The average mass attenuation coefficients for the studied samples were found to be 0.513, 0.316, 0.195, 0.155, 0.134, 0.096, 0.077, 0.058, and 0.055 cm (super 2) g (super -1) at previous energies, respectively. The results have shown that Ca and Fe contents of the samples have strong effect on the mass attenuation coefficient at lower energies. In addition, self-attenuation correction factors determined using mass attenuation coefficient was in good agreement with addition spiked reference material method provided that the sample thickness is 2.7 cm. However, mass attenuation coefficients determined in this study can be used for determination of gamma emitters at energy ranges from 46.5 to 1332 keV in any soil and sediment samples having density of 1.0-1.7 g cm (super -3) .

The VES technique with its different applied approaches is inexpensive, easy and gives rapid results with high spatial resolution. The Dar-Zarrouk parameters were determined to estimate the groundwater potential of the aquifers. The results show the mean transmissivity of the Quaternary aquifer to be 49 m super(2)/d (minimum: 10 m super(2)/d; maximum: 131 m super(2)/d; standard deviation: 32 m super(2)/d), and that of the Palaeogene aquifer is 0.94 m super(2)/d (minimum: 0.31 m super(2)/d; maximum: 1.54 m super(2)/d; standard deviation: 0.33 m super(2)/d).

The composition of stable isotopes delta super(18)O and delta super(2)H, together with super(14)C activity, reflect the existence of three different groups: (a) groundwater in the Coastal Mountains with delta super(18)O of -6.65ppt, quite similar to modern-day precipitation, and high super(14)C (>50 pmC); (b) groundwater in the unconfined aquifer of the Hama Uplift, which has delta super(18)O of -5.52ppt and super(14)C near 20 pmC, and is recharged locally; and (c) groundwater from the confined aquifer of the Homs Depression, which is characterized by more depleted delta super(18)O,, -8.01ppt, and low super(14)C (<7 pmC), and might be recharged in the northern piedmont of the Anti-Lebanon Mountains. The distinctive isotope signatures of the latter two groups indicate different recharge elevations and palaeoclimatic effects. The low recharge rate of the groundwater in the Hama Uplift aquifer, and the even slower recharge rate in the Homs Depression aquifer, are reflected by groundwater super(14)C residence times of 5 and over 22 Ka BP, respectively.

This paper introduces a multidisciplinary investigation that uses unfractured hoodoos in seismically active regions to constrain the level of ground accelerations at those locations. Although there is a large uncertainty associated with the age of the hoodoos because of their rapidly eroding nature, they can still be useful in providing physical limits on ground motions associated with recent large events. Here, we consider the fragilities of two hoodoos in the Red Rock Canyon region within a few kilometers of the Garlock fault, which is an active strike-slip fault in a transtensional region with at least a few large earthquakes in the Holocene. The hoodoos at these sites could be evidence of median or relatively low ground motions associated with large transtensional strike-slip earthquakes. Results of our field and laboratory tests on two hoodoos provide constraints on peak ground accelerations (PGAs) of Formula and Formula . Using the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) probabilistic seismic hazard (PSH) deaggregation, the dominant earthquake contributing to the hazard at the site of the hoodoos for the recurrence intervals of 475, 975, and 2475 years is located at a distance of 4.8 km and has a magnitude of 7.63, consistent with the observed paleoearthquake evidence on the Garlock fault. The PGAs corresponding to these three return periods are 0.26, 0.40, and Formula , respectively. Therefore, the survival of the more fragile hoodoo during a presumably large event on the Garlock fault in the past 550 years would be consistent with the 2008 seismic hazard level if the ground motions during that event were below the median value.

Because these regulatory schemes are separate, there is no requirement that loaded storage casks also meet transportation requirements. Background After more than 20 years of regulatory experience with dry cask storage and in the anticipation of longer storage durations and with more nuclear power plants storing high burnup fuel (fuel with peak rod average burnup greater than 45,000 MWd/MTU is considered high burnup fuel), the NRC is reviewing its policies and regulatory framework for dry cask storage and spent fuel transportation in several key areas.

At equilibrium the predominant soluble and solid forms of uranium can be estimated using thermodynamic data and aqueous geochemical speciation codes. The quality of calculations is mainly related to the quality and completeness of the entry data. Within the working group "Speciation" of the CETAMA a round-robin modeling exercize was conducted about the U(VI) speciation in waters of known compositions. The objectives were: i) to test thermodynamic data bases; ii) to compare the modelers' methods in selecting data; and iii) to evaluate the effect of inorganic species on the U(VI) speciation and solubility. A recent experimental study on the speciation of uranium in drinking waters have shown that calcium uranium carbonato complexes play an important role. The modeling exercise was build on the basis of water compositions of two of these samples. Other water compositions were derived from these in order to better check U(VI) speciation changes with the bicarbonate content, the saline content and [Ca (super 2+) ] and [Mg (super 2+) ]. The participants of this exercise were asked to provide the distribution of soluble uranium species and evaluate the uranium solubility-controlling solid phase for each water. The main outcome is on the importance of alkaline earth carbonato ternary complexes such as Ca (sub 2) UO (sub 2) (CO (sub 3) ) (sub 3) (aq), CaUO (sub 2) (CO (sub 3) ) (sub 3) (super 2-) , and MgUO (sub 2) (CO (sub 3) ) (sub 3) (super 2-) . These species were reported in recent publications, but rarely included in available data bases. As a consequence it emphasizes the necessity of continuous enrichment of data bases with a consistent approach to avoid bias. Moreover, the amount of uranium in solution could be calculated considering various solubility-controlling phases though such estimations definitely requires the expertise of the geochemist.

A survey of the RF electromagnetic radiation at public access points in the vicinity of 20 frequency-modulated (FM) radio stations has been made in Accra, Ghana. The fundamental object was to determine the levels of RF fields from FM broadcast antennae within 10-200 m radius about the foot of the FM base station and at a height of 1.5 m above the ground at selected locations. A spectrum analyser and a bi-conical antenna element sensitive and effective within the frequency band of 30-300 MHz were used. Results obtained indicated that the levels of electric field strength ranged from 5.4E--04 V m super(-1) at FM station 'O' to 7.4E--08 V m super(-1) at FM station 'D'. At a transmission frequency range of 88--108 MHz, the variation of power densities is from 2.5E--10 to 1.5E--17 Wm super(-2). These values are very low and are far below the reference level set by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection and therefore do not pose any known hazard to the inhabitants of Accra, Ghana. The electric field levels presented in this work are comparable with those reported from epidemiological studies conducted elsewhere.

The calibration factors (CFs) of the set of survey meters indicated that similar to 91.04% were within the acceptable limit of plus or minus 20.0%. A higher percentage of the survey meters indicated CFs in the range of 0.95-1.15 except a few of them which indicated values 1.15. The degree of uncertainty in the measurements ranged from 0.03 to 17% with the majority of them ranging from 0.03 to 6.0% and a few of them >6.0%. The results show that most of the survey meters calibrated were within the requirements of the regulations and may provide data for future development of calibration techniques in the country.

Establishment of a DRL is a requirement of national regulations. Measurements performed by the Greek Atomic Energy Commission on 529 dental intraoral radiographic facilities have been used in order to define DRLs for digital and film imaging modalities, taking into account the region of the mouth to be imaged. Thus, different DRL values have been proposed for minimum (usually incisors), maximum (usually maxillary molars) and average exposure settings, both for film and digital imaging. The results have been compared with similar studies performed in Europe and the USA and are in line with the most recent ones.

The proliferation of illegitimate anti-malarial drugs and its use by patients is of primary concern to international and local drug regulatory agencies because such drugs are known to contribute to the development of the malaria-resistant parasites in humans. No data exist on quality of these drugs in the fishing village communities in Ghana although the villagers are likely users of such drugs. A pilot study on the quality of anti-malarial tablets in circulation during the major fishing season at a malarious fishing village located along the coast of Tema in southern Ghana was determined. Methods: Blisterpacks of anti-malarial tablets were randomly sampled. The International Pharmacopoeia and Global Pharma Health Fund Minilab protocols were used to assess the quality of anti-malarial tablets per blisterpacks allegedly manufactured by Guilin Pharmaceutical Co Ltd, China (GPCL) and Letap Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Ghana (LPL) and sold in chemical sales outlets at Kpone-on-Sea. Ferric chloride and cobaltous thiocyanate tests confirmed the presence of active ingredients in the tablets. A confirmatory test for the active ingredient was achieved with artesunate (ICRS1409) and amodiaquine (ICRS0209) reference standards. A high performance liquid chromatography analysis confirmed the amount of artesunate found in tablets. Results: Based on the International Pharmacopoeia acceptable range of 96/98 to 102% for genuine artesunate per tablet, 10% [relative standard deviation (RSD): 3.2%] of field-selected artesunate blisterpack per tablets manufactured by GPCL, and 50% (RSD: 5.1%) of a similar package per tablet by LPL, passed the titrimetric test. However, 100% (RSD: 2.2%) of amodiaquine blisterpack per tablet by GPCL were found to be within the International Pharmacopeia acceptable range of 90 to 110% for genuine amodiaquine in tablet, whilst 17% of a similar package per tablet by LPL failed spectrophotometric testing. Conclusion: Inadequate amounts of artesunate and amodiaquine detected in the tablets suggest that both pharmaceutical companies may not be following recommended drug formulation procedures, or the active pharmaceutical ingredients might have been degraded by improper storage conditions. Thus, drugs being sold at Kpone-on-Sea, Ghana may likely be classified as substandard drugs and not suitable for malaria treatment.

