#  Establishment of Atomic Safety and Licensing Board

Pursuant to delegation by the Commission, *see* 37 FR 28,710 (Dec. 29, 1972), and the Commission's regulations, *see, e.g.,* 10 CFR 2.104, 2.105, 2.300, 2.309, 2.313, 2.318, 2.321, notice is hereby given that an Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (Board) is being established to preside over the following proceeding:

**Tennessee Valley Authority**

**Clinch River Nuclear Site Early Site Permit Application**

This Board is being established pursuant to a Notice of Hearing published in the *Federal Register* , *see* 82 FR 16,436 (Apr. 4, 2017), regarding the May 12, 2016 application filed by Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), pursuant to subpart A of 10 CFR part 52, for an early site permit for the Clinch River Nuclear Site located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Because TVA seeks an early site permit, a “mandatory hearing” will be conducted. *See* 42 U.S.C. 2239(a)(1)(A); 10 CFR 2.104.

The Board is comprised of the following Administrative Judges:

Paul S. Ryerson, Chairman, Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001;

Dr. Gary S. Arnold, Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001;

Dr. Sue H. Abreu, Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001.

All correspondence, documents, and other materials shall be filed in accordance with the NRC E-Filing rule. *See* 10 CFR 2.302.

Dated: June 26, 2017.
