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.

Neither the reactive oxygen species involved nor the targets for damage have been certainly identified, and the aim of this study was to address these issues. During exposures to natural sunlight, photo-protection provided by nitrogen sparging was compared with which provided by the addition of L-histidine (an efficient scavenger for hydroxyl radical and singlet oxygen) or mannitOl (an hydroxyl radical scavenger which reacts poorly with singlet oxygen) to the irradiation medium. Both scavengers reproduced for the most part the effect of oxygen depletion, indicating that damage depends mainly on hydroxyl radical generation. Survival of irradiated bacteria decreased considerably when they were cultured using a substrate unsuitable for fermentation, suggesting that respiration impairment is a key factor in cell killing. This observation is in keeping with the notion that the respiratory chain is the main target for the action of sunlight in Escherichia coli.

The origin identification and recharge estimates of groundwater are significant components of sustainable groundwater development in this Mountain karst aquifer of Figeh spring. During the period 2001-2009, monthly groundwater and precipitation samples were taken and the isotopic compositions of delta super(18)O, delta super(2)H, and chloride contents were analyzed to identify groundwater origins and to estimate recharge rates. The delta super(18)O, delta super(2)H of the groundwater show that the groundwater recharge is of meteoric origin. The chloride mass balance (CMB) method was used to quantify recharge rates of groundwater in the Mountain karst aquifer of Figeh spring. The recharge rate varies from 192 to 826 mm/year, which corresponds to 43 and 67% of the total annual rainfall. Recharge rates estimated by CMB were compared with values obtained from other methods and were found to be in good agreement. This study can be used to develop effective programs for groundwater management and development.

The Aleppo basin is comprised of two main limestone aquifers: the first one is unconfined of Paleogene age and the second is confined of Upper Cretaceous age. The chemical data indicate that the dissolution of minerals and evaporation are the main processes controlling groundwater mineralization. The groundwater from the two aquifers is characterized by distinctive stable isotope signatures. This difference in water isotopes is interpreted in terms of difference origin and recharge period. Fresh and brackish shallow groundwater were mostly recharged during the Holocene period. The presence of super(3)H in several groundwater samples of this aquifer gives evidence that groundwater recharge is going on. Brackish water of the deep confined aquifer has depleted stable isotope composition and very low super(14)C activity that indicates recharge during the late Pleistocene cold period.

N1 - Last updated - 2012-01-13 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FLUORINE EXTRACTION PROCESS AND DEPLETED URANIUM DECONVERSION PLANT, LEA COUNTY, NEW MEXICO. AN - 16377559; 15200 AB - PURPOSE: The licensing of a depleted uranium deconversion and fluorine extraction facility near Hobbs in Lea County, New Mexico is proposed. International Isotopes Fluorine Products (IIFP), Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Isotopes, Inc., submitted a source material license application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in December, 2009 for the construction and operation of the fluorine extraction process and depleted uranium deconversion plant (FEP/DUP). The proposed facility would provide services to the uranium enrichment industry, which makes fuel for nuclear power reactors. The license would allow IIFP to possess, use, transfer, or deliver source and byproduct materials at the proposed facility for 40 years. The FEP/DUP would employ three basic processes to deconvert depleted uranium hexafluoride into fluoride products for commercial resale, and uranium oxides for disposal. The proposed 40-acre facility would be typical of specialty industrial chemical facilities and would be enclosed with a security fence with a surveillance road just inside the fence. Pole-mounted security lighting would be installed around the entire perimeter. Entry into the proposed facility would be from the west via a paved road accessed from New Mexico Highway 483 which bounds the proposed site on the west. Structures within the security fence would include process, administration, and laboratory buildings; a maintenance shop; security facilities; utilities; cylinder storage pads; and warehouses. The FEP/DUP is projected to be capable of processing up to 7.3 million pounds of depleted uranium hexafluoride per year. Three types of products/byproducts would be shipped: anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (AHF), FEP products (high-purity silicon tetrafluoride and boron trifluoride), and depleted uranium oxides. Given the hazards of fluoride products, especially AHF, the AHF staging containment building and the FEP products trailer loading building would be equipped with an array of water-fog nozzles that would automatically activate in the event of a leak of AHF or fluoride product chemicals. Up to 3,170 tons per year of low-level radioactive waste could be sent for disposal annually. In addition to the proposed action, this draft EIS analyzes a No Action Alternative. The preliminary recommendation is that the proposed license be issued to IIFP. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed FEP/DUP would address the potential hazard of continued storage of depleted uranium hexafluoride at commercial uranium enrichment facilities. The plant's fluoride products could be used for applications in the electronic, solar panel, and semiconductor markets. Operations would generate $56 million to $71 million (in 2009 dollars) in wages, benefits, goods and services annually. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Forty acres of a 640-acre tract primarily used for cattle grazing would be disturbed and fenced. Vehicle emissions and temporary fugitive dust released during construction would result in nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter levels in excess of standards. Operation of the facility would require approximately 730 radiological shipments annually.

[Part 2 of 2] T2 - FLUORINE EXTRACTION PROCESS AND DEPLETED URANIUM DECONVERSION PLANT, LEA COUNTY, NEW MEXICO. AN - 1012742239; 15200-1_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The licensing of a depleted uranium deconversion and fluorine extraction facility near Hobbs in Lea County, New Mexico is proposed. International Isotopes Fluorine Products (IIFP), Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Isotopes, Inc., submitted a source material license application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in December, 2009 for the construction and operation of the fluorine extraction process and depleted uranium deconversion plant (FEP/DUP). The proposed facility would provide services to the uranium enrichment industry, which makes fuel for nuclear power reactors. The license would allow IIFP to possess, use, transfer, or deliver source and byproduct materials at the proposed facility for 40 years. The FEP/DUP would employ three basic processes to deconvert depleted uranium hexafluoride into fluoride products for commercial resale, and uranium oxides for disposal. The proposed 40-acre facility would be typical of specialty industrial chemical facilities and would be enclosed with a security fence with a surveillance road just inside the fence. Pole-mounted security lighting would be installed around the entire perimeter. Entry into the proposed facility would be from the west via a paved road accessed from New Mexico Highway 483 which bounds the proposed site on the west. Structures within the security fence would include process, administration, and laboratory buildings; a maintenance shop; security facilities; utilities; cylinder storage pads; and warehouses. The FEP/DUP is projected to be capable of processing up to 7.3 million pounds of depleted uranium hexafluoride per year. Three types of products/byproducts would be shipped: anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (AHF), FEP products (high-purity silicon tetrafluoride and boron trifluoride), and depleted uranium oxides. Given the hazards of fluoride products, especially AHF, the AHF staging containment building and the FEP products trailer loading building would be equipped with an array of water-fog nozzles that would automatically activate in the event of a leak of AHF or fluoride product chemicals. Up to 3,170 tons per year of low-level radioactive waste could be sent for disposal annually. In addition to the proposed action, this draft EIS analyzes a No Action Alternative. The preliminary recommendation is that the proposed license be issued to IIFP. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed FEP/DUP would address the potential hazard of continued storage of depleted uranium hexafluoride at commercial uranium enrichment facilities. The plant's fluoride products could be used for applications in the electronic, solar panel, and semiconductor markets. Operations would generate $56 million to $71 million (in 2009 dollars) in wages, benefits, goods and services annually. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Forty acres of a 640-acre tract primarily used for cattle grazing would be disturbed and fenced. Vehicle emissions and temporary fugitive dust released during construction would result in nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter levels in excess of standards. Operation of the facility would require approximately 730 radiological shipments annually. However, the collective doses from shipments and accidents involving shipments would be comparatively low, versus natural sources of radiation.

However, radiation protection requirements are not necessarily well adopted. In this study nine fluoroscopy X-ray units in Sudan were examined for compliance with international standards. The tests included: beam quality, entrance surface air kerma, image quality and radiation field measurements. Staff radiation protection tools such as lead aprons and eye glasses were also visually examined to find out whether international recommendations were fulfilled and to determine the level of staff awareness. The measured peak tube voltage deviation exceeded the recommended tolerance level in 30 % of the measurements. The results of patient doses measurements exceeded the recommended reference dose levels in 43 % of the measurements; however image quality and radiation field generally fulfilled the requirements for most units. The study revealed that a considerable number of fluoroscopy units were not performing according to the international standards and highlights the need of optimisation of radiation protection.

The aim of this study was to develop a patient-dependent optimisation technique that uses patient diameter to select a combination of CT scanning parameters that minimise dose delivered to patients undergoing abdominal CT examinations. The study was performed using cylindrical phantoms of diameters ranging from 16 to 40 cm in order to establish the relationship between image degradation, CT scanning techniques, patient dose and patient size from two CT scanners. These relationships were established by scanning the phantoms using standard scanning technique followed by selected combinations of scanning parameters. The image noises through phantom images were determined using region of interest software available in both scanners. The energy depositions to the X-ray detector through phantoms were determined from measurements of CT dose index in air corrected for attenuation of the phantom materials. The results demonstrate that exposure settings (milliampere seconds) could be reduced by up to 82 % for smaller phantom relative to standard milliampere seconds, while detector signal could be reduced by up to 93 % for smaller phantom relative to energy depositions required when scanned using standard scanning protocols. It was further revealed that the use of the object-specific scanning parameters on studies performed with phantom of different diameters could reduce the incident radiation to small size object by up to 86 % to obtain the same image quality required for standard adult object. In view of the earlier mentioned fact, substantial dose saving from small-sized adults and children patients undergoing abdomen CT examinations could be achieved through optimal adjustment of CT scanning technique based on the patient transverse diameter.

It is an integrated system for the user-friendly storage, processing and control of all existing internal and external dosimetry data. The Radiation Protection Board (RPB) of the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission has installed, customised, tested and using the DMS as a comprehensive DMS to improve personnel and area monitoring in the country. Personnel dose records from the RPBs database from 2000 to 2009 are grouped into medical, industrial and education/research sectors. The medical sector dominated the list of monitored institutions in the country over the 10-y period representing similar to 87 %, while the industrial and education/research sectors represent similar to 9 and similar to 4 %, respectively. The number of monitored personnel in the same period follows a similar trend with medical, industrial and education/research sectors representing similar to 74, similar to 17 and similar to 9 %, respectively. Analysis of dose data for 2009 showed that there was no instance of a dose above the annual dose limit of 20 mSv, however, 2.7 % of the exposed workers received individual annual doses >1 mSv. The highest recorded individual annual dose and total collective dose in all sectors were 4.73 mSv and 159.84 man Sv, respectively. Workers in the medical sector received higher individual doses than in the other two sectors, and average dose per exposed worker in all sectors is 0.25 mSv.

Three locations were sampled along the river to evaluate the levels of organochlorine pesticide residue in the river. Sediment and surface water samples were extracted by soxhlet and liquid-liquid extraction respectively and analyzed using Gas Chromatograph coupled with electron capture detector. The detectable organochlorine pesticides were gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), delta-hexachlorocyclohexane, heptachlor, aldrin and dieldrin. The other pesticides that were investigated are gamma-chlordane, alpha endosulfan, endosulfan sulfate, p,p'-DDT and its metabolite p,p'-DDE, methoxychlor, endrin and its metabolite endrin aldehyde and endrin ketone. The order of increasing frequency of detection of samples was higher in sediment than water. In sediment, the mean concentration ranged from 0.030 mu gkg-1 dry weight (endrin) to 10.98 mu gkg-1 dry weight (aldrin). The highest detected concentration of organochlorine in water was endosulfan sulfate with mean concentration of 0.185 mu gL-1. Analysis of variance indicated significant differences for most organochlorine pesticide residue in the sediment sampled from the various locations. Some of the levels of organochlorine pesticides detected in water were relatively high compared to guideline values set by World Health Organization and Australia and thus could be harmful if the trend is not checked.

The study has helped develop prospective LEU cores for MNSR that will ensure desirable power and flux. MCNP5 code was used to study two of such designs; one LEU core with aluminium shim tray and the other with Zr-4 shim tray for the Ghana Research Reactor-1 to investigate their impacts on the neutronics of the reactor. A final multiplication factor of the Al shim tray design was recorded as 1.00389 +/- 0.0006 whilst that of the Zr-4 shim tray design was recorded as 1.00468 +/- 0.0006. The flux profile in all the regions investigated was found to follow the same pattern for both designs. The effective delayed neutron fractions were found to be 8.39 +/- 0.0006 x 10 super(-3 and 8.43 +/- 0.0006 x 10) super(-)3 for the Al shim tray design and the Zr-4 shim tray design respectively.

In the present investigation, the radioactive tracer technique was used to measure the RTD of aqueous phase in a series of gold leaching tanks at the Damang gold processing plant in Ghana. The objective of the investigation was to measure the effective volume of each tank and validate the design data after recent process intensification or revamping of the plant. I-131 was used as a radioactive tracer and was instantaneously injected into the feed stream of the first tank and monitored at the outlet of different tanks. Both sampling and online measurement methods were used to monitor the tracer concentration. The results of measurements indicated that both the methods provided identical RTD curves. The mean residence time (MRT) and effective volume of each tank was estimated. The tanks-in-series model with exchange between active and stagnant volume was used and found suitable to describe the flow structure of aqueous phase in the tanks. The estimated effective volume of the tanks and high degree of mixing in tanks could validate the design data and confirmed the expectation of the plant engineer after intensification of the process.

