Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 175 / Monday, September 12, 2005 / Notices 53815 

Significant Impact (FONSI) is 

appropriate. The amendment will be 

issued following the publication of this 

Notice. 

II. EA Summary 

The purpose of the action is to 

authorize the release of the licensee’s 

Princeton, New Jersey facility for 

unrestricted use. Elan Operations, Inc. 

(known as The Liposome Company at 

the time) was authorized by NRC from 

April 23, 1982, to use radioactive 

materials for research and development 

purposes at the site. On February 26, 

2005, Elan Operations, Inc. requested 

that NRC release the facility for 

unrestricted use. Elan Operations, Inc. 

has conducted surveys of the facility 

and provided information to the NRC to 

demonstrate that the site meets the 

license termination criteria in subpart E 

of 10 CFR part 20 for unrestricted use. 

The NRC staff has prepared an EA in 

support of the license amendment. The 

facility was remediated and surveyed 

prior to the licensee requesting the 

license amendment. The NRC staff has 

reviewed the information and final 

status survey submitted by Elan 

Operations, Inc. Based on its review, the 

staff has determined that there are no 

additional remediation activities 

necessary to complete the proposed 

action. Therefore, the staff considered 

the impact of the residual radioactivity 

at the facility and concluded that since 

the residual radioactivity meets the 

requirements in subpart E of 10 CFR 

part 20, a Finding of No Significant 

Impact is appropriate. 

III. Finding of No Significant Impact 

The staff has prepared the EA 

(summarized above) in support of the 

license amendment to terminate the 

license and release the facility for 

unrestricted use. The NRC staff has 

evaluated Elan Operations, Inc.’s 

request and the results of the surveys 

and has concluded that the completed 

action complies with the criteria in 

Subpart E of 10 CFR Part 20. The staff 

has found that the radiological 

environmental impacts from the action 

are bounded by the impacts evaluated 

by NUREG–1496, Volumes 1–3, 

‘‘Generic Environmental Impact 

Statement in Support of Rulemaking on 

Radiological Criteria for License 

Termination of NRC-Licensed 

Facilities’’ (ML042310492, 

ML042320379, and ML042330385). 

Additionally, no non-radiological or 

cumulative impacts were identified. On 

the basis of the EA, the NRC has 

concluded that the environmental 

impacts from the action are expected to 

be insignificant and has determined not 

to prepare an environmental impact 

statement for the action.
