The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing an environmental assessment (EA) and finding of no significant impact (FONSI) for a proposed amendment of NRC source materials license SUB- 1435 held by the U.S. Department of the Army (Army) for the Jefferson Proving Ground from "possession only for decommissioning" to "possession only." The proposed amendment of the Army's license would also include an exemption from the NRC's decommissioning timeliness requirements in the regulations. The EA, "Final Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Amendment of Materials License SUB-1435, Jefferson Proving Ground, Southeastern Indiana (Jefferson, Ripley, and Jennings Counties)," documents the NRC staff's environmental review of the license amendment application.
