SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I 

Foster Wheeler Environmental 

Corporation (FWENC) is the holder of 

Special Nuclear Materials License No. 

2512 (SNM–2512), issued by the 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC 

or Commission) pursuant to 10 CFR part 

72. SNM–2512 authorizes FWENC to 

construct and operate the Idaho Spent 

Fuel (ISF) Facility in accordance with 

the terms and conditions specified 

therein. The yet-to-be constructed ISF 

Facility is an independent spent fuel 

storage installation (ISFSI) which, if 

constructed, will be located adjacent to 

the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) 

Idaho Nuclear Technology and 

Engineering Center site on the Idaho 

National Laboratory grounds in Idaho. 

II 

By application dated May 30, 2008, as 

supplemented by letter dated June 8, 

2009 (Agencywide Documents Access 

and Management System [ADAMS] 

Accession Nos. ML081630246 and 

ML091660593, respectively), DOE 

submitted a request, to NRC, for 

approval of a proposed direct transfer of 

SNM–2512, under section 184 of the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended 

(AEA), and 10 CFR 72.50. 

SNM–2512 was issued to FWENC to 

construct and operate the ISF Facility 

ISFSI. As of this date, no facility has 

been constructed, but FWENC continues 

to hold SNM–2512. The proposed 

license transfer would result in DOE 

holding SNM–2512. The application 

also requested a conforming license 

amendment to reflect the proposed 

transfer of SNM License No. 2512 to 

DOE. No physical changes to the ISF 

Facility ISFSI design or operational 

changes were proposed in the 

application. 

Approval of the application was 

requested pursuant to section 184 of the 

AEA, and 10 CFR 72.50. Notice of 

consideration of approval of the 

application and an opportunity for a 

hearing was published in the Federal 

Register on, February 25, 2009 (74 FR 

8587). No hearing requests or written 

comments were received. The June 8, 

2009, supplement, which was not 

identified in the Federal Register 

notice, provided a revision to Chapter 9 

of the Safety Analysis Report. The 

revision delineates a full construction/ 

operating organization, pending a 

decision by DOE to proceed with the 

deployment of the ISF Facility ISFSI. 

This revision to the organizational 

description has been determined to be 

administrative in nature and not to 

present any safety issue. 

The Commission’s approval of this 

direct transfer of SNM–2512, and any 

related, conforming license amendments 

to SNM–2512, are categorically 

excluded from further environmental 

review, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(c)(21). 

Under 10 CFR 72.50, no license nor 

any part included in a license issued 

under 10 CFR part 72 for an ISFSI shall 

be transferred, assigned, or in any 

manner disposed of, either voluntarily 

or involuntarily, directly or indirectly, 

through transfer of control of the license 

to any person, unless the Commission 

gives its consent in writing. Upon 

review of the information submitted in 

the application and other information 

before the Commission, the NRC staff 

has determined that the direct transfer 

of control of SNM–2512, as described 

above, is consistent with applicable 

provisions of the law, and the 

regulations and orders issued by the 

Commission. These findings are 

supported by a Safety Evaluation dated 

July 17, 2009 (ADAMS No. 

ML091940481). 

III 

Accordingly, pursuant to sections 

161b, 161i, and 184 of the AEA, 42 USC 

2201(b), 2201(i), and 2234, and 10 CFR 

72.50, the Commission gives notice that 

it has issued an order (Order) approving 

DOE’s application dated May 30, 2008, 

as supplemented by letter dated June 8, 

2009, for the direct transfer of SNM– 

2512 from FWENC to DOE, and for 

conforming license amendments. 

The Order is effective upon issuance. 

For further details, see the application 

dated May 30, 2008, as supplemented 

by letter dated June 8, 2009; the safety 

evaluation report; and the Order 

(ADAMS Nos. ML081630246, 

ML091660593, ML091940481, and 

ML091940453, respectively). These 

documents are available for public 

inspection at the Commission’s Public 

Document Room (PDR), located at One 

White Flint North, Public File Area O1