The cross sections of all the reactor components at different temperatures were generated using the WIMSD4 code. These group constants were used then in the CITATION code to calculate the multiplication factor and the neutron spectrum at different water and fuel temperatures using 69 energy groups. Only one parameter was changed where all other parameters were kept constant. The calculated feedback coefficients were compared with the measured ones. Good agreements between the measured and calculated feedback reactivity coefficients were obtained.

In such a circumstance, determining the cladding resistance to crack propagation in the through-thickness direction is crucial to predicting cladding failure. To address this issue, through-thickness crack propagation in hydrided Zircaloy-4 sheet was analyzed at 25 degree C, 300 degree C, and 375 degree C. At 25 degree C, the fracture toughness decreased with increasing hydrogen content and with an increasing fraction of radial hydrides. Hydride particles fractured ahead of the crack tip, creating a path for crack growth. At both 300 degree C and 375 degree C, the resistance to crack-growth initiation was sufficiently high that crack extension was often caused by crack-tip blunting. There was no evidence of hydride particles fracturing near the crack tip, and no significant effect of hydrogen content on fracture toughness was observed at these elevated temperatures.

AN - 912640190; 21980958 AB - We previously demonstrated the efficacy of BNCT mediated by boronophenylalanine (BPA) to treat tumors in a hamster cheek pouch model of oral cancer with no normal tissue radiotoxicity and moderate, albeit reversible, mucositis in precancerous tissue around treated tumors. It is known that boron targeting of the largest possible proportion of tumor cells contributes to the success of BNCT and that tumor blood vessel normalization improves drug delivery to the tumor. Within this context, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of blood vessel normalization on the therapeutic efficacy and potential radiotoxicity of BNCT in the hamster cheek pouch model of oral cancer. Blood vessel normalization was induced by two doses of thalidomide in tumor-bearing hamsters on 2 consecutive days. All studies in thalidomide-treated animals were performed 48 h after the first dose of thalidomide, previously established as the window of normalization. Biodistribution studies were performed with BPA at a dose of 15.5 mg (10)B/kg in thalidomide-treated (Th+) and untreated (Th-) tumor-bearing hamsters. The effect of blood vessel normalization prior to BPA administration on the efficacy of BNCT was assessed in in vivo BNCT studies at the RA-3 Nuclear Reactor in tumor-bearing hamsters. Group I was treated with BPA-BNCT after treatment with thalidomide (Th+ BPA-BNCT). Group II was treated with BPA-BNCT alone (Th- BPA-BNCT). Group III was treated with the beam only after treatment with thalidomide (Th+ BO), and Group IV was treated with the beam only (Th- BO). Groups I and II were given the same dose of BPA (15.5 mg (10)B/kg), and all groups (I-IV) were exposed to the same neutron fluence. Two additional groups were treated with the beam only at a higher dose to exacerbate mucositis in precancerous tissue and to explore the potential direct protective effect of thalidomide on radiation-induced mucositis in a scenario of more severe toxicity, i.e. Group V (Th+ hdBO) and Group VI (Th- hdBO). The animals were followed for 28 days. Biodistribution studies revealed no statistically significant differences in gross boron content between Th+ and Th- animals. Overall tumor control (complete response + partial response) at 28 days post-treatment was significantly higher for Group I (Th+ BPA-BNCT) than for Group II (Th- BPA-BNCT): 84 ± 3% compared to 67 ± 5%. Pretreatment with thalidomide did not induce statistically significant changes in overall tumor control induced by the beam only, i.e. 15 ± 5% in Group III (Th+ BO) and 18 ± 5% in Group IV (Th- BO), or in overall tumor control induced by the high-dose beam only, i.e. 60 ± 7% in Group V (Th+ hdBO) and 47 ± 10% in Group VI (Th- hdBO). BPA-BNCT alone (Group II) induced mucositis in precancerous tissue that reached Grades 3-4 in 80% of the animals, whereas pretreatment with thalidomide (Group I) prevented mucositis Grades 3 and 4 completely. Beam-only Group III (Th+ BO) exhibited only Grade 1 mucositis in precancerous tissue, whereas 17% of the animals in beam-only Group IV (Th- BO) reached Grade 2 mucositis. High-dose beam-only group V (Th+ hdBO) exhibited only Grade 2 mucositis, whereas high-dose beam-only group VI (Th- hdBO) reached Grade 3 mucositis in 83% of the animals. In all cases mucositis in precancerous tissue was reversible. No normal tissue radiotoxicity was observed with any of the protocols. Pretreatment with thalidomide enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of BNCT and reduced precancerous tissue toxicity.

A maximum activity of 5.1 GBq was achieved through simulation using FORTRAN 90, for an irradiation of 6 h. But experimentally only 4 h irradiation could be done, which resulted in an activity of 4.0x105 Bq. The discrepancy in the activities was due to the fact that beta decays released during the process could not be considered.

The values of nutritive components, nitrogen forms, IVDOM, ME and NEL declined and concentrations of crude fiber and cell wall constituents increased with the increase in cutting length. Total phenols, hydrolysable tannins and condensed tannins amounted to 70, 17 and 0.6 g/kg DM, respectively. The addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG, 6000) to the plant samples incubated with rumen fluid at a ratio of (2:1 PEG:substrate) increased the values of IVDOM, ME and NEL by 40 g/kg DM, 0.59 MJ/kg DM and 0.42 MJ/kg DM, respectively. IVDOM, ME and NEL were negatively correlated with crude fiber and cell wall constituents but positively correlated with nitrogen forms and non-fiber carbohydrates. Olive pruning branches in diameter <3 mm could be used as sources of feeds for small ruminants.

Seismic, hydroacoustic, radionuclide and infrasound methods are used for the monitoring. The data center was commissioned on 3 February, 2010 at the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission. At present Ghana does not have any operational, centralised data (seismic, hydroacoustic, radionuclide and infrasound) acquisition system with the capability of accessing data from other international stations. Hence, the need of setting up the National Data Center which would enable us constantly monitor, manage and coordinate both natural and man-made seismic activities in the country and around the globe, upload data to the International Data Center (IDC) as well as receive and use International Monitoring System (IMS) data and IDC products for treaty verification and compliance. Apart from these, the center also accesses and analyzes seismic waveforms relevant to its needs from the International Data Center; makes data available to its stakeholder institutions for earthquake disaster mitigation; reports on all aspects of disasters related to earthquake to the relevant government agencies that deal with disasters; makes recommendations to the government of Ghana on earthquake safety measures; provides information to assist government institutions to develop appropriate land and building policies. The center in collaboration with stakeholder agencies periodically organises public lectures on earthquake disaster risk mitigation.

Four sampling campaigns were carried out, in which 86 soil, 139 plant, 30 air particulate, 16 water, 12 PG, 6 phosphate ore (raw and treated) and 3 fertilizer samples were collected. Differential pulse anode stripping voltammetry was used for Pb and Cd determination, atomic absorption spectrometry was used for Zn, Cr and Cu determination, and instrumental neutron activation analysis was used for Se, Ni, As and Hg determination. Fluoride concentration was determined via fluoride ion selective electrode. The data revealed that most of the heavy metals were retained in the fertilizer. Fluoride content in PG was 0.47%. The presence of PG piles showed no impact on the run-off and ground and lake waters in the area. However, fluoride concentration was double the permissible airborne threshold in the sites to the east of the PG piles because of the prevailing wind in the region. Similarly, enhanced concentrations of fluoride were recorded for the eastern soil samples. The content of heavy metals in plants was element- and plant-specific and influenced by the element concentration in soil, the soil texture and the pH. The maximal mean of fluoride was found in the plants species of the eastern sites (699 mg kg-1), which mainly related to PG erosion and airborne deposition. Thus, the main impact of the PG piles was to increase the concentration of fluoride in the surrounding area. A national action should be taken to regulate PG piles.

Walp) AN - 1367491074; 18080145 AB - Cowpeas during storage may be attacked by a number of biological agents (microorganisms, rodents, and insects) which results in losses in the quality and quantity of the stored seeds. One of the means of reducing these losses is through the application of radiation processing. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of gamma irradiation on a major storage insect pest, Callosobruchus maculatus F. and on moisture sorption isotherms of cowpea seeds in storage. The cowpeas were infested with adults C. maculatus and then irradiated at doses of 0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0 and 1.5 (kGy) at a dose rate of 1.074 kGyhr super(-1). Samples were stored for 1 month under controlled temperature (27.3-30 degree C) and humidity (70-85%) during which counting of the insects was done every 48 hours and those alive or dead noted. Moisture sorption isotherms of the cowpea samples were equally determined by establishing equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) of 55, 65, 75, 85 and 95 % using a formulation of glycerol-water mixture at temperature of 30 plus or minus 1 and the weight (loss or gain) of the samples was determined every 2 days. Irradiation at a dose of 0.25 kGy killed the C. maculatus within eight days and therefore 0.25 kGy would be economically beneficial as a control dose. There was significant difference (p < 0.05) in the percent mortality between the irradiated and the non-irradiated weevils, and the percent mortality increased with increase in the radiation dose. At moisture content of 14 % the irradiated cowpea samples were safety stored for one month at an equilibrium relative humidity of 60-75 % at a temperature of 29 plus or minus 2 degree C.

Among the steps being taken is the determination of suitable sites for the operation of nuclear power plant. This paper outlines major factors which influence the site selection, i.e. geology, hydrology, seismicity, etc. proposed by the IAEA and some countries and relates them to the situation in Ghana. In this regard, the major issues that have come up in the site selection in Ghana are discussed. These include preference of coastal areas to the inland fresh water areas due to concerns about the site location in fresh water bodies and elimination of the areas with fault lines and relatively high level seismicity. Putting all factors together, site location has been limited to the areas along the coast at the west of the Akwapim fault. This area, which lies between 0 degree 23' west and 3 degree 06' west, is being assessed to obtain a candidate site. On-going activities to identify candidate sites are presented and measures to deal with challenges associated with site selection are also discussed.Original Abstract: Ganoje pradedama igyvendinti atomines energetikos programa, siekiant uztikrinti elektros energijos tiekimo patikimuma.

The pattern of dry matter accumulation and partitioning varies with cultivars and the environment in which the maize crop grows. This study was conducted under rainfed conditions in a coastal savannah agro-ecological environment to explore the pattern of dry matter accumulation and partitioning of improved maize cultivars Golden Crystal, Mamaba and Obatanpa, as a way of identifying specific uses for these maize cultivars which could be beneficial to the experimental area and maize production in Ghana, generally. The three maize cultivars were cultivated under rainfed conditions during the major and minor cropping seasons in four replicates in each cropping season. Total, leaf, stem, cob husk and grain dry matter as well as harvest index were determined for each maize cultivar and analyzed for pattern of distribution in relation to the cropping season. Generally, the bulk of the total dry matter (TDM) was partitioned into grain dry matter, with Obatanpa and Mamaba consistently maintaining stable grain dry matter of about 80 and 90% of TDM, respectively, at crop maturity during the major and minor cropping seasons. Additionally, the harvest indices ranged from 32.6% for Golden Crystal to 57.5% for Mamaba during the major cropping season with Obatanpa maintaining a fairly constant harvest index of about 38% in both cropping seasons and the harvest index of Golden Crystal dropped from the highest value of 57.5% during the major cropping season to below 20% during the minor cropping season when the seasonal rainfall stood at 290.7 mm. Results of the study seemed to suggest that Golden Crystal could not partition its superior TDM into grains under low and poor seasonal rainfall. Therefore, Golden Crystal is the maize cultivar having the potential for making silage for animal feed to support and enhance sustainable animal production in the coastal savannah agro-ecological environment of Ghana, where seasonal rainfall is characteristically low and erratic. While, Obatanpa proved suitable for grain production regardless of the cropping seasons, Mamaba could serve a dual purpose of providing grain yield as well as being used for silage production because of its prolific production of TDM in both the major and minor cropping seasons in the coastal savannah agro-ecological environment of Ghana.

Negative disequilibrium in the Nagar Parkar granites and the higher U-content in the wide and extensive zones of kaolin in the low lying inter-plutonic areas suggest mobility of uranium from the system. Higher U and Th concentrations, pronounced hydrothermal activity, relatively higher abundances of trace and REE and presence of UO (sub 2) in zircons in Malani granites enhance the probability of the creation of primary mineralization. U, Hf, and Ta are generally lower as compared to Th, Zr, and Nb in the granites of both the suits. Malani granites show relatively higher abundances of favorable trace and REE, particularly Siwana, which also have higher U/Th ratios (0.11-4.5). It has been found that the U and Th concentrations increase as a function of high heat production. Nagar Parkar as well as Malani granites contain certain accessory minerals (especially zircon, sphene, apatite, additionally alanite and epidote in Nagar Parkar granites) favorably accommodate uranium in their structure. The increase in U-content from east to west in Malani, moderate uranium enrichment in Bara Formation and calcretes in Tharparkar are indicative of probable transport, suggesting mobility of uranium from the system. Therefore, lignite-related sandstones of Bara Formation in Thar coal basin, adjacent to both the igneous suits, and calcretes in the desert environment may be the prospective hosts for secondary uranium deposits.

