Résumé
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering an amendment of Special Nuclear Materials (SNM) License No. SNM-2010, issued to Louisiana Energy Services, LLC, dba Urenco USA (UUSA) for the operation of the Urenco USA uranium enrichment facility in Eunice, New Mexico. The amended license would increase the allowed enrichment of uranium-235 (U-235) from the current limit of 5.5 weight percent U-235 (referred to as low-enriched uranium or LEU) to less than 10 weight percent U-235 (referred to as LEU+). For this proposed action, the NRC staff is issuing an environmental assessment (EA) and finding of no significant impact (FONSI).
