unauthorized access through the 

following appropriate safeguards: 

• Administrative: Access to all 

records is limited to lawful government 

purposes only, with access to electronic 

records based on role and either twofactor authentication or password 

protection. The system requires 

passwords to be complex and to be 

changed frequently. Users accessing 

system records undergo frequent 

training in Privacy Act and information 

security requirements. Security and 

privacy controls are reviewed on an 

ongoing basis. 

• Technical: Computerized records 

systems are safeguarded on 

Departmental networks configured for 

role-based access based on job 

responsibilities and organizational 

affiliation. Privacy and security controls 

are in place for this system and are 

updated in accordance with applicable 

requirements as determined by NIST 

and DOE directives and guidance. 

• Physical: Computer servers on 

which electronic records are stored are 

located in secured Department facilities, 

which are protected by security guards, 

identification badges, and cameras. 

Paper copies of all records are locked in 

file cabinets, file rooms, or offices and 

are under the control of authorized 

personnel. Access to these facilities is 

granted only to authorized personnel 

and each person granted access to the 

system must be an individual 

authorized to use and/or administer the 

system. 

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES: 

The Department follows the 

procedures outlined in 10 CFR 1008.4. 

Valid identification of the individual 

making the request is required before

access granted, or a correction 

considered, to ensure that information is 

processed, given, corrected, or records 

disclosed or corrected only at the 

request of the proper person. 

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES: 

Any individual may submit a request 

to the System Manager and request a 

copy of any records relating to them. In 

accordance with 10 CFR 1008.11, any 

individual may appeal the denial of a 

request made by him or her for 

information about or for access to or 

correction or amendment of records. An 

appeal shall be filed within 90 calendar

National Nuclear Security 

Administration 

Record of Decision for Adoption of 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s 

(NRC) Environmental Impact Statement 

Related to the Operating License for 

the SHINE Medical Isotope Production 

Facility 

AGENCY: National Nuclear Security 

Administration, Department of Energy. 

ACTION: Record of decision. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Energy’s National Nuclear Security 

Administration (DOE/NNSA) intends to 

issue a modification to its cooperative 

agreement with SHINE Technologies, 

DE–NA0004010, to revise the scope of 

the agreement to include cost-shared 

funding for facility construction. 

Issuance of the modification is subject 

to satisfactory completion of pricing and 

other technical reviews. The 

environmental impacts of this proposed 

action have been addressed in the U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC) 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

NUREG–2183 and NUREG–2183, 

Supplement 1. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

information on NNSA’s National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) 

process, please contact Mr. James 

Sanderson, NEPA Compliance Officer, 

National Nuclear Security 

Administration, Office of General 

Counsel, at jim.sanderson@nnsa.doe.gov 

or (202) 586–1402. This Record of 

Decision is available at https://

energy.gov/nepa. The NRC EIS and 

supplement are available at: https://

Environmental Impact Statement for the 

Construction Permit for the SHINE 

Medical Radioisotope Production 

Facility Final Report and NUREG–2183, 

Supplement 1, ‘‘Environmental Impact 

Statement Related to the Operating 

License for the SHINE Medical Isotope 

Production Facility’’ Final Report). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. 

medical community depends on a 

reliable supply of the radioisotope 

molybdenum-99 (Mo–99) for nuclear 

medical diagnostic procedures. Mo–99’s 

decay product, technetium–99m (Tc– 

99m), is used in over 40,000 medical 

procedures in the United States each 

day to diagnose heart disease and 

cancer, to study organ structure and 

function, and to perform other 

important medical applications. In 

2012, Congress passed the American 

Medical Isotopes Production Act, which 

directed NNSA to establish a 

technology-neutral program to support 

the establishment of domestic supplies 

of Mo–99 without the use of highly 

enriched uranium (HEU). NNSA has 

implemented this by competitively 

awarding 50/50 percent cost-shared 

cooperative agreements to commercial 

entities and providing funds to DOE’s 

National Laboratories to support 

development of non-HEU Mo–99 

production technologies. Currently, the 

scope of NNSA’s cooperative agreement 

with SHINE Technologies includes 

activities such as equipment 

procurement but does not include 

facility construction. 

In 2015, the NRC and NNSA issued 

NUREG–2183, ‘‘Environmental Impact 

Statement for the Construction Permit 

for the SHINE Medical Radioisotope 

Production Facility’’ (NRC 2015), which 

discussed the environmental impacts of 

constructing, operating, and 

decommissioning the SHINE Medical 

Isotope Production Facility (SHINE 

facility) in Janesville, Wisconsin. In 

2016, at the conclusion of its safety and 

environmental reviews, the NRC issued 

a construction permit for the SHINE 

facility (NRC 2016). In July 2019, SHINE 

Medical Technologies, LLC (SHINE) 

submitted to the NRC an application for 

an operating license for the SHINE 

facility. When a final environmental 

impact statement (FEIS) has been 

prepared in connection with the 

issuance of a construction permit for a 

facility, the NRC is required to prepare 

a supplement to the FEIS in connection 

with any issuance of an operating 

license for that facility in accordance 

with 10 Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) 51.95(b). This supplement 

updates the prior environmental review 

and only covers matters that differ from 

those or that reflect significant new 

information relative to that discussed in 

the FEIS. Accordingly, in response to 

SHINE’s operating license application, 

NRC and NNSA staff issued NUREG– 

2183, Supplement 1, which considered
