NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[NRC–2010–0066; Docket Nos. 50–325 and 

50–324] 

Carolina Power & Light Company, 

Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 

1 and 2; Environmental Assessment 

and Finding of No Significant Impact 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is considering 

issuance of exemptions, pursuant to 

Title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR) Section 73.5, 

‘‘Specific exemptions,’’ from the 

implementation date for certain new 

requirements of 10 CFR part 73, 

‘‘Physical protection of plants and 

materials,’’ for Facility Operating 

License Nos. DPR 71 and DPR–62, 

issued to Carolina Power & Light 

Company (CP&L, the licensee), for 

operation of the Brunswick Steam 

Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2 (BSEP), 

located in Brunswick County, North 

Carolina. In accordance with 10 CFR 

51.21, ‘‘Criteria for and identification of 

licensing and regulatory actions 

requiring environmental assessments,’’ 

the NRC prepared an environmental 

assessment documenting its finding. 

The NRC concluded that the proposed 

actions will have no significant 

environmental impact. 

Environmental Assessment 

Identification of the Proposed Actions 

The proposed actions would exempt 

the BSEP, Units 1 and 2 from the 

required implementation date of March 

31, 2010, for two new requirements of 

10 CFR part 73. Specifically, BSEP 

would be granted exemptions from 

being in full compliance with certain 

new requirements contained in 10 CFR 

73.55, ‘‘Requirements for physical 

protection of licensed activities in 

nuclear power reactors against 

radiological sabotage,’’ by the March 31, 

2010, deadline. CP&L has proposed an 

alternate full compliance 

implementation date of December 20, 

2010, approximately 9 months beyond 

the date required by 10 CFR part 73. The 

proposed actions, extensions of the 

schedule for completion of certain 

actions required by the revised 10 CFR 

part 73, do not involve any physical 

changes to the Units 1 and 2 reactors, 

fuel, plant structures, support 

structures, water, or land at the BSEP 

site. 

The proposed actions are in 

accordance with the licensee’s 

application dated November 30, 2009 

(Agencywide Documents Access and 

Management System (ADAMS) 

Accession No. ML093370132). 

The Need for the Proposed Actions 

The proposed actions are needed to 

provide the licensee with additional 

time to perform the required changes to 

the BSEP, Units 1 and 2 security 

systems, which involve significant 

physical modifications, e.g., design and 

construction of a new security building 

to support the new physical protection 

program requirements, relocation of 

certain security equipment to the new 

building, the addition of uninterrupted 

power supply, and infrastructure 

upgrades. In addition, these 

modifications must be coordinated with 

the Unit 1 refueling outage in spring 

2010. 

Environmental Impacts of the Proposed 

Actions 

The NRC has completed its 

environmental assessment of the 

proposed exemptions. The staff has 

concluded that the proposed actions to 

extend the implementation deadline 

would not significantly affect plant 

safety and would not have a significant 

adverse effect on the probability of an 

accident occurring. 

The proposed actions would not 

result in an increased radiological 

hazard beyond those previously 

analyzed in the environmental 

assessment and finding of no significant 

impact made by the Commission in 

promulgating its revisions to 10 CFR 

part 73 as discussed in a Federal 

Register notice dated March 27, 2009 

(74 FR 13967). There will be no change 

to radioactive effluents that affect 

radiation exposures to plant workers 

and members of the public. Therefore, 

no changes or different types of 

radiological impacts are expected as a 

result of the proposed exemptions. 

The proposed actions do not result in 

changes to land use or water use, or 

result in changes to the quality or 

quantity of non-radiological effluents. 

No changes to the National Pollution 

Discharge Elimination System permit 

are needed. No effects on the aquatic or 

terrestrial habitat in the vicinity of the 

plant, or to threatened, endangered, or 

protected species under the Endangered 

Species Act, or impacts to essential fish 

habitat covered by the MagnusonSteven’s Act are expected.

8754 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 37 / Thursday, February 25, 2010 / Notices 

There are no impacts to the air or 

ambient air quality. There are no 

impacts to historical and cultural 

resources. There would be no impact to 

socioeconomic resources. Therefore, no 

changes to or different types of nonradiological environmental impacts are 

expected as a result of the proposed 

exemptions. 

