Education

Type of Review: Revision.

Title: Applications for Assistance

(sections 8002 and 8003) and State

Certification Requests (section 8009)—

Impact Aid.

Abstract: A local educational agency

must submit an application to the

Department to receive Impact Aid

payments under sections 8002 or 8003

of the Elementary and Secondary

Education Act (ESEA), and a State

requesting certification under section

8009 of the ESEA must submit data for

the Secretary to determine whether the

State has a qualified equalization plan

and may take Impact Aid payments into

consideration in allocating State aid.

Additional Information: This

application has been revised as a result

of an amendment to Title VIII of the

Elementary and Secondary Education

Act. Section 3(a) of the Impact Aid

Technical Amendments of 1996 (P.L.

104–195) added section 8003(a)(4) to the

Impact Aid law. This amendment

authorizes the Impact Aid program to

consider United States military

dependents living off base (‘‘military b’’

children) as if they were living on base

(‘‘military a’’ children) when base

housing is undergoing renovation. This

provision will result in increased

payments for applicants with qualifying

children. Therefore, the Department is

seeking approval for the new Table 9 to

be added to the previously approved

Impact Aid application for FY 1999.

An emergency clearance has been

requested by October 1, 1997 for the

following reasons: (1) If not approved in

time, it would cause public harm

because it will result in payments being

delayed to all section 8003 applicants;

and (2) section 8005 of the Impact Aid

law requires the Secretary to establish a

deadline for the submission of Impact

Aid applicants. Late applications would

result in reduced payment or no

payment at all. The Secretary

established a deadline of January 31

through regulations (34 CFR Section

222.3(a)). It is necessary to receive an

emergency clearance of Table 9 so that

applicants have sufficient time to

comply with the application deadline.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Notice of Intent To Prepare a HighLevel Waste and Facilities Disposition

Environmental Impact Statement,

Idaho Falls, ID

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare an

environmental impact statement.

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy

(DOE) intends to prepare an

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

to evaluate alternatives for managing the

high-level waste and associated

radioactive wastes and facilities at the

Idaho National Engineering and

Environmental Laboratory (INEEL).

Under the terms of a 1995 Settlement

Agreement with the State of Idaho,

which has been incorporated into a

court order, DOE agreed to treat highlevel radioactive wastes currently stored

at the Idaho Chemical Processing Plant

(ICPP) at INEEL and remove these

wastes from Idaho. The proposed EIS,

titled the High-Level Waste and

Facilities Disposition Environmental

Impact Statement, will assist the

Department in making the decisions

necessary for management of these

radioactive wastes in a manner that will

comply with applicable laws and

regulations, and protect the

environment and the health and safety

of the workers and the public in a costeffective manner.

This EIS will be tiered from two

Environmental Impact Statements: (1)

the Department of Energy Programmatic

Spent Nuclear Fuel Management and

Idaho National Engineering Laboratory

Environmental Restoration and Waste

Management Programs EIS (SNF & INEL

EIS, issued in April 1995), and (2) the

DOE Waste Management Programmatic

Environmental Impact Statement (WM

PEIS, issued in May 1997). As a result,

this EIS will make use of previously

developed information and analyses.

The DOE’s proposed action is to treat

high-activity calcine and sodiumbearing liquid radioactive wastes in a

new facility using a radionuclide

partitioning technology to separate highlevel waste from low-level waste. The

proposed action would also include

closure of 11 underground storage tanks,

the New Waste Calcining Facility, and

associated laboratories and support

buildings at the ICPP.

This EIS will consider reasonable

alternatives for treatment of the highactivity calcine and the sodium-bearing

wastes, and for dispositioning of

facilities associated with those wastes.

Alternatives ranging from grouting

wastes in existing high-level waste

facilities at the ICPP Tank Farm to the

complete removal and disposal of these

wastes will be considered. Alternatives

involving the separation of only the

transuranic constituents from the

wastes, separation of and removal of

hazardous wastes, and full actinide and

metal recovery will also be considered.

DOE will conduct public scoping

workshops on this proposed EIS on

October 16, in Idaho Falls, ID and on

October 23, 1997, in Boise, ID.

