Effluent Release Report one additional
month. As specified in 10 CFR
50.36a(a)(2), the interval between
submittals must not exceed 12 months.
A one-time exemption is required
because the proposed amendment
would result in the 2008 Radioactive
Effluent Release Report submittal
exceeding the 12-month requirement.

Indiana Michigan Power Company;
Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Units 1
and 2, Environmental Assessment and
Finding of No Significant Impact
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is considering
issuance of an exemption from Title 10
of the Code of Federal Regulations (10
CFR) Part 50, Section 36a(a)(2) [10 CFR
50.36a(a)(2)], for Facility Operating
License Nos. DPR–58 and DPR–74,
issued to Indiana Michigan Power
Company (the licensee), for operation of
the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit
1 and Unit 2, located in Berrien County.
Therefore, as required by 10 CFR 51.21,
the NRC is issuing this environmental
assessment and finding of no significant
impact.
Environmental Assessment
mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
Identification of the Proposed Action
The regulation 10 CFR 50.36(a)(2)
specifies that the Radioactive Effluent
Release Report submittal interval must
not exceed 12 months. By application
dated October 21, 2008 (Agencywide
Documents Access and Management
System (ADAMS) Accession Number
ML082970187), the licensee proposed
an amendment to Technical
Specification 5.6.3 which would change
the submittal date from ‘‘within 90 days
of January 1 of each year’’ (i.e., prior to
April 1, 2009) to ‘‘prior to May 1 of each
year.’’
In the October 21, 2008, application,
the licensee also requested a one-time
exemption from the requirements of 10
CFR 50.36a(a)(2) to support the
implementation of the proposed
amendment which results in the 2008
Radioactive Effluent Release Report
submittal exceeding the 12-month
requirement.
The Need for the Proposed Action
The proposed action is required to
support the implementation of the
proposed amendment to Technical
Specification 5.6.3. This amendment
eliminates an undue administrative
burden by extending the required
submittal date for the Radioactive
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Environmental Impacts of the Proposed
Action
The NRC has completed its safety
evaluation of the proposed action and
concludes that there are no
environmental impacts associated with
the proposed exemption. The details of
the staff’s safety evaluation will be
provided in the exemption that will be
issued as part of the letter to the
licensee approving the exemption to the
regulation.
The proposed action will not
significantly increase the probability or
consequences of accidents. No changes
are being made in the types of effluents
that may be released offsite. There is no
significant increase in the amount of
any effluent released offsite. There is no
significant increase in occupational or
public radiation exposure. Therefore,
there are no significant radiological
environmental impacts associated with
the proposed action.
With regard to potential nonradiological impacts, the proposed
action does not have a potential to affect
any historic sites. It does not affect nonradiological plant effluents and has no
other environmental impact. Therefore,
there are no significant non-radiological
environmental impacts associated with
the proposed action.
Accordingly, the NRC concludes that
there are no significant environmental
impacts associated with the proposed
action.
Environmental Impacts of the
Alternatives to the Proposed Action
As an alternative to the proposed
action, the staff considered denial of the
proposed action (i.e., the ‘‘no-action’’
alternative). Denial of the application
would result in no change in current
environmental impacts. The
environmental impacts of the proposed
action and the alternative action are
similar.
Alternative Use of Resources
The action does not involve the use of
any different resources other than those
previously considered in the Final
Environmental Statement for the Donald
C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2,
dated August 1973, and the Generic
Environmental Impact Statement for
License Renewal of the Donald C. Cook

Agencies and Persons Consulted
On February 9, 2009, the staff
consulted with the Michigan State
official, Mr. Ken Yale, of the Michigan
Department of Environmental Quality,
regarding the environmental impact of
the proposed action. The State official
had no comments.
Finding of No Significant Impact
On the basis of the environmental
assessment, the NRC concludes that the
proposed action will not have a
significant effect on the quality of the
human environment. Accordingly, the
NRC has determined not to prepare an
environmental impact statement for the
proposed action.
For further details with respect to the
proposed action, see the licensee’s letter
dated October 21, 2008. Documents may
be examined, and/or copied for a fee, at
the NRC’s Public Document Room
(PDR), located at One White Flint North,
Public File Area O1 F21, 11555

will be accessible electronically from
