commercial areas, with a limited 

amount of farming to the northwest. 

Privately owned residences are located 

to the east and south of the facility. 

Tract size is relatively large, leading to 

a low housing density in the areas 

adjacent to the facility. The CSX 

railroad right-of-way is parallel to the 

western boundary of the site. Industrial 

development is located adjacent to the 

railroad on the opposite side of the 

right-of-way. The site is bounded by 

Martin Creek to the north with privately 

owned, vacant property and low-density 

residences. 

Environmental Impacts of Proposed 

Action and Alternatives 

1. Occupational and Public Health 

Proposed Action 

The occupational and public health 

impacts from the proposed action are 

essentially the same as those considered 

in the previous environmental 

assessments. If the exemption is 

granted, inactive processing lines will 

remain in a safe-shutdown mode, which 

will reduce the emissions from normal 

operations and reduce the risk of 

accidents. However, the reductions 

would be so small that the differences 

would be negligible. 

No Action 

Denying this amendment request 

would not result in any significant 

difference in the occupational and 

public health impacts when compared 

to the proposed action. If this 

amendment and exemption request is 

denied, the licensee may be cited for 

failing to submit a required report. 

However, the material cannot be 

inventoried until it is processed into an 

appropriate form. The facility will 

continue to implement NRC-approved 

radiation safety procedures for storing 

and handling radioactive materials. 

Thus, the impacts under the ‘‘no action’’ 

alternative will remain within 

acceptable regulatory limits. 

2. Effluent Releases, Environmental 

Monitoring, Water Resources, Geology, 

Soils, Air Quality, Demography, Biota, 

Cultural and Historic Resources 

Proposed Action 

The NRC staff has determined that the 

approval of the proposed action will not 

impact effluent releases, environmental 

monitoring, water resources, geology, 

soils, air quality, demography, biota, or 

cultural or historic resources at or near 

the NFS site. 

No Action 

The NRC staff has determined that 

denial of the proposed action will not 

impact effluent releases, environmental 

monitoring, water resources, geology, 

soils, air quality, demography, biota, or 

cultural or historic resources at or near 

the NFS site. 

Conclusion 

Based on its review, the NRC has 

concluded that the environmental 

impacts associated with the proposed 

action are not significant and, therefore, 

do not warrant the preparation of an 

EIS. The NRC has determined that the 

proposed action, approval of the license 

amendment and exemption as 

described, is the appropriate alternative 

for selection. Based on an evaluation of 

the environmental impacts of the 

proposed action, the NRC has 

determined that the proper action is to 

issue a FONSI. 

Agencies and Persons Contacted 

On April 26, 2010, the NRC staff 

contacted the Division of Radiological 

Health in the Tennessee Department of 

Environment and Conservation (TDEC) 

concerning this EA. On April 30, 2010, 

TDEC responded that it had reviewed 

the draft EA and had no comments (Ref. 

6). 

The NRC staff has determined that the 

proposed action will not affect listed 

species or critical habitat. Therefore, no 

consultation is required under Section 7 

of the Endangered Species Act. 

Likewise, the NRC staff has determined 

that the proposed action is not the type 

of activity that has the potential to cause 

effects on historic properties. Therefore, 

no consultation is required under 

Section 106 of the National Historic 

Preservation Act.

III. Finding of No Significant Impact 

Pursuant to 10 CFR part 51, the NRC 

staff has considered the environmental 

consequences of amending NRC 

Materials License SNM–124 to grant a 

one-time exemption from the physical 

inventory deadline for strategic special 

nuclear material. On the basis of this 

EA, the NRC has concluded that there 

are no significant environmental 

impacts associated with the proposed 

amendment and has determined not to 

prepare an EIS for the proposed 

amendment.
