Material License Application; Notice of 

Intent to Prepare a Supplemental 

Environmental Impact Statement 

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of Intent (NOI).

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 156 / Friday, August 14, 2009 / Notices 41175 

SUMMARY: Uranium One Americas 

(Uranium One) submitted an 

application for a new source material 

license for the Antelope and JAB 

Uranium Project to be located in 

Sweetwater County, Wyoming, 

approximately 38 miles northwest of 

Rawlins, Wyoming and approximately 

90 miles southwest of Casper, Wyoming. 

The application proposes the 

construction, operation, and 

decommissioning of in-situ recovery 

(ISR), also known as in-situ leach, 

facilities and restoration of the aquifer 

from which the uranium is being 

extracted. Uranium One submitted the 

application for the new source material 

license to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) by a letter dated July 

3, 2008. A notice of receipt and 

availability of the license application, 

including the Environmental Report 

(ER), and opportunity to request a 

hearing was published in the Federal 

Register on May 19, 2009 (74 FR 23436). 

The purpose of this NOI is to inform the 

public that the NRC will be preparing a 

site-specific Supplemental 

Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) 

to the Generic Environmental Impact 

Statement for In-Situ Leach Uranium 

Milling Facilities (ISR GEIS) for a new 

source material license for the Antelope 

and JAB Uranium Project, as required by 

10 CFR 51.26(d). In addition, as 

outlined in 36 CFR 800.8, ‘‘Coordination 

with the National Environmental Policy 

Act (NEPA),’’ the NRC plans to use the 

environmental review process as 

reflected in 10 CFR part 51 to coordinate 

compliance with section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

general information on the NRC NEPA 

process or the environmental review 

process related to the Antelope and JAB 

Uranium Project application, please 

contact the NRC Environmental Project 

Manager, Johari Moore, at (301) 415– 

7694 or johari.moore@nrc.gov. 

Information and documents 

associated with the Antelope and Jab 

Uranium Project, including the license 

application, are available for public 

review through our electronic reading 

room: http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/ 

adams.html and on the NRC’s Antelope 

and JAB Uranium Project Web page:

Documents may also be obtained from 

NRC’s Public Document Room at the 

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 

Headquarters, 11555 Rockville Pike 

(first floor), Rockville, Maryland. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

1.0 Background 

Uranium One submitted the 

application for a new source material 

license to the NRC for ISR facilities by 

a letter dated July 3, 2008. A notice of 

receipt and availability of the license 

application, including the ER, and 

opportunity to request a hearing was 

published in the Federal Register on 

May 19, 2009 (74 FR 23436). No 

requests for hearing were received. 

The NRC is preparing a SEIS that will 

tier off of the ISR GEIS (NUREG–1910). 

The NRC staff is planning to place ads 

in newspapers serving communities 

near the proposed site requesting 

information and comments from the 

public regarding the proposed action. 

Also, NRC staff plans to meet with and 

gather information from local agencies 

and public interest groups in 

conjunction with a visit to the proposed 

site. However, no public scoping 

meetings will be held as part of this 

review. NRC staff may also use relevant 

information gathered for the GEIS to 

define the scope of the SEIS. The NRC 

staff is consulting with Bureau of Land 

Management, U.S. Fish & Wildlife 

Service, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 

Wyoming Department of Environmental 

Quality, Wyoming State Historic 

Preservation Office, Shoshone and 

Arapaho Tribal Historic Preservation 

Offices, Wyoming Game and Fish 

Department, and Natural Resource 

Conservation District in preparing the 

SEIS. 

The NRC has begun evaluating the 

potential environmental impacts 

associated with the proposed ISR 

facility in parallel with the review of the 

license application. This environmental 

evaluation will be documented in draft 

and final SEISs in accordance with 

NEPA and NRC’s implementing 

regulations contained in 10 CFR part 51. 