We use InSAR observations of surface deformation from 9 earthquakes to compare inferred fault parameters with the waveform inversions and global catalogs to assess their accuracies. While the depths from the InSAR and waveform analyses generally agree within error, horizontal and depth errors in global catalogs are 10 to 50 km, as found elsewhere. As noted in previous work, the majority of crustal earthquakes occur in the Eastern Cordillera and foreland regions of the central Andes, although a few normal and strike-slip earthquakes occur beneath the Altiplano plateau and in the forearc in southern Peru and northernmost Chile. We propose a new interpretation of one of the basement thrusts (Shira Mountain, Peru) as a pop up block on the basis of our new earthquake depths. We confirm that earthquakes in the flat slab areas of Peru and Argentina are within the sometimes aseismic lower crust. Lower crustal earthquakes are globally found in all types of tectonic settings only when the thermal lithosphere is more than 80 km thick and the amount of recent shortening/extension is <30%.

This new approach is based on both Fair function minimization and on stochastic optimization modeling. The validity of this interpretative approach is demonstrated through studying and analyzing two synthetic gravity anomalies, using simulated data generated from a known model with different random noises components and a known statistical distribution. Being theoretically proven, this new approach has been applied on three real field gravity anomalies from Sweden, Senegal and the United States. The agreement between the results obtained by the proposed method and those obtained by other interpretation methods is good and comparable.

Monitored dose data in the medical institution in Ghana from the Radiation Protection Institute's database were extracted and analysed in terms of three categories: diagnostic radiology, radiotherapy and nuclear medicine. One hundred and eighty medical facilities were monitored for the 10-y period, out of which similar to 98 % were diagnostic radiology facilities. Only one nuclear medicine and two radiotherapy facilities have been operational in the country since 2000. During the 10-y study period, monitored medical facilities increased by 18.8 %, while the exposed workers decreased by 23.0 %. Average exposed worker per entire medical institution for the 10-y study period was 4.3. Annual collective dose received by all the exposed workers reduced by a factor of 4 between 2000 and 2009. This is seen as reduction in annual collective doses in diagnostic radiology, radiotherapy and nuclear medicine facilities by similar to 76, similar to 72 and similar to 55 %, respectively, for the 10-y period. Highest annual collective dose of 601.2 man mSv was recorded in 2002 and the least of 142.6 man mSv was recorded in 2009. Annual average values for dose per institution and dose per exposed worker decreased by 79 and 67.6 %, respectively between 2000 and 2009. Average dose per exposed worker for the 10-y period was least in radiotherapy and highest in diagnostic radiology with values 0.14 and 1.05 mSv, respectively. Nuclear medicine however recorded average dose per worker of 0.72 mSv. Correspondingly, range of average effective doses within the diagnostic radiology, radiotherapy and nuclear medicine facilities were 0.328-2.614, 0.383-0.728 and 0.448-0.695 mSv, respectively. Throughout the study period, an average dose per medical institution of 3 mSv and an average dose per exposed worker of 0.69 mSv were realised. Exposed workers in diagnostic radiology primarily received most of the individual annual doses >1 mSv. The entire study period had 705 instances in which exposed workers received individual annual doses >1 mSv. On thermoluminescent dosemeter (TLD) return rates, facilities in Volta and Eastern Regions recorded highest return rates of 94.3 % each. Ashanti Region recorded the least TLD return rate with 76.7 %.

Dose rate at selected critical positions were calculated for the old and new sources. Dose rate measurements were also performed at these critical locations for the new source. The dose rates at all the critical locations of the public and staff access areas were within the recommended dose rate limit of 0.5 and 7.5 mu Sv h-1 for the public and controlled area, respectively. The concrete biological shielding at the facility at the moment is adequate enough to attenuate the gamma photons from the new 222 TBq 60Co source. High dose rates were recorded at the entrance to the treatment room, it is therefore recommended that optimisation of procedures should be encouraged to restrict activities in this area.

[Part 5 of 5] T2 - WILLIAM STATES LEE III NUCLEAR STATION UNITS 1 AND 2, APPLICATION FOR COMBINED LICENSES, CHEROKEE COUNTY, SOUTH CAROLINA. AN - 963637252; 15179-3_0005 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of combined licenses for the construction and operation of two new nuclear power reactors at the William States Lee III Nuclear Station (Lee Nuclear Station) site in Cherokee County, South Carolina is proposed. Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (Duke) submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on December 12, 2007 for Lee Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2. This application was revised and a supplement describing Dukes plans to construct and operate a supplemental cooling water reservoir was submitted on September 24, 2009. The 1,900-acre site proposed for the two new nuclear units is the unfinished Cherokee Nuclear Station, located 40 miles southwest of Charlotte, 25 miles northeast of Spartanburg, and eight miles southeast of Gaffney. Duke would reactivate the 6.8-mile-long railroad spur from near Gaffney to the site for construction purposes. Lee Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2 would have a design site grade of 590 feet above mean sea level. The containment vessel, shield building, and auxiliary building would make up the nuclear island, which is one of the principal structures of the standard Westinghouse Advanced Passive 1000 (AP1000) pressurized water reactor design. Each AP1000 reactor would be connected to two steam generators to drive turbines, thereby creating electricity. The AP1000 design is rated at 3,400 megawatts (MW) thermal, with a design gross-electrical output of 1,200 MW. The expected net electrical output for each unit would be 1,117 MW. The cooling system for Units 1 and 2 would include three constructed impoundments: Make-Up Pond A and Make-Up Pond B, which presently exist on the Lee Nuclear Station site, and Make-Up Pond C, which would be built on the London Creek watershed to the northwest of the Lee Nuclear Station site. Makeup water from the Broad River would be provided to the plant via Make-Up Pond A. During periods of low flow when withdrawals from the Broad River are limited, makeup water would be provided from Make-Up Ponds B and C to Make-Up Pond A. A portion of the makeup water would be returned to the Broad River via a discharge structure on the upstream side of Ninety-Nine Islands Dam. The remaining portion of the water would be released to the atmosphere via evaporative cooling through mechanical draft cooling towers. Two new transmission-line corridors, each containing one 230-kilovolt (kV) and one 525-kV transmission line, are also proposed. Liquid, gaseous, and solid radioactive waste management systems would be used to collect and treat the radioactive materials produced as byproducts of operating Lee Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this draft EIS considers energy source alternatives, alternative sites, system design alternatives, and on-site alternatives to reduce impacts on natural and cultural resources. The preliminary recommendation of NRC staff is that the operating licenses be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed units would provide for additional baseload electrical generating capacity in 2021 and 2023 within the service territories of Duke. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would affect surface water and underlying aquifers, including the Broad River and Ninety-Nine Islands Reservoir, London Creek and its tributaries. Development of Make-Up Pond C would permanently inundate 620 acres, displace 260 acres of farmland, and require the purchase and demolition of 86 privately-owned residences. Proposed transmission lines would convert 690 acres of forest land to cleared corridors and displace 163 acres of farmland and 16.8 acres of wetlands and streams. A total of 1,115 acres of various habitat types would incur permanent and temporary loss and alteration. Construction and preconstruction traffic impacts would be noticeable, particularly on McKowns Mountain Road.

AN - 963636649; 15179-3_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of combined licenses for the construction and operation of two new nuclear power reactors at the William States Lee III Nuclear Station (Lee Nuclear Station) site in Cherokee County, South Carolina is proposed. Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (Duke) submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on December 12, 2007 for Lee Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2. This application was revised and a supplement describing Dukes plans to construct and operate a supplemental cooling water reservoir was submitted on September 24, 2009. The 1,900-acre site proposed for the two new nuclear units is the unfinished Cherokee Nuclear Station, located 40 miles southwest of Charlotte, 25 miles northeast of Spartanburg, and eight miles southeast of Gaffney. Duke would reactivate the 6.8-mile-long railroad spur from near Gaffney to the site for construction purposes. Lee Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2 would have a design site grade of 590 feet above mean sea level. The containment vessel, shield building, and auxiliary building would make up the nuclear island, which is one of the principal structures of the standard Westinghouse Advanced Passive 1000 (AP1000) pressurized water reactor design. Each AP1000 reactor would be connected to two steam generators to drive turbines, thereby creating electricity. The AP1000 design is rated at 3,400 megawatts (MW) thermal, with a design gross-electrical output of 1,200 MW. The expected net electrical output for each unit would be 1,117 MW. The cooling system for Units 1 and 2 would include three constructed impoundments: Make-Up Pond A and Make-Up Pond B, which presently exist on the Lee Nuclear Station site, and Make-Up Pond C, which would be built on the London Creek watershed to the northwest of the Lee Nuclear Station site. Makeup water from the Broad River would be provided to the plant via Make-Up Pond A. During periods of low flow when withdrawals from the Broad River are limited, makeup water would be provided from Make-Up Ponds B and C to Make-Up Pond A. A portion of the makeup water would be returned to the Broad River via a discharge structure on the upstream side of Ninety-Nine Islands Dam. The remaining portion of the water would be released to the atmosphere via evaporative cooling through mechanical draft cooling towers. Two new transmission-line corridors, each containing one 230-kilovolt (kV) and one 525-kV transmission line, are also proposed. Liquid, gaseous, and solid radioactive waste management systems would be used to collect and treat the radioactive materials produced as byproducts of operating Lee Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this draft EIS considers energy source alternatives, alternative sites, system design alternatives, and on-site alternatives to reduce impacts on natural and cultural resources. The preliminary recommendation of NRC staff is that the operating licenses be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed units would provide for additional baseload electrical generating capacity in 2021 and 2023 within the service territories of Duke. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would affect surface water and underlying aquifers, including the Broad River and Ninety-Nine Islands Reservoir, London Creek and its tributaries. Development of Make-Up Pond C would permanently inundate 620 acres, displace 260 acres of farmland, and require the purchase and demolition of 86 privately-owned residences. Proposed transmission lines would convert 690 acres of forest land to cleared corridors and displace 163 acres of farmland and 16.8 acres of wetlands and streams. A total of 1,115 acres of various habitat types would incur permanent and temporary loss and alteration. Construction and preconstruction traffic impacts would be noticeable, particularly on McKowns Mountain Road.

The concrete used for the ceiling construction was found to have optimum shielding properties with 0.182cm super(-1)(or equivalently 0.0859cm2g super(-1)) for the linear (mass) attenuation coefficient [L(M)AC]. In addition gamma radiation is attenuated by 73.221% on average, while the blocks used for the walls have smaller LACs (0.082cm super(-1) for the bare blocks, and 0.118cm super(-1) for the coated ones). Although the LACs for the blocks are smaller than those for the concrete their shielding properties are good to protect from the gamma radiations coming from radioactive or nuclear accidents (78.630% attenuation), even Chernobyl - like disasters, because of their big width (10-12cm). The LACs were measured by an ionization chamber and simple theoretical calculations have been made to predict the concrete LACs. The calculations showed an average LAC for the six samples equal to 0.1664cm super(-1) with 8.47% error with respect to the experimental values. The average LAC for the concrete used for ceiling construction in the CRS was found to be comparable or even better than the average of some international values for the reactor shielding concretes, which are about 0.163cm super(-1).

Few of them are point measurements, and others are inferred from surface array observations. More than twenty high resolution strong motion downhole vertical arrays were installed in California with primary goal to study site response of different geologic structure to strong earthquake motion. Data recorded at those arrays during a number of recent earthquakes provide an opportunity to calculate rotational component of the ground motion, and apparently were not previously used for this purpose. In this paper rotations and rotation rates were inferred from downhole array records of the Mw 6.0 Parkfield 2004, the Mw 7.2 Sierra El Mayor (Mexico) 2010 and the two smaller earthquakes in California (Table 1). Highest amplitudes of short duration rotations and rotation rates of 3.8E-04 rad and 1.1E-02 rad/sec associated with the S-wave were observed at a very close epicentral distance of 4.3 km from the ML 4.2 event in Southern California at the La Cienega array (Fig. 1). In contrast, large magnitude Sierra El Mayor earthquake produced very long duration rotational motions of up to 3.0E-04 rad and 4.1E-03 rad/sec associated with shear and surface waves at the El Centro array. High dynamic range instrumentation is necessary for reliable calculation of rotations from array data. Data from dense Treasure Island array near San Francisco demonstrate consistent change of shape of rotational motion with depth and material. In the frequency range of 1-15 Hz Fourier amplitude spectrum of vertical ground velocity is similar to the scaled tilt spectrum. Amplitudes of rotations at the site depend upon the size of the base and usually decrease with depth. They are also amplified by soft material.

To normalize the MCNP4C result to the steady state nominal thermal power, the appropriate scaling factor was defined to calculate the power distribution precisely. The maximum power of the individual rod was found in the fuel ring number 2 and was found to be 105W. The minimum power was found in the fuel ring number 9 and was 79.9W. The total power in the total fuel rods was 30.9kW. This result agrees very well with nominal power reported in the reactor safety analysis report which equals 30kW. Finally, the peak power factors, which are defined as the ratios between the maximum to the average and the maximum to the minimum powers were calculated to be 1.18 and 1.31 respectively.

