1 Where a partial fee for a power reactor operating license has been paid prior to the effective date of this amendment, the amount paid shall be deducted from the fee prescribed by this amendment and the difference will be due when the operating license for 100 pct power is issued.

2 Concurrent unit. A concurrent unit is defined as a power reactor of the same design at a single power station that was subject to concurrent licensing review.

3 When review of the permit, license, approval, or amendment is complete, the expenditures for professional manpower and appropriate support services will be determined and the resultant fee assessed, but in no event will the fee exceed that shown in the schedule of facility fees. When one application for a preliminary design approval or final design approval contains more than one design, the additional approvals are subject to a maximum fee which is the sum of the application fee and approval fee.

4 Charge will be separately determined by the Commission taking into account the professional manpower required to conduct the review multiplied by the applicable cost per man-year, plus any appropriate support services costs incurred. Where a fee has been paid for a facility early site review, the charge will be deducted from the fee for a construction permit issued for that site. A separate charge will not be assessed for a site review where the person requesting the review has an application for a construction permit on file for the same site, except where the application is withdrawn by the applicant or denied by the Commission. The maximum fee for review of a topical report shall not exceed $20,000.

At the time the application is filed, the licensee or applicant shall provide a proposed determination of amendment class and state the basis therefor as part of the amendment or modification request and shall remit the fee corresponding to this determination. The Commission will evaluate the proposed amendment class determination and inform the licensee or applicant if reclassification is required. Reclassification that changes the class of amendment will result in the refund of overcharges to the licensee or applicant or billing the licensee or applicant for additional fees.

2 License amendments or approvals resulting from Commission Orders issued pursuant to 10 CFR 2.204, and amendments resulting in an initial increase in power to 100 percent of the initial design power level are not subject to these fees, except as provided in footnote 1 to $ 170.21. Class I, II, or III amendments which result from a written Commission request for the application may be exempt from fees when the amendment is to simplify or clarify license or technical specifications; the amendment has only minor safety significance, and is issued for the convenience of the Commission.
