SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. 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 of title 10
PO 00000
Frm 00095
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
78255
of the Code of Federal Regulations (10
CFR). Consistent with 10 CFR 51.21, the
NRC has reviewed the requirements in
10 CFR 51.20(b) and 10 CFR 51.22(c)
and determined that an EA is the
appropriate form of environmental
review. Based on the results of the EA,
the NRC is issuing this final FONSI. 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.
The NRC published a draft EA and
FONSI on the proposed action for
public comment in the Federal Register
on October 29, 2015 (80 FR 66584). No
comments were received.
II. Environmental Assessment
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 NRCapproved security plan. 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
E:\FR\FM\16DEN1.SGM

78256
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 241 / Wednesday, December 16, 2015 / Notices
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
the issuance of the requested
amendment would not result in
significant environmental impacts.
Details of the NRC’s evaluation will
be included in a letter to the licensee.
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.

III. 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
