normal or accident conditions, are
expected as a result of granting this
exemption with respect to reporting
requirements to the Navy.
Environmental Impacts of the
Alternatives to the Proposed Action
As an alternative to the proposed
action, the staff considered not issuing
the requested exemptions (no-action
alternative).
The impact of the no-action
alternative would be similar to the
proposed action. Based on the review of
the circumstances surrounding losses of
the IBIS devices, the NRC believes that
both the burden to the licensee of
reporting and the expenditure of NRC
and MML resources performing reactive
inspections after reports of loss of
control of these devices do not enhance
their safe use.
The impact of implementing the noaction alternative will be the same as
the proposed action with respect to
public health because the proposed
action and alternative address device
loss reporting requirements only.
Impacts on water, geology, soils, air
quality, demography, biota, and historic
resources would therefore be similar or
same.

Agencies and Persons Consulted
In accordance with its stated policy,
on November 29, 2018, the staff
consulted with the U.S. Navy MML
National Radiation Program Oversight
Committees regarding the
environmental impact of the proposed
action. State consultation is not
necessary, given that the requested
exemption would apply to the Navy’s
national (and some international)
operations, are not focused on any
particular state, and further, are
generally limited to federally-controlled
facilities and properties.
III. Finding of No Significant Impact
The NRC is considering the issuance
of an exemption and associated license
amendment to the Navy in the form of
a license condition that would exempt
the Navy from the requirements
contained in 10 CFR 20.1802, ‘‘Control
of material not in storage,’’ when the
Navy employs these devices during
exercises or maneuvers and 10 CFR
20.2201, ‘‘Reports of theft or loss of
licensed byproduct material,’’ when
these devices are lost when they are
used during military exercises or
maneuvers.
On the basis of this environmental
assessment, the NRC staff concludes
that the proposed action, issuing the
requested exemptions concerning
certain reporting requirements, 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.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 23rd day
of April, 2019.