This is particularly true in Ghana where there is an increasing reliance on bottled water due to shortage of safe, fresh drinking water. Nuclear and conventional co-production of electricity and portable water has been identified as key solution to the perennial water shortages in coastal towns in Ghana . A reliable desalination cost date catering for site-specific condition in Ghana is required for policy makers, planners, consultants, process engineers, plant suppliers and researchers. This present paper is aims comparing the cost of co-production of power and portable water using reverse osmosis (RO) plant coupled with both nuclear and fossil power plant operating under different cycles using the desalination economic evaluation programme (DEEP4.0) developed by the international atomic energy agency (IAEA). The study concentrates on conditions of seawater in Accra , Ghana . Results show that co-production nuclear power plant operating on steam cycle can be the most economic among a number of power-water production options.

It describes how Bangladesh is progressing towards nuclear power. The major infrastructure issues about the way in which to implement the country's first nuclear power project have been identified and analysed. The domestic education and training infrastructure of the nuclear power sector of the country has been reviewed and it is regarded as the most critical challenge to commence the nuclear power programme in the country. A broad-based academic and research capability in nuclear science and engineering disciplines and the professional educational and training courses for different tiers of professionals and staff of the Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) operating organisation and nuclear regulatory authority needs to be strengthened for the sustainable development of the nuclear power sector as well as the economic operation of nuclear power facilities of the country. An approach to the manpower development for the national nuclear power sector has also been proposed.

Bangladesh made a knowledgeable decision regarding implementation of NPP. Accordingly, the country is committed to establish an independent regulatory body with appropriate resources and empowerment to regulate the safety and security of nuclear installations. A draft 'Bangladesh Atomic Energy Regulatory (BAER) Act' with input from the IAEA and vendor countries is already under consideration for approval of the government. The draft BAER Act establishes an independent 'Bangladesh Atomic Energy Regulatory Authority' for the regulation of nuclear safety, radiation protection, transportation and waste safety and the civil liability for nuclear damage. The important elements of the BAER Act have been analysed in this paper, and some critical issues are identified.

Since the last biennial EP exercise conducted on October 5, 2010, the licensee has conducted seven full-scale drills, which included activation of all of the licensee's emergency response facilities, and participation by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and local agencies. Section IV.F.2.b of 10 CFR part 50, Appendix E requires licensees at each site to conduct an exercise of onsite emergency plans biennially with full-participation by each offsite authority having a role under the plan.

N1 - Last updated - 2012-12-17 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: SOUTH TEXAS PROJECT, UNITS 1 AND 2, MATAGORDA COUNTY, TEXAS (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 1325327327; 15576 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the nuclear power plant operating licenses for South Texas Project (STP), Units 1 and 2 in Matagorda County, Texas is proposed to extend the licensed plant life for an additional 20 years in this 48th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996 on promulgation of rules for all license renewals. The final generic EIS identified 92 issues and reached conclusions relating to environmental impacts for 69 of these issues that apply to all plants. Neither the applicant, STP Nuclear Operating Company, nor staff at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) have identified new information for any of the 69 generic issues. Plant-specific review for the remaining 23 issues with regard to operations and refurbishment activities are addressed in this supplement. If the licenses are renewed, federal and state agencies and the owners of the plant would decide whether to continue plant operations based on factors such as the need for power. Without renewal, the licenses would expire on August 20, 2027 and December 15, 2028, respectively. The 12,220-acre STP site is located 70 miles south-southwest of Houston. The nuclear reactor for each unit is a Westinghouse pressurized water reactor, producing a reactor core rated thermal power of 3,853 megawatts-thermal. The nominal net electrical capacity is 1,250 megawatts-electric. The reactor core heats water, which is pumped to four steam generators where the heat boils the water on the shell-side into steam that is routed to the turbines. The steam turns the turbines, which are connected to the electrical generator. The Units 1 and 2 steam generators were replaced in 2008 and 2009, respectively, with new Westinghouse steam generators. The reactor, steam generators, and related systems are enclosed in a containment building comprised of a post-tensioned, reinforced concrete cylinder with a slab base and a hemispherical dome. A welded steel liner is attached to the inside face of the concrete shell to ensure a high degree of leak tightness. In addition, the four-footthick concrete walls serve as a radiation shield. STP uses a cooling pond-based heat-dissipation system that withdraws and discharges cooling water to the 7,000-acre main cooling reservoir (MCR). Water is intermittently drawn from the lower Colorado River to replace water lost in the MCR due to evaporation and seepage. Water is discharged from the MCR to the Colorado River in order to maintain water chemistry and quality within the MCR. The essential cooling pond (ECP) supplies water for safety-related systems. Three groundwater wells are the primary makeup to the 46-acre ECP. In addition to the proposed license renewal, this draft supplemental EIS considers replacement power alternatives and not renewing the license (No Action Alternative). Replacement power options considered include new nuclear generation, natural gas-fired combined-cycle generation, supercritical coal-fired generation, a combination alternative, and purchased power. The NRC's preliminary recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for STP Units 1 and 2 are not great enough to deny the option of license renewal for energy-planning decision makers. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the licenses would provide an option that allows for power generation capability beyond the term of the current nuclear power plant operating license to meet future system generating needs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Minimal entrainment and impingement of Colorado River aquatic organisms would continue, but operation of the STP cooling system does not appear to have noticeably altered populations of the species currently found in the river. Radiation doses from continued operations during the license renewal term are expected to continue at current levels and would remain below regulatory limits. Three transmission lines exceed the five milliampere criterion for preventing electric shock from induced currents, however the locations where the lines exceed the standard are remote and the applicant has considered potential mitigation measures to reduce or avoid adverse impacts from electric shock. LEGAL MANDATES: Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2001 et seq.), Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR, Part 54).

[...]compliance with the EP requirements in effect before the effective date of the EP Final Rule demonstrated reasonable assurance of adequate protection, and granting an extension of time to comply with portions of the EP Final Rule will not present an undue risk to public health or safety and is consistent with the common defense and security. Because PG&E is still evaluating the applicability of the Final Rule to HBPP, special circumstances are present in that the licensee reasonably needs more time to assess the impact of the rule. 4.0 Conclusion The NRC staff reviewed the licensee's submittals and concludes that the licensee has justified its request for an extension of the compliance date with regard to five specific requirements of 10 CFR 50.47, and Part 50, Appendix E until September 20, 2012.

Model comparison and parameter discrimination involve specific performance indicators selected to better understand subsurface contaminant transport to optimize groundwater monitoring networks (GMN). Three abstraction techniques were validated for GMN design: (1) using pedotransfer functions, (2) profile aggregation, and (3) limiting the input domain by ignoring the unsaturated zone. Data were collected in the tracer experiment at the USDA-ARS OPE3 integrated research site. A pulse of a potassium chloride solution was applied to a 13 m X 14 m irrigation plot, and chloride concentrations were measured in the groundwater at three sampling depths in 12 observations wells installed at distances of 7 m and 14 m from the irrigation plot. The spatial distribution of soil materials was obtained from cores taken at 0.2 m increments to the depth of 2 m during installation of the observation wells. Soil hydraulic conductivity values were obtained from the HYDRUS-3D calibration with chloride concentration time series measured in the observation wells, and soil water retention was estimated from pedotransfer functions. The model abstraction techniques were evaluated using HYDRUS-3D simulations performed for different hydrologic scenarios. These scenarios included three weather, two ground-water depth, and two groundwater slope scenarios, as well as two different locations of the contaminant release selected within the irrigation plot. The weather scenarios were based on 25%, 50% and 75% of the 10-year probability of mean annual precipitation. The monitoring locations for GMN were selected based on three performance indicators: the peak concentration (Cpeak), the time to the peak concentration (Tpeak) and total chemical flux (QC). The monitoring locations were selected based on (a) more frequent, and (b) more probable and persistent appearance of maximum or minimum values of the above performance indicators. Cpeak and QC appeared to be more reliable performance indicators compared to Tpeak. The profile aggregation method was found to be the only abstraction technique that generated a GMN differed from the network obtained using the calibrated HYDRUS-3D model based on Cpeak and QC performance indicators. The outcome of this study provides reasonable assurance that model abstraction techniques can be used to optimize monitoring network strategies, and can provide specific the information for the future data collection and abstraction efforts to optimize a GMN.

