maximum Limit” is an incorrect description of the statutory requirement and the regulation revision.
