## Opinion text

BUCKLEY, Circuit Judge,
concurring in part and dissenting in part:
I am in substantial agreement with the majority on all but its essential conclusion. As I find that neither the potential post-construction hearing on conformity with the license’s acceptance criteria nor the section 2.206 proceeding is a permissible substitute for the pre-operational hearing mandated by section 189(a)(1) when read in conjunction with section 185, I must dissent.