Given a soil of constant infiltrability I, which is the maximum amount of water that the soil can infiltrate, and a constant rainfall intensity R, runoff is observed wherever R is greater than I. The infiltration rate equals the infiltrability where runoff is produced, R otherwise. When ponding time, topography, and overall spatial and temporal variations of physical parameters, such as R and I, are neglected, the runoff equation remains simple. In this study, we consider soils of spatially variable infiltrability. As runoff can re-infiltrate on down-slope areas of higher infiltrabilities (runon process), the resulting process is highly non-linear. The stationary runoff equation is: Qn+1 = max (Qn + (R - In)*Delta x , 0) where Qn is the runoff arriving on pixel n of size Delta x [L2/T], R and In the rainfall intensity and infiltrability on that same pixel [L/T]. The non-linearity is due to the dependence of infiltration on R and Qn, that is runon. This re-infiltration process generates patterns of runoff along the slope, patterns that organise and connect differently to each other depending on the rainfall intensity and the nature of the soil heterogeneity. In order to characterize the runoff patterns and their connectivity, we use the connectivity function defined by Allard (1993) in Geostatistics. Our aim is to assess, in a stochastic framework, the runoff organization on 1D and 2D slopes with random infiltrabilities (log-normal, exponential and bimodal distributions) by means of numerical simulations. Firstly, we show how runoff is produced and organized in patterns along a 2D slope according to the infiltrability distribution. We specifically illustrate and discuss the link between the statistical nature of the infiltrability and that of the flow-rate, with a special focus on the relations between the connectivities of both fields: the structural connectivity (infiltrability patterns) and the functional connectivity (runoff patterns). In a second step, we demonstrate how, on a 1D geometry defined by different uncorrelated infiltrability distributions, these interactions between infiltrability and resulting runoff field can be quantified by the Queueing Theory.

Furthermore, among the 104 commercial nuclear power plants (NPPs) already licensed to operate in the US, 96 are located in the CEUS. While there are many considerations in siting commercial NPPs, the perceived lower seismic hazard in the CEUS compared to the Western United States is one of the reasons why the majority of operating and potential future nuclear reactors are located in the CEUS. However, one important criterion used in the licensing and safe operation of a nuclear power plant is its seismic design basis, which establishes the plant's ability to withstand ground motions produced by moderate- to large-sized earthquakes without suffering any damage to its critical safety related structures, systems, and components. The seismic design basis for a NPP is site specific and determined using up-to-date knowledge and information about seismic sources surrounding the site and seismic wave propagation characteristics. Therefore, an in-depth understanding of the processes generating earthquakes (tectonic or man-made) and the seismic wave propagation characteristics in the CEUS is crucial. The U.S. NRC's seismic review process for evaluating new reactor siting applications heavily relies upon up-to-date scientific knowledge of seismic sources within at least 320 km of a proposed site. However, the availability of up-to-date knowledge and information about potential seismic sources in low-seismicity regions is limited and relevant data are sparse. Recently, the NRC participated in a joint effort to develop new seismic source models to be used in the CEUS seismic hazard studies for nuclear facilities. In addition, efforts are underway to better understand the seismic potential of the Eastern Tennessee Seismic Zone. While very large and successful scientific experiments such as EarthScope, provide great opportunities to gather new data to further enhance our current understanding of the seismicity and tectonics of the CEUS region, there is also a heightened need for continuation of small-scale scientific missions geared toward understanding of seismic sources in low-seismicity regions. Although such regions are not high-priority areas of research and they do not usually receive the needed attention of funding agencies and the larger scientific community, extensive studies in these areas are still needed. Creating awareness and interest of the needs for seismic studies in such regions is a critical issue from a regulatory perspective. The U.S. NRC's open government philosophy based processes provide excellent opportunities for the involvement of research and educational communities in the regulatory processes related to seismic hazards in the US. This presentation will discuss the available processes for public participation in the US NRC new reactor licensing decisions and highlight some key research areas that will benefit seismic hazard estimations in the CEUS.

These events were very shallow ( approximately 5-10 km), which could explain the large ground-motions amplitude observed in the fault area. On the opposite, on the last 25th and 27th January other two deeper moderate earthquakes (either with Mw 4.9) occurred in the same area (south of Parma). These two events made very few damages and no victims, but have been felt also far from the source: their focal depths (33 and 65 km respectively) seem to play a huge role. Indeed, in this sector of the Padano-Emiliana plain, earthquakes are mainly generated by systems of blind thrust faults extending to depths of 20-25 km, even if recent seismicity studies proposed that a deeper subducting slab of Adriatic lithosphere could occur as well in this area. Thus, a trustable estimation of depths is needed in order to better understand this complex tectonic process. Based on teleseismic dataset, we have used coherent depth phases detected on CTBTO arrays (comprehensive-test-ban treaty-organization), using cepstral methods as well as focal mechanism estimations from genetic algorithm inversions to constrain the depths of all recent events above magnitude 3.8 in this area. The use of the teleseismic records gives the opportunity to reduce uncertainties due to complex crustal propagations during regional depth estimations. Moreover, pMP reflexions, observable on these teleseismic records, seem to prove that some events occurred below the Moho discontinuity, strenghthening the hypothesis of an active slab for this area. The regional North Italy dataset collected in the last years by the RAIS strong-motion network (INGV) have been studied as well. The joint inversions have been performed to increase the resolution of the depth estimations by mixing teleseismic and regional data. At the end we have built a new database of accurate earthquake depths, allowing to investigate the influence of this parameter on the seismic properties. Source spectra and stress drops have been estimated and their correlation with depth has been pointed out. Hence, in the global aim to predict ground motions, it seems that depth should be taken into account in a more systematic way, as new seismic equipments (for instance CTBTO arrays) afford now better resolution for this crucial parameter.

The North Anna NPP is operated by the Virginia Electric and Power Company (VEPCO) and has two pressurized water reactors (PWR) units that began operation in 1978 and 1980, respectively. Following the earthquake, both units were safely shutdown. The strong-motion records were processed to get velocity, displacement, Fourier and 5% damped response spectra. The basemat record demonstrated relatively high amplitudes of acceleration of 0.26 g and velocity of 13.8 cm/sec with a relatively short duration of strong motion of 2-3 sec. Recorded 5% damped Response Spectra exceed Design Basis Earthquake for the existing Units 1 and 2, while comprehensive plant inspections performed by VEPCO and U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission have concluded that the damage to the plant was minimal not affecting any structures and equipment significant to plant operation. This can be explained in part by short duration of the earthquake ground motion at the plant. The North Anna NPP did not have free-field strong motion instrumentation at the time of the earthquake. Since the containment is founded on rock there is a tendency to consider basemat record as an approximation of the free-field recording. However, comparisons of deck and basemat records demonstrate that the basemat recording is also affected by structural resonance frequencies higher than 3 Hz. Structural resonances in the frequency range of 3-4 Hz can at least partially explain significant exceedance of observed motions relative to ground motion calculated using ground motion prediction equations.

AN - 1323793781; 15565 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a new source and byproduct material license for the construction, operation, aquifer restoration, and decommissioning of an in-situ leach uranium recovery (ISR) facility in Custer and Fall River Counties, South Dakota is proposed. Powertech (USA), Inc. submitted a license application in August 2009 for the Dewey-Burdock ISR Project, which would be located in the Nebraska-South Dakota-Wyoming Uranium Milling Region, one of four specified in the final generic EIS of June 2009 for In-Situ Leach Uranium Milling Facilities. The 10,580-acre project site is located 13 miles north-northwest of the city of Edgemont, 40 miles west of the city of Hot Springs, and 50 miles southwest of the city of Custer. Approximately 10,340 acres of land is privately owned, and the remaining 240 acres of surface rights are public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management. The subsurface mineral rights are owned by various private entities and federally reserved by the U.S. Government. The Dewey-Burdock ISR Project would consist of processing facilities and sequentially developed wellfields in two contiguous areas: the Burdock area and the Dewey area. Facilities would include: a central processing plant in the Burdock area and a satellite facility in the Dewey area; surface impoundments; wellfields and their associated infrastructure; Class V deep injection wells and/or land application areas for disposal of liquid gas wastes; and access roads. Extraction is proposed at 10 wellfields in the Burdock area and at four wellfields in the Dewey area. Injection wells would be used to introduce lixiviant into the uranium mineralization; production wells would be used to extract uranium-bearing solutions; and monitoring wells would be used to identify and assess impacts of ongoing operations and detect groundwater excursions. The Burdock central plant would fully process the uranium-bearing solution and uranium-loaded resin from the Dewey satellite facility. The recovered uranium would be processed, dried into yellowcake, packaged into 55-gallon steel drums, and trucked offsite to a licensed conversion facility. Powertech anticipates that production activities in the initial wellfields would commence two years after construction begins and wellfield operations would continue for eight years. Aquifer restoration would begin two years after production activities commence and would continue for nine years. After the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) determines the production area is restored, Powertech would implement a groundwater stability monitoring program for a minimum of 12 months. In addition to the proposed action, this draft supplemental EIS evaluates a No Action Alternative. The preliminary NRC staff recommendation is that a source and byproduct material license for the proposed action be issued as requested, unless safety issues mandate otherwise. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would authorize commercial-scale ISR uranium recovery on public lands with mitigation measures to ensure public safety and protection of environmental resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: All project phases would produce intermittent fugitive dust emissions. Construction would disturb 243 acres if deep well injection is used to dispose of treated wastewater, or 1,398 acres if land application or a combination of deep well injection and land application is used to dispose of treated wastewater. Habitat loss, displacement of wildlife, and mortality due to encounters with vehicles or heavy equipment would occur, though wildlife species would likely disperse from the area once construction commences. Archaeological and historic sites may be disturbed. Dewey Road would experience a sixteenfold increase in daily vehicle traffic during construction and a fivefold increase in daily vehicle traffic during operations. Local landfill capacity may be insufficient to accommodate all decommissioning nonhazardous solid waste. The project would contribute to visibility impacts at Wind Cave National Park, but the impact magnitude is expected to be minimal. LEGAL MANDATES: Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2001 et seq.), Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR, Part 54).