Accordingly, the NRC concludes that 

there are no significant environmental 

impacts associated with the proposed 

actions. In addition, in promulgating its 

revisions to 10 CFR part 73, the 

Commission prepared an environmental 

assessment and published a finding of 

no significant impact (Part 73, Power 

Reactor Security Requirements, 74 FR 

13926, 13967 (March 27, 2009)). 

The licensee currently maintains a 

security system acceptable to the NRC 

and will continue to provide acceptable 

physical protection of BSEP. Therefore, 

the extension of the implementation 

date for certain new requirements of 10 

CFR part 73 to December 20, 2010, 

would not have any significant 

environmental impacts. 

The NRC staff’s safety evaluation will 

be provided in the exemptions that will 

be issued as part of the letter to the 

licensee approving the exemptions to 

the regulation, if granted. 

Environmental Impacts of the 

Alternatives to the Proposed Actions 

As an alternative to the proposed 

actions, the NRC staff considered denial 

of the proposed actions (i.e., the ‘‘no 

action’’ alternative). Denial of the 

exemption requests would result in no 

change in current environmental 

impacts. If the proposed actions were 

denied, the licensee would have to 

comply with the March 31, 2010, 

implementation deadline. The 

environmental impacts of the proposed 

exemptions and the ‘‘no action’’ 

alternative are similar. 

Alternative Use of Resources 

The actions do not involve the use of 

any different resources than those 

considered in the Final Environmental 

Statement for the BSEP dated January 

1976, and the Generic Environmental 

Impact Statement for License Renewal 

of Nuclear Plants, NUREG–1437, 

Supplement 25, dated March 2006 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML060900480). 

Agencies and Persons Consulted 

In accordance with its stated policy, 

on January 19, 2010, the NRC staff 

consulted with the North Carolina State 

official, Mr. Dale Dusenbury of the 

North Carolina Department of 

Environment and Natural Resources 

regarding the environmental impact of 

the proposed actions. The State official 

had no comments. 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

On the basis of the environmental 

assessment, the NRC concludes that the 

proposed actions will not have a 

significant effect on the quality of the 

human environment. Accordingly, the 

NRC has determined not to prepare an 

environmental impact statement for the 

proposed actions. 

For further details with respect to the 

proposed actions, see the licensee’s 

letter dated November 30, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is proposing to 

amend a materials permit held under 

Master Byproduct Materials License No. 

03–23853–01VA. The permit is held by 

the Department of Veterans Affairs (the 

Licensee), for its Veteran Affairs (VA) 

North Florida/South Georgia Veterans 

Health System located in Gainesville, 

Florida. Issuance of the amendment 

would authorize release of Building 26 

(the Facility) for unrestricted use. The 

Licensee will continue its operation of 

other facilities under this permit and its 

master materials license. The Licensee 

requested this action in a letter dated 

October 29, 2009 (ML093060270). The 

NRC has prepared an Environmental 

Assessment (EA) in support of this 

proposed action in accordance with the 

requirements of Title 10, Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 51 (10 

CFR Part 51). Based on the EA, the NRC 

has concluded that a Finding of No 

Significant Impact (FONSI) is 

appropriate with respect to the 

proposed action. The amendment will 

be issued to the Licensee following the 

publication of this FONSI and EA in the 

Federal Register. 

II. Environmental Assessment 

Identification of Proposed Action 

The proposed action would approve 

the Licensee’s October 29, 2009, 

materials permit amendment request, 

resulting in release of the Facility for 

unrestricted use. License No. 03–23853– 

01VA was issued on March 17, 2003, 

pursuant to 10 CFR Parts 30 and 35, and 

has been amended periodically since 

that time. This master license authorizes 

the Licensee to use byproduct materials 

at several Licensee facilities around the 

country, as authorized on a site-specific 

basis by permits issued by the 

Licensee’s National Radiation Safety 

Committee. Under the license, the 

permits authorize the use of by-product 

materials for various medical and 

veterinary purposes, and for portable 

gauges. 

Under the master material license 

permit, building 26 was used as a 

radioactive waste storage facility located
