SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The NRC is considering the approval
of the initial DFP submitted by ISFSI
licensees. The NRC staff has prepared a
final EA and FONSI determination for
each of the initial ISFSI DFPs in
accordance with the NRC regulations in
part 51 of title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Environmental
Protection Regulations for Domestic
Licensing and Related Regulatory
Functions,’’ which implement the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.).
The NRC requires its licensees to plan
for the eventual decommissioning of
their licensed facilities prior to license
termination. On June 17, 2011, the NRC
published a final rule in the Federal
Register amending its decommissioning
planning regulations (76 FR 35512). The
final rule amended the NRC regulation,
10 CFR 72.30, which concerns financial
assurance and decommissioning for
ISFSIs. This regulation requires each
holder of, or applicant for, a license
under 10 CFR part 72 to submit a DFP
for the NRC’s review and approval. The
DFP is to demonstrate the licensee’s
financial assurance, i.e., that funds will
be available to decommission the ISFSI.
The NRC staff will later publish its
financial analyses of the DFP submittals
which will be available for public
inspection in ADAMS.
II. Discussion
The following table includes the plant
name, docket number, licensee, and
ADAMS Accession Number for the final
EA and FONSI determination for each of
the individual ISFSIs. The table also
includes the ADAMS Accession
Numbers for other relevant documents,
including the initial and updated DFP
submittals. For further details with

Duke Energy Florida, LLC (DEF).
The NRC’s review and approval of DEF’s initial DFP submitted in accordance with 10 CFR 72.30(b).
The NRC staff has determined that the proposed action, the review and approval of DEF’s initial DFP, submitted
in accordance with 10 CFR 72.30(b), will not authorize changes to licensed operations or maintenance activities, or result in changes in the types, characteristics, or quantities of radiological or non-radiological effluents
released into the environment from the ISFSI, or result in the creation of solid waste. Moreover, the approval of
the initial DFP will not authorize any construction activity, facility modification, or other land-disturbing activity.
The NRC staff has concluded that the proposed action is a procedural and administrative action that will not
have a significant impact on the environment.
The proposed action does not require changes to the ISFSI’s licensed routine operations, maintenance activities,
or monitoring programs, nor does it require new construction or land-disturbing activities. The scope of the proposed action concerns only the NRC’s review and approval of DEF’s initial DFP. The scope of the proposed
action does not include, and will not result in, the review and approval of decontamination or decommissioning
activities or license termination for the ISFSI or for other parts of Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant.
Therefore, the NRC staff determined that approval of the initial DFP for the Crystal River ISFSI will not significantly affect the quality of the human environment, and accordingly, the staff has concluded that a FONSI is
appropriate. The NRC staff further finds that preparation of an environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required.

action does not include, and will not result in, the review and approval of decontamination or decommissioning
activities or license termination for the ISFSI or for other parts of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2.
Therefore, the NRC staff determined that approval of the initial DFP for the Watts Bar ISFSI will not significantly affect the quality of the human environment, and accordingly, the staff has concluded that a FONSI is
appropriate. The NRC staff further finds that preparation of an environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The NRC is considering the approval of the initial DFP submitted by
ISFSI licensees. The NRC staff has prepared a final EA and FONSI
determination for each of the initial ISFSI DFPs in accordance with the
NRC regulations in part 51 of title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), ``Environmental Protection Regulations for
Domestic Licensing and Related Regulatory Functions,'' which implement
the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended (42 U.S.C.
4321 et seq.).
The NRC requires its licensees to plan for the eventual
decommissioning of their licensed facilities prior to license
termination. On June 17, 2011, the NRC published a final rule in the
Federal Register amending its decommissioning planning regulations (76
FR 35512). The final rule amended the NRC regulation, 10 CFR 72.30,
which concerns financial assurance and decommissioning for ISFSIs. This
regulation requires each holder of, or applicant for, a license under
10 CFR part 72 to submit a DFP for the NRC's review and approval. The
DFP is to demonstrate the licensee's financial assurance, i.e., that
funds will be available to decommission the ISFSI. The NRC staff will
later publish its financial analyses of the DFP submittals which will
be available for public inspection in ADAMS.
II. Discussion
The following table includes the plant name, docket number,
licensee, and ADAMS Accession Number for the final EA and FONSI
determination for each of the individual ISFSIs. The table also
includes the ADAMS Accession Numbers for other relevant documents,
including the initial and updated DFP submittals. For further details

Proposed Action. proposed action, the review and approval
of TVA's initial DFP, submitted in
accordance with 10 CFR 72.30(b), will
not authorize changes to licensed
operations or maintenance activities, or
result in changes in the types,
characteristics, or quantities of
radiological or non-radiological
effluents released into the environment
from the ISFSI, or result in the
creation of solid waste. Moreover, the
approval of the initial DFP will not
authorize any construction activity,
facility modification, or other land-
disturbing activity. The NRC staff has
concluded that the proposed action is a
procedural and administrative action

operations, maintenance activities, or
monitoring programs, nor does it require
new construction or land-disturbing
activities. The scope of the proposed
action concerns only the NRC's review
and approval of TVA's initial DFP. The
scope of the proposed action does not
include, and will not result in, the
review and approval of decontamination
or decommissioning activities or license
termination for the ISFSI or for other
parts of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, Units
1 and 2. Therefore, the NRC staff
determined that approval of the initial
DFP for the Watts Bar ISFSI will not
significantly affect the quality of the
human environment, and accordingly, the
staff has concluded that a FONSI is
appropriate. The NRC staff further finds
that preparation of an environmental
impact statement (EIS) is not required.