Summer Nuclear Station (VCSNS) site, South Carolina, by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) AN - 1447101841; 2013-084607 AB - Requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations and guidance in NRC regulatory guides specify the importance of geologic characterization of sites for new nuclear power facilities. During the NRC's regulatory process, started in March 2008 and leading to licensing of the VCSNS site for construction and operation of two Westinghouse AP1000 units in March 2012, NRC geologists reviewed parts of the VCSNS Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) related to basic geologic and seismic information and surface faulting; conducted site audits and Quality Assurance (QA) inspections to examine geologic features in the field; prepared a Final Safety Evaluation Report (FSER) presenting review and audit results; briefed the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safety regarding those results; and provided sworn testimony in mandatory public hearings to defend conclusions about site suitability based on review, audit, and inspection results. NRC geologists also identified a geologic mapping License Condition as the responsibility of the VCSNS licensee in the FSER, which required detailed geologic mapping of the excavation for the Unit 3 nuclear island structure; evaluation of geologic features discovered in excavations for safety-related structures other than the nuclear island; and notification of the Office of New Reactors once the excavations were ready for NRC staff to examine. The licensee committed to conducting the geologic mapping in the FSAR and mapped rock units, tectonic structures, and geologic features in the walls and floors of Unit 3 excavations for safety-related structures in detail. During the site audits and QA inspections, NRC geologists reviewed the geologic maps and associated data prepared to address the License Condition; examined the mapped tectonic structures, geologic features, and foundation bedrock units in the field; and evaluated geometry and field relationships of tectonic structures, including data constraining time of development, lithologies, and relationships between site-specific and regional tectonic structures. Based on these extensive activities, NRC geologists assessed the potential for tectonic and non-tectonic surface deformation at the VCSNS site and independently verified that no capable (i.e., Quaternary) tectonic structures occur that may adversely affect site suitability.

Recommendation 2.1 (R2.1) requires a licensee to reevaluate seismic hazards based on present-day NRC requirements and guidance. To address R2.1, licensees in the Western US (WUS) are performing Senior Seismic Hazard Analysis Committee (SSHAC) Level 3 analyses. The SSHAC process should incorporate any new pertinent geologic data that are available in addition to collection of new geologic data. Central and Eastern US (CEUS) licensees will reevaluate the seismic hazard using the regional SSHAC-based CEUS seismic source characterization model. CEUS licensees are not required to collect or incorporate new geologic data. All licensees will calculate ground motion response spectra to compare to the existing safe shutdown earthquake ground motion for their plants. Based on results of this comparison, further risk assessments using either seismic margins analysis or probabilistic risk assessment may be needed. The NRC is working with industry to develop guidance for certain screening, prioritization and implementation issues related to seismic reevaluations and will endorse industry guidance or issue its own, as necessary. Recommendation 2.2 (R2.2) is a proposed rulemaking requiring licensees to reevaluate new and significant external hazard data every 10 years and determine how the data should be used. The NRC is also reviewing background information and assessing international experiences to support the technical basis for this rulemaking. Recommendation 2.3 (R2.3) requires licensees to perform seismic walkdowns of their plants. The NRC worked in cooperation with industry to develop walkdown procedures that will address equipment anchorages, the potential for adverse equipment interactions during an earthquake, and assess recent changes or updates to the facilities. The NRC will use the results of R2.1 and R2.3 to both inform the R2.2 rulemaking and determine whether the design basis hazards or protection features need to be updated to ensure adequate protection against the reevaluated hazards.

Although largely unrecognized in the planetary community, terrestrial inflated sheet flows also display morphologies that share many commonalities with lava plains on Mars. The McCartys lava flow field is among the youngest ( approximately 3000 yrs) basaltic flows in the continental United States. The southwest sections of the flow displays smooth, flat-topped plateaus with irregularly shaped pits and hummocky inter-plateau units that form a polygonal surface. Plateaus are typically elongate in map view, up to 20 m high and display lineations within the glassy crust. Lineated surfaces occasionally display small < 1 m diameter lava coils. Lineations are generally straight and parallel each other, sometimes for over 100 meters. The boundaries between plateaus and depressions are also lineated and tilted to angles sometimes approaching vertical. Plateau-parallel cracks, sometimes containing squeeze-ups, mark the boundary between tilted crust and plateau. Some plateau depressions display level floors with hummocky surfaces, while some are bowl shaped with floors covered in broken lava slabs. The lower walls of pits sometimes display lateral, sagged lava wedges. Infrequently, pit floors display the upper portion of a tumulus from an older flow. In some places the surface crust has been disrupted forming a slabby texture. Slabs are typically on the scale of a meter or less across and no less than 7-10 cm thick. The slabs preserve the lineated textures of the undisturbed plateau crust. It appears that this style of terrain represents the emplacement of an extensive sheet that experiences inflation episodes within preferred regions where lateral spreading of the sheet is inhibited, thereby forming plateaus. Rough surfaces represent inflation-related disruption of pahoehoe lava and not a'a lava. Depressions are often the result of non-inflation and can be clearly identified by lateral squeeze-outs along the pit walls that form when the rising crust exposes the still liquid core of the sheet. The plains of Tharsis and Elysium, Mars, display many analogous features.

Cosmogenic and radiocarbon methods both give an age of approximately 3000 yr for the McCartys flow (Laughlin et al., 1994). Flows that have undergone inflation sometimes have margins that display a 'terraced' topographic expression, with each successive level at approximately one-half the thickness of the flow section from which it emanates. At the McCartys lava flow, we investigated several terraced margins where two or three distinct elevation levels occur. We used Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) data to obtain precision topographic profiles across terraced margins. Terraces are typically 0.4 to 0.6 of the thickness of the inflated flow section from which they originate; if a second terrace level is present, its surface level is similarly about half the thickness of the source terrace. We postulate that the terraces represent discreet outbreaks from the inflated flow. At only one location were we able to identify the specific source of a terrace outbreak; a vertical fracture in the primary flow margin became a 'local vent' for a terrace extending approximately 200 by 80 meters from the breakout. The source fracture is only approximately 30 cm wide; the terrace material attained a level that is quite consistent over the entire terrace. A basaltic toe emanating from the margin of the terrace has approximately the same height relationship to the terrace as the terrace to the main flow, but flow into the toe ceased before more than a single digitate flow was produced. Field observations of terraces provide important constraints for interpreting similar features on Mars as a result of inflation.

Because the term "license", as defined in 10 CFR 2.4, includes a construction permit, and because the Administrative Procedure Act's definition of the term "license", in 5 U.S.C. 551(8), includes any agency approval or other form of permission, the NRC finds that the 10 CFR 70.36 requirements are applicable here. Petitions for leave to intervene and requests for hearing, and motions for leave to file new or amended contentions that are filed after the deadline in 10 CFR 2.309(b) will not be entertained absent a determination by the presiding officer that the filing demonstrates good cause by satisfying the following three factors in 10 CFR 2.309(c)(1): (i) The information upon which the filing is based was not previously available; (ii) the information upon which the filing is based is materially different from information previously available; and (iii) the filing has been submitted in a timely fashion based on the availability of the subsequent information A State, local governmental body, Federally-recognized Indian Tribe, or agency thereof may submit a petition to the Commission to participate as a party under 10 CFR 2.309(h)(1) and (2).

However, the southern part of the country is seismically active. The continental and coastal area of southeast Ghana is dominated by the Akwapim fault zone and coastal boundary fault. The Akwapim fault zone represents overthrusts of Neoproterozoic age, but there are also indications of recent faulting on some sections of the fault zone. The coastal boundary fault commenced to become tectonically active in Jurassic times and is probably still active. The two fault systems intersect some tens of kilometers to the southwest of Accra and it is at this intersection where most of the seismic activity has been observed. Historical documents describing damaging earthquakes in Ghana date as far back as 1615. The two major destructive earthquakes which struck Southern Ghana occurred close to the capital city Accra in 1862 (intensity IX) and 1939 (intensity VIII). The surveillance of the seismic activity of Southern Ghana with seismometers has been discontinuous with irregular long periods of disruption. All known earthquakes from 1615 to 2003, based on historical documents and instrumental recordings are collected in a data catalogue and compiled in a computer readable format. Based on macroseismic maps and detailed descriptions of the damages, the epicentral intensity of some strong events as well as the radii of different isoseismals could be newly estimated. The catalogue can be the basis for a deterministic seismic hazard assessment for Southern Ghana to develop a building code for this region. Abstract Copyright (2012) Elsevier, B.V.

The wording of the regulations in 10 CFR 50.46 and Appendix K is not directly applicable to Optimized ZIRLOTM, even though the evaluations above show that the intent of the regulation is met. [...]since the underlying purposes of 10 CFR 50.46 and Appendix K are achieved through the use of Optimized ZIRLOTM fuel rod cladding material, the special circumstances required by 10 CFR 50.12(a)(2)(ii) for the granting of an exemption exist. 4.0 Conclusion Accordingly, the Commission has determined that, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, the exemption is authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety, and is consistent with the common defense and security.