The NRC is required by 10 CFR 

51.20(b)(8) to prepare an Environmental 

Impact Statement (EIS) or supplement to 

an EIS for the issuance of a license to 

possess and use source material for 

uranium milling. The ISR GEIS and the 

site-specific SEIS fulfill this regulatory 

requirement. The purpose of the present 

notice is to inform the public that the 

NRC staff will prepare a site-specific 

supplement to the ISR GEIS as part of 

the review of the application. 

2.0 Antelope and JAB ISR Facilities 

The facilities, if licensed, would 

include a central processing plant, 

satellite facility, accompanying 

wellfields, and ion exchange columns. 

The process involves the dissolution of 

the water-soluble uranium from the 

mineralized host sandstone rock by 

pumping oxidants (oxygen or hydrogen 

peroxide) and chemical compounds 

(sodium bicarbonate) through a series of 

injection wells. The uranium-rich 

solution is transferred from production 

wells to either the central processing 

plant or satellite facility for uranium 

concentration using ion exchange 

columns. Final processing is conducted 

in the central processing plant to 

produce yellowcake, which would be 

sold to off-site facilities for further 

processing and eventual use as 

commercial fuel for use in nuclear 

power reactors. 

3.0 Alternatives To Be Evaluated 

No-Action—The no-action alternative 

would be to deny the license 

application. Under this alternative, the 

NRC would not issue the license. This 

serves as a baseline for comparison. 

Proposed action—The proposed 

Federal action is to issue a license to use 

or process source material at the 

proposed ISR facilities. The license 

review process analyzes the 

construction, operation, and 

decommissioning of ISR facilities and 

restoration of the aquifer from which the 

uranium is being extracted. The ISR 

facilities would be located in 

Sweetwater County, Wyoming, 

approximately 38 miles northwest of 

Rawlins, Wyoming and approximately 

90 miles southwest of Casper, Wyoming. 

The applicant would be issued an NRC 

license under the provisions of 10 CFR 

parts 40. 

Other alternatives not listed here may 

be identified through the environmental 

review process. 

4.0 Environmental Impact Areas To 

Be Analyzed 

The following areas have been 

tentatively identified for analysis in the 

SEIS: 

• Land Use: Plans, policies, and 

controls; 

• Transportation: Transportation 

modes, routes, quantities, and risk 

estimates; 

• Geology and Soils: Physical 

geography, topography, geology, and 

soil characteristics; 

• Water Resources: Surface and

inclusive, nor is it a predetermination of 

potential environmental impacts. 

5.0 The NEPA Process 

The SEIS for the Antelope and JAB 

Uranium Project will be prepared 

pursuant to the NRC’s NEPA 

Regulations at 10 CFR part 51. The NRC 

will continue its environmental review 

of the application and as soon as 

practicable, the NRC and its contractor 

will prepare and publish a draft SEIS. 

The NRC currently plans to have a 45- 

day public comment period for the draft 

SEIS. Availability of the draft SEIS and 

the dates of the public comment period 

will be announced in the Federal 

Register and the NRC Web site: http:// 

www.nrc.gov. The final SEIS will

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[File No. 500–1] 

U.S. Canadian Minerals, Inc.; Order of 

Suspension of Trading 

August 12, 2009. 

It appears to the Securities and 

Exchange Commission that there is a 

lack of current and accurate information 

concerning the securities of U.S. 

Canadian Minerals, Inc. (OTC Bulletin 

Board symbol: USCN), a Nevada 

corporation. Questions have been raised 

about the accuracy and adequacy of 

publicly disseminated information 

concerning, among other things, U.S. 

Canadian Minerals’ liabilities, stock 

issuances, recent merger transaction, 

business prospects, and recently 

acquired purported assets. 

The Commission is of the opinion that 

the public interest and the protection of 

investors require a suspension of trading 

in the securities of U.S. Canadian 

Minerals, Inc. 

Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to 

Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange 

Act of 1934, that trading in the 

securities of the above-listed company is 

suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. 

EDT, August 12, 2009, through 11:59 

p.m. EDT, on August 25, 2009. 

By the Commission.