The model comparison and discrimination can be improved if additional observations will be included. The objective of this work was to implement and to test a Bayesian method for the sequential design of the network augmentation. The method is based on (1) generalization of Kullback's discriminant function and "weights of evidence" for the case of available prior probabilities, (2) ensemble modeling to estimate variance of the predicted values. The method was tested with the data from the tracer experiment at the USDA-ARS OPE3 integrated research site. A pulse of KCL solution was applied to an irrigation plot, and chloride concentrations were measured in the groundwater at three sampling depths in 12 observations wells. The spatial distribution of soil materials was obtained from cores taken from depths of 0-200 cm with 20 cm increment during installation of observation wells. A three-dimension flow and transport model was developed to simulate the flow and chloride transport for the tracer experiment at the OPE3 site. The manual calibration of hydraulic conductivities and dispersivities was performed, and pedotransfer functions were conditioned to calibration results to build ensemble of models. The search of the optimal location of the augmentation wells was done on a 2D grid. Models of different complexity were compared. Both single and multiple responses were used to discriminate models.

These have included non-destructive testing (NDT) methods such as photomodeling, and potentially destructive testing (PDT) such as forced tilt tests. PDT methods usually have the potential of damaging or disturbing the rock or its pedestal so that the PBR usefulness for future generations is compromised. To date we have force-tilt tested approximately 28 PBRs, and of these we believe 7 have been compromised. We suggest here that given other inherent uncertainties in the current methodologies, NDT methods are now sufficiently advanced as to be adequate for the current state of the art use for comparison with Ground Motion Prediction Equations (GMPEs) and seismic hazard maps (SHMs). Here we compare tilt-test static toppling estimates to three non-destructive methods: (1) 3-D photographic modeling (2) profile analysis assuming the rock is 2-D, and (3) expert judgments from photographs. 3-D modeling uses the commercial Photomodeler program and photographs in the field taken from numerous directions around the rock. The output polyhedral shape is analyzed in Matlab determine the center of mass and in Autocad to estimate the static overturning angle alpha. For the 2-D method we chose the photograph in profile looking perpendicular to the estimated direction of toppling. The rock is outlined as a 2-D object in Matlab. Rock dimensions, rocking points, and a vertical reference are supplied by the photo analyst to estimate the center of gravity and static force overturning angles. For the expert opinion method we used additional photographs taken from different directions to improve the estimates of the center of mass and the rocking points. We used 7 rocks for comparisons. The error in estimating tan alpha from 3-D modeling is about 0.05. For 2-D estimates an average error is about 0.1 (?). For expert opinion estimates the error is about 0.06. For individual rocks the uncertainties may be reduced with more extensive study. The one case (*) where tilt-testing differs materially from 3-D is because an irregular base on the rock allowed the rock to begin to tilt at a lower angle onto a second rocking point with higher alpha. 2-D methods perform well enough to use as a screening method for the larger archive, and reserve the more accurate photographic analyses for the rocks deemed most important. The table below gives a list of the tan alpha data:Tilt vs. NDT Tan(alpha) values ...

Specifically, NAC requested changes to revise: TS 3.3.2 to reduce the transportable storage canister removable surface contamination limits; TS 4.1.1 to add various boron-10 areal densities for use with Pressurized Water Reactor and Boiling Water Reactor baskets and to replace the fuel tube orthogonal pitch with the minimum fuel tube outer diagonal dimension; Table 2.1-2, "ASME Code Alternatives for MAGNASTOR(R) components," of the Final Safety Analysis Report to correct the code reference; and Appendices A and B of the TSs to make editorial corrections.

[Part 2 of 2] T2 - OPERATION OF WATTS BAR NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 2, RHEA COUNTY, TENNESSEE (SECOND DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JUNE 1978). AN - 917565138; 15137-0_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a 40-year operating license to the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) for a second light-water nuclear reactor at the Watts Bar Nuclear (WBN) Plant on the Tennessee River in Rhea County, Tennessee is proposed. In 1978, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued a final EIS related to the operating license for WBN Units 1 and 2. After construction delays, a license was issued for WBN Unit 1 in early 1996 and the reactor is currently operating. On March 4, 2009, the NRC received an update to the application from the TVA for a facility operating license to possess, use, and operate WBN Unit 2. The plant site occupies 1,055 acres within the 1,700-acre Watts Bar Reservation on the west bank of the Chickamauga Reservoir. Chattanooga is 60 miles to the southwest and Knoxville is 60 miles to the northeast. The WBN site consists of two reactor containment buildings, a diesel generator building, a training facility, a turbine building, a service building, an intake pumping station, a water-treatment plant, two cooling towers, 500-kilovolt (kV) and 161-kV switchyards, and associated parking facilities. WBN Unit 2 would use structures that already exist and most of the work required to complete Unit 2 would be inside of those buildings. The unit would employ a four-loop pressurized water reactor nuclear steam supply system using the Westinghouse Electric Corporation design. Reactor generated heat would be used to produce steam to drive turbines, providing 1,160 megawatts of electricity. WBN Unit 1 uses a closed-cycle system with natural-draft wet-cooling towers and a supplemental cooling system. WBN Unit 2 would use the same system which takes Tennessee River water from the Chickamauga Reservoir. WBN Units 1 and 2 would also share radioactive waste management systems. In addition to the proposed action, this draft supplement considers a No Action Alternative and alternative energy sources. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The facility would supply additional needed electrical power to the Tennessee Valley. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Completing Unit 2 would result in some additional ground-disturbing activities, but these would be largely restricted to the existing disturbed portion of the property. Overall impacts on aquatic biota from impingement and entrainment at the cooling water systems intakes and from thermal, physical, and chemical discharges are expected to be small. Studies indicate that impingement has affected only small numbers of fish, with the exception of threadfin shad. LEGAL MANDATES: Atomic Energy Act of 1954 , as amended (42 U.S.C. 200 et seq.) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR, Part 54). PRIOR REFERENCES: For the abstracts of the original draft and final EISs, see 78-0934D, Volume 2, Number 9, and 79-0327F, Volume 3, Number 4, respectively.

However, the study of the effect of each parameter separately, was possible only through Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, as in clinical practice many of those parameters change simultaneously. The influence of the protective equipment, the beam projections, the beam quality, the field size and the position of the operator according to the position of access of the catheter was investigated, using anthropomorphic phantoms in setups that represent realistic IR/IC procedures. The proper use of protective shields was found to be the most important way of reducing extremity and eye lens exposure during such examinations. Ceiling suspended shields can reduce the doses to the eye lenses up to 97%, but they can also reduce hand doses about 70% when placed correctly. The highest exposure to the operator is observed for left anterior oblique (LAO) and cranial projections. Additionally, for overcouch irradiations the eyes and the hands are about 6 times more exposed compared to the cases where the tube is below the operating table. For the lateral LAO projection, placing the ceiling suspended shield at the left side of the operator is twice more effective for the protection of the eyes compared to the cases where it is placed above the patient. Finally, beam collimation was found to play an important role in the reduction of the hands and wrists doses, especially when the operator is close to the irradiation field.

Within the project, coordinated measurements were performed in 34 hospitals in 6 European countries. Furthermore, simulations of the most representative workplaces in IR and IC were performed to determine the main parameters that influence the extremity and eye lens doses. The work presented in this paper shows the recommendations that were formulated by the results obtained from both measurements and simulations. The presented guidelines are directed to operators, assistant personnel, radiation protection officers and medical physics experts. They concern radiation protection issues, such as the use of room protective equipment, as well as the positioning of the extremity and eye lens dosemeters for routine monitoring.

The survey involved various geophysical methods including a superficial electromagnetic (EM), an electrical sounding (ES) and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). Special considerations were focused on the lake of the dam, which is currently suffering serious water infiltration and leakage through its bedrocks. The application of the ERT technique was more effective and convenient. The analysis of the integrated results of the above mentioned methods revealed a vertical serious leakage which could take place in certain locations via fractures and faults that hit the main valley and pass through the dam lake. Additionally, the presence of an alternating lithological heterogeneity between permeable and impermeable layers may lead to infiltration through the geological formations of the basin. These processes are most likely causing hydraulic connections between the Neogene superficial deposits and the underlying Cretaceous fractured and karstified carbonates rocks. Consequently, such hydraulic connections may lead to water losses and leakage throughout the dam basin. Eventually, the presence of tens of drilled wells which penetrate the Neogene and Cretaceous formations, and the existence of numerous archeological graves and subsurface tunnels complicate the situation in the study area and cause more water leakage.

AN - 900630809; 21840244 AB - Given the clinical relevance of locoregional recurrences in head and neck cancer, we developed a novel experimental model of premalignant tissue in the hamster cheek pouch for long-term studies and demonstrated the partial inhibitory effect of a single application of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) on tumor development from premalignant tissue. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of a double application of BNCT with a 6 week interval in terms of inhibitory effect on tumor development, toxicity and DNA synthesis. We performed a double application, 6 weeks apart, of (1) BNCT mediated by boronophenylalanine (BPA-BNCT); (2) BNCT mediated by the combined application of decahydrodecaborate (GB-10) and BPA [(GB-10+BPA)-BNCT] or (3) beam-only, at RA-3 nuclear reactor and followed the animals for 8 months. The control group was cancerized and sham-irradiated. BPA-BNCT, (GB-10+BPA)-BNCT and beam-only induced a reduction in tumor development from premalignant tissue that persisted until 8, 3, and 2 months respectively. An early maximum inhibition of 100% was observed for all 3 protocols. No normal tissue radiotoxicity was detected. Reversible mucositis was observed in premalignant tissue, peaking at 1 week and resolving by the third week after each irradiation. Mucositis after the second application was not exacerbated by the first application. DNA synthesis was significantly reduced in premalignant tissue 8 months post-BNCT. A double application of BPA-BNCT and (GB-10+BPA)-BNCT, 6 weeks apart, could be used therapeutically at no additional cost in terms of radiotoxicity in normal and dose-limiting tissues.

[Part 1 of 5] T2 - ENRICO FERMI NUCLEAR POWER PLANT UNIT 3, APPLICATION FOR COMBINED LICENSE, MONROE COUNTY, MICHIGAN. AN - 922529306; 15121-4_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a combined license for the construction and operation of a new nuclear power reactor at the Detroit Edison Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant (Fermi) in Monroe County, Michigan is proposed. Detroit Edison, a wholly-owned subsidiary of DTE Energy, submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on September 18, 2008 for Fermi Unit 3. The proposed site is located on the western shore of Lake Erie approximately 30 miles southwest of Detroit, Michigan, and seven miles from the United States-Canada international border. The proposed Fermi Unit 3 and associated facilities would be completely within the confines of the current 1,260-acre Fermi site, and would be located adjacent to the existing Fermi Unit 2. Fermi Unit 1, also on the site, is in the process of being decommissioned. Fermi Unit 3 would utilize an Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR) designed by GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas, LLC. The ESBWR design is a single-cycle, natural circulation, boiling water reactor, and has passive safety features. The reactor is rated at 4,500 megawatts (MW) thermal, with a design gross electrical output of approximately 1,605 MW electrical and a net output of 1,535 MW electrical. The normal power heat sink for Fermi 3 would be provided by an additional concrete natural draft cooling tower. Water from Lake Erie would be used for makeup water for the circulating water system, the plant service water system, and the fire protection system. The intake for Fermi 3 would be adjacent to the existing intake for Fermi 2 and an offshore underwater discharge pipe would serve as the outfall from the Fermi 3 water systems. The proposed natural draft cooling tower for Fermi 3 would be located to the southwest of the two existing Fermi 2 cooling towers. Some of the existing infrastructure on the Fermi site would be modified to integrate Fermi 3 with Fermi 2. None of the Fermi 2 structures or facilities that directly support power generation at that unit would be shared. The electrical switchyard for Fermi 3 would be separate from the existing Fermi 2 switchyard, but the transmission lines from the two switchyards would share common transmission towers as the lines leave the site. Three new 345-kilovolt transmission lines are proposed and would extend offsite along a 29.5-mile route in Monroe, southwest Wayne County, and southeast Washtenaw County. Approximately 10.8 miles of the corridor would be sited along new undeveloped right-of-way. Liquid, gaseous, and solid radioactive waste management systems would be used to collect and treat the radioactive materials produced as byproducts of operating Fermi 3. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this draft EIS considers energy source alternatives, system design alternatives, four alternative sites, and alternatives related to the location of proposed facilities on the Fermi site. The preliminary recommendation of NRC staff is that the operating licenses be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would provide for additional large baseload electrical generating capacity to address Michigans expected future peak electric demand. Economic impacts would benefit local economies, particularly Monroe County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would disturb 34.5 acres of wetlands and 5.2 acres of open water, and 8.3 acres of wetlands would be permanently lost. Approximately 10 acres of prime farmland would be permanently occupied. The Fermi 3 project footprint would encroach into a portion of the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge. Some dredging in Lake Erie would be needed to accommodate movement of equipment and components by barge. The estimated peak construction workforce of 2,900 would have a temporary adverse impact on traffic on local roadways.

