II. Introduction The NRC is coordinating activities in accordance with Section 108 of NEIMA to develop a report identifying best practices for establishment and operation of CABs. The contents of this report, scheduled to be issued to Congress no later than July 14, 2020, will include (1) a description of the type of topics that might be brought before a CAB; (2) how the board’s input could inform the decision-making process of stakeholders for various decommissioning activities; how the board could interact with the NRC and other Federal regulatory bodies to promote dialogue between the licensee and affected stakeholders; and (3) how the board could offer opportunities for public engagement throughout all phases of the decommissioning process. The report will also include a discussion of the composition of existing CABs and best practices identified during the establishment and operation of such boards, including logistical considerations, frequency of meetings, the selection of board members, etc. In developing a best practices report, and as required by NEIMA, the NRC is consulting with host States, communities within the emergency planning zone of an applicable nuclear power reactor, and existing CABs. This consultation includes hosting 11 Category 3 public meetings and at least 1 nationwide webinar. These public meetings are being held in locations that ensure geographic diversity across the United States, with priority given to States that (1) have a nuclear power reactor currently undergoing the decommissioning process; and (2) requested a public meeting under the provisions of NEIMA in accordance PO 00000 Frm 00084 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 with the Federal Register (FR) notice published on March 18, 2019 (84 FR 9841). At NRC Category 3 public meetings, the public is invited to participate by providing comments and asking questions. In addition to these public meetings, the NRC has developed a questionnaire to collect information regarding the areas identified in NEIMA with respect to the creation and operation of CABs.

At that time, there were no precedents for applications for ISFSIs, there was not a consolidated set of guidance, and information technology did not exist to provide guidance electronically for ISFSIs. The staff issued RG 3.53 to expedite the staff’s reviews of ISFSI applications, which were anticipated under the new requirements in title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) part 72, ‘‘Licensing Requirements for the Independent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High Level Radioactive Waste, and Reactor-Related Greater than Class C Waste.’’ Since 1982, many of the guidance documents and regulatory positions listed in the RG have been withdrawn or superseded by more current guidance. Examples of new or revised staff guidance for ISFSIs include RG 3.48, ‘‘Standard Format and Content for the Safety Analysis Report for an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation or Monitored Retrievable Storage Installation (Dry Storage),’’ RG 3.50, ‘‘Standard Format and Content for a Specific License Application for An Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation or Monitored Retrievable Storage Facility,’’ RG 3.60, ‘‘Design of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (Dry Storage),’’ and RG 3.62, ‘‘Standard Format and Content for the Safety Analysis Report for Onsite Storage of Spent Fuel Storage Casks.’’ These guidance documents incorporate the lessons learned during the licensing process and from operational experiences with ISFSIs. The current information technology available today makes the numerous RGs in the areas of design, construction, and operation of an ISFSI readily available electronically on the NRC’s public website and it is easy for applicants to navigate and identify these guides.

II. Introduction

    The NRC is coordinating activities in accordance with Section 108 
of NEIMA to develop a report identifying best practices for 
establishment and operation of CABs. The contents of this report, 
scheduled to be issued to Congress no later than July 14, 2020, will 
include (1) a description of the type of topics that might be brought 
before a CAB; (2) how the board's input could inform the decision-
making process of stakeholders for various decommissioning activities; 
how the board could interact with the NRC and other Federal regulatory 
bodies to promote dialogue between the licensee and affected 
stakeholders; and (3) how the board could offer opportunities for 
public engagement throughout all phases of the decommissioning process. 
The report will also include a discussion of the composition of 
existing CABs and best practices identified during the establishment 
and operation of such boards, including logistical considerations, 
frequency of meetings, the selection of board members, etc.
    In developing a best practices report, and as required by NEIMA, 
the NRC is consulting with host States, communities within the 
emergency planning zone of an applicable nuclear power reactor, and 
existing CABs. This consultation includes hosting 11 Category 3 public 
meetings and at least 1 nationwide webinar. These public meetings are 
being held in locations that ensure geographic diversity across the 
United States, with priority given to States that (1) have a nuclear 
power reactor currently undergoing the decommissioning process; and (2) 
requested a public meeting under the provisions of NEIMA in accordance 
with the Federal Register (FR) notice published on March 18, 2019 (84 
FR 9841). At NRC Category 3 public meetings, the public is invited to 
participate by providing comments and asking questions.
    In addition to these public meetings, the NRC has developed a 
questionnaire to collect information regarding the areas identified in 
NEIMA with respect to the creation and operation of CABs. The NRC is 
requesting responses from existing CABs in the vicinity of power 
reactors undergoing decommissioning, similar established stakeholder 
groups, or local government organizations. The questionnaire is 
available at https://www.nrc.gov/waste/decommissioning/neima-local-comm-advisory-board-questionnaire.html.

III. Category 3 Public Meeting Dates and Locations

    Consistent with the consultation requirements in NEIMA Section 108, 
the NRC received requests for and identified the areas surrounding 11 
nuclear power reactors as locations to host public meetings to discuss 
best practices and lessons learned for establishment and operation of 
CABs.
    Public meetings have been held near the following eight reactors:
    (1) Palisades Nuclear Generating Station in Covert, Michigan, on 
August 21, 2019;
    (2) Humboldt Bay Nuclear Power Plant in Eureka, California, on 
August 26, 2019;
    (3) Diablo Canyon Power Plant in San Luis Obispo, California, on

September 11, 2019;
    (7) Kewaunee Power Station in Kewaunee, Wisconsin, on September 24, 
2019; and
    (8) Zion Nuclear Power Station in Zion, Illinois, on September 26, 
2019.
    The three remaining public meetings will be held near the following 
reactors:
    (1) Indian Point Energy Center in Buchanan, New York, on October 2, 
2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19232A505);
    (2) Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station in Forked River, New 
Jersey, on October 3, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19232A504); and
    (3) Crystal River 3 Nuclear Power Plant in Crystal River, Florida, 
on October 10, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19232A502).

    Additionally, the NRC hosted a public webinar held on August 8, 
2019, to obtain comments from individuals in other areas of the 
country.
    Specific details regarding the dates, times, locations, and other 
logistical information for each of the meetings can be found on the 
NRC's NEIMA Section 108 public website at https://www.nrc.gov/waste/decommissioning/neima-section-108.html. For information about attending

IV. Local Community Advisory Board Questionnaire

    The NRC is seeking input from existing CABs in the vicinity of 
power reactors undergoing decommissioning, similar established 
stakeholder groups, or local government organizations regarding best 
practices and lessons learned associated with CABs at decommissioning 
nuclear power reactors. Comments may be submitted by November 15, 2019. 
Comments submitted after this date will be considered if it is 
practical to do so, but the Commission is able to ensure consideration 
only for comments received by this date.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 24th day of September, 2019.
