(including amendments to the applications) must be submitted to the U.S. 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission in accordance with Sec. 50.4.
    (2) An additional 10 copies of the general information and 30 copies 
of the safety analysis report, or part thereof or amendment thereto, 
must be retained by the applicant for distribution in accordance with 
the written instructions of the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor 
Regulation, or the Director, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and 
Safeguards, as appropriate.
    (3) Each applicant shall, upon notification by the Atomic Safety and 
Licensing Board appointed to conduct the public hearing required by the 
Atomic Energy Act for the issuance of a construction permit, update the 
application and serve the updated copies of the application or parts of 
it, eliminating all superseded information, together with an index of 
the updated application, as directed by the Atomic Safety and Licensing 
Board. In addition, at that time the applicant shall serve a copy of the 
updated application on the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Panel. Any 
subsequent amendment to the application must be served on those served 
copies of the application and must be submitted to the U.S. Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission as specified in Sec. 50.4.
    (4) The applicant must make a copy of the updated application

with the requirements of this part.
    (5) At the time of filing an application, the Commission will make 
available at the NRC Web site, http://www.nrc.gov, a copy of the

facility for public inspection and copying.
    (6) The serving of copies required by this section must not occur 
until the application has been docketed pursuant to Sec. 2.101(a) of 
this chapter. Copies must be submitted to the Commission, as specified 
in Sec. 50.4, to enable the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor 
Regulation, or the Director, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and 
Safeguards, as appropriate, to determine whether the application is 
sufficiently complete to permit docketing.
    (b) Oath or affirmation. Each application for a license, including 
whenever appropriate a construction permit, or amendment of it, and each 
amendment of each application must be executed in a signed original by 
the applicant or duly authorized officer thereof under oath or
