Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS), Meeting of the ACRS Subcommittee on Reliability and Probabilistic Risk Assessment; Notice of Meeting, 22934-22935 [2011-9918]

Download as PDF 22934 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 79 / Monday, April 25, 2011 / Notices site and its dose-mitigating engineered safety features remain acceptable with respect to the radiological consequences of postulated DBAs, since the calculated doses to members of the public meet the exposure guideline values specified in 10 CFR 50.67 and General Design Criteria 19 in Appendix A of 10 CFR Part 50. If the NRC should approve LAR 241, then the proposed EPU will not have a significant human health impact with respect to radiological consequences of DBAs. Radiological Impacts Summary As discussed above, the proposed EPU would not result in any significant radiological impacts. Table 2 summarizes the radiological environmental impacts of the proposed EPU at the PBNP. TABLE 2—SUMMARY OF RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Radioactive Gaseous Effluents .......................... Radioactive Liquid Effluents ............................... Occupational Radiation Doses ........................... Offsite Radiation Doses ...................................... Radioactive Solid Waste ..................................... Spent Nuclear Fuel ............................................. Postulated Design- Basis Accident Doses ......... Alternatives to the Proposed Action As an alternative to the proposed action, the NRC staff considered denial of the proposed EPU (i.e., the ‘‘noaction’’ alternative). Denial of the application would result in no change in the current environmental impacts. However, if the EPU were not approved for the PBNP, other agencies and electric power organizations may be required to pursue other means, such as fossil fuel or alternative fuel power generation, to provide electric generation capacity to offset future demand. Construction and operation of such a fossil-fueled or alternative-fueled plant may create impacts in air quality, land use, and waste management significantly greater than those identified for the proposed EPU at the PBNP. Furthermore, the proposed EPU does not involve environmental impacts that are significantly different from those originally identified in the PBNP Unit 1 or Unit 2 FESs, and the SEIS–23. jdjones on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES Alternative Use of Resources The action does not involve the use of any resources than those previously considered in the FES. Agencies and Persons Consulted In accordance with its stated policy, on April 6, 2011, the NRC staff consulted with the State of Wisconsin official regarding the environmental impact of the proposed action. The State official had no comments. Comments were received from the Wisconsin PSC and incorporated into the EA. The Wisconsin PSC has no objections to the projects as proposed. Finding of No Significant Impact On the basis of the details provided in the EA, the NRC concludes that the VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:21 Apr 22, 2011 Jkt 223001 Amount of additional radioactive gaseous effluents generated would be handled by the existing system. Amount of additional radioactive liquid effluents generated would be handled by the existing system. Occupational doses would continue to be maintained within NRC limits. Radiation doses to members of the public would remain below NRC and EPA radiation protection standards. Amount of additional radioactive solid waste generated would be handled by the existing system. Amount of additional spent nuclear fuel would be handled by the existing system. Calculated doses for postulated design-basis accidents would remain within NRC limits. proposed action of implementing the PBNP EPU 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 application dated April 7, 2009, and supplements dated May 13, 2010, and July 15, 2010 (on environmental issues).

Introduction The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) is considering an application dated September 17, 2010, as supplemented February 10, and March 9, 2011, Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP), LLC, for the renewal of its Special Nuclear Material (SNM) License No.– 2505, under the provisions of 10 CFR Part 72, for the receipt, possession, storage and transfer of spent fuel, reactor-related Greater than Class C (GTCC) waste and other radioactive materials associated with spent fuel storage at the CCNPP site-specific Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI), located near Lusby, Maryland. If granted, the renewed license will authorize the applicant to continue to store spent fuel in a dry cask storage system at the applicant’s CCNPP ISFSI. Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 72.42, the renewal term of the license for the ISFSI would be twenty (20) years; however, the applicant has submitted an exemption request with the license renewal application, which, if granted, would allow the license to be renewed for 40 years. On February 16, 2011, (76 FR 8872) the revised 10 CFR 72.230(b) rule was published changing the renewal term to a period not to exceed 40 years to be effective May 17, 2011. The exemption request is no longer required. The renewal E:\FR\FM\25APN1.SGM 25APN1