Since this substantially reduces the energy flow, it does not always give conservative results. [...]a preliminary assessment using the subdivided volume feature in the GOTHIC computer code shows that the structural limits on the block wall between the ESF switchgear rooms would be substantially exceeded. * There has been no structured and detailed review of the licensing requirements for HELB.

The lithofacies of matrix supported conglomerate, trough cross bedded conglomerate, massive sandstone, trough cross bedded sandstone, planar cross bedded sandstone, ripple cross laminated sandstone-siltstone, flaser laminated sandstone-shale, lenticular laminated sandstone-siltstone-shale, parallel laminated sandstone-siltstone, wavy laminated shale, parallel laminated blue shale, and mudstone are delineated within this formation. Based on the grain size, sedimentary structures, water depth and genesis of individual facies, facies are grouped into three types of facies associations like (i) coarse-grained conglomerate facies association in relation to tractive current deposits of alluvial fan set up at the base of litho-succession (FAC), (ii) medium to fine-grained sandstone-siltstone-mudstone facies association or facies association in relation to strong tide (FAT) characterizing the middle part of litho-succession, (iii) very fine-grained sandstone-siltstone-mudstone facies association in relation to less frequent weak tide or heterolithic facies association (FAHL) characterizing upper part of litho-succession and shallow marine facies association (FASM) composing the uppermost litho-succession. Presence of gluconite indicates that the depositional environment was shallow to deep marine. The dominant paleoflow direction during the deposition of Dupi Tila Formation was toward southeast to southwestern direction. The rivers were of braided type at the piedmont alluvial depositional set up at the lower part, which later changed to estuarine-tidal flat type environmental set up in the middle part to upper part and paleo-environment was shallow marine in the uppermost part.

The analyses were carried out by double focussing sector field inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) in order to avoid errors due to polyatomic interferences. Levels of toxic elements (As, Cd, Pb) were generally below the WHO permissible levels in dairy products. Concentrations of most elements were considerably affected by the type of cheese, the geographical site and the season of sampling.

Genotypes in a Coastal Savannah Environment AN - 1464509801; 18543730 AB - A field experiment was carried out in a coastal savannah agro-ecological zone of Ghana to assess the dynamics of stored soil water and actual evapotranspiration (AET) of three maize genotypes (Obatanpa, Mamaba, and Golden Crystal) grown under rainfed conditions. Access tubes were installed to a depth of 120 cm for soil water content monitoring using a neutron probe meter. The soil water balance model of plant root zone was used to estimate AET at different crop growth stages. On average, the rate of AET for Obatanpa, Mamaba, and Golden Crystal maize genotypes were estimated as 4.32, 4.46, and 3.72 mm.day-1, respectively, for the major cropping season as against corresponding values of 3.88, 4.00 and 3.72 mm day-1 for the minor cropping season. Mamaba had higher values of AET from 42 DAE (days after emergence) to 84 DAE during the minor cropping season while it had low AET values during the major cropping season. The positive balance in stored soil water in the root zone of Obatanpa was the highest from 42 DAE to 84 DAE followed by Mamaba and Golden Crystal during the major cropping season. Mamaba, on the other hand, had the highest AET from 70 DAE to 84 DAE. Obatanpa used 55.6% of stored soil water for AET, which was the highest among the maize genotypes during the major cropping season. Golden Crystal and Mamaba followed with 53.3% and 51.5%. For the minor cropping season, 48.5% of stored soil water was used by Mamaba for AET, followed by Obatanpa, (46.4%) and Golden Crystal (43.2%). A strong positive significant (p less than or equal to 0.05) linear correlation existed between AET and precipitation with the coefficient of determination (R2) being 69.2 for Obatanpa, 88.5 for Mamaba and 82.8 for Golden Crystal for the major cropping season. Higher R2 values (98.0, for Obatanpa, 94.1 for Mamaba and 98.9 for Golden Crystal) were, however, obtained for the minor cropping season. Additionally, a strong linear relationship was found between AET and precipitation, suggesting the need to formulate strategies for enhancing effective use of precipitation in sustained rainfed maize production.

The concrete used for ceiling construction in this region has very good shielding characteristics against neutrons similar to that used in radiation shielding and nuclear reactors. The linear (mass) attenuation coefficient [L(M)AC] for concrete was found to be 0.097cm-1(0.046 cm2g-1), while for the blocks used to assess the house walls it was found to be 0.028cm-1. Blocks need to be filled with the cement paste used for assessing the same walls in order to have an acceptable LAC against neutrons.

[...]since the underlying purposes of 10 CFR 50.46 and Appendix K are achieved through the use of Optimized ZIRLO TM fuel rod cladding material, the special circumstances required by 10 CFR 50.12(a)(2)(ii) for the granting of an exemption from certain requirements of 10 CFR 50.46 and Appendix K exist. 4.0 Conclusion Accordingly, the Commission has determined that, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, the exemption is authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety, and is consistent with the common defense and security. [...]special circumstances are present. [...]the Commission hereby grants Dominion an exemption from certain requirements of 10 CFR 50.46 and Appendix K to 10 CFR part 50, to allow the use of Optimized ZIRLO TM fuel rod cladding material, for MPS3.

The parameters like effect of radiation dose and concentration of AAc were studied. The properties such as gel content, swelling behavior and thermal stability were also evaluated. The result indicated that gel content of hydrogel increased with increased radiation dose and it reached a maximum value at 25 kGy radiation dose. Gel content also increased with increased concentration of AAc in the feed solution. Moreover, swelling ratio decreased with increased radiation dose, but increased with increased concentration of AAc. Water absorption of hydrogel increased from similar to 1400 to similar to 3800% for the range of AAc concentration 0 to 1.5% at 25 kGy. It was also observed that the melting temperature of hydrogel depended on concentration of AAc. The fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy investigation of hydrogel was carried out. The prepared hydrogel was applied to adsorb dye from aqueous medium.

Because the proposed change to replace the phrase "Turbine Impulse Pressure, P-13" with "Turbine Inlet Pressure, P-13" in Table 3.3.1-1, Function 16(e), does not involve a physical or design change to the P-13 function, no new accident causal mechanisms are created as a result of the requested changes which would result in the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. The design function of the instrument loops has not changed. [...]the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in the margin of safety. The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 50.92(c) are satisfied. [...]the NRC staff proposes to determine that the amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration.

Regarding aggressiveness criteria, percentage infection, latent period, sporulation density and dwarfing, on two sunflower inbred lines showing different levels of non-race specific resistance resistance FU and BT, there were significant differences in aggressiveness for P. halstedii isolates. The index of aggressiveness varied between 9.4 and 31.4. The inbred line BT, rather susceptible in the field, showed a higher percentage infection, a higher sporulation density, a shorter latent period and less reduced hypocotyl length than inbred line FU, which showed a greater resistance in the field. Percentage infection on FU was 1.4% less than BT, latent period on BT was 12.4% less than FU, sporulation density on FU was 22.3% less than BT and reduced hypocotyl length on BT was 15.3% less than FU. Consequently, it seems that the criteria as latent period, sporulation density and reduction of hypocotyl length could be used to measure non-race specific resistance in sunflower to P. halstedii under controlled conditions.

Therefore, vertical resistance has been used intensively, but with the appearance of many races since 2000, research on more durable resistance has been undertaken. In this review, we present new results concerning the evolution of pathogenicity under artificial conditions in order to underline a mixture model assuming durable resistance against Plasmopara halstedii. Examples of host-parasite interactions including the influence of plant mixture against pathogens and durable resistance are presented to integrate in our couple P. halstedii/Helianthus annuus.

AN - 1027682136; 22544068 AB - Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) was proposed for untreatable colorectal liver metastases. The present study evaluates tumor control and potential radiotoxicity of BNCT in an experimental model of liver metastasis. BDIX rats were inoculated with syngeneic colon cancer cells DHD/K12/TRb. Tumor-bearing animals were divided into three groups: BPA-BNCT, boronophenylalanine (BPA) + neutron irradiation; Beam only, neutron irradiation; Sham, matched manipulation. The total absorbed dose administered with BPA-BNCT was 13 ± 3 Gy in tumor and 9 ± 2 Gy in healthy liver. Three weeks post-treatment, the tumor surface area post-treatment/pre-treatment ratio was 0.46 ± 0.20 for BPA-BNCT, 2.7 ± 1.8 for Beam only and 4.5 ± 3.1 for Sham. The pre-treatment tumor nodule mass of 48 ± 19 mg fell significantly to 19 ± 16 mg for BPA-BNCT, but rose significantly to 140 ± 106 mg for Beam only and to 346 ± 302 mg for Sham. For both end points, the differences between the BPA-BNCT group and each of the other groups were statistically significant (ANOVA). No clinical, macroscopic or histological normal liver radiotoxicity was observed. It is concluded that BPA-BNCT induced a significant remission of experimental colorectal tumor nodules in liver with no contributory liver toxicity.

