allow NRC to determine if denial of
disposal constitutes a serious and
immediate threat to public health and
safety or common defense and security.
10 CFR part 62 also provides that the
Commission may grant an exemption
from the requirements in this Part upon
application of an interested person or
upon its own initiative.

Notice of Intent and Opportunity to
Provide Written Comments AREVA
Enrichment Services LLC Eagle Rock
Enrichment, Idaho Falls, ID
tjames on PRODPC75 with NOTICES
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
ACTION: Notice of Intent (NOI).
SUMMARY: AREVA Enrichment Services
(AES) LLC submitted the original
license application on December 30,
2008, that proposes the construction,
operation and decommissioning of a gas
centrifuge uranium enrichment facility
to be located near Idaho Falls, Idaho. On
April 24, 2009, AREVA resubmitted the
application to request an enrichment
capacity increase. The U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC), in
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and
10 CFR Part 51, announces its intent to
prepare an Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS) evaluating this
proposed action. The EIS will examine
the potential environmental impacts of
the proposed facility.
DATES: NRC invites public comments on
the appropriate scope of issues to be
considered in the EIS. The public
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 217001
scoping process begins with publication
of this NOI. Written comments
submitted by mail should be
postmarked by no later than June 19,
2009, to ensure consideration.
Comments mailed after that date will be
considered to the extent practical. The
NRC will conduct a public scoping
meeting in Idaho Falls to assist in
defining the appropriate scope of the
EIS, and to help identify the significant
environmental issues that need to be
addressed in detail. The meeting date,
times and location are listed below:
• Meeting date: June 4, 2009.
• Meeting location: Shilo Inn, 780
Lindsay Boulevard, Idaho Falls, Idaho
83402.
• Scoping meeting time: 6:30 p.m. to
9:30 p.m.
ADDRESSES: Members of the public are
invited and encouraged to submit
written comments regarding the
appropriate scope and content of the
EIS. Comments may be sent to the Chief,
Rules and Directives Branch, Mail Stop
TWB–05–B01, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington, DC 20555–
0001. Please note Docket No. 70–7015
when submitting comments. Also
comments may be sent electronically to
EagleRock.EIS@nrc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
general or technical information
associated with the license review of the
AES application, please contact Breeda
Reilly at (301) 492–3110. For general
information on the NRC NEPA or the
environmental review process related to
the AES application, please contact
Gloria Kulesa at (301) 415–5308.
Information and documents
associated with the AES project,
including the license application
(submitted on December 30, 2008), are
available for public review through our
electronic reading room: https://
www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html
and on the NRC’s AREVA Eagle Rock
Enrichment Facility Web page: https://
www.nrc.gov/materials/fuel-cycle-fac/
arevanc.html. Documents may also be
obtained from NRC’s Public Document
Room at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission Headquarters, 11555
Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville,
Maryland.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
1.0 Background
AES submitted a license application
and an Environmental Report for a gas
centrifuge uranium enrichment facility
to the NRC on December 30, 2008. The
NRC will evaluate the potential
environmental impacts associated with
the proposed enrichment facility in
parallel with the review of the license

application. This environmental
evaluation will be documented in draft
and final EISs in accordance with NEPA
and NRC’s implementing regulations
contained in 10 CFR part 51.
If NRC later finds AES’ complete
license application to be acceptable for
review, a Notice of Hearing and
Opportunity to Petition for Leave to
Intervene will be published in a future
Federal Register notice. The purpose of
the present notice is to inform the
public that the NRC staff will prepare an
EIS as part of the review of the
application, and to encourage the public
to participate in the environmental
scoping process as defined in 10 CFR
51.29.
2.0 AREVA Eagle Rock Enrichment
Facility
The facility, if licensed, would enrich
uranium for use in manufacturing
commercial nuclear fuel for use in
power reactors. Feed material would be
natural (not enriched) uranium in the
form of uranium hexafluoride (UF6)
which contains the uranium-235
isotope. AES proposes to use centrifuge
technology to enrich this isotope in the
UF6 to up to 5 percent by weight. The
centrifuge would operate at below
atmospheric pressure. The capacity of
the plant would be up to 6.6 million
separative work units (SWU) (SWU
relates to a measure of the work used to
enrich uranium). The enriched UF6
would be transported to a fuel
fabrication facility. The depleted UF6
would be stored on site until it is sold,
disposed of commercially, or taken by
the Department of Energy.
3.0 Alternatives to be Evaluated
No-Action—The no-action alternative
would be to not build the proposed gas
centrifuge uranium enrichment facility.
Under this alternative, the NRC would
not approve the license application.
This serves as a baseline for
comparison.
Proposed Action—The proposed
action involves the construction,
operation, and decommissioning of a
gas centrifuge uranium enrichment
facility located near Idaho Falls, Idaho.
The applicant would be issued an NRC
license under the provisions of 10 CFR
Parts 30, 40, and 70. Other alternatives
not listed here may be identified
through the scoping process.
4.0 Environmental Impact Areas to be
Analyzed
The following areas have been
tentatively identified for analysis in the
EIS:
• Land Use: Plans, policies and
controls;
