intensive study of existing reports and data

on the subject, and open-ended inquiry to

experienced providers of undergraduate

education. Phase II of the project will rely

upon a preliminary summary of the findings

from Phase I prepared by NSF staff that will

be presented for comment and elaboration to

a large number of persons experienced in

undergraduate education, particularly to

those faculty and administrators attending

key professional society meetings. In Phase

III, the NSF will seek to publicize and

encourage implementation of those practices

that will achieve improved science and

engineering literacy; a technically capable

workforce; well-prepared teachers, scientists

and engineers; and greater participation in

SMET careers by women and minorities.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50–483]

Union Electric Co., Callaway Plant;

Environmental Assessment and

Finding of No Significant Impact

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (the Commission) is

considering issuance of an exemption

from Facility Operating License No.

NPF–30, issued to Union Electric

Company, (the licensee), for the

Callaway Plant, located in Callaway

County, Missouri.

Environmental Assessment

Identification of Proposed Action

The proposed action would grant an

exemption from a requirement of

Section III.D.1.(a) of Appendix J to 10

CFR Part 50, which requires a set of

three Type A tests (Containment

Integrated Leakage Rate Test or CILRT)

be performed, at approximately equal

intervals during each 10-year service

period. This licensee request for an

exemption would defer the next

scheduled containment integrated leak

rate test for one outage, from Refuel 7

to Refuel 8.

The proposed action is in accordance

with the licensee’s request for

exemption dated December 9, 1994, as

supplemented by letter dated January

27, 1995.

The Need for the Proposed Action

The proposed action is needed

because the licensee’s current schedule

would require the third CILRT to be

performed during Refuel 7 (March

1995). Minimal safety benefit would be

realized by performing the scheduled

CILRT, since the majority of primary

containment leakage has previously

been identified through the biennial

performance of the Local Leak Rate Test

(LLRT). Without this exemption, the

licensee would incur additional

personnel radiation exposure during

system reconfigurations, and

instrumentation setup and restoration.

Environmental Impacts of the Proposed

Action

The Commission has completed its

evaluation of the proposed action and

concludes that the exemption would not

significantly increase the probability or

amount of expected containment

leakage, and that containment integrity

would thus be maintained.

The change will not increase the

probability or consequences of

accidents, no changes are being made in

the types of any effluents that may be

released offsite, and there is no

significant increase in the allowable

individual or cumulative occupational

radiation exposure. Accordingly, the

Commission concludes that there are no

significant radiological environmental

impacts associated with the proposed

action.

With regard to potential

nonradiological impacts, the proposed

action does involve features located

entirely within the restricted area as

defined in 10 CFR part 20. It does not

affect nonradiological plant effluents

and has no other environmental impact.

Accordingly, the Commission concludes

that there are no significant

nonradiological environmental impacts

associated with the proposed action.

Alternative to the Proposed Action

Since the Commission has concluded

there is no measurable environmental

impacts associated with the proposed

action, any alternatives with equal or

greater environmental impact need not

be evaluated. As an alternative to the

proposed action, the staff considered

denial of the proposed action. Denial of

the application would result in no

change in current environmental

impacts. The environmental impacts of

the proposed action and the alternative

action are similar.

Alternative Use of Resources

This action does not involve the use

of any resources not previously

considered in the ‘‘Final Environmental

Statement related to the operation of

Callaway Plant, Unit No. 1,’’ dated

January 1982.

Agencies and Persons Consulted

In accordance with its stated policy,

the staff consulted with the Missouri

State official regarding the

environmental impact of the proposed

action. The State official had no

comments.

Finding of No Significant Impact

Based upon the environmental

assessment, the Commission concludes

that the proposed action will not have

a significant effect on the quality of the

human environment. Accordingly, the

Commission has determined not to

prepare an environmental impact

statement for the proposed action.

For further details with respect to this

proposed action, see the licensee’s

letters dated December 9, 1994, and

January 27, 1995, which are available

for public inspection at the

Commission’s Public Document Room,

The Gelman Building, 2120 L Street,

NW., Washington DC and at the local

public document room located at the