The NRC staff has developed draft LR-ISG-2012-01 to: (a) Revise the definition of "wall thinning" to include erosion mechanisms; (b) revise the definition of "flow-accelerated corrosion" and "erosion" to align them with the definitions commonly used in industry; (c) allow applicants that have identified wall thinning due to erosion mechanisms to monitor wall thinning caused by erosion mechanisms to be included in the aging management program for flow-accelerated corrosion by (i) ensuring extent of condition reviews determine if other components are susceptible to similar degradation, and (ii) verifying that corrective actions have either eliminated the erosion mechanism precluding the need for ongoing aging management activities or included periodic wall thickness measurements in an aging management program; and (d) make miscellaneous and editorial changes.

AN - 1124734947; 15412 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the operating licenses for the Indian Point Nuclear Generating Station, Units 2 and 3, located in the village of Buchanan in upper Westchester County, New York is proposed. On April 23, 2007, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to issue renewed licenses for additional 20-year periods. If the operating license is not renewed, the units would be shut down on or before expiration dates for the current licenses, which are September 28, 2013, and December 12, 2015 for Units 2 and 3, respectively. The power station is located within a 239-acre site on the east bank of the Hudson River at river mile 43 about 24 miles north of New York City. Both units employ pressurized water reactors and four-loop nuclear steam supply systems. Each loop contains a reactor coolant pump and a steam generator. The reactor coolant system transfers the heat generated in the reactor core to the steam generators, which produce steam to drive turbine generators. Unit 2 is currently licensed to operate at a core power of 3,216 megawatts (MW) thermal which results in a turbine generator output of 1,078 MW electric. Unit 3 is currently licensed to operate at 3,216 MW thermal which results in a turbine generator output of 1,080 MW electric. Primary and secondary cooling is provided by a once-through cooling water system that withdraws water from the Hudson River via two shoreline intake structures. After moving through the condensers, cooling water is discharged to the river through a canal via six 96-inch-diameter pipes. The facility uses liquid, gaseous, and solid radioactive waste management systems to collect and process wastes that are byproducts of operations. Two 345-kilovolt transmission lines, extending a total of 4,000 feet, connect the units to the regional power grid. Planned refurbishment at Indian Point includes replacement of reactor vessel heads and control rod drive mechanisms. This supplement to the final supplemental EIS of December 2010 includes corrections to impingement and entrainment data, revised conclusions regarding thermal impacts based on newly available thermal plume studies, and an update of the status of the NRCs consultation under the Endangered Species Act with the National Marine Fisheries Service regarding the shortnose sturgeon and Atlantic sturgeon. POSITIVE IMPACTS: License renewal would allow the applicant to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers and the plant site would continue to provide a number of diverse wildlife habitat types. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Operation of the units would continue to withdraw process water from the Hudson River and deliver makeup water back to the river with adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems. Overall effects from entrainment and impingement are likely to be moderate, and impacts from heat shock, including impacts to shortnose sturgeon, are likely to be small. LEGAL MANDATES: Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2001 et seq.), Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR, Part 54).

Aggressiveness criteria were analysed in one sunflower inbred line showing a high level of quantitative resistance. Genetic relationships were detected between the single zoosporangium isolates using 12 expressed sequence tags (EST)-derived markers. Analysis of the five single zoosporangium isolates for P. halstedii isolates showed variability within pathogen isolates for all aggressiveness criteria, but not for all pathogen isolates. Isolates of races 100 and 3xx were characterised with shorter latent period and higher sporulation density than the isolate of races 7xx. All pathogen isolates showed high percentage infection values and caused a large reduction in seedling size except for one isolate involved in dwarfing. There was no relation between zoosporangia form or size and race virulence profiles or aggressiveness criteria. There was no intra-genetic variation for all pathogen isolates, but it was observed an important genetic variation between single zoosporangium isolates of all races. No correlation was detected between pathogenicity traits and EST genotypes.

The rule making was issued in response to two incidents that resulted in excessive contamination and radiation exposures from improperly packaged radioactive material. Since these requirements were new to the transportation community, the AEC developed RG 7.3 to provide licensees with guidance and describe a method for meeting the new requirements that the NRC staff found acceptable.

Conversely, the nuclear power industry has used a prospective peer-to-peer (P2P) assessment process grounded in open information exchange and cooperative organizational learning to realize substantial and sustainable improvements in safety. In comparing approaches, it is evident that health care's sluggish progress stems from weaknesses in hazard identification and mitigation and in organizational learning.

AN - 1009529076; 22464933 AB - Neutron interactions with beryllium lead to formation of (3)H and strong neutron absorbers (3)He and (6)Li in the reflector (so called beryllium poisoning). After the reactor shutdown, the concentration of (3)He increases in time due to tritium decay. This paper illustrates the impact of poisoning accumulation in the beryllium reflectors on reactivity for the Syrian MNSR research reactor. The prediction of (6)Li and (3)He poison concentrations, initiated by the 9Be(n,α) reaction, in the beryllium reflectors of the MNSR was also presented. The results were based on MCNP Monte Carlo calculations and solutions to the differential equations which describe the time dependent poison concentrations as a function of reactor operation time and shutdown periods. The whole reactor history was taken into account to predict reliable values of parasitic isotope concentrations. It was found that the (3)He and (6)Li accumulations in the beryllium reflectors during the actual working history decreased the excess reactivity by about 28%. While, the effect became more significant at the reactor life's end and the reactor became subcritical after 25,000 h operation. The results contained in this paper could be used in assess the safety analysis of the MNSR reactor.

[...]by storing the radiographic exposure device at the Elk Street location, Mr. Chaisson engaged in deliberate misconduct that caused TGR, at the time an NRC licensee, to be in violation of License Condition 11 of its NRC Radioactive Material License, which required TGR to limit the storage of radioactive material approved on the license to temporary job sites in NRC jurisdiction.

The Commission has determined that using newer models to calculate internal doses for those individuals occupationally monitored by the licensee will provide a more accurate and precise assessment of the dose of the internal organs of the workers. Since protective measures are based on hazard, which is proportional to dose, the NRC staff has determined that Honeywell would be able to refocus ALARA practices, particularly internal exposure control and protection, to concentrate on protection based on the actual hazard.

AN - 1030201681; 15332 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of combined operating licenses for the construction and operation of two new nuclear power reactor units at the Levy Nuclear Plant (LNP) site in Levy County, Florida is proposed. Progress Energy Florida, Inc. submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on July 28, 2008 for the proposed LNP Units 1 and 2 which would be located on a greenfield site located 7.9 miles east of the Gulf Of Mexico and 30.1 miles west of Ocala. The site is also 9.6 miles from the Crystal River Energy Complex (CREC), an energy facility owned by Progress Energy Florida. The applicant's proposal is to build and operate two Westinghouse AP1000 reactor steam electric generating systems. Each reactor would connect to two steam generators that transfer heat from the reactor core, converting feed water to steam that drives high-pressure and low-pressure turbines, thereby creating electricity. The AP1000 design has a thermal power rating of 3,415 megawatts (MW) thermal, with a design gross-electrical output of 1,200 MW electrical. Each reactor unit would be supported by a multicell mechanical draft cooling tower that is approximately 1,000 feet long and 56 feet high. Makeup water would be provided to the plant from the Cross Florida Barge Canal through a cooling-water intake structure located on the north side of the canal and south of the LNP site. No new discharge structure is proposed for LNP Units 1 and 2. A portion of the makeup water would be transported via pipeline from the LNP site to the CREC site and released into the existing discharge canal and ultimately into the Gulf Of Mexico. The remaining portion of LNP makeup water would be released into the atmosphere via evaporative cooling through the mechanical draft cooling towers. Access to the LNP site would be provided by two roads approaching from U.S. Highway 19. Solid waste and radioactive waste would leave the site via roadways. Liquid, gaseous, and solid radioactive waste-management systems would collect the radioactive byproducts of operating the proposed units. Four new 500-kilovolt (kV) transmission lines and two new substations are proposed. Two of the four lines would connect to the proposed Citrus substation, one would connect to the proposed Central Florida South substation, and one would connect to the CREC 500-kV switchyard. Approximately 82 miles of transmission-line corridors would be needed to make these connections. The transmission-line corridors would use existing high-voltage transmission-line corridors and other existing linear corridors and major roads to the maximum extent practicable. Additional 230-kV transmission lines from the new substations would be constructed to distribute power. Construction on each unit would extend for about 3.5 to 4.5 years and peak employment of 3,440 workers is anticipated in 2018. Unit 1 is expected to begin commercial operation in the second quarter of 2021 or later and Unit 2 to begin commercial operation in the fourth quarter of 2022 or later. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers energy source alternatives, alternative reactor sites, system design alternatives, and onsite alternatives to reduce impacts on natural and cultural resources. The recommendation of NRC staff is that the operating licenses be issued as proposed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The LNP would help meet growing demand by providing additional baseload electrical generation capacity within the Progress Energy Florida service area, including Orlando and St. Petersburg. Tax revenue would benefit Levy County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Permanent habitat losses would total 627 acres on the LNP site and 311 acres for the associated offsite facilities. Vegetation clearing for the transmission lines would impact an estimated 632 acres. Permanent impacts to an estimated 668 acres of wetlands would be mitigated. Hydrologic alterations at or near the site would include: dredging for the intake structure, barge slip, and discharge pipeline; altering the surface topography; changes to runoff and infiltration characteristics; dewatering the excavations for the nuclear island and intake structure; and groundwater withdrawal to supply water. The proposed transmission corridors could impact habitat for wood stork, red-cockaded woodpecker, and Florida scrub jay. Increased demand would stress community public services including education, police, emergency services, fire protection, and transportation.