DATES: DOE announces two public

workshops and welcomes public

discussion on the scope of the EIS,

including the alternatives the

Department is considering. This public

scoping period begins with the

publication of this notice in the Federal

Register and will continue until

November 24, 1997. DOE invites other

Federal agencies, Native American

tribes, State and local governments and

the general public to comment on the

scope of this EIS.

Two public workshops will be held

during this scoping period:
49210 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 182 / Friday, September 19, 1997 / Notices

1. October 16, 1997, 7:00–9:30 p.m. at

Shilo Inn, 780 Lindsay Blvd., Idaho

Falls, ID.

2. October 23, 1997, 6:00–8:30 p.m.

Boise Centre on the Grove, Boise, ID.

These workshops will provide the

public with information about the

proposed project, and an opportunity to

suggest reasonable alternatives that the

Department should consider. Written

comments may be submitted to the DOE

at these workshops, sent by facsimile to

(208) 526–5678, or mailed to the EIS

Document Manager, Mr. T. L.

Wichmann, at the address listed below.

To ensure consideration, DOE must

receive scoping comments by November

24, 1997, although DOE will consider

comments received after November 24,

1997, to the extent practicable.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Purpose and Need for Agency Action

The Department of Energy must

decide how to treat, store, and dispose

of high-level radioactive waste that has

been generated by spent fuel and

irradiated target reprocessing operations

at the INEEL. Most of the high-level

waste at the ICPP resulted from

reprocessing spent nuclear fuel to

recover enriched uranium from naval

reactor fuel, and from reprocessing

miscellaneous government and ‘‘special

case’’ commercial nuclear fuel

materials. This waste typically contains

highly radioactive, short-lived fission

products as well as long-lived

radioactive isotopes. High-level waste at

the ICPP is ‘‘mixed waste’’ because in

addition to radioactive substances, it

contains hazardous chemicals and toxic

heavy metals that are regulated under

the Resource Conservation and

Recovery Act (RCRA) or constituents

that exhibit hazardous characteristics

(e.g., corrosivity) as defined under

RCRA. To protect the environment and

public health, the highly radioactive

and long-lived radioactive portions of

this waste must be stabilized and

isolated from the human environment

(as in a geologic repository), after the

chemically hazardous constituents have

been appropriately treated.

The INEEL reprocessed spent nuclear

fuel at the ICPP from 1952 to 1990,

resulting in liquid radioactive waste that

is stored at the ICPP Tank Farm. The

Tank Farm consists of eleven 300,000-

gallon underground stainless steel tanks

surrounded by concrete vaults. Since

1963, this liquid radioactive waste has

been undergoing conversion into a dry,

stable, granular powder called calcine,

using the waste calcining facility at the

ICPP. Calcined waste would require

additional treatment to be suitable for

disposal in a geologic repository. The

calcine material is presently stored in

above- and below-ground bins at the

ICPP, referred to as the ‘‘calcine bin

sets.’’

Radioactive liquid waste resulting

from the cleanup of extraction plant

solvent and decontamination processes

at the ICPP also is stored in the Tank

Farm. This waste contains large

quantities of sodium and potassium

nitrates with transuranic radioactive

isotopes (i.e., isotopes having atomic

numbers greater than uranium) that

have long decay times. This waste,

although not produced from spent

nuclear fuel reprocessing, historically

has been managed as high-level waste

because some of its physical and

chemical properties are similar to those

of high-level waste. Additional waste

testing and characterization may result

in its reclassification as mixed

transuranic waste or mixed low-level

waste.

In October 1995, the State of Idaho,

the Department of the Navy, and the

Department of Energy settled the cases

of Public Service Co. of Colorado v. Batt,

No. CV 91–0035–S–EJL (D. Id.) and

United States v. Batt, No. CV–91–0065–

S–EJL (D.Id.). Certain conditions of the

Idaho Settlement Agreement/Court

Order obligate the Department to:

• Complete the process of calcining

all remaining non-sodium bearing liquid

high-level waste by June 30, 1998;

• Commence negotiating with the

State of Idaho by December 1999 a plan

and schedule for the treatment of

calcined waste;

• Complete the calcination of

sodium-bearing liquid high-level wastes

by December 2012; and

• Treat all high-level waste currently

at the INEEL so that it is ready to be

moved out of Idaho by a target date of

2035.