AN - 916687481; 15121-4_0005 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a combined license for the construction and operation of a new nuclear power reactor at the Detroit Edison Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant (Fermi) in Monroe County, Michigan is proposed. Detroit Edison, a wholly-owned subsidiary of DTE Energy, submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on September 18, 2008 for Fermi Unit 3. The proposed site is located on the western shore of Lake Erie approximately 30 miles southwest of Detroit, Michigan, and seven miles from the United States-Canada international border. The proposed Fermi Unit 3 and associated facilities would be completely within the confines of the current 1,260-acre Fermi site, and would be located adjacent to the existing Fermi Unit 2. Fermi Unit 1, also on the site, is in the process of being decommissioned. Fermi Unit 3 would utilize an Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR) designed by GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas, LLC. The ESBWR design is a single-cycle, natural circulation, boiling water reactor, and has passive safety features. The reactor is rated at 4,500 megawatts (MW) thermal, with a design gross electrical output of approximately 1,605 MW electrical and a net output of 1,535 MW electrical. The normal power heat sink for Fermi 3 would be provided by an additional concrete natural draft cooling tower. Water from Lake Erie would be used for makeup water for the circulating water system, the plant service water system, and the fire protection system. The intake for Fermi 3 would be adjacent to the existing intake for Fermi 2 and an offshore underwater discharge pipe would serve as the outfall from the Fermi 3 water systems. The proposed natural draft cooling tower for Fermi 3 would be located to the southwest of the two existing Fermi 2 cooling towers. Some of the existing infrastructure on the Fermi site would be modified to integrate Fermi 3 with Fermi 2.

Approximately 10.8 miles of the corridor would be sited along new undeveloped right-of-way. Liquid, gaseous, and solid radioactive waste management systems would be used to collect and treat the radioactive materials produced as byproducts of operating Fermi 3. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this draft EIS considers energy source alternatives, system design alternatives, four alternative sites, and alternatives related to the location of proposed facilities on the Fermi site. The preliminary recommendation of NRC staff is that the operating licenses be issued as requested.

Water from Lake Erie would be used for makeup water for the circulating water system, the plant service water system, and the fire protection system. The intake for Fermi 3 would be adjacent to the existing intake for Fermi 2 and an offshore underwater discharge pipe would serve as the outfall from the Fermi 3 water systems. The proposed natural draft cooling tower for Fermi 3 would be located to the southwest of the two existing Fermi 2 cooling towers. Some of the existing infrastructure on the Fermi site would be modified to integrate Fermi 3 with Fermi 2. None of the Fermi 2 structures or facilities that directly support power generation at that unit would be shared. The electrical switchyard for Fermi 3 would be separate from the existing Fermi 2 switchyard, but the transmission lines from the two switchyards would share common transmission towers as the lines leave the site. Three new 345-kilovolt transmission lines are proposed and would extend offsite along a 29.5-mile route in Monroe, southwest Wayne County, and southeast Washtenaw County. Approximately 10.8 miles of the corridor would be sited along new undeveloped right-of-way. Liquid, gaseous, and solid radioactive waste management systems would be used to collect and treat the radioactive materials produced as byproducts of operating Fermi 3. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this draft EIS considers energy source alternatives, system design alternatives, four alternative sites, and alternatives related to the location of proposed facilities on the Fermi site. The preliminary recommendation of NRC staff is that the operating licenses be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would provide for additional large baseload electrical generating capacity to address Michigans expected future peak electric demand. Economic impacts would benefit local economies, particularly Monroe County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would disturb 34.5 acres of wetlands and 5.2 acres of open water, and 8.3 acres of wetlands would be permanently lost. Approximately 10 acres of prime farmland would be permanently occupied. The Fermi 3 project footprint would encroach into a portion of the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge. Some dredging in Lake Erie would be needed to accommodate movement of equipment and components by barge. The estimated peak construction workforce of 2,900 would have a temporary adverse impact on traffic on local roadways.

To increase agricultural produce, various forms of pesticides are normally used in fruits and vegetable farming. The consequence is that several cases of pesticide poisoning have been observed. In this preliminary study, a field survey was carried out to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and peoples' perception concerning the use of pesticides by farmers in fruit production. The residual concentrations of selected pesticides in pawpaw, imported apples and tomato samples and the potential health risks associated with the exposure to these pesticides were also assessed. The field survey data indicated that more than 70% of the participants reported one or more poisoning upon fruits consumption resulting in pesticide-related illnesses. Pesticide residues in the various environmental samples were determined by gas chromatography with electron capture detector (GC-ECD). The results showed that, the levels of pesticide residues varied from 0.01 [micro]g/g to as high as 0.11 [micro]g/g depending on the pesticide monitored. The analysis of health risk estimates revealed heptachlor, heptachlor epoxide, endrin aldehyde, and endrin ketone levels exceeded the reference dose, suggesting a great potential for systemic toxicity in children considered the most vulnerable population subgroup. Lastly, the public is in the know of pesticide residues in fruits and calls for the curtailing of pesticide use on fruits and vegetable production via educational programmes for farmers on control and safer use of pesticides. Selected pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables and peoples' awareness were investigated. Pesticides were present in fruits and vegetables. The survey revealed more than 70 % of the participants complained poisoning on eating fruits. The public is in the know of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables. Children the most vulnerable part of the population was at risk with some pesticides.

Ewes were divided into two groups: treated (T) and untreated (C). Ewes in the T group were treated with flugestone acetate for 14 days and injected intramuscularly at sponge withdrawal with 500 IU of equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG). Results indicated that ewes in the T group exhibited oestrus and were mated within 5 days post sponge removal compared to 11 days for ewes in the C group, and the difference in oestrus response between the two groups was significant (P0.05) effect on the lamb birth weight. However, significant (P<0.001) differences in the lamb birth weight were observed between singles and multiple births. In the treated ewes, the total number of lambs born was 211-157 parturitions, and the multiple birth rate reached 27.4%, whereas the rate in the untreated group was 6.3% with the difference being significant (P<0.05). In the untreated ewes, the total number of lambs born was 14-13 parturitions (12 singles and 1 twin). Fecundity rates were 135.1% and 106.3% in the treated and untreated ewes, respectively, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). Repeated administration of eCG had no negative effect on fertility of Syrian Awassi ewes. However, anti-eCG antibodies were produced following eCG injections with extremely high individual differences in the immune response among ewes.

The proposed method is based on Fair function minimization and also on stochastic optimization modeling. This new technique was firstly tested on a theoretical synthetic data randomly generated by a chosen statistical distribution from a known model with different random noises components. This mathematical simulation shows a very close agreement between the assumed and the estimated parameters. The applicability and validity of this method are thereafter applied to magnetic anomaly data taken from United States, Australia, India, and Brazil. The agreement between the results obtained by the new method and those obtained by other interpretative methods is good and comparable.

The study assessed the environmental pollution situation and evaluated their sources and distribution of these metals. The total concentrations of Al, As, Cd, and Hg were determined by the neutron activation analysis technique. Water and sediment samples were collected from the Benya, Fosu, and Narkwa lagoons in the Central Region and from the Pra estuary in the western part of Ghana. Some indices, such as contamination factor, pollution-load index, contamination degree, and geoaccumulation index, were used to assess eco-environmental quality of the sampling sites. The analysis indicated that the Fosu lagoon was fairly polluted with Cd. The investigation indicated a highly localized distribution pattern closely associated with the two pollution sources (garbage/solid waste dumps and industrial activities) along the coastal belt. The resulting environmental deterioration required a concerted evaluative effort by all stakeholders.

The SAR is a part of the application required by Title 10, Part 52, of the Code of Federal Regulations, which is docketed to support public hearings related to site suitability. Information in SAR Chapter 2.5 is derived from field studies and literature surveys performed by the applicant to characterize the site region (a 200-mi radius around the site), site vicinity (25-mi radius), site area (5-mi radius), and site location (0.6 mi radius). This information includes discussions of basic geologic and seismic characteristics; potential for surface tectonic and non-tectonic deformation at the site location; tectonic structures and liquefaction features that may indicate a seismic hazard for the site; and geotechnical engineering properties of rock and soils at the site that may affect site suitability. As part of the detailed technical evaluation of SAR Chapter 2.5, NRC geologists submit requests for additional information to the applicant to clarify data presented in Chapter 2.5; independently review pertinent literature; and conduct site audits to examine geologic features revealed by outcrops, surface and subsurface geophysical tests, and borehole data. The NRC presents the results of the evaluation in a Safety Evaluation Report (SER), and NRC geologists must defend the conclusions provided in the SER during the public hearings on site suitability before a construction license can be granted to the applicant. The NRC also requires the applicant to geologically map rock units exposed in the walls and floor of excavations for safety-related structures. NRC geologists examine the maps and the excavation exposures to determine that no capable tectonic structures or other potentially detrimental geologic features occur in the rock units that underlie the nuclear island. This series of actions by NRC geologists clearly illustrate the importance of geology in the regulatory review process for ensuring the protection of public health and safety and the environment.

Because the reactor water environment has a significant impact on the fatigue life of components, many license renewal applicants have performed supplemental detailed analyses to demonstrate acceptable fatigue life for these components. Because of these concerns, the applicant for the AP1000 design certification elected to remove the use of this computer software package from its design certification document, such that it is not used in the design for the AP1000, as documented in ADAMS Accession No. JF - Nuclear Regulatory Commission Documents and Publications Y1 - 2011/09/30/ PY - 2011 DA - 2011 Sep 30 CY - Lanham PB - Federal Information & News Dispatch, Inc.

AN - 893256341 AB - The petitioner requests that the NRC amend its regulations to require emergency preparedness (EP) enhancements for prolonged station blackouts; EP enhancements for multiunit events; licensees to confirm seismic hazards and flooding hazards every 10 years and address any new and significant information; licensees to improve spent nuclear fuel pool safety; each operating and new reactor licensee to establish station blackout mitigation strategies and resources; and more realistic, hands-on training and exercises on Severe Accident Mitigation [sic] Guidelines and Extreme Damage Mitigation Guidelines for specified licensee staff. [PRM-50-100] The petitioner requests that the NRC institute a rulemaking proceeding applicable to nuclear facilities licensed under 10 CFR parts 50, 52, and other applicable regulations to require licensees to (1) Provide sufficient safety-related instrumentation, able to withstand design-basis natural phenomena, to monitor key spent fuel pool parameters (i.e., water level, temperature, and area radiation levels) from the control room; (2) provide safety-related AC electrical power for the spent fuel pool makeup system; (3) revise their technical specifications to address requirements to have one train of onsite emergency electrical power operable for spent fuel pool makeup and spent fuel pool instrumentation when there is irradiated fuel in the spent fuel pool, regardless of the operational mode of the reactor; and (4) have an installed seismically qualified means to spray water into the spent fuel pools, including an easily accessible connection to supply the water (e.g., using a portable pump or pumper truck) at grade outside the building.

Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit 1; Exemption AN - 887810811 AB - [...] the licensee requested an exemption that would allow the use of Optimized ZIRLOTM fuel rod cladding at CNP-1. 3.0 Discussion Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, the Commission may, upon application by any interested person or upon its own initiative, grant exemptions from the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50 (1) when the exemptions are authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to public health or safety, and are consistent with the common defense and security; and (2) when special circumstances are present. 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.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION, BENTON COUNTY, WASHINGTON (FORTY-SEVENTH DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 897341362; 15045-7_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the operating license for the Columbia Generating Plant (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 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 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 a 1,089-acre site leased to Energy Northwest by the Department of Energy (DOE) within the 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. 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 and is designated a BWR/5 reactor. 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 completely encloses the primary containment, and 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 (MWt). The net and gross electrical power outputs are 1,190 and 1,230 megawatts-electric (MWe), respectively. The CGS 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 about 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 about 17,000 gallons per minute. In addition to the proposed license renewal, alternative methods of power generation and a No Action alternative are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. 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 preliminary recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for CGS are not great enough to deny the option of license renewal. 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 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 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.

Direct gamma spectrometry and neutron activation analysis techniques were used to analyse soil, rock, water and dust samples from the mining environment. The mean activity concentrations measured for super(238)U, super(232)Th and super(40)K in the soil/rock samples were 15.2, 26.9 and 157.1 Bq kg super(-1), respectively. For the water samples, the mean activity concentrations were 0.54 and 0.41 Bq l super(-1)) and 7.76 Bq l super(-1) for super(226)Ra, super(232)Th and super(40)K, respectively. The mean activity concentrations measured in the dust samples were 4.90 and 2.75 mu Bq m super(-3) for super(238)U and super(232)Th, respectively. The total annual effective dose to the public was estimated to be 0.69 mSv. The results in this study compared well with typical world average values. The results indicate an insignificant exposure of the public from the activities of the Goldmine.

