Download as PDF 48920 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 144 / Friday, July 28, 2023 / Notices begin a technical review (ADAMS Accession No. ML22098A092). If the NRC approves the decommissioning plan, the NRC will amend NRC License No. R–98. However, prior to doing so, the NRC will need to make the findings required by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the NRC’s regulations. The NRC’s findings will be documented in a safety evaluation report. The proposed action appears to qualify for a categorical exclusion under 10 CFR 51.22; therefore a separate environmental assessment will not be prepared in relation to this action. III. Notice and Solicitation of Comments In accordance with section 10 CFR 20.1405, the Commission is providing notice and soliciting comments from local and State governments in the vicinity of the site and any Federally recognized Indian tribe that could be affected by the decommissioning activities for the Aerotest Radiography and Research Reactor. This notice and solicitation of comments is published pursuant to 10 CFR 20.1405, which provides for publication in the Federal Register and in a forum, such as local newspapers, letters to State or local organizations, or other appropriate forum, that is readily accessible to individuals in the vicinity of the site. Comments should be provided within 30 days of the date of this notice. Further, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(b)(5), notice is also provided to interested persons of the Commission’s intent to approve the decommissioning plan by amendment, subject to such conditions and limitations as it deems appropriate and necessary, if the plan demonstrates that decommissioning of the Aerotest Radiography and Research Reactor will be performed in accordance with the applicable NRC regulations, and will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Dated: July 24, 2023.