An attempt was made to study the radioactive data in two types of Sudanese phosphate deposits; Kurun and Uro phosphate, using several multivariate statistical methods. Pearson correlation coefficient revealed that a U-238 distribution in Kurun phosphate is controlled by the variation of K-40 concentration, whereas in Uro phosphate it is controlled by the variation of U-235 and U-234 concentration. Histograms and normal Q-Q plots clearly show that the radioactive variables did not follow a normal distribution. This non-normality feature observed may be attributed to complicating influence of geological factors. The principal components analysis (PCA) gives a model of five components for representing the acquired data from Kurun phosphate, where 89.5% of the total variance is explained. A model of four components was sufficient to represent the acquired data from Uro phosphate, where 87.5% of the total data variance is explained. The hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) indicates that U-238 behaves in the same manner in the two types of phosphates; it associated with a group of four radionuclides; U-234, Po-210, Ra-226, Th-230, which the most abundant radionuclides, and all belong to the uranium-238 decay series. Two parameters have been adapted for the direct differentiate between the two phosphates. Firstly, U-238 in Uro phosphate have shown higher degree of mobility (CV% = 82.6) than that in Kurun phosphate (CV% = 64.7), and secondly, the activity ratio of Th-230/Th-232 in Uro phosphate is nine times than that in Kurun phosphate.

Major and minor ions, and trace metal compositions of groundwater have been studied with the aim of evaluating hydrogeochemical processes that are likely to impair the quality of water in the study area. The results show that groundwater in the area is weakly acidic with mean acidity being 5.83 pH units. The dominant cation in the area is Na, followed by K, Ca, and Mg, and the dominant anion is Cl (super -) , followed by HCO (sub 3) (super -) and SO (sub 4) (super 2-) . Two major hydrochemical facies have been identified as Na-Cl and Na-HCO (sub 3) , water types. Multivariate statistical techniques such as cluster analysis (CA) and factor analysis/principal component analysis (PCA), in R mode, were employed to examine the chemical compositions of groundwater and to identify factors that influenced each. Q-mode CA analysis resulted in two distinct water types as established by the hydrochemical facies. Cluster 1 waters contain predominantly Na-Cl. Cluster 2 waters contain Na-HCO (sub 3) and Na-Cl. Cluster 2 waters are fresher and of good quality than cluster 1. Factor analysis yielded five significant factors, explaining 86.56% of the total variance. PC1 explains 41.95% of the variance and is contributed by temperature, electrical conductivity, TDS, turbidity, SO (sub 4) (super 2-) , Cl (super -) , Na, K, Ca, Mg, and Mn and influenced by geochemical processes such as weathering, mineral dissolution, cation exchange, and oxidation-reduction reactions. PC2 explains 16.43% of the total variance and is characterized by high positive loadings of pH and HCO (sub 3) (super -) . This results from biogenic activities taking place to generate gaseous carbon dioxide that reacts with infiltrating water to generate HCO (sub 3) (super -) , which intend affect the pH. PC3 explains 11.17% of the total variance and is negatively loaded on PO (sub 4) (super 3-) and NO (sub 3) (super -) indicating anthropogenic influence. The R-mode PCA, supported by R-mode CA, have revealed hydrogeochemical processes as the major sources of ions in the groundwater.

AN - 1009524678; 22271404 AB - Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) combines selective accumulation of (10)B carriers in tumor tissue with subsequent neutron irradiation. We previously demonstrated the therapeutic efficacy of BNCT in the hamster cheek pouch oral cancer model. Optimization of BNCT depends largely on improving boron targeting to tumor cells. Seeking to maximize the potential of BNCT for the treatment for head and neck cancer, the aim of the present study was to perform boron biodistribution studies in the oral cancer model employing two different liposome formulations that were previously tested for a different pathology, i.e., in experimental mammary carcinoma in BALB/c mice: (1) MAC: liposomes incorporating K[nido-7-CH(3)(CH(2))(15)-7,8-C(2)B(9)H(11)] in the bilayer membrane and encapsulating a hypertonic buffer, administered intravenously at 6 mg B per kg body weight, and (2) MAC-TAC: liposomes incorporating K[nido-7-CH(3)(CH(2))(15)-7,8-C(2)B(9)H(11)] in the bilayer membrane and encapsulating a concentrated aqueous solution of the hydrophilic species Na(3) [ae-B(20)H(17)NH(3)], administered intravenously at 18 mg B per kg body weight. Samples of tumor, precancerous and normal pouch tissue, spleen, liver, kidney, and blood were taken at different times post-administration and processed to measure boron content by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. No ostensible clinical toxic effects were observed with the selected formulations. Both MAC and MAC-TAC delivered boron selectively to tumor tissue. Absolute tumor values for MAC-TAC peaked to 66.6 ± 16.1 ppm at 48 h and to 43.9 ± 17.6 ppm at 54 h with very favorable ratios of tumor boron relative to precancerous and normal tissue, making these protocols particularly worthy of radiobiological assessment. Boron concentration values obtained would result in therapeutic BNCT doses in tumor without exceeding radiotolerance in precancerous/normal tissue at the thermal neutron facility at RA-3.

AN - 1001958162; 22017565 AB - Three important medicinal fruits generally used by the people of Pakistan for the treatment of different diseases have been studied for their mineral contents. Twenty-two major and minor trace elements (essential, toxic and non-essential) were identified in Punica granatum (pomegranate), Ziziphus jujuba (jujube) and Piper cubeba L. (cubeb) by employing instrumental neutron activation analysis technique. The studied medicinal herbs are a good source of the essential elements while toxic elements are found in trace amounts. K is detected as a major element in pomegranate, jujube and cubeb with respective values of 1.20%, 1.18% and 2.01%. Pomegranate has significant concentrations of Na, Zn, Cr and Se; jujube has high Cl, Zn, Mn and Co contents while cubeb is a good source of K and Fe. The baseline data presented in this work can be used in understanding the role of mineral elements in nutritive, preventive and therapeutic properties of medicinal herbs.

AN - 934267774; 22365141 AB - Thermal processes are now the benchmark for the destruction of some waste whose toxicity requires special attention and management. Over many years the Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique (French atomic energy commission) has developed technologies to process radioactive waste containing many metals together with chlorine, and thus with a major risk of producing volatile chlorides with potentially catastrophic effects on plant facilities. To mitigate these difficulties in an incineration process for radioactive waste contaminated by plutonium (IRIS), the CEA has investigated the processes by which potentially hazardous compounds are produced in order to eliminate them or prevent their formation. The studies have led to propose a phosphate-based stabilization technique thanks to an addition of phosphorus in the waste. Through a reaction occurring in gas phase, the metals are stabilized under a phosphate form when the formation of volatiles chlorides is avoided. While this technique has substantially improved process maintenance and security, it has revealed other difficulties related to potentially large phosphate deposits capable to cause unacceptable pressure drops detrimental to the gas flow conditions. This article describes the results of recent studies seeking to prevent the formation of volatile chlorides and phosphate deposits liable to obstruct the system flow lines.

N1 - Last updated - 2012-04-13 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION, BENTON COUNTY, WASHINGTON (FORTY-SEVENTH FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 1021255492; 15298 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the operating license for the Columbia Generating Station (CGS) in Benton County, Washington is proposed to extend the licensed plant life for an additional 20 years in this 47th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996 on promulgation of rules for all license renewals. The final generic EIS identified 92 issues and reached conclusions relating to environmental impacts for 69 of these issues that apply to all plants. Neither the applicant, Energy Northwest, nor staff at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has identified new information for any of the 69 generic issues. Plant-specific review for the remaining 23 issues with regard to operations and refurbishment activities are addressed in this supplement. If the license is renewed, federal and state agencies and the owners of the plant would decide whether to continue plant operations based on factors such as the need for power. Without renewal, the license would expire on December 20, 2023. CGS is located 12 miles northwest of the city of Richland and 160 miles southeast of Seattle on 1,089 acres within the Department of Energy Hanford Site. The leased area is bounded on the east by the Columbia River. CGS is a single unit nuclear power plant with a boiling water reactor that began commercial operation in December 1984. General Electric Company supplied the nuclear steam supply system and Westinghouse Electric Company supplied the turbine generator. The nuclear steam supply system uses a single-cycle, forced-circulation system. The reactor core produces heat that boils water, producing steam for direct use in a turbine-generator to produce electricity. The primary containment structure is a free-standing steel pressure vessel containing a drywell and a suppression chamber. The secondary containment structure consists of the reactor building which has reinforced-concrete exterior walls up to the refueling floor. Above this level, the reactor building is a steel framed structure with insulated metal siding with sealed joints. The maximum rated power level limit of the reactor planned for the extended period of operation is 3,486 megawatts-thermal. The net and gross electrical power outputs are 1,190 and 1,230 megawatts-electric, respectively. The circulating-water system removes heat from the condenser and transfers it to the atmosphere through evaporation using six mechanical draft cooling towers. The circulating-water pumphouse circulates the water from the condenser through the cooling towers and back again at a rate of 550,000 gallons per minute. The cooling towers rise 60 feet above the basin and are 200 feet in diameter at the base of the towers. The system uses water from the Columbia River to replenish the water lost from evaporation, drift, and blowdown. During normal operating periods, the average makeup water withdrawal is 17,000 gallons per minute. In addition to the proposed license renewal, this final supplemental EIS considers alternative methods of power generation and a No Action Alternative. Replacement power options considered include new natural gas-fired combined-cycle generation, new nuclear generation, and a combination alternative that includes some natural gas-fired capacity, energy conservation, a hydropower component, and a wind-power component. The NRC recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for CGS are not great enough to deny the option of license renewal for energy-planning decisionmakers. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the license would allow Energy Northwest, a municipal corporation and joint operating agency of the State of Washington, to meet the energy needs of its 27 public member utilities from across the state. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Elevated concentrations of chloride and sulfate have been detected adjacent to the CGS site and have been attributed to the infiltration of circulating cooling water that entered the soil through drywells. These elevated concentrations have not affected the groundwater used for drinking water. Minimal entrainment and impingement of Columbia River species would continue, but with no noticeable alteration of the population of anadromous fish including their early life stages. The relatively small thermal plume that could occur in the winter months would likely have a minimal affect on aquatic species. Radiation doses to workers and the public would be within federal radiation protection standards. LEGAL MANDATES: Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2001 et seq.), Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR, Part 54).

