6226 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 25 / Monday, February 8, 2010 / Notices 

(Agencywide Documents Access and 

Management System (ADAMS) 

Accession No. ML100050096) and 

December 17, 2009. 

The Need for the Proposed Action 

The proposed action is needed to 

provide the licensee with additional 

time to perform the required upgrades to 

the PINGP security system considering 

the time typically required to design 

and construct modifications of this 

scope, and the impediments to 

construction such as the planned 

refueling outages at both Units 1 and 2 

and weather-related issues. 

Environmental Impacts of the Proposed 

Action 

The NRC has completed its 

environmental assessment of the 

proposed exemption. The staff has 

concluded that the proposed action to 

extend the implementation deadline 

would not significantly affect plant 

safety and would not have a significant 

adverse effect on the probability of an 

accident occurring. 

The proposed action would not result 

in an increased radiological hazard 

beyond those previously analyzed in the 

environmental assessment and finding 

of no significant impact made by the 

Commission in promulgating its 

revisions to 10 CFR part 73, as 

discussed in a Federal Register notice 

dated March 27, 2009 (74 FR 13967). 

There will be no change to radioactive 

effluents that affect radiation exposures 

to plant workers and members of the 

public. Therefore, no changes or 

different types of radiological impacts 

are expected as a result of the proposed 

exemption. 

The proposed action does not result 

in changes to land use or water use, or 

result in changes to the quality or 

quantity of non-radiological effluents. 

No changes to the National Pollution 

Discharge Elimination System permit 

are needed. No effects on the aquatic or 

terrestrial habitat in the vicinity of the 

plant, or to threatened, endangered, or 

protected species under the Endangered 

Species Act, or impacts to essential fish 

habitat covered by the MagnusonSteven’s Act are expected. There are no 

impacts to the air or ambient air quality. 

There are no impacts to historical and 

cultural resources. There would be no 

impact to socioeconomic resources. 

Therefore, no changes to or different 

types of non-radiological environmental 

impacts are expected as a result of the 

proposed exemption. 

Accordingly, the NRC concludes that 

there are no significant environmental 

impacts associated with the proposed 

action. In addition, in promulgating its 

revisions to 10 CFR part 73, the 

Commission prepared an environmental 

assessment and published a finding of 

no significant impact [Part 73, Power 

Reactor Security Requirements, 74 FR 

13926, 13967 (March 27, 2009)]. 

The licensee currently maintains a 

security system acceptable to the NRC 

and will continue to provide acceptable 

physical protection of PINGP. Therefore, 

the extension of the implementation 

date of the new requirements of 10 CFR 

part 73 to June 30, 2011, would not have 

any significant environmental impacts. 

The NRC staff’s safety evaluation will 

be provided in the exemption that will 

be issued as part of the letter to the 

licensee approving the exemption to the 

regulation, if granted. 

Environmental Impacts of the 

Alternatives to the Proposed Action 

As an alternative to the proposed 

action, the NRC staff considered denial 

of the proposed action (i.e., the ‘‘noaction’’ alternative). Denial of the 

exemption request would result in no 

change in current environmental 

impacts. If the proposed action was 

denied, the licensee would have to 

comply with the March 31, 2010 

implementation deadline. The 

environmental impacts of the proposed 

exemption and the ‘‘no action’’ 

alternative are similar. 

Alternative Use of Resources 

The action does not involve the use of 

any different resources than those 

considered in the Final Environmental 

Statement for the Prairie Island Nuclear 

Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2, dated 

May 1973. 

Agencies and Persons Consulted 

In accordance with its stated policy, 

on January 8, 2010, the NRC staff 

consulted with the Minnesota State 

official, Mr. Stephen Rakow of the 

Minnesota Department of Commerce, 

Office of Energy Security, regarding the 

environmental impact of the proposed 

action. The State official had no 

comments. 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

On the basis of the environmental 

assessment, the NRC concludes that the 

proposed action will not have a 

significant effect on the quality of the 

human environment. Accordingly, the 

NRC has determined not to prepare an 

environmental impact statement for the 

proposed action. 

For further details with respect to the 

proposed action, see the licensee’s letter 

dated November 5, 2009, as 

supplemented by letters dated 

November 30, and December 17, 2009. 

The November 5 and December 17, 2009 

letters and portions of the November 30, 

2009 submittal contain security-related 

information and, accordingly, are not 

available to the public. Other parts of 

the November 30, 2009 letter may be
