II. Introduction The NRC is considering a request to amend Provisional Operating License No. DPR–5, and Facility Operating License Nos. DPR–26 and DPR–64, issued to ENO for operation of Indian Point, including the general-licensed Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation, Docket No. 72–51, located in Westchester County, NY, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90. Therefore, as required by 10 CFR 51.21 and 10 CFR 51.33, the NRC has prepared a draft EA documenting its finding. The requested amendment would permit licensee security personnel to use certain firearms and ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms laws or regulations that otherwise prohibit such actions. asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES III. Draft Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact Identification of the Proposed Action The proposed action would permit security personnel at Indian Point, in the performance of their official duties, to transfer, receive, possess, transport, import, and use certain firearms, and large capacity ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be owned or possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms laws, or regulations that otherwise prohibit such actions. VerDate Sep<11>2014 23:37 Oct 28, 2015 Jkt 238001 The proposed action is in accordance with ENO’s application dated August 20, 2013, as supplemented by letters dated November 21, 2013, May 13 and July 24, 2014, and January 16, 2015, and citing letters dated April 27 and October 27, 2011, and January 4, 2012. The Need for the Proposed Action The proposed action would allow the transfer, receipt, possession, transportation, importation and use of those firearms and devices needed in the performance of official duties required for the protection of Indian Point and associated special nuclear materials, consistent with the Indian Point NRC-approved security plan. Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Action The NRC has completed its evaluation of the proposed action and concludes that the proposed action would only allow the use of those firearms and devices necessary to protect Indian Point and associated special nuclear material, consistent with the Indian Point NRC-approved security plant. Therefore, the proposed action would not significantly increase the probability or consequences of accidents. In addition, the proposed action would not change the types and the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite. There would also be no significant increase in occupational or public radiation exposure. Therefore, there would be no significant radiological environmental impacts associated with the proposed action. The proposed action would not impact land, air, or water resources, including biota. In addition, the proposed action would not result in any socioeconomic or environmental justice impacts or impacts to historic and cultural resources. Therefore, there would also be no significant nonradiological environmental impacts associated with the proposed action. Accordingly, the NRC concludes that issuance of the requested amendment would not result in significant environmental impacts. The NRC will publish in the Federal Register a copy of the final environmental assessment as part of the final finding of no significant impact. Environmental Impacts of the Alternatives to the Proposed Action As an alternative to the proposed action, the staff considered denying the proposed action (i.e., the ‘‘no-action’’ alternative). Denial of the license amendment request would result in no change in current environmental conditions at Indian Point.

Agencies and Persons Consulted The staff did not consult with any Federal Agency or New York state agencies regarding the environmental impact of the proposed action. IV. Finding of No Significant Impact The licensee has requested a license amendment to permit licensee security personnel, in the performance of their official duties, to transfer, receive, possess, transport, import, and use certain firearms, and large capacity ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be owned or possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms laws, or regulations that would otherwise prohibit such actions. On the basis of the information presented in this environmental assessment, the NRC concludes that the proposed action would not cause any significant environmental impact and would not have a significant effect on the quality of the human environment. In addition, the NRC has determined that an environmental impact statement is not necessary for the evaluation of this proposed action.

II. Introduction

    The NRC is considering a request to amend Renewed Facility 
Operating License No. DPR-59, including the general licensed 
Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation, issued to ENO for 
operation of the JAFNPP located in Oswego County, New York, in 
accordance with 10 CFR 50.90. Therefore, as required by 10 CFR 51.21 
and 10 CFR 51.33, the NRC has prepared a draft EA and FONSI documenting 
its finding. The requested amendment would permit licensee security 
personnel to use certain firearms and ammunition feeding devices not 
previously permitted, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal 
firearms laws or regulations that otherwise prohibit such actions.

III. Draft Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant 
Impact

Identification of the Proposed Action

    The proposed action would permit security personnel at the JAFNPP, 
in the performance of official duties, to transfer, receive, possess, 
transport, import, and use certain firearms and large capacity 
ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be owned or 
possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms 
laws, or regulations, that otherwise prohibit such actions.
    The proposed action is in accordance with ENO's application dated 
August 30, 2013, as supplemented by letters dated November 12, 2013, 
May 14 and July 11, 2014, and January 15, 2015.

The Need for the Proposed Action

    The proposed action would allow the transfer, receipt, possession, 
transportation, importation and use of those firearms and devices 
needed in the performance of official duties required for the 
protection of the JAFNPP and associated special nuclear materials, 
consistent with the JAFNPP NRC approved security plan.

Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Action

    The NRC has completed its evaluation of the proposed action and 
concludes that the proposed action would only allow the use of those 
firearms and devices necessary to protect JAFNPP and associated special 
nuclear material, consistent with the JAFNPP NRC-

[[Page 66586]]

approved security plant. Therefore, the proposed action would not 
significantly increase the probability or consequences of accidents. In 
addition, the proposed action would not change the types and the 
amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite. There would also 
be no significant increase in occupational or public radiation 
exposure. Therefore, there would be no significant radiological 
environmental impacts associated with the proposed action.
    The proposed action would not impact land, air, or water resources, 
including biota. In addition, the proposed action would not result in 
any socioeconomic or environmental justice impacts or impacts to 
historic and cultural resources. Therefore, there would also be no 
significant non-radiological environmental impacts associated with the 
proposed action.
    Accordingly, the NRC concludes that the issuance of the requested 
amendment would not result in significant environmental impacts.
    The NRC will publish in the Federal Register a copy of the final 
environmental assessment as part of the final finding of no significant 
impact.

Environmental Impacts of the Alternatives to the Proposed Action

    As an alternative to the proposed action, the NRC staff considered 
denying the proposed action (i.e., the ``no-action'' alternative). 
Denial of the license amendment request would result in no change in 
current environmental conditions at the JAFNPP.

Alternative Use of Resources

    The proposed action would not involve the use of any resources.

Agencies and Persons Consulted

    The staff did not consult with any Federal Agency or New York state 
agencies regarding the environmental impact of the proposed action.

IV. Finding of No Significant Impact

    The licensee has requested a license amendment to permit licensee 
security personnel, in the performance of official duties, to transfer, 
receive, possess, transport, import, and use certain firearms and large 
capacity ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be 
owned or possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal 
firearms laws, or regulations that would otherwise prohibit such 
actions.
    On the basis of the information presented in this environmental 
assessment, the NRC concludes that the proposed action would not cause 
any significant environmental impact and would not have a significant 
effect on the quality of the human environment. In addition, the NRC 
has determined that an environmental impact statement is not necessary 
for the evaluation of this proposed action.
    Other than the licensee's letter dated August 30, 2013, there are 
no other environmental documents associated with this review. This 
document is available for public inspection as indicated above.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 22nd day of October 2015.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
