URENCO USA (Formerly Louisiana Energy Services, L.P.) License Amendment Request: Notice of Opportunity To Request a Hearing and to Petition for Leave to Intervene, and Commission Order Imposing Procedures for Document Access

الملخص

In November 2012, URENCO USA submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) a license amendment request. The existing license (No. SNM-2010) authorizes operation of a uranium enrichment facility in New Mexico. The facility produces enriched uranium up to a maximum of 5.0 percent U-235, using a gas centrifuge process. If granted, the license amendment would authorize increased annual production capability from the present 3 million separative work units (SWU) to 10 million SWU.