We consider the case when one of the walls enclosing the right angle moves away from it. Neutral curves, eigenmodes and kinetic-energy production rates are computed. Five different instability modes are found, depending on the aspect ratio, i.e. the length ratio of the walls enclosing the right angle. The spatial structure of the kinetic-energy transfer between the basic flow and the critical modes indicates that three of the critical modes for very shallow cavities are due to an elliptic instability mechanism. The other two critical modes, for moderately shallow to deep cavities, are due to a centrifugal mechanism. The instabilities found are discussed and compared with those arising in rectangular cavities.

Guidance in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.132 indicates that excavations for safety-related structures, and other excavations important for verifying subsurface conditions at the site, should be mapped in detail by geologists. NRC Regulatory Guide 1.208 states that faults exposed in site excavations should be mapped and assessed in regard to rupture potential while walls and floors of the excavations are exposed, to include assessment of non-tectonic surface and near-surface deformation. As part of the regulatory review process at the NRC, an applicant conducts geologic mapping of excavations for safety-related structures at and adjacent to the nuclear island, and NRC geologists review the resulting geologic maps and associated data and directly examine the mapped foundation rock units and geologic features in the field to confirm that no potentially detrimental tectonic or non-tectonic features occur in the excavations. NRC geologists specifically evaluate geometry and field relationships of tectonic features, including data on relative ages of these features and constraining ages established from mineralogy and radiometric age dates acquired by the applicant; relationships of site tectonic structures to regional tectonic features; and lithologies, including susceptibility to dissolution. These activities, which are implemented at each proposed new reactor site, enable NRC geologists to assess the potential for tectonic and non-tectonic surface and near-surface deformation at the site, and to determine whether capable (i.e., Quaternary age) tectonic features occur that may influence site suitability.

[Part 2 of 2] T2 - GE-HITACHI GLOBAL LASER ENRICHMENT LLC FACILITY, WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA. AN - 1124734959; 15256-8_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a license to construct, operate, and decommission a laser-based uranium enrichment facility near Wilmington, North Carolina is proposed. General Electric (GE)-Hitachi Global Laser Enrichment LLC (GLE) submitted an environmental report to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the proposed enrichment facility which would be located on 100 acres in the north-central sector of an existing GE property in an unincorporated area of New Hanover County. The proposed GLE Facility would enrich uranium for use in commercial nuclear fuel for power reactors. Feed material would be comprised of non-enriched uranium hexafluoride (UF6). GLE would employ a laser-based enrichment process to enrich uranium to up to eight percent uranium-235 by weight, with an initial planned maximum target production of six million separative work units per year. The proposed facility would employ the separation of isotopes by laser excitation (SILEX) process, a third-generation laser-based technology for enriching natural uranium. If the license is approved, GLE would expect to begin facility construction in 2012, and continue some construction activities through 2020. GLE anticipates commencing initial production in 2014 and reaching peak production in 2020. Prior to license expiration in 2052, GLE would seek to renew its license to continue operating the facility, or plan for the decontamination and decommissioning of the facility per the applicable licensing conditions and regulations. Primary facilities would include an operations building and six cylinder storage pads where licensed material would be used or stored. New facility buildings and supporting infrastructure would include three administrative buildings, waste storage buildings, an electrical substation, backup diesel generators, potable and process water systems, a holding pond for cylinder storage pad stormwater, a stormwater wet detention basin, parking areas, and roads. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers alternative sites, alternative sources of low-enriched uranium, and alternative technologies for uranium enrichment. The NRC staffs conclusion is that GLEs descriptions, specifications, and analyses provide an adequate basis for safety and safeguards of facility operations and that operation of the facility would not pose an undue risk to worker and public health and safety. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed facility would provide an additional domestic source of low-enriched uranium to be used in commercial nuclear power plants. Once operational, production would mitigate the reliability risk for the nuclear fuel supply imposed by the current dependence on a single domestic supplier and foreign sources for low-enriched uranium. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Impacts from preconstruction activities would generally be small, and most would be mitigated. The disturbed area would be cleared of vegetation and would lead to the displacement of some local wildlife populations. Construction of new facilities would increase fugitive dust, the potential for soil erosion and stormwater pollution, and vehicle traffic and emissions. Water consumption from onsite wells would be relatively small and the risk for significant adverse impacts on neighboring residential wells or public supply wells is expected to be small. During operations, workers and members of the public could be exposed to radiation and chemicals. There would be some irreversible commitment of land at offsite locations for disposal of wastes generated during the conversion of depleted UF6. LEGAL MANDATES: Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2001 et seq.) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR, Part 54).

Preparation date: March 9, 2012 N1 - Last updated - 2012-11-01 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GE-HITACHI GLOBAL LASER ENRICHMENT LLC FACILITY, WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA. AN - 1013491815; 15256 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a license to construct, operate, and decommission a laser-based uranium enrichment facility near Wilmington, North Carolina is proposed. General Electric (GE)-Hitachi Global Laser Enrichment LLC (GLE) submitted an environmental report to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the proposed enrichment facility which would be located on 100 acres in the north-central sector of an existing GE property in an unincorporated area of New Hanover County. The proposed GLE Facility would enrich uranium for use in commercial nuclear fuel for power reactors. Feed material would be comprised of non-enriched uranium hexafluoride (UF6). GLE would employ a laser-based enrichment process to enrich uranium to up to eight percent uranium-235 by weight, with an initial planned maximum target production of six million separative work units per year. The proposed facility would employ the separation of isotopes by laser excitation (SILEX) process, a third-generation laser-based technology for enriching natural uranium. If the license is approved, GLE would expect to begin facility construction in 2012, and continue some construction activities through 2020. GLE anticipates commencing initial production in 2014 and reaching peak production in 2020. Prior to license expiration in 2052, GLE would seek to renew its license to continue operating the facility, or plan for the decontamination and decommissioning of the facility per the applicable licensing conditions and regulations. Primary facilities would include an operations building and six cylinder storage pads where licensed material would be used or stored. New facility buildings and supporting infrastructure would include three administrative buildings, waste storage buildings, an electrical substation, backup diesel generators, potable and process water systems, a holding pond for cylinder storage pad stormwater, a stormwater wet detention basin, parking areas, and roads. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers alternative sites, alternative sources of low-enriched uranium, and alternative technologies for uranium enrichment. The NRC staffs conclusion is that GLEs descriptions, specifications, and analyses provide an adequate basis for safety and safeguards of facility operations and that operation of the facility would not pose an undue risk to worker and public health and safety. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed facility would provide an additional domestic source of low-enriched uranium to be used in commercial nuclear power plants. Once operational, production would mitigate the reliability risk for the nuclear fuel supply imposed by the current dependence on a single domestic supplier and foreign sources for low-enriched uranium. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Impacts from preconstruction activities would generally be small, and most would be mitigated. The disturbed area would be cleared of vegetation and would lead to the displacement of some local wildlife populations. Construction of new facilities would increase fugitive dust, the potential for soil erosion and stormwater pollution, and vehicle traffic and emissions. Water consumption from onsite wells would be relatively small and the risk for significant adverse impacts on neighboring residential wells or public supply wells is expected to be small. During operations, workers and members of the public could be exposed to radiation and chemicals. There would be some irreversible commitment of land at offsite locations for disposal of wastes generated during the conversion of depleted UF6.

Since confirmatory surveys occurred, surface activity in source pit 2 has been remediated to a value below the Co-60 screening level. Because the two issues described have been resolved with the licensee, ORISE concluded that the licensee's FSS data adequately and accurately demonstrated that the NRL is below the appropriate screening levels and that ORISE confirmatory survey activities validate the licensee's conclusion that the appropriate guidelines have been met.

Land use impacts are described in EIS Section 4.2.1. Because the footprint of the LES facility and the duration of its operations will be unchanged by the license extension, there is no impact on land use beyond those previously evaluated in the EIS.