N1 - Last updated - 2011-09-01 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Radiological impacts of phosphogypsum AN - 877840839; 4215051 AB - This study was carried out to assess the radiological impact of Syrian phosphogypsum (PG) piles in the compartments of the surrounding ecosystem. Estimating the distribution of naturally occurring radionuclides (i.e. 226Ra, 238U, 232Th, 210Po and 210Pb) in the raw materials, product and by-product of the Syrian phosphate fertilizer industry was essential. The data revealed that the concentrations of the radionuclides were enhanced in the treated phosphate ore. In PG, 226Ra content had a mean activity of 318Bqkg-1. The uranium content in PG was low, ca. 33Bqkg-1, because uranium remained in the phosphoric acid produced. Over 80% of 232Th, 210Po and 210Pb present partitioned in PG. The presence of PG piles did not increase significantly the concentration of 222Rn or gamma rays exposure dose in the area studied. The annual effective dose was only 0.082mSvy-1. The geometric mean of total suspended air particulates (TSP) ca. 85@mgm-3. The activity concentration of the radionuclides in filtrates and runoff waters were below the detection limits (ca. 0.15mBqL-1 for 238U, 0.1mBqL-1 for 232Th and 0.18mBqL-1 for both of 210Po and 210Pb); the concentration of the radionuclides in ground water samples and Qattina Lake were less than the permissible limits set for drinking water by the World Health Organisation, WHO, (10, 1 and 0.1Bq L-1 for 238U, 232Th and both of 210Po and 210Pb, respectively). Eastern sites soil samples of PG piles recorded the highest activity concentrations, i.e. 26, 33, 28, 61 and 40Bqkg-1 for 226Ra, 238U, 232Th, 210Po and 210Pb, respectively, due to the prevailing western and north-western wind in the area, but remained within the natural levels reported in Syrian soil (13-32Bqkg-1 for 226Ra, 24.9-62.2Bqkg-1 for 238U and 10-32Bqkg-1 for 232Th). The impact of PG piles on plants varied upon the plant species. Higher concentrations of the radionuclides were recorded for grass in comparison to broad-leaved plants. Among the species that grow naturally on PG piles, Inula, Ecballium and Polygonium may be radionuclides accumulators. A determined effort is needed at a national level to achieve a common and coherent approach to regulate PG piles or to consider it a resource material rather than waste or residue.

A series of solutions of different concentrations of 1-E-2-P in methanol along with a photoinitiator, Darocur-1173, were prepared. Monomer concentration, soaking time, and radiation dose were optimized in terms of grafting and mechanical properties. Ten percent 1-E-2-P, 6 min soaking time, and a 15th pass of radiation produced higher tensile strength (53 %) and elongation at break (230 %) than those of virgin fiber, as well as the highest grafting value (4.9 %). The effect of additives (1 %), such as urea and silane (3-trimethoxysilyl propyl methacrylate) on the properties of coir fiber was studied. Among the additives used, silane showed the best performance. For further improvement of the properties, the fibers were treated with alkali (potassium hydroxide) solution of different temperatures (0-60 degree C). A 10 % alkali-treated fiber showed the best properties such as grafting (6.2 %), tensile strength (72 %) and elongation at break (330 %) over virgin fiber. The silane-treated fiber produced the minimum loss of the properties, as well as a lower water uptake than those of the untreated one. The effect of simulating weathering on the degradation properties of samples was also performed.

Measurements were carried out using a 2MeV proton beam produced from of the 3MV tandem accelerator. Sediment samples were collected from 11 sites covering the important potential pollution sources at the river. The accuracy of the experimental procedure was verified using a certified sediment reference material (IAEA-SL1) and was found to be less than 10%. The results have shown that Pb and As were within the natural levels. In contrast, high concentrations of other elements like Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn have been found at different sites and explained by local human and industrial activities.

[Part 2 of 2] T2 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: SEABROOK STATION, CITY OF SEABROOK, ROCKINGHAM COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE (FORTY-SIXTH DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 894158772; 15010-0_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the operating license for Seabrook Station located in the city of Seabrook, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, is proposed to extend the licensed plant life for an additional 20 years in this 46th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996 on promulgation of rules for all nuclear power reactor license renewals. The final EIS identified 92 issues and reached conclusions relating to environmental impacts for 69 of these issues that apply to all plants. Neither the applicant, NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC (NextEra), 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 March 15, 2030. Seabrook Station is located two miles west of the Atlantic Ocean, two miles north of the Massachusetts state line, 15 miles south of the Maine state line, and 10 miles south of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. There are two metropolitan areas within 50 miles of the site: Manchester, New Hampshire and Boston, Massachusetts. The Seabrook site spans 889 acres on a peninsula bordered on the north by Browns River, Hunts Island Creek on the south, and estuarine marshlands on the east. The original construction plans called for two identical units at Seabrook; but construction on Unit 2 was halted prior to completion and the remaining Unit 2 buildings are now used primarily for storage. Seabrook Unit 1, which began commercial operation on August 19, 1990, is a nuclear-powered steam electric generating facility powered by a Westinghouse pressurized water reactor (PWR). The reactor, steam generators, and related systems are enclosed in a reinforced concrete containment building with a slab base and hemispherical dome. A carbon steel liner attached to the inside face of the concrete shell ensures a high degree of leak tightness. In addition, the 3.6-foot thick concrete walls serve as a radiation shield for both normal and accident conditions. Unit 1 originally produced a reactor core power of 3,411 megawatts-thermal (MWt). This was increased in 2005 to 3,587 MWt and then again in 2006 to the plants current output of 3,648 MWt. The original design net electrical capacity was 1,198 megawatts-electric (MWe), which was increased to 1,221 MWe in 2005 and then to 1,245 MWe in 2006. Seabrook uses a once-through cooling system connected to the Gulf of Maine through a system of tunnels that have been drilled through ocean bedrock. Water withdrawn from the Gulf of Maine enters an intake tunnel located at a depth of 60 feet and then travels through one of three concrete intake shafts which extend upward from the intake tunnel above the bedrock. A velocity cap, which sits on top of each intake shaft, regulates flow and minimizes fish entrapment. From the intake shafts, water flows through a 17,000-foot intake tunnel that was drilled through the ocean bedrock. Water that has passed through Seabrook discharges to the Gulf of Maine through a 16,500-foot long discharge tunnel. In addition to the proposed license renewal, alternative methods of power generation and a No Action Alternative are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. Replacement power options considered are new natural-gas-fired combined-cycle generation, new nuclear generation, and a combination alternative that includes some natural-gas-fired capacity and a wind-power component. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the license would allow NextEra to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. All other alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by Seabrook Station would entail potentially greater impacts than the proposed action of license renewal. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Continued impacts to fish and shellfish species are expected to be small, with the exception of winter flounder which is regularly entrained and impinged at Seabrook. Monitoring data indicate that the abundance of winter flounder has decreased to a greater and observable extent near Seabrooks intake and discharge structures compared to three to four miles away. A previous leak from the cask loading area and transfer canal adjacent to the spent fuel pool resulted in elevated concentrations of tritium in groundwater at the site. However, overall groundwater monitoring suggests that offsite migration of tritium is not occurring. 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).

N1 - Last updated - 2011-08-12 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: SEABROOK STATION, CITY OF SEABROOK, ROCKINGHAM COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE (FORTY-SIXTH DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 16386445; 15010 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the operating license for Seabrook Station located in the city of Seabrook, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, is proposed to extend the licensed plant life for an additional 20 years in this 46th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996 on promulgation of rules for all nuclear power reactor license renewals. The final EIS identified 92 issues and reached conclusions relating to environmental impacts for 69 of these issues that apply to all plants. Neither the applicant, NextEra Energy Seabrook, LLC (NextEra), 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 March 15, 2030. Seabrook Station is located two miles west of the Atlantic Ocean, two miles north of the Massachusetts state line, 15 miles south of the Maine state line, and 10 miles south of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. There are two metropolitan areas within 50 miles of the site: Manchester, New Hampshire and Boston, Massachusetts. The Seabrook site spans 889 acres on a peninsula bordered on the north by Browns River, Hunts Island Creek on the south, and estuarine marshlands on the east. The original construction plans called for two identical units at Seabrook; but construction on Unit 2 was halted prior to completion and the remaining Unit 2 buildings are now used primarily for storage. Seabrook Unit 1, which began commercial operation on August 19, 1990, is a nuclear-powered steam electric generating facility powered by a Westinghouse pressurized water reactor (PWR). The reactor, steam generators, and related systems are enclosed in a reinforced concrete containment building with a slab base and hemispherical dome. A carbon steel liner attached to the inside face of the concrete shell ensures a high degree of leak tightness. In addition, the 3.6-foot thick concrete walls serve as a radiation shield for both normal and accident conditions. Unit 1 originally produced a reactor core power of 3,411 megawatts-thermal (MWt). This was increased in 2005 to 3,587 MWt and then again in 2006 to the plants current output of 3,648 MWt. The original design net electrical capacity was 1,198 megawatts-electric (MWe), which was increased to 1,221 MWe in 2005 and then to 1,245 MWe in 2006. Seabrook uses a once-through cooling system connected to the Gulf of Maine through a system of tunnels that have been drilled through ocean bedrock. Water withdrawn from the Gulf of Maine enters an intake tunnel located at a depth of 60 feet and then travels through one of three concrete intake shafts which extend upward from the intake tunnel above the bedrock. A velocity cap, which sits on top of each intake shaft, regulates flow and minimizes fish entrapment. From the intake shafts, water flows through a 17,000-foot intake tunnel that was drilled through the ocean bedrock. Water that has passed through Seabrook discharges to the Gulf of Maine through a 16,500-foot long discharge tunnel. In addition to the proposed license renewal, alternative methods of power generation and a No Action Alternative are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. Replacement power options considered are new natural-gas-fired combined-cycle generation, new nuclear generation, and a combination alternative that includes some natural-gas-fired capacity and a wind-power component. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the license would allow NextEra to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. All other alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by Seabrook Station would entail potentially greater impacts than the proposed action of license renewal. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Continued impacts to fish and shellfish species are expected to be small, with the exception of winter flounder which is regularly entrained and impinged at Seabrook. Monitoring data indicate that the abundance of winter flounder has decreased to a greater and observable extent near Seabrooks intake and discharge structures compared to three to four miles away. A previous leak from the cask loading area and transfer canal adjacent to the spent fuel pool resulted in elevated concentrations of tritium in groundwater at the site. However, overall groundwater monitoring suggests that offsite migration of tritium is not occurring. 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).

AN - 1093465196; 17151483 AB - This study examined the efficacy of 4 mite predators such as Neoseiulus pseudolongispinosus (Xin, Liang and Ke), Euseius castaneae (Wang and Xu), Euseius utilis (Liang and Ke) and Euseius finlandicus (Oudemans) (Phytosiidae) released for the suppression of spider mite Tetranychus urticae (Koch) infesting sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) in greenhouse. When the predatory mites were released on sweet pepper plants, their establishment was successful to control the population of spider mite at a lower level and results revealed significant differences in declining pest density among predators released and non released plants; in addition, ran significant differences were detected in treated plants. Released predators along an untreated control treatment to manage T. urticae resulted decline in pest densities from 0.82 to 1.02 per leaf, compared to 1.42 observed within the plants served as control, indicating the potential of these mite predators for augmentative releases. Among all the treatments tested, mite predators recovered were higher with N. pseudolongispinosus and E. utilis in equal proportion (0.12 per leaf) followed by E. castaneae and E. finlandicus (0.11 per leaf) inside released plants in comparison to check treatment where no predators were released (0.03 per leaf). The results for allocations of the pest and predatory arthropods on the plant canopy indicated that more prey and predator mites were found on middle and bottom leaves as compared with upper leaves of plant. Observational data suggested that predation on spider mite by the existing predators fauna may have perfect potential to provide biological control of pest in greenhouse crops.

The Radiation Protection Institute of the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission has adopted a systematic approach to training those occupationally exposed to ionizing radiation in the course of their work. In collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency several training courses have been implemented at the national level and in the African region. From 1993 to 2008, more than 400 occupationally exposed workers in Ghana were trained on radiation safety. Several African regional training events on radiation safety have also been executed with a total participation number of 583 individuals. The training events have contributed towards upgrading the safety culture within institutions that have participated.

By operating the reactor at nominal power for 2.5h/day, the estimated core life is 10years. This paper presents the results of fuel burn-up and depletion analysis of the MNSR fuel lattice using the ORIGEN 2 code. A one-group cross-section data base for the ORIGEN 2 computer code was developed for the Syrian MNSR research reactor. The ORIGEN 2 predicted burn-up dependent actinide compositions of MNSR spent fuel using the newly developed data base show a good agreement with the published results in the literature. In addition, the burn-up characteristics of MNSR spent fuel was analyzed with the new data base. Finally, to study the effect of burn-up on the reactivity, the microscopic cross-sections of the fission products calculated by the WlMS code (using the number densities of fission products generated by the ORIGEN 2 code as a function of burn-up time), were used as an input for the CITATION code calculations. The results contained in this paper could be used in performing criticality safety analysis and shielding calculations for the design of a spent fuel storage cask for the MNSR core.

The thermal neutron capture cross sections for the reactions 127I(n, gamma )128I, 152Sm(n, gamma )153Sm,154Sm(n, gamma )155Sm, and 238U(n, gamma )239U were determined by the method of foil activation using 55Mn(n, gamma )56Mn as a reference reaction. The experimental samples with and without a Cd cover were irradiated in an isotropic neutron field of a 20Ci 241Am-Be neutron source facility. A high purity Ge detector was used to measure the induced gamma-rays from the samples and the monitor. The thermal neutron capture cross sections of the reactions 127I(n, gamma )128I, 152Sm(n, gamma )153Sm, 154Sm(n, gamma )155Sm, and 238U(n, gamma )239U were deduced from the analysis of obtained gamma-ray spectra. The thermal neutron capture cross section values for 127I(n, gamma )128I, 152Sm(n, gamma )153Sm, 154Sm(n, gamma )155Sm, and 238U(n, gamma )239U reactions are (5.93+/-0.52), (207.3+/-9.4), (7.7+/-0.3), and (2.79+/-0.09) barns respectively. The obtained results have been discussed and compared with the available experimental data and were found to be in agreement with each other.

