[Docket No. 50-228-LT; ASLBP No. 14-931-01-LT-BD01]
Atomic Safety and Licensing Board; Before Administrative Judge: E. Roy Hawkens, Presiding Officer; In the Matter of Aerotest Operations, Inc. (Aerotest Radiography and Research Reactor); Notice of Hearing (Notice of Closed Evidentiary Hearing)
July 29, 2014.
The Atomic Safety and Licensing Board hereby gives notice that it will convene an evidentiary hearing pursuant to the 10 CFR part 2, Subpart M procedures to receive testimony and exhibits in the proceeding regarding the license transfer application of Aerotest Operations, Inc. and its proposed transferee, Nuclear Labyrinth, LLC (together, the Companies). Because the testimony will focus on proprietary information regarding whether the Companies satisfy financial qualification requirements for a license transfer under 10 CFR 50.33(f), the hearing will be closed to the public.
I. Matters to Be Considered
As set forth by the Licensing Board in its May 2014 Memorandum and Order Ruling on Admissibility of Areas of Controversy, there are two litigable areas of controversy in this proceeding: (1) Whether the Staff correctly concluded that the Companies failed to demonstrate that they have, or with reasonable assurance will have, sufficient funding to conduct activities authorized by the Aerotest Radiography and Research Reactor (ARRR) license if the license is indirectly transferred; and (2) whether the Staff correctly concluded that the Companies failed to demonstrate that there will be sufficient funds to cover the annual cost of spent fuel storage until the Department of Energy accepts ARRR's spent fuel. See Memorandum and Order (Ruling on Admissibility of Areas of Controversy) at 2 (May 22, 2014).1