As part of its proposed management

strategy, DOE proposes to use

radionuclide partitioning for radioactive

liquid and calcine waste treatment,

grouting for immobilizing the resulting

low-level waste stream, and glass

vitrification for immobilizing the

resultant high-level waste stream. The

EIS will analyze the proposed action

and reasonable waste management

alternatives to meet the requirements of

the Settlement Agreement/Court Order

and other applicable requirements.

The EIS Schedule

The Settlement Agreement/Court

Order mandates that the ICPP high-level

radioactive waste be prepared for

removal from the State of Idaho by a

target date of 2035. Although the

Settlement Agreement/Court Order in

this regard requires only that DOE issue

a Record of Decision (ROD) no later than

December 31, 2009, based on an EIS that

analyzes alternatives for treating

calcined wastes, DOE plans to complete

a more inclusive EIS and to issue a ROD

by September 1999. DOE is pursuing

this more aggressive schedule so that it

can better ensure meeting its

commitments effectively and in a timely

manner.

Proposed Action

The INEEL Tank Farm currently

stores 3,800 cubic meters of calcined

high-level waste in the bin sets, and

approximately 1.7 million gallons of

high-level and sodium bearing liquid

wastes. The wastes contain hazardous

constituents that are regulated under

RCRA. These wastes also contain

transuranic radionuclides. DOE

proposes to treat these wastes by

separating, for disposal in a geologic

repository, the high-level radioactive

constituents from those constituents

that could be classified as low-level

waste. Hazardous wastes would also be

separated from these materials and

further treated as required by the RCRA

land disposal restrictions. The low-level

radioactive waste would be disposed of

on or off the INEEL, depending on

decisions to be made based on the WM

PEIS.

Under the Proposed Action, the Tank

Farm, bin sets, associated support

buildings, structures, laboratories and

the New Waste Calcining Facility would

be decontaminated and decommisioned

according to a cost-effective, legally

compliant, and environmentally sound

approach. This EIS will examine a

reasonable range of alternatives, such as

various methods of separating

radioactive materials, using different
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 182 / Friday, September 19, 1997 / Notices 49211

materials for encapsulating wastes,

options for Tank Farm decontamination

and decommissioning, and options for

treatment of waste residues left in tanks

and calcine bins. DOE would especially

appreciate suggestions on alternatives

that should be examined.

Preliminary Alternatives

No Action

The Council on Environmental

Quality NEPA Regulations (40 CFR parts

1500–1508), and the DOE NEPA

Regulations (10 CFR part 1021) require

analysis of a no-action alternative.

Under the no-action alternative, DOE

would continue current high-level

radioactive waste management

operations at the ICPP until all residual

waste that can be removed from the

tanks using existing waste transfer

equipment is calcined, but actions to

prepare the waste for disposal would

not be taken. Once operations are

completed, all high-level waste

treatment and storage facilities at the

ICPP would be placed in a stand-by

operational condition. The calcined

high-level waste would be stored in the

existing bin sets, and residual waste

(i.e., the approximately 30,000–40,000

gallons of liquid and solid tank wastes

that would remain when the tanks have

been emptied using existing waste

transfer equipment) would remain in

the Tank Farm indefinitely.

Non-Separation

Under the Non-Separation alternative,

DOE will analyze options for treating

the liquid and calcine high-level waste

to forms that are suitable for permanent

disposal in-place at the INEEL, or

outside of the State of Idaho in a

geologic repository. The calcine would

be pre-treated as necessary, and

immobilized in a glass, glass-ceramic, or

cementatious form, which would be

encapsulated in cylinders or cast into

shapes suitable for placement into

transportation and disposal containers

for disposal outside of the State of

Idaho. Under this alternative the

residual liquid high-level waste

remaining in the Tank Farm would be

solidified or grouted, and the tanks

would be closed in accordance with

RCRA requirements. As described under

the Proposed Action, the ICPP Tank

Farm, bin sets, associated support

buildings, structures, laboratories and

the New Waste Calcining Facility would

be decontaminated and

decommissioned in a cost-effective,

legally compliant, and environmentally

sound manner.

