the 25 casks back to their original, preearthquake positions and spacing. If 

approved, the proposed license 

amendment would allow the casks to 

remain in their current positions. 

The NRC has assessed the potential 

environmental impacts associated with 

the proposed action of amending SNM– 

2507 TS 4.2.3, as well as the no-action 

alternative, and has documented the 

results in the final EA (ADAMS 

Accession No. ML15022A575). The NRC 

staff performed its environmental 

review in accordance with the 

requirements in 10 CFR part 51. In 

conducting the environmental review, 

the NRC considered information in the 

license amendment application; 

information in the responses to the 

NRC’s requests for additional 

information (RAIs); communications 

with Dominion, the Virginia State 

Historic Preservation Office, the 

Virginia Department of Game and 

Inland Fisheries and the Virginia 

Department of Health; information from 

the NRC inspections; and the NRC’s 

independent analysis. 

Approval of Dominion’s proposed 

license amendment would allow the 

casks to remain in place at their current 

post-earthquake positions and spacing, 

and no changes to Dominion’s operation 

and maintenance of the NA ISFSI are 

associated with the proposed action. 

Because the proposed action would 

authorize Dominion to leave the casks 

in their current positions, rather than 

taking action to return the casks to their 

pre-earthquake positions, no significant 

radiological or non-radiological impacts 

are expected to result from approval of 

the license amendment request, and the 

proposed action would not significantly 

contribute to cumulative impacts at the 

NA site. There would be no 

disproportionally high and adverse 

impacts on minority and low-income 

populations. The Virginia State Historic 

Preservation Office concurred with the 

NRC’s determination that the proposed 

action would not affect historic 

properties, and the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service concurred with the 

NRC’s determination that the proposed 

action would not affect listed species or 

critical habitats. Furthermore, the NRC 

determined that the proposed action is 

more favorable than the no-action 

alternative (denial of the license 

amendment request), which would 

require movement of the casks back to 

their pre-earthquake positions and 

spacing. Thus, the NRC concludes that 

the proposed action will not result in a 

significant effect on the quality of the 

human environment. 

III. Finding of No Significant Impact 

Based on its review of the proposed 

action, in accordance with the 

requirements in 10 CFR part 51, the 

NRC has concluded that the proposed 

action, amendment of NRC Special 

Nuclear Materials License No. SNM– 

2507 for the NA ISFSI located in Louisa 

County, Virginia, will not significantly 

affect the quality of the human 

environment. Therefore, the NRC has 

determined, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.31, 

that preparation of an environmental 

impact statement is not required for the 

proposed action and a FONSI is 

appropriate.

Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: License amendment application; 

opportunity to request a hearing and to 

petition for leave to intervene. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) has received an 

application from the Westinghouse

material (SNM) license number SNM– 

1107 that authorizes Westinghouse to 

manufacture nuclear fuel assemblies at 

the Columbia Fuel Fabrication Facility 

(CFFF) in Hopkins, SC, for use in 

commercial nuclear power plants. The 

license renewal would allow 

Westinghouse to continue licensed 

activities for 40 years from the date that 

a renewed license is issued. 

DATES: A request for a hearing or 

petition for leave to intervene must be 

filed by April 28, 2015.
