ACTION: Notice of availability. AGENCY: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Steven Courtemanche, Commercial and R&D Branch, Division of Nuclear Materials Safety, Region I, 475 Allendale Road, King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, 19406, telephone (610) 337–5075, fax (610) 337–5269; or by email: src@nrc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: wwhite on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES I. Introduction The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering the issuance of a license amendment to Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc., for Materials License No. 29–30516–01, to authorize release of its facility in Fairfield, New Jersey for unrestricted use and terminate the license. NRC has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) in support of this proposed action in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR part 51. Based on the EA, the NRC has concluded that a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) is appropriate. The amendment will be issued following the publication of this Notice. II. EA Summary The purpose of the proposed action is to authorize the release of the licensee’s Fairfield, New Jersey facility for unrestricted use and terminate the license. Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc., was authorized by NRC from 1999 to use radioactive materials for research and development purposes at the site. On August 27, 2003, Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc., requested that NRC release the facility for unrestricted use. This licensing action was voided because insufficient information was provided by Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc., to allow for the release of the facility for unrestricted use. On October 11, 2005, Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc., provided the additional information requested on August 27, 2003. Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc., has conducted surveys of the facility and provided information to the NRC to demonstrate that the site meets the license termination criteria in subpart E of 10 CFR part 20 for unrestricted release. VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:37 Apr 10, 2006 Jkt 208001 The NRC staff has prepared an EA in support of the license amendment. The facility was remediated and surveyed prior to the licensee requesting the license amendment. The NRC staff has reviewed the information and final status survey submitted by Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc. Based on its review, the staff has determined that there are no additional remediation activities necessary to complete the proposed action. Therefore, the staff considered the impact of the residual radioactivity at the facility and concluded that since the residual radioactivity meets the requirements in subpart E of 10 CFR part 20, a Finding of No Significant Impact is appropriate. III. Finding of No Significant Impact The staff has prepared the EA (summarized above) in support of the license amendment to terminate the license and release the facility for unrestricted use. The NRC staff has evaluated Gibraltar Laboratories, Inc.’s request and the results of the surveys and has concluded that the completed action complies with the criteria in subpart E of 10 CFR part 20. The staff has found that the radiological environmental impacts from the action are bounded by the impacts evaluated by NUREG–1496, Volumes 1–3, ‘‘Generic Environmental Impact Statement in Support of Rulemaking on Radiological Criteria for License Termination of NRC-Licensed Facilities’’ (ML042310492, ML042320379, and ML042330385). Additionally, no non-radiological or cumulative impacts were identified. On the basis of the EA, the NRC has concluded that there are no significant environmental impacts from the proposed action, and has determined not to prepare an environmental impact statement for the proposed action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

[[Page 18365]]

I. Introduction

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering the 
issuance of a license amendment to Multipixel Systems, Inc. for 
Materials License No. 45-25288-01, to authorize release of its facility 
in Ramsey, New Jersey for unrestricted use. NRC has prepared an 
Environmental Assessment (EA) in support of this proposed action in 
accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 51. Based on the EA, 
the NRC has concluded that a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) 
is appropriate. The amendment will be issued following the publication 
of this Notice.

II. EA Summary

    The purpose of the proposed action is to authorize the release of 
the licensee's Ramsey, New Jersey facility for unrestricted use. 
Multipixel Systems, Inc. was authorized by NRC from 1999 to use 
radioactive materials for research and development and instrument 
calibration purposes at the site. On November 23, 2005, Multipixel 
Systems, Inc. requested that NRC release the facility for unrestricted 
use. Multipixel Systems, Inc. has conducted surveys of the facility and 
provided information to the NRC to demonstrate that the site meets the 
license termination criteria in Subpart E of 10 CFR Part 20 for 
unrestricted release.
    The NRC staff has prepared an EA in support of the license 
amendment. The facility was remediated and surveyed prior to the 
licensee requesting the license amendment. The NRC staff has reviewed 
the information and final status survey submitted by Multipixel 
Systems, Inc. Based on its review, the staff has determined that there 
are no additional remediation activities necessary to complete the 
proposed action. Therefore, the staff considered the impact of the 
residual radioactivity at the facility and concluded that since the 
residual radioactivity meets the requirements in Subpart E of 10 CFR 
Part 20, a Finding of No Significant Impact is appropriate.

III. Finding of No Significant Impact

    The staff has prepared the EA (summarized above) in support of the 
license amendment to release the facility for unrestricted use. The NRC 
staff has evaluated Multipixel Systems, Inc.'s request and the results 
of the surveys and has concluded that the completed action complies 
with the criteria in Subpart E of 10 CFR Part 20. The staff has found 
that the radiological environmental impacts from the action are bounded 
by the impacts evaluated by NUREG-1496, Volumes 1-3, ``Generic 
Environmental Impact Statement in Support of Rulemaking on Radiological 
Criteria for License Termination of NRC-Licensed Facilities'' 
(ML042310492, ML042320379, and ML042330385). Additionally, no non-
radiological or cumulative impacts were identified. On the basis of the 
EA, the NRC has concluded that there are no significant environmental 
impacts from the proposed action, and has determined not to prepare an 
environmental impact statement for the proposed action.
