Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 224 / Monday, November 22, 2004 / Notices 67965

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission 

(NRC) is terminating Materials License 

No. 55–23732–02 issued to Belair 

Quartz, Inc. and authorizing release of 

its facility in Christiansted, St. Croix, 

U.S. Virgin Islands for unrestricted use. 

NRC has prepared an Environmental 

Assessment (EA) in support of this 

action in accordance with the 

requirements of 10 CFR part 51. Based 

on the EA, the NRC has concluded that 

a Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI) is appropriate. The license will 

be terminated following the publication 

of this notice. 

II. EA Summary 

The purpose of the action is to 

terminate the license and authorize the 

release of the licensee’s Christiansted, 

St. Croix facility for unrestricted use. 

Belair Quartz, Inc. (Belair Quartz) was 

authorized by the NRC from April 27, 

1995, to use watch dials and hands 

containing luminous paint activated 

with tritium for the manufacture and 

repair of timepieces. On October 31, 

2001, Belair Quartz requested that the 

NRC release the facility for unrestricted 

use. Belair Quartz has conducted 

surveys of the facility and provided 

information to the NRC to demonstrate 

that the site meets the license 

termination criteria in Subpart E of 10 

CFR part 20 for unrestricted release. 

The NRC staff has prepared an EA in 

support of the license amendment. The 

facility was remediated and surveyed 

prior to the licensee requesting the 

license termination. The NRC staff has 

reviewed the information and final 

status survey submitted by Belair Quartz 

and performed a confirmatory survey. 

Based on its review, the staff has 

determined that there are no additional 

remediation activities necessary to 

complete the proposed action. 

Therefore, the staff considered the 

impact of the residual radioactivity at 

the facility and concluded that since the 

residual radioactivity meets the 

requirements in Subpart E of 10 CFR 

part 20, a Finding of No Significant 

Impact is appropriate. 

III. Finding of No Significant Impact 

The staff has prepared the EA 

(summarized above) in support of the 

license amendment to terminate the 

license and release the facility for 

unrestricted use. The NRC staff has 

evaluated Belair Quartz, Inc.’’s request 

and the results of the surveys and has 

concluded that the completed action 

complies with the criteria in Subpart E 

of 10 CFR part 20. The staff has found 

that the environmental impacts from the 

action are bounded by the impacts 

evaluated by NUREG-1496, Volumes 1–

3, ‘‘Generic Environmental Impact 

Statement in Support of Rulemaking on 

Radiological Criteria for License 

Termination of NRC-Licensed Facilities’

(ML042310492, ML042320379, and 

ML042330385). On the basis of the EA, 

the NRC has concluded that the 

environmental impacts from the action 

are expected to be insignificant and has 

determined not to prepare an 

environmental impact statement for the 

action. 

IV. Further Information 

Documents related to this action, 

including the application for the license 

termination and supporting 

documentation, are available

this Notice are: The Environmental 

Assessment (ML042720034), and the

2004, the NRC terminated public access

security review of publicly available 

documents to ensure that potentially 

sensitive information is removed from 

the ADAMS database accessible through 

the NRC’s web site. Interested members
