Salt Lake City, Utah – March 31, 2022 – EnergySolutions LLC today announced it has
received Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval for the transfer of the Kewaunee
Power Station operating license from Dominion Nuclear Projects Inc. The approval includes the
general license for Kewaunee’s spent nuclear fuel storage facility. The transfer will occur
