SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After
receiving Renewed License No. SNM–
2506, the NSPM staff began to review it
and prepare procedures to implement
new requirements. NSPM submitted an
email on February 9, 2016 (ADAMS
Accession No. ML17324B332),
requesting the NRC to, among other
things, address an apparent error in
License Condition 22(a) of Renewed
License No. SNM–2506 so that NSPM
could establish procedures containing
the correct inspection intervals
acceptance criteria for Renewed License
No. SNM–2506. License Condition 22(a)
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:56 Apr 09, 2018
Jkt 244001
set inspection intervals to be ‘‘not less
than’’ those in the American Concrete
Institute (ACI) Code; however, NRCissued documents demonstrated the
NRC had intended the intervals ‘‘not to
exceed’’ those in the ACI Code.
As a result of its review, the NRC staff
determined that License Condition 22(a)
should read ‘‘not to exceed’’ instead of
‘‘not less than’’ and has amended the
license to correct this error. When the
NRC staff evaluated visual inspection
intervals in its Safety Evaluation Report
(SER) dated December 2015 (ADAMS
Accession No. ML15336A230) for
Renewed License No. SNM–2506,
Section 3.5.1.3 of the SER clearly
articulated the staff’s expectation that
accessible areas of the concrete pads
would be visually inspected at intervals
‘‘not to exceed’’ 5 years. Further, the
SER states the staff determined that the
specific inspection intervals and areas
of inspection coverage in the Aging
Management Program (AMP) for
concrete pads are appropriate based
upon the technical references pertinent
to age-related degradation of concrete in
similar environments, including
American Concrete Institute guides
(ACI) 349.3R–02 (ACI, 2002), ACI
201.1R–08 (ACI, 2008), American
National Standards Institute/American
Society of Civil Engineers guidelines
(ANSI/ASCE) 11–99 (ASCE, 2000), and
reactor renewal guidance provided in
NRC NUREG–1801 (NRC, 2010b). The
‘‘not less than’’ language included in
error is inconsistent with the NRC staff’s
SER and has the unintended
consequence of preventing NSPM from
conducting more frequent inspections.
Accordingly, based on the staff’s
findings, the NRC made the necessary
change and issued Amendment No. 10
to License No. SNM–2506 to correct
License Condition 22(a). Amendment
No. 10 was effective as of its date of
issuance. The NRC staff’s findings are
documented in a SER dated March 6,
2018 (ADAMS Accession No.
ML18057A284), which determined that
the amendment complies with the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended,
and NRC regulations. The issuance of
Amendment No. 10 satisfies the criteria
specified in § 51.22(c)(11) of title 10 of
the Code of Federal Regulations (10
CFR) for a categorical exclusion.
Therefore, the preparation of an
environmental assessment or an
environmental impact statement is not
required.
In accordance with 10 CFR
72.46(b)(2), the NRC has determined
that Amendment No. 10 does not
present a genuine issue as to whether
the public health and safety will be
significantly affected. Therefore, the