However, occurrences of environmental degradation have been observed as the current fleet of reactors age. Primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) is of particular interest to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). This paper provides a historical assessment of operating experience associated with PWSCC and welding issues associated with PWSCC materials. This paper also provides a brief description of NRC research concerning PWSCC. Finally the paper considers the regulatory issues associated with PWSCC, especially those associated with gaps in the understanding of the behavior of PWSCC resistant material under actual reactor conditions.

These stresses are of interest as DM welds in pressurized water reactors are susceptible to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) and tensile weld residual stresses are one of the primary drivers of this stress corrosion cracking mechanism. The NRC/EPRI weld residual stress (WRS) program currently consists of four phases, with each phase increasing in complexity from lab size specimens to component mock-ups and ex-plant material. This paper discusses Phase III of the WRS characterization program, comparing measured and predicted weld residual stresses profiles through the dissimilar metal weld region of pressurizer safety and relief nozzles removed from the cancelled WNP-3 plant.

Hence, the NRC has initiated further research work on environmentally assisted fatigue. The objectives of these research activities are as follows: 1. Develop a transient stress evaluation software tool for rapidly determining thermal transient stresses in reactor components. 2. Develop an ASME Code fatigue calculation software tool for estimating fatigue usage factors in reactor components. 3. Develop revised CUF limit criteria for postulated high energy line break locations. 4. Obtain technical support from Argonne National Laboratory to update existing environmental fatigue methodology, develop application techniques for applying the methodology, and revise RG 1.207 accordingly, if appropriate.

Therefore, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has initiated an over-the-horizon multi-year research Proactive Management of Materials Degradation (PMMD) Research Program, which is presently evaluating longer time frames (i.e., 80 or more years) and including passive long-lived SSCs beyond the primary piping and core internals, such as concrete containment and cable insulation. This will allow the NRC to (1) identify significant knowledge gaps and new forms of degradation; (2) capture current knowledge base; and, (3) prioritize materials degradation research needs and directions for future efforts.

Mixing this cement with dolomite grains and natural pozzolan powder increased and reduced significantly the leaching rate to 7.373 x 10[super]-4 g/cm[super]2 and 3.495 x 10[super]-4 g/cm[super]2 per day for 1 wt% mixing, and to 12.340 x 10[super]-4 g/cm[super]2 and 3.215 x 10[super]-5 g/cm[super]2 per day for 3 wt% mixing, respectively. This increase and reduction of the leaching rate is due to dedolomitization reactions between dolomite grains and cement alkalis, and pozzolanic reaction between pozzolan powder and calcium hydroxide, respectively. It was also found that the application of a latex paint reduced these leaching rates by about 8.8 and 8.2% for cement mixed with dolomite and with pozzolan, respectively. The obtained results help to improve the concrete properties used for the storage and disposal of the low-level radioactive wastes.

This is also the dose limit recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). The operational quantity recommended by ICRP for quantifying dose to the skin is the personal dose equivalent, H sub(p) (0.07) and is identical to NRC's shallow dose equivalent, H sub(s), also measured at a skin depth of 7 mg cm super(-2). However, whereas ICRP recommends averaging the dose to the skin over an area of 1 cm super(2) regardless of the size of the exposed area of skin, USNRC requires the shallow dose equivalent to be averaged over 10 cm super(2). To monitor dose to the skin of the hands of workers handling radioactive materials and particularly in radiophar-maceutical manufacturing facilities, which is the focus of this work, workers are frequently required to wear finger ring dosimeters. The dosimeters monitor the dose at the location of the sensitive element, but this is not the dose required to show compliance (i.e., the dose averaged over the highest exposed contiguous 10 cm super(2) of skin). Therefore, it may be necessary to apply a correction factor that enables estimation of the required skin dose from the dosimeter reading. This work explored the effects of finger ring placement and of the geometry of the radioactive materials being handled by the worker on the relationship between the dosimeter reading and the desired average dose. A mathematical model of the hand was developed for this purpose that is capable of positioning the fingers in any desired grasping configuration, thereby realistically modeling manipulation of any object. The model was then used with the radiation transport code MCNP to calculate the dose distribution on the skin of the hand when handling a variety of radioactive vials and syringes, as well as the dose to the dosimeter element. Correction factors were calculated using the results of these calculations and examined for any patterns that may be useful in establishing an appropriate correction factor for this type of work. It was determined that a correction factor of one applied to the dosimeter reading, with the dosimeter placed at the base of the middle finger, provides an adequate estimate of the required average dose during a monitoring period for most commonly encountered geometries. Different correction factors may be required for exceptional or unusual source geometries and must be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Shrimp chitosan was extracted from shell using a chemical process involving demineralization, deproteinization, decolorization and deacetylation. Commercial snow chitosan was also used. Samples (in a solid state) were given irradiation dose of 25 kGy at a dose rate of 1.1013 kGy/h in air and 0 kGy samples were used as controls. Results showed that moisture contents were between 8.690% and 13.645%. There were no significant differences (P>0.05) in the degree of deacetylation of the chitosan samples. Significant differences (P<0.05) were observed in the viscosity and viscosity-average molecular weight of the chistosan samples. Viscosity and molecular weight decreased when the samples were given the irradiation dose of 25 kGy. Chitosan samples had low antioxidant activity compared with BHT. Water binding capacity ranged from 582.40% to 656.75% and fat binding capacity was between 431.00% and 560.55%. Irradiation had a major effect on the viscosity and the viscosity-average molecular weight of the chitosan samples.

The contribution of each diode to the total cell j-V characteristic under illumination was estimated using the current separation method presented recently [1]. This is performed in an effort to identify the distinctive features of this record-efficiency cell, which have led to the up-to-date highest open circuit voltage of V sub(oc)=946 mV and fill factor of FF=66.5% for CuGaSe sub(2) solar cells. Furthermore, the interface recombination component of the cell current under illumination is quantitatively discussed applying the interface recombination model presented earlier [2].

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - LOST CREEK IN-SITU URANIUM RECOVERY (ISR) PROJECT, SWEETWATER COUNTY, WYOMING (THIRD FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 2009). AN - 884411356; 14957-7_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a new source material license for the construction, operation, aquifer restoration, and decommissioning of an in-situ leach uranium recovery facility, also known as an in-situ recovery (ISR) facility, in Sweetwater County, Wyoming is proposed. Lost Creek ISR, LLC (LCI) submitted an application in March 2008 for the project, which would be located in the Wyoming West Uranium Milling Region, one of four specified geographic regions identified in the final generic EIS of June 2009 for In-Situ Leach Uranium Milling Facilities prepared by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). The proposed project site consists of 4,254 acres remotely located on public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management and the State of Wyoming. Facilities would include a central plant to produce yellowcake slurry, well fields, a deep disposal well for liquid effluent wastes, and attendant infrastructure. During the ISR process, an oxidant-charged solution, called a lixiviant, is injected into the production zone aquifer using native ground water, carbon dioxide, and sodium carbonate/bicarbonate, with an oxygen or hydrogen peroxide oxidant. The lixiviant oxidizes and dissolves the mineralized uranium and the resulting uranium-rich solution is drawn to recovery wells and then transferred to a processing facility via a network of pipes. At the processing facility, the uranium is leached from the solution and the resulting barren solution is then recharged with the oxidant and re-injected to recover more uranium from the well field. During production, the uranium recovery solution continually moves through the aquifer from outlying injection wells to internal recovery wells. Monitoring wells in the production zone aquifer and the overlying and underlying aquifers would detect lixiviant in case of migration out of the production zone. LCI has received a 10-year permit from Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality for up to five disposal wells for deep injection of liquid byproduct from ISR operations. The processing plant would not contain a dryer, and the yellowcake slurry would be shipped off site to a licensed facility for further processing. LCI expects to produce one million pounds of yellowcake per year for a period of at least eight years. Decommissioning and land reclamation for the process plant is anticipated to begin about the ninth year and extend over about two years. In addition to the proposed action, this final supplemental EIS evaluates a No Action Alternative and a modified action alternative which would involve the installation of a dryer to allow production of dry yellowcake at the proposed Lost Creek ISR site. The uranium that is recovered from the solution would be processed, dried into yellowcake and packaged into approved 55-gallon steel drums, and trucked offsite to a licensed conversion facility. The NRC staff recommends that, unless safety issues mandate otherwise, the source material license be issued as requested. 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. The proposed project would employ approximately 94 people during construction and 89 people during operation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Earthmoving activities would disturb 285 acres of surface area to construct the processing plant, settling ponds, wells and access roads. Removal of sagebrush would impact small mammals and birds, including the greater sage-grouse. Habitat fragmentation, wildlife displacement, and direct or indirect mortalities would be possible, although impacts could be reduced by LCIs mitigation and monitoring plan. Water levels in three surrounding private stock wells would be affected. Three archaeological sites in the project area are eligible for listing with the National Register of Historic Places; one site is located within a proposed well field site.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, CITRUS COUNTY, FLORIDA (FORTY-FOURTH DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 879466961; 14939-8_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the operating license for the Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant (CR-3) in the city of Crystal River, Citrus County, Florida is proposed to extend the licensed plant life for an additional 20 years in this 44th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996 on promulgation of rules for all license renewals. The final EIS identified 92 issues and reached conclusions relating to environmental impacts for 69 of these issues that apply to all plants. Neither the applicant, Florida Power Corporation (FPC), doing business as Progress Energy Florida, Inc., nor staff at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission 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 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 3, 2016. CR-3 is located on Crystal Bay, an embayment of the Gulf of Mexico, 80 miles north of Tampa, and is part of the Crystal River Energy Complex, which includes the single nuclear unit and four fossil-fueled units, Crystal River Units 1, 2, 4, and 5. The complex boundary encloses 4,738 acres and the most conspicuous structures include the four fossil-fueled units, two large cooling towers, coal delivery and storage areas, ash storage basins, office buildings, warehouses, stacks, roads, barge handling docks, and a railroad. Two 500-kilovolt transmission lines connect CR-3 to the regional transmission grid. CR-3 includes a pressurized light-water reactor nuclear steam supply system supplied by Babcock & Wilcox and a turbine generator designed and manufactured by Westinghouse Electric Company. CR-3 is currently approved for a core power level of 2,609 megawatts-thermal (MWt), but FPC intends to request an extended power uprate to 3,014 MWt. The reactor containment structure is a steel-lined, reinforced-concrete structure in the shape of a cylinder and capped with a hemispheric dome designed to withstand tornadoes and hurricanes and provide radiation protection during normal operations and design-basis accidents. CR-3 has a once-through heat dissipation system that withdraws water from, and discharges it to, Crystal Bay in the Gulf of Mexico. Cooling water circulates through CR-3 in one of two modes of operation: open cycle, or once-through cooling with no cooling towers in operation; and helper cycle, or once-through cooling with mechanical draft cooling towers in operation. The mode of operation is selected so that thermal discharges to Crystal Bay are in compliance with the thermal limits of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. In addition to the proposed license renewal, alternative methods of power generation and a No Action alternative are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. Replacement power options considered include a new supercritical coal-fired plant, a new natural gas-fired combined-cycle plant, and a combination of alternatives that includes some natural gas-fired capacity and energy conservation. The preliminary conclusion is that there are no environmental impacts to preclude a 20-year extension of the license for CR-3. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the license would allow Progress Energy to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. All other alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by CR-3 would entail potentially greater impacts than the proposed action of license renewal of CR-3. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Following repairs of delamination in the containment building wall, additional delaminated concrete was discovered in March 2011 requiring changes to the scope and timing of repairs for CR-3, which is currently idle. Renewed operations would create further impacts to fish and shellfish through entrainment, impingement, and heat shock. Radioactive releases would result in radiation doses to workers and the public, but the doses would be within federal radiation protection standards.

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 3, 2016. CR-3 is located on Crystal Bay, an embayment of the Gulf of Mexico, 80 miles north of Tampa, and is part of the Crystal River Energy Complex, which includes the single nuclear unit and four fossil-fueled units, Crystal River Units 1, 2, 4, and 5. The complex boundary encloses 4,738 acres and the most conspicuous structures include the four fossil-fueled units, two large cooling towers, coal delivery and storage areas, ash storage basins, office buildings, warehouses, stacks, roads, barge handling docks, and a railroad. Two 500-kilovolt transmission lines connect CR-3 to the regional transmission grid. CR-3 includes a pressurized light-water reactor nuclear steam supply system supplied by Babcock & Wilcox and a turbine generator designed and manufactured by Westinghouse Electric Company. CR-3 is currently approved for a core power level of 2,609 megawatts-thermal (MWt), but FPC intends to request an extended power uprate to 3,014 MWt. The reactor containment structure is a steel-lined, reinforced-concrete structure in the shape of a cylinder and capped with a hemispheric dome designed to withstand tornadoes and hurricanes and provide radiation protection during normal operations and design-basis accidents. CR-3 has a once-through heat dissipation system that withdraws water from, and discharges it to, Crystal Bay in the Gulf of Mexico. Cooling water circulates through CR-3 in one of two modes of operation: open cycle, or once-through cooling with no cooling towers in operation; and helper cycle, or once-through cooling with mechanical draft cooling towers in operation. The mode of operation is selected so that thermal discharges to Crystal Bay are in compliance with the thermal limits of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. In addition to the proposed license renewal, alternative methods of power generation and a No Action alternative are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. Replacement power options considered include a new supercritical coal-fired plant, a new natural gas-fired combined-cycle plant, and a combination of alternatives that includes some natural gas-fired capacity and energy conservation. The preliminary conclusion is that there are no environmental impacts to preclude a 20-year extension of the license for CR-3. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the license would allow Progress Energy to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. All other alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by CR-3 would entail potentially greater impacts than the proposed action of license renewal of CR-3. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Following repairs of delamination in the containment building wall, additional delaminated concrete was discovered in March 2011 requiring changes to the scope and timing of repairs for CR-3, which is currently idle. Renewed operations would create further impacts to fish and shellfish through entrainment, impingement, and heat shock.

