Title: Financial Qualifications Requirements for Reactor Licensing [NRC-2014-0161] 
Abstract:

This rulemaking would amend the NRC's regulations to revise financial qualification demonstration requirements for initial license issuance of nuclear power reactors.  The rule would resolve the potential impediment to licensing that industry has identified for some non-electric utility (merchant plant) applicants--e.g., that it is difficult for merchant plant COL applicants to secure project funding in advance of initial license issuance. The scope of this rulemaking would affect applicants for new NRC licenses.
