NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[NRC–2014–0178] 

Standard Review Plan for Conventional 

Uranium Mills and Heap Leach 

Facilities

members of the public to develop and 

submit their comments.

been reopened. Comments should be 

filed no later than June 18, 2015. 

Comments received after this date will

consideration only for comments 

received on or before this date.

II. Discussion 

On December 18, 2014, the NRC 

published a request for public comment 

on draft NUREG–2126, ‘‘Standard 

Review Plan for Conventional Uranium 

Mills and Heap Leach Facilities.’’ 

Pursuant to the provisions of part 40 of 

Title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations, (10 CFR), ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Source Material,’’ an NRC 

materials license is required to conduct 

uranium recovery activities by 

conventional mill or heap leach 

techniques. Applicants for a new license 

and operators seeking an amendment or 

renewal of an existing license are 

required to provide detailed information 

on the facilities, equipment, and 

procedures to be used in the proposed 

activities. This information is used by 

the NRC staff to determine whether the 

proposed activities will be protective of 

public health and safety and the 

environment. Each section in draft 

NUREG–2126 provides guidance on 

what information is to be reviewed, the 

basis for the review, how the NRC staff 

review is to be accomplished, what the 

staff will find acceptable in a 

demonstration of compliance with 

applicable regulations, and the 

evaluation criteria for determining 

compliance with the applicable 

regulations. Draft NUREG–2126 is 

intended to improve the understanding 

of the NRC staff’s review process by 

interested members of the public and 

the uranium recovery industry. Any 

interested party may submit comments 

on draft NUREG–2126 for consideration 

by the NRC staff. The public comment 

period closed on March 18, 2015. The 

National Mining Association (NMA) 

submitted a letter on February 26, 2015 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML15062A629), 

requesting a 90-day extension of the 

public comment period on this 

document. Additionally, the State of 

Utah submitted a letter on March 16, 

2015 requesting a 60-day extension of 

the public comment period on this 

document (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML15082A286). The Commission may 

grant, in its discretion, the additional 

reasonable opportunity for the 

submission of comments. In the present 

case, as the request for an extension 

from NMA points out, there are two 

notable current Federal Register notices 

on this general subject matter that have 

been noticed for public comment, 

including the present document, as well 

as the Environmental Protection 

Agency’s (EPA) proposed 40 CFR part 

192 rulemaking. The State of Utah cites 

its current workload and role in 

regulating the only operating 

conventional uranium mill in the 

United States as reasons for extending 

the comment period. As such, these 

factors justify the Commission granting 

additional reasonable opportunity for 

the submission of comments. The NRC 

has decided to reopen the public 

comment period on this document until 

June 18, 2015, to allow more time for 

members of the public to develop and 

submit their comments. 

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 8th day 

of April 2015.

Decommissioning, Uranium Recovery and 

Waste Programs, Office of Nuclear Material

Although a time limit is given, 

comments and suggestions in 

connection with items for inclusion in 

guides currently being developed or 

improvements in all published guides 

are encouraged at any time.