Related NEPA Decisions and Reviews

This EIS will use and supplement as

necessary, the information and analysis

contained in: (1) the Department of

Energy Programmatic Spent Nuclear

Fuel Management and Idaho National

Engineering Laboratory Environmental

Restoration and Waste Management

Programs Environmental Impact

Statement (DOE/EIS–0203–F); and (2)

the DOE Waste Management

Programmatic Environmental Impact

Statement (DOE/EIS–0200–F).

Volume 2 of the SNF & INEL EIS,

issued in April 1995, is a site-wide EIS

for the INEEL. Among other matters,

Volume 2 analyzed the potential

environmental impacts associated with

ongoing high-level waste treatment,

storage and management operations at

the INEEL. In a ROD based on this EIS

(60 FR 28680), the Department decided

to resume operation of the New Waste

Calcining Facility, to convert the highlevel liquid and sodium-bearing liquid

waste to calcine prior to further

treatment. The Department also decided

to construct a facility to treat the

calcined high-level waste (and any

remaining liquid waste) in accordance

with RCRA requirements and on a

schedule to be negotiated with the State

of Idaho under the Federal Facility

Compliance Act.

The DOE WM PEIS, issued May 1997,

is a DOE complex-wide study

examining the environmental impacts

associated with managing five types of

radioactive and hazardous wastes

generated by past, present, and

reasonably foreseeable future activities

at a variety of sites located around the

United States. The five types of waste

examined by the WM PEIS are low-level

mixed waste, low-level waste,

transuranic waste, hazardous waste, and

high-level waste. The WM PEIS

characterizes and identifies volumes of

high-level waste at DOE facilities

nationwide, including the INEEL, and

uses/updates information presented in

the SNF & INEL EIS. The preferred

alternative in the WM PEIS for highlevel waste storage is for each of the four

sites (one of which is INEEL) with

immobilized high-level waste canisters

to store its own immobilized waste

onsite until shipment to a geologic

repository for disposal. A high-level

waste WM PEIS Record of Decision has

not yet been issued.

In addition to the programmatic EISs

described above, other related NEPA

analyses and documents that will be

considered in the analyses of this EIS

include:

• The Advanced Mixed Waste

Treatment Project (AMWTP) EIS—this

EIS will analyze the possible

environmental impacts of thermal

treatment of transuranic and mixed

transuranic waste. The AMWTP is

potentially relevant to the proposed

High-Level Waste and Facilities

Disposition EIS because a small portion

of the inventory of radioactive waste at

the ICPP is being considered for

treatment at the proposed AMWTP. A

notice of intent to prepare this EIS will

be issued shortly.

• The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant

Disposal Phase Supplemental

Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS

II)—the SEIS II analyzes the treatment

and storage of transuranic waste and

disposal of such waste at the Waste

Isolation Pilot Plant in Carlsbad, New

Mexico. The Draft SEIS II was issued in

November 1996; the Final SEIS II is in

preparation. Some radioactive waste at

ICPP may be affected by decisions based

on the SEIS II.

• The Geologic Repository for the

Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and

High-Level Radioactive Waste at Yucca

Mountain Environmental Impact

Statement—this EIS will analyze the

potential environmental impacts

associated with the disposal of highlevel waste and spent nuclear fuel in a

potential geologic repository at Yucca

Mountain in Nevada. The draft EIS is

scheduled to be issued in July 1999. A

Final EIS, scheduled for August 2000,

would accompany any DOE

recommendation to the President

whether to develop Yucca Mountain as

a geologic disposal site. INEEL’s highlevel waste could be eligible for disposal

at Yucca Mountain.

Preliminary Identification of EIS Issues

• Potential environmental impacts on

the Snake River Plain Aquifer.

• Effects of emissions and discharges

from the treatment of liquid and

calcined high-level waste.

• Effects of the storage of

encapsulated high-level waste at the
