NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

[Docket No. 70–3073]

Notice of Consideration of Amendment

Request for Cushing Refinery Site,

Cushing, Oklahoma and Opportunity

for a Hearing

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (NRC) is considering

issuance of a license amendment to

Materials License SNM–1999. The KerrMcGee Corporation’s (Kerr-McGee or

the licensee) has requested to have a

portion of the property released, for

unrestricted use, from the Cushing

Refinery Site (Cushing) License. This

action is taken in response to KerrMcGee’s license amendment request,

dated November 10, 2000, and

supplemented by letter dated January

19, 2001. The licensee requested that

the portion of site blocks 116, 117, 124,

and 125 south of Skull Creek be released

for unrestricted use and removed from

the license. The area that is being

considered for release from the license

encompasses a sediment pond located

in Unaffected Area 2 (UA–2). This

sediment pond is normally used as a

collection area for sediments generated

during treatment of water removed from

Pit 5. A routine discharge of treated

wastewater to Skull Creek in June 1998,

resulted in the inadvertent release of

some of the pond sediment not

releasable under the licensee’s discharge

permit. Although Skull Creek was

radiologically decontaminated in 1991,

it is located within a radiologically

affected area. Therefore, sediments

removed from Skull Creek and placed

into UA–2 Sediment Pond had a

potential of containing licensed

material. The proposed boundary of the

licensed area is shown in Figure 1,

‘‘Cushing, Oklahoma Refinery Site,

Proposed Licensed Site’’, of the January

19, 2001, letter.

If the NRC approves the license

amendment, the approval will be

documented in a license amendment to

NRC’s license SNM–1999. However,

before approving the proposed license

amendment, NRC will need to make the

findings required by the Atomic Energy

Act of 1954, as amended, and NRC’s

regulations.

NRC hereby provides notice that this

is a proceeding on an application for an

amendment of a license falling within

the scope of Subpart L, ‘‘Informal

Hearing Procedures for Adjudication in

Materials Licensing Proceedings’’, of

NRC’s rules of practice for domestic

licensing proceedings in 10 CFR Part 2.

Pursuant to § 2.1205(a), any person

whose interest may be affected by this

proceeding may file a request for a

hearing in accordance with § 2.1205(d).

A request for a hearing must be filed

within thirty (30) days of the date of

publication of this Federal Register

notice.

The request for a hearing must be

filed with the Office of the Secretary

In addition to meeting other

applicable requirements of 10 CFR Part

2 of NRC’s regulations, a request for a

hearing filed by a person other than an

applicant must describe in detail:

1. The interest of the requester in the

proceeding;

2. How that interest may be affected

by the results of the proceeding,

including the reasons why the requester

should be permitted a hearing, with

particular reference to the factors set out
