ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL
SAFEGUARDS:
Electronic records may be secured
and maintained on a cloud-based
software server and operating system
that resides in Federal Risk and
Authorization Management Program
(FedRAMP) and Federal Information
Security Modernization Act (FISMA)
hosting environment. Data located in
the cloud-based server is firewalled and
encrypted at rest and in transit. The
security mechanisms for handling data
at rest and in transit are in accordance
with DOE encryption standards.
Records are protected from
unauthorized access through the
following appropriate safeguards:
• Administrative: Access to all
records is limited to lawful government
purposes only, with access to electronic

records based on role and either twofactor authentication or password
protection. The system requires
passwords to be complex and to be
changed frequently. Users accessing
system records undergo frequent
training in Privacy Act and information
security requirements. Security and
privacy controls are reviewed on an
ongoing basis.
• Technical: Computerized records
systems are safeguarded on
Departmental networks configured for
role-based access based on job
responsibilities and organizational
affiliation. Privacy and security controls
are in place for this system and are
updated in accordance with applicable
requirements as determined by NIST
and DOE directives and guidance.
• Physical: Computer servers on
which electronic records are stored are
located in secured Department facilities,
which are protected by security guards,
identification badges, and cameras.
Paper copies of all records are locked in
file cabinets, file rooms, or offices and
are under the control of authorized
personnel. Access to these facilities is
granted only to authorized personnel
and each person granted access to the
system must be an individual
authorized to use and/or administer the
system.
RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
The Department follows the
procedures outlined in 10 CFR 1008.4.
Valid identification of the individual
making the request is required before
information will be processed, given,
access granted, or a correction
considered, to ensure that information is
processed, given, corrected, or records
disclosed or corrected only at the
request of the proper person.
CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES:
Any individual may submit a request
to the System Manager and request a
copy of any records relating to them. In
accordance with 10 CFR 1008.11, any
individual may appeal the denial of a
request made by him or her for
information about or for access to or
correction or amendment of records. An
appeal shall be filed within 90 calendar
days after receipt of the denial. When an
appeal is filed by mail, the postmark is
conclusive as to timeliness. The appeal
shall be in writing and must be signed
by the individual. The words
‘‘PRIVACY ACT APPEAL’’ should
appear in capital letters on the envelope
and the letter. Appeals of denials
relating to records maintained in
government-wide System of Records
reported by Office of Personnel
Management (OPM), shall be filed, as

opportunities and/or tax credits. To
help inform the interest in and design
of the MCC for clean energy
manufacturing programs, DOE is
seeking public input on the potential
structure, benefits, and risks of the
proposed MCC from potential capital
providers and clean energy
manufacturing program applicants or
selectees. The RFI specifically welcomes
comment in response to a series of
questions aimed at applicants or

Related to the Operating License for

Facility
National Nuclear Security
Administration, Department of Energy.
ACTION: Record of decision.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Energy’s National Nuclear Security
Administration (DOE/NNSA) intends to
issue a modification to its cooperative
agreement with SHINE Technologies,
DE–NA0004010, to revise the scope of
the agreement to include cost-shared
funding for facility construction.
Issuance of the modification is subject
to satisfactory completion of pricing and
other technical reviews. The
environmental impacts of this proposed
action have been addressed in the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC)
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
NUREG–2183 and NUREG–2183,
Supplement 1.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S.
medical community depends on a
reliable supply of the radioisotope
molybdenum-99 (Mo–99) for nuclear
medical diagnostic procedures. Mo–99’s
decay product, technetium–99m (Tc–
99m), is used in over 40,000 medical
procedures in the United States each
day to diagnose heart disease and
cancer, to study organ structure and
function, and to perform other
important medical applications. In
2012, Congress passed the American
Medical Isotopes Production Act, which
directed NNSA to establish a
technology-neutral program to support
the establishment of domestic supplies
of Mo–99 without the use of highly
enriched uranium (HEU). NNSA has
implemented this by competitively
awarding 50/50 percent cost-shared
cooperative agreements to commercial
entities and providing funds to DOE’s
National Laboratories to support
development of non-HEU Mo–99
production technologies. Currently, the
scope of NNSA’s cooperative agreement
with SHINE Technologies includes
activities such as equipment
procurement but does not include
facility construction.
In 2015, the NRC and NNSA issued
NUREG–2183, ‘‘Environmental Impact
Statement for the Construction Permit
for the SHINE Medical Radioisotope
Production Facility’’ (NRC 2015), which
discussed the environmental impacts of
constructing, operating, and
decommissioning the SHINE Medical
Isotope Production Facility (SHINE
facility) in Janesville, Wisconsin. In
2016, at the conclusion of its safety and
environmental reviews, the NRC issued
a construction permit for the SHINE
facility (NRC 2016). In July 2019, SHINE
Medical Technologies, LLC (SHINE)
submitted to the NRC an application for
an operating license for the SHINE
facility. When a final environmental
impact statement (FEIS) has been
prepared in connection with the
issuance of a construction permit for a
facility, the NRC is required to prepare
a supplement to the FEIS in connection
with any issuance of an operating
license for that facility in accordance
with 10 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) 51.95(b). This supplement
updates the prior environmental review
and only covers matters that differ from
those or that reflect significant new
information relative to that discussed in
the FEIS. Accordingly, in response to
SHINE’s operating license application,
NRC and NNSA staff issued NUREG–
2183, Supplement 1, which considered
