SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Discussion 

The NRC has issued a license to ISP 

for its WCS CISF in Andrews County, 

Texas (ADAMS Package Accession No. 

ML21188A096). Materials License No. 

SNM–2515 authorizes ISP to construct 

and operate its facility as proposed in its 

license application, as amended, and to 

receive, possess, store, and transfer 

spent nuclear fuel, including a small 

quantity of mixed-oxide fuel, and 

Greater-than-Class-C radioactive waste 

at the WCS CISF. The license authorizes 

ISP to store up to 5,000 metric tons of 

uranium [5,500 short tons] of spent 

nuclear fuel for a license period of 40 

years. ISP will be required to operate 

under the conditions listed in Materials 

License No. SNM–2515. 

The NRC staff’s ROD that supports the 

NRC’s decision to approve ISP’s license 

application for the WCS CISF and to 

issue Materials License No. SNM–2515 

is available in ADAMS under Accession 

No. ML21222A214. The ROD satisfies 

the regulatory requirement in section 

51.102 paragraph (a) of title 10 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), 

which requires that a Commission 

decision on any action for which a final 

environmental impact statement (EIS) 

has been prepared be accompanied by 

or include a concise public ROD. As 

discussed in the ROD and the final EIS 

for ISP’s license application for a CISF 

for spent nuclear fuel in Andrews 

County, Texas (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML21209A955), the NRC staff 

considered a range of reasonable 

alternatives that included the No-Action 

alternative, as required by the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as 

amended; storage at a governmentowned CISF; alternative design and 

storage technologies; and alternative 

locations. The final EIS documents the 

environmental review, including the 

NRC staff’s recommendation to issue an 

NRC license to ISP to construct and 

operate a CISF for spent nuclear fuel at 

the proposed location, subject to the 

determinations in the NRC staff’s safety 

review of the application. The final EIS 

conclusion is based on the NRC staff’s 

independent environmental review, as 

well as (i) the license application, which 

includes the environmental report and 

supplemental documents and ISP’s 

responses to the NRC staff’s requests for 

additional information; (ii) consultation 

with Federal, State, Tribal, and local 

agencies and input from other 

stakeholders, including members of the 

public; and (iii) the assessments 

provided in the final EIS. 

The NRC staff prepared a final safety 

evaluation report that documents the 

staff’s safety and security review of the 

application (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML21188A101). The staff’s safety and 

security review found that the 

application met applicable NRC 

regulations in 10 CFR part 72, 

‘‘Licensing Requirements for the 

Independent Storage of Spent Nuclear 

Fuel, High-Level Radioactive Waste, and 

Reactor-Related Greater than Class C 

Waste.’’ 

Documents related to the application 

carry Docket ID NRC–2016–0231. These 

documents for the ISP license include 

the license application, the applicant’s 

safety analysis report, emergency plan, 

physical security plan, environmental 

report, updates to these documents, and 

applicant supplements and responses to 

NRC staff requests for additional 

information, and the NRC staff’s final 

safety evaluation report, final EIS, and 

ROD. 

ISP’s request for a materials license 

was previously noticed in the Federal 

Register on November 14, 2016 (81 FR 

79531). A notice of docketing with an 

opportunity to request a hearing and to 

petition for leave to intervene was 

published in the Federal Register on 

January 30, 2017 (82 FR 8773). Four 

groups of petitioners filed petitions to 

intervene. An Atomic Safety and 

Licensing Board considered petitions 

and admitted one contention. The Board 

subsequently dismissed the contention 

as moot after ISP supplemented its 

application with information that the 

contention had noted was missing, and 

the Board subsequently terminated the 

adjudicatory proceeding. Intervenors 

appealed the decisions to the 

Commission, and the Commission 

affirmed the Board decisions, with one 

new contention remanded to the Board 

for consideration. The Board 

subsequently dismissed the remanded 

contention, and the Commission denied 

an appeal of the Board decision. 

In issuing a materials license to ISP 

for the WCS CISF, the NRC has 

determined based on its review of this 

application that there is reasonable 

assurance that: (i) The activities 

authorized by the license can be 

conducted without endangering the 

health and safety of the public; and (ii) 

these activities will be conducted in 

compliance with the applicable 

regulations of 10 CFR part 72. The NRC 

has further determined that the issuance 

of the license will not be inimical to the 

common defense and security. 

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of 

the NRC’s ‘‘Rules of Practice,’’ the 

details with respect to this action, 

including the final safety evaluation 

report and accompanying 

documentation and license, are 

available electronically in the ADAMS 

Public Documents collection at https:// 

www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.

Postal Service for each request. For each 

request, the Commission appoints an 

officer of the Commission to represent 

the interests of the general public in the 

proceeding, pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 505 

(Public Representative). Section II also
