SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NRC
is responsible for regulating the civilian
use of nuclear materials and facilities in
a manner that protects public health and
safety from radiological hazards and
protects common defense and security.
The NRC has statutory authority to
regulate and license uranium recovery
activities through the Atomic Energy
Act of 1954, as amended, and also
through the Uranium Mill Tailings
Radiation Control Act of 1978, which
established programs for the
stabilization and control of mill tailings
at uranium or thorium mill sites. In
addition to the NRC staff’s safety review
of a license application submittal, the
NRC staff conducts an environmental
review, as required under the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as
amended, and the Section 106 process
in accordance with the NHPA.
Section 106 of the NHPA requires
federal agencies to take into account the
effects of their undertakings on historic
properties and allow the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation an
opportunity to review and comment on
the undertaking. Federal agencies carry
out the Section 106 process in
consultation with the State Historic
Preservation Officer, Tribal Historic
Preservation Officer, other federal, state,
and local governmental agencies, tribal
governments, additional consulting
parties, and the public. In accordance
with the NHPA-implementing
regulations in section 800.1(c) of title 36
of the Code of Federal Regulations, the
NRC must complete the Section 106
process prior to making its decision on
the request for the licensing action.
Between 2007 and 2017, the NRC
experienced an increase in the number
of licensing actions for in situ uranium
recovery facilities that resulted in an
increase in the NRC staff’s efforts and
activities related to the NHPA Section
106 reviews. Several factors contributed
to the increase in the scope and
complexity of the Section 106 reviews.
Therefore, the NRC took a number of
steps to improve the Section 106
process for uranium recovery licensing
actions. One of these steps was the
development of this ISG.
On June 18, 2014 (79 FR 34792), the
NRC published the ISG in draft form for
public review and comment. The public
E:\FR\FM\19SEN1.SGM
19SEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 182 / Thursday, September 19, 2019 / Notices
comment period was extended through
November 17, 2014 (79 FR 52374). The
NRC then considered the public
comments on the draft ISG in preparing
the final report (ADAMS Accession No.
ML19212A753). The responses to the
comments can be found in the comment
response appendix (Appendix B of the
ISG; ADAMS Accession No.
ML19212A752).
This ISG is not a rule as defined in the
Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C.
801–808).
