Commission.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
AGENCY:
Notice is hereby given that
the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing and
publishing for public comment a Draft
Supplement to the Environmental
Assessment (EA) for the irradiator
proposed by Pa’ina Hawaii, LLC
(Pa’ina). On June 23, 2005, Pa’ina
submitted an application to NRC

SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
requesting a license to possess and use
byproduct material in connection with a
proposed underwater irradiator. NRC
completed the Final EA and Finding of
No Significant Impact (FONSI) for this
action on August 10, 2007, and
subsequently issued a license to Pa’ina
on August 17, 2007. The license
authorizes Pa’ina to possess and use
byproduct material (sealed sources) in a
commercial underwater irradiator to be
located adjacent to Honolulu
International Airport on Palekona Street
near Lagoon Drive. NRC is issuing this
Draft Supplement to the EA in response
to a decision of the Atomic Safety and
Licensing Board (Board) from the NRC’s
Atomic Safety and Licensing Board
Panel (ASLBP). As directed by the
Board, this Draft Supplement addresses
the following three areas: (1)
Environmental impacts of accidents that
might occur during the transport of
cobalt-60 sources to and from Pa’ina’s
irradiator, (2) electron-beam technology
as an alternative to cobalt-60 irradiation,
and (3) alternative sites for Pa’ina’s
irradiator.
DATES: The public comment period on
the Draft Supplement begins on the date
of publication of this notice and ends on
January 6, 2011. Written comments
should be submitted as described in the
ADDRESSES section of this notice.
Comments submitted by mail should be
postmarked by January 6, 2011, to
ensure consideration. Comments
received or postmarked after January 6,
2011 will be considered to the extent
practical, but the Commission is able to
assure consideration only for comments
received on or before this date.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
by any one of the following methods.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
By letter dated August 17, 2007, the
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) issued Materials License No. 53–
29296–01 to Pa’ina authorizing
possession and use of byproduct
material (sealed sources) in a
commercial underwater irradiator to be
located immediately adjacent to
Honolulu International Airport on
Palekona Street near Lagoon Drive. Also
on August 17, 2007, NRC published a
Notice of Availability in the Federal
Register for the EA and FONSI prepared
in support of this licensing action (72
FRN 46249). On September 4, 2007,
Concerned Citizens of Honolulu filed
contentions challenging the NRC staff’s
analysis in the Final EA. In an August
27, 2009 decision, the Board found that
the staff needed to supplement the
Pa’ina EA in order to address (1)
environmental impacts of accidents that
might occur during the transport of
cobalt-60 sources to and from Pa’ina’s
irradiator, (2) electron-beam technology
as an alternative to cobalt-60 irradiation,
and (3) alternative sites for Pa’ina’s
irradiator. The Board’s findings on these
issues were affirmed in a July 8, 2010
decision by the NRC’s Commission. In
the Draft Supplement issued today, the
NRC staff addresses each of the issues
identified by the Board.
