30-day Federal Register Notice

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 107 / Tuesday, June 6, 2017 / Notices

mstockstill on DSK30JT082PROD with NOTICES

Accession No. ML17010A300). Entergy
is requesting an exemption from the
requirements of title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (10 CFR) sections
72.212(a)(2), 72.212(b)(3),
72.212(b)(5)(i), 72.214, and the portion
of section 72.212(b)(11) that requires
compliance with the terms, conditions,
and specifications of the CoC No. 1014,
for spent fuel storage at the VYNPS
independent spent fuel storage
installation (ISFSI).
Specifically, Entergy requested an
exemption from Appendix B, Table 2.1–
3, Note 19 of Amendment No. 10 to CoC
No. 1014, therefore allowing certain
lower enriched channeled fuel
assemblies classified as ‘‘undamaged’’
per the CoC to be loaded with higher
enriched fuel assemblies in the same
MPC.
II. Environmental Assessment
Summary
Under the requirements of 10 CFR
51.21 and 51.30(a), the NRC staff
developed a draft EA (ADAMS
Accession No. ML16343A859) to
evaluate the proposed Federal action,
which is for the NRC to grant an
exemption to Entergy to allow storing
certain lower enriched fuel assemblies
with higher enriched fuel assemblies in
a HI–STORM 100 MPC at the VYNPS
site.
The EA defines the NRC’s proposed
action (i.e., to grant Entergy’s exemption
request per 10 CFR 72.7) and the
purpose of and need for the proposed
action. Evaluations of the potential
environmental impacts of the proposed
action and alternatives to the proposed
action are presented, followed by the
NRC’s conclusion.
This EA evaluates the potential
environmental impacts of granting the
exemption to allow loading of higher
enriched fuel assemblies with certain
lower enriched fuel assemblies in a HI–
STORM 100 MPC at the VYNPS ISFSI.
The potential environmental impact of
using NRC-approved storage casks was
initially analyzed in the EA for the
rulemaking to provide for the storage of
spent fuel under a general license on
July 18, 1990 (55 FR 29181). The EA for
using the HI–STORM 100, Amendment
No. 10, cask system (81 FR 13265) tiers
off of the EA for the 1990 final rule.
There is no change to the types or
quantities of effluents that may be
released offsite, and there is no increase
in occupational or public radiation
exposure. Therefore, there are no
significant radiological environmental
impacts associated with the proposed
action. There is no change to the nonradiological effluents. The proposed
action will take place within the site

boundary, and does not have other
environmental impacts. Therefore, the
proposed action will not have a
significant effect on the quality of the
human environment. Therefore, the
environmental impacts of the proposed
action are no greater than those
described in the EA for the rulemaking
to add the HI–STORM 100, Amendment
No. 10, cask system to 10 CFR 72.214.
III. Finding of No Significant Impact
The NRC staff has prepared an EA and
associated FONSI in support of the
proposed action. The NRC staff has
concluded that the proposed action, for
the NRC to grant an exemption,
allowing the loading of certain lower
enriched fuel assemblies with higher
enriched fuel assemblies in the same
HI–STORM 100 MPC, will not
significantly impact the quality of the
human environment, and that the
proposed action is the preferred
alternative. The environmental impacts
are bounded by the previous NRC EA
for the rulemaking to add the HI–
STORM 100, Amendment No. 10, cask
system to 10 CFR 72.214.
The NRC provided the Vermont
Department of Health (VDOH) with a
draft copy of the EA for a 30-day review
on February 7, 2017 (ADAMS Accession
No. ML17038A468). On March 16, 2017,
the VDOH provided its comments
(ADAMS Accession No. ML17080A475).
The NRC staff responded to VDOH’s
comments on May 23, 2017 (ADAMS
Accession No. ML17144A045). The NRC
did not make changes to this EA as a
result of VDOH’s comments; however,
the NRC will consider the VDOH’s
comments during the preparation of the
safety evaluation report.
The NRC staff informed the Vermont
State Historic Preservation Office
(SHPO) of the NRC’s ‘‘no effects’’
determination by letter dated February
9, 2017 (ADAMS Accession No.
ML17040A337). The Vermont SHPO
concurred on the NRC’s determination
by email on February 24, 2017 (ADAMS
Accession Package No. ML17055A594,
including ADAMS Accession Nos.
ML17055A626 and ML17055A636). The
staff reviewed the updated listings of
endangered species and critical habitats,
and no changes were identified since
the staff’s review in 2007 (ADAMS
Accession Nos. ML072050012 and
ML072050013).
The NRC staff has determined that
this exemption would have no impact
on historic and cultural resources or
ecological resources, and therefore no
consultations are necessary under
Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act and Section 7 of the
Endangered Species Act.

Therefore, the NRC finds that there
are no significant environmental
impacts from the proposed action, and
that preparation of an environmental
impact statement is not warranted.
Accordingly, the NRC has determined
that a FONSI is appropriate.
