AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Draft environmental impact 

statement; request for comment and

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is issuing for public 

comment a draft Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) for Westinghouse 

Electric Company, LLC’s (WEC’s) 

license renewal application to continue 

to operate its Columbia Fuel Fabrication 

Facility (CFFF) for an additional 40 

years. The CFFF is located in Hopkins, 

South Carolina, and manufactures 

nuclear fuel assemblies for commercial 

nuclear power plants. The WEC’s 

license renewal request, if granted as 

proposed, would allow the CFFF to 

continue to be a source of nuclear fuel 

for commercial nuclear power plants for 

40 years from the date the NRC 

approves the renewal.

public meeting through online webinar

III. Discussion 

The NRC is issuing for public 

comment the draft EIS for WEC’s license 

renewal application, which includes the 

NRC staff’s analysis that evaluates the 

environmental impacts of the proposed 

action and alternatives to the proposed 

action. Based on the NRC staff’s (i) 

review of the license renewal 

application request, which includes the 

environmental report, supplemental 

documents, and the licensee’s responses 

to the NRC staff’s requests for additional 

information; (ii) consultation with 

Federal, State, and Tribal agencies and 

input from other stakeholders; and (iii) 

independent review as documented in 

the assessments summarized in the draft 

EIS, the NRC staff has concluded that 

the proposed action would result in 

small impacts on all resource areas 

except for groundwater resources for 

which the impacts would be small to 

moderate.
