Nuclear Regulatory Commission

Abstract

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering the renewal of Special Nuclear Materials (SNM) License No. SNM-2511 for the Diablo Canyon (DC) Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) located in San Luis Obispo County, California. If approved, under the renewed license SNM-2511, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) will be able to continue to operate the DC ISFSI for an additional 40 years. The NRC staff has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for this proposed license renewal in accordance with its regulations. Based on the EA, the NRC has concluded that a finding of no significant impact (FONSI) is appropriate. Therefore, in accordance with NRC regulations, preparation of an environmental impact statement (EIS) is not warranted for the proposed action. The NRC staff also is conducting a safety evaluation of the proposed license renewal.