The amounts of uranium burntup and plutonium produced in the reactor core, the concentrations and radionuclides of the most important fission products and actinide radionuclides accumulated in the reactor core, and the total radioactivity of the reactor core were calculated using the GETERA code as well. It is found that the GETERA code is better than the WIMSD4 code for the fuel burnup calculation in the MNSR reactor since it is newer, has a bigger library of isotopes, and is more accurate.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - AREVA EAGLE ROCK ENRICHMENT FACILITY, BONNEVILLE COUNTY, IDAHO (U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION NUREG-1945 ADOPTED AS DOE/EIS-0471). AN - 873131792; 14911-0_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a loan guarantee to Areva Energy Services, LLC (AES) for the construction of a uranium enrichment facility in Bonneville County, Idaho is proposed. The Eagle Rock Enrichment Facility (EREF) would be located on a 460-acre section of a 4,200-acre parcel of rural land and would employ a gas centrifuge process to produce commercial nuclear fuel. Prior to the Department of Energy (DOE) Loan Programs Office involvement in the project, AES submitted a license application for the construction and operation of the proposed facility to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). A final EIS was issued in February, 2011, but the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board has yet to issue its final decision on the license. The license would authorize AES to possess and use byproduct material, source material, and special nuclear material at the proposed EREF site near Idaho Falls for a period of 30 years. AES would produce uranium enriched up to five percent by weight in the isotope uranium-235, with a planned maximum target production of 6.6 million separative work units (SWUs) per year. The enriched uranium would be used to manufacture nuclear fuel for commercial nuclear power reactors. Production at the facility would be equivalent to about 40 percent of the current and projected demand for enrichment services within the United States. Uranium would arrive at the proposed EREF as natural uranium hexafluoride (UF6). Facilities would include: cylinder storage pads, a centrifuge assembly building, four separations building modules (SBMs), a cylinder receipt and shipping building, and various support and administrative buildings. If the license is approved, construction would begin in 2011 with heavy construction of all major buildings and structures continuing for seven years. The EREF would begin initial production in 2014 and reach peak production in 2022. Operations would continue until approximately nine years before the license expires. Decommissioning activities would then begin and be completed by 2041 unless AES applies for license renewal. Decommissioning would involve the sequential shutdown of the four SBMs, each taking approximately 4.5 years. In addition to the proposed action, this final EIS considers a No Action Alternative, alternative sites for the facility, alternative sources of low-enriched uranium, and alternative technologies for uranium enrichment. NRC staff have concluded that impacts would be generally small, and application of the environmental monitoring program and the proposed mitigation measures would eliminate or substantially lessen any potential adverse impacts. Unless safety issues mandate otherwise, it is recommended that the proposed license be issued to AES. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The EREF would provide an additional economical domestic source of uranium enrichment services, and increased regional employment, income, and tax revenue. Construction would create 1,687 jobs in the peak year, while operations would produce 3,289 jobs and $92.4 million in income in the first year. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activities would result in some soil erosion, soil compaction, changes in drainage patterns, and disruption to wildlife. The John Leopard Homestead, which has been recommended as eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, would be destroyed. Traffic volume on US 20 would increase. During operations, there would be a potential for small gaseous releases that could contain uranium isotopes, hydrogen fluoride, and uranyl fluoride. A critical accident could result in fatality for workers in close proximity. Six potential accident scenarios predict consequences to the collective offsite public of less than one lifetime cancer fatality. Operation would generate 11,136 pounds of hazardous wastes and 1,222 cylinders of depleted uranium annually. The EREF would be located 1.5 miles from US 20 and the Hell's Half Acre Wilderness Study Area and would create a significant contrast with the surrounding visual environment.

Preparation date: May 20, 2011 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - AMERICAN CENTRIFUGE PLANT IN PIKETON, PIKE COUNTY, OHIO (U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION NUREG-1834 ADOPTED AS DOE/EIS-0468). [Part 1 of 1] T2 - AMERICAN CENTRIFUGE PLANT IN PIKETON, PIKE COUNTY, OHIO (U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION NUREG-1834 ADOPTED AS DOE/EIS-0468). AN - 873129974; 14914-3_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a loan guarantee to USEC Inc. to support funding for the American Centrifuge Plant (ACP) in Piketon, Ohio is proposed. Piketon lies between Chillicothe and Portsmouth, approximately 70 miles south of Columbus, Ohio. The ACP would enrich feed material comprised of uranium hexaflouride to produce uranium for use in commercial fuel for power reactors. Enrichment is the process of increasing the concentration of the naturally occurring fissionable uranium-235 isotope. USEC proposes to enrich uranium up to 10 percent by weight of uranium-235. Prior to the Department of Energy (DOE) Loan Programs Office involvement in the ACP project, USEC submitted a license application for the construction and operation of the proposed gas centrifuge uranium enrichment facility to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. In April, 2007, the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board issued a 30-year license and USEC started construction of the ACP in May 2007 at the former DOE Gas Centrifuge Enrichment Plant (GCEP) located at the existing DOE Portsmouth Reservation in Piketon. USEC has rights to the long-term use of facilities at the GCEP through 2043 and these facilities are being refurbished as part of the ACP project. Activities currently underway include: building the balance of the plant, including installing electric, telecommunications, and cooling water distribution systems; preparing the process building floor for centrifuge machine mounts; preparing the recycle and assembly building for installation of centrifuge machine assembly equipment; constructing a new boiler building; and refurbishing the feed and withdrawal facility. In August 2007, the lead cascade test program began in accordance with USECs demonstration license. Through 2010, USEC implemented an extensive testing program, initiated its technology demonstration activities, refined the centrifuge manufacturing processes and its operation, and is currently focused on technology demonstration activities. In the commercial deployment phase, the ACP would have a capacity of 3.8 million separative work units (SWU) per year. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The ACP would provide much of the uramium-235 necessary to generate a large portion of the 393 gigawatts of new generating capacity required to meet the nation's needs by 2020. This would require an installed nuclear-generating capacity increase from 98 gigawatts in 2001 to 103 gigawatts in 2025, which is the equivalent of five nuclear reactors. In addition to advancing national energy security goals, the ACP plant would help facilitate the deployment of new, cost-effective, advanced enrichment technology. Gas centrifuge technology is less energy intensive than the gaseous diffusion technology currently in use. The ACP would provide for significant local employment opportunities and otherwise contribute to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Slight impacts would result with respect to land use, historic and cultural resources, visual aesthetics, air quality, geologic and soil resources, water resources, ecological resources, socioeconomics, noise levels, transportation-related radiological hazards, occupational health and safety, and waste management.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2, RED WING, GOODHUE COUNTY, MINNESOTA (THIRTY-NINTH FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 873129947; 14915-4_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of operating licenses for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) Units 1 and 2, located on the west bank of the Mississippi River within the city limits of Red Wing, Goodhue County, Minnesota is proposed to extend the licensed plant life for an additional 20 years. The final EIS of 1996 on promulgation of rules for all license renewals identified 92 environmental issues and reached generic conclusions relating to impacts for 69 of these issues that apply to all plants. Neither the applicant, Northern States Power Company, nor staff at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) identified new information for any of the 69 issues. The remaining 23 issues are addressed in this 39th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996. If the licenses are renewed, federal and state agencies and the owners of the plant would go on to decide whether the plant should continue to operate based on factors such as the need for power. If the operating licenses are not renewed, PINGP Units 1 and 2 would be shut down on or before expiration of the current licenses, August 9, 2013 and October 29, 2014, respectively. The two Westinghouse pressurized water reactors utilize a hybrid cooling system, which consists of three modes of operation: open cycle, or once-through cooling with no cooling towers in operation; helper cycle, or once-through cooling with mechanical draft cooling towers in operation; and closed cycle using cooling towers to recirculate up to 95 percent of the cooling water. The plant is licensed to operate at 1,650 megawatts-thermal per unit, or 575 megawatts-electrical of gross electrical output per unit. Buildings on the site include the four natural draft cooling towers, the reactor building, auxiliary building, turbine building, intake and plant screenhouses, and the PINGP 1 and 2 substation. Spent fuel is stored in a pool inside the plant until it is cooled, and transferred to dry storage containers in the on-site Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). Spent fuel will be stored there until the federal government removes it to be reprocessed or stored at a government facility. As of early 2010, Prairie Island's ISFSI housed 26 dry-storage containers, which hold a store of 1,040 spent fuel assemblies. In addition to the proposed license renewal, other methods of power generation and a No Action Alternative are considered. Replacement power options include: 1) gas-fired combined-cycle plant at the PINGP 1 and 2 site and an undetermined alternate site; 2) a combination including a gas-fired unit, wind power, conservation, and wood-waste biomass; and 3) a combination including continued operation of one of the two PINGP units, wind power, and conservation. NRCs recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for PINGP 1 and 2 are not great enough to deny the option of license renewal for energy-planning decision makers. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the license would allow the applicant to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. All alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by PINGP 1 and 2 entail potentially equal or greater impacts than the proposed action of license renewal. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Refurbishment and maintenance activities would have some impact on air quality and ground and surface water use and quality. Industrial effluents, including cooling water, would continue to be discharged to the Mississippi River. Aquatic resources could be impacted by impingement, entrainment, and heat shock. Continued operation is likely to affect state-listed mussel species and could cause long-term destabilization to certain mussel populations. The plant is situated in an archaeologically sensitive area, but continued development of a cultural resources management plan would serve to integrate cultural resource considerations with ongoing activities. Slightly higher doses of radiation to members of the public could occur during refurbishment, but the dose to a maximally exposed individual would be a small fraction of standard limits. 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).

[Part 1 of 2] T2 - CALVERT CLIFFS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT UNIT 3, APPLICATION FOR COMBINED LICENSE, CALVERT COUNTY, MARYLAND. AN - 873128004; 14918-7_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a combined operating license (COL) for the construction and operation of a new nuclear power reactor unit at the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP) site in Calvert County, Maryland is proposed. Calvert Cliffs 3 Nuclear Project, LLC and UniStar Nuclear Operating Services, LLC (collectively referred to as UniStar) applied to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the license to locate the proposed CCNPP Unit 3 on a site near Lusby. The 2,070-acre site on the Calvert Peninsula is situated on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, 40 miles southeast of Washington, D.C. The existing two pressurized water reactors (PWRs), associated facilities, a barge slip, and onsite transmission lines occupy 331 acres. The location for proposed Unit 3 is south of CCNPP Units 1 and 2, in the vicinity of the former Camp Conoy. Unit 3 would have a separate protected area and plant access road. The Unit 3 reactor building would be surrounded by the fuel pool building, four safeguard buildings, two emergency diesel generator buildings, the reactor auxiliary building, the radioactive waste processing building, and the access building. The vent stack for Unit 3 would be the tallest new structure at approximately 211 feet above grade or about seven feet above the reactor building. Unlike existing CCNPP Units 1 and 2, which use once-through cooling systems, the Unit 3 design would consist of a closed-cycle cooling system with a single, circular, mechanical draft cooling tower. At an approximate height of 164 feet, this 528-foot diameter tower (at the base) would be the second largest structure on the site and is to be outfitted with plume abatement to minimize visible water vapor plume. Unit 3 buildings would be constructed of concrete. UniStar would utilize the Areva NP Inc. Evolutionary Power Reactor design and the proposed four-loop PWR is rated at 4,590 megawatts (MW) thermal, with a design gross-electrical output of 1,710 MW electrical and a net output of 1,562 MW electrical. During accidents, makeup water for the essential service water system would be supplied from the Chesapeake Bay through a ultimate heat sink intake structure. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers energy source alternatives, building and operation of new reactors at alternative sites, and system design alternatives. The NRC staffs recommendation is that the COL be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would provide additional large baseload electrical generation capacity within Maryland and avoid rolling blackouts projected to occur as soon as 2011. The employment of a large workforce for up to 86 months would have positive economic impacts on the surrounding region. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would disturb 460 acres and convert 320 acres to structures, pavement, or intensively maintained ground. Permanent disturbance would include 7.9 acres of forested nontidal wetlands, 1.2 acres of emergent nontidal wetlands, 2.6 acres of nontidal open water, 8,350 feet of streambed, and 5.7 acres of tidal open waters. Several surface water bodies and some of the aquifers underlying the site would be impacted. Land clearing would result in lost or decreased habitat for migratory birds. Dredging and the building of the intake and discharge structures would affect aquatic resources in Chesapeake Bay.

AN - 873127723; 14917-6_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of combined operating licenses (COLs) for the construction and operation of two new nuclear power reactor units at the Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant (CPNPP) site in Hood and Somervell counties, Texas is proposed. Luminant Generation Company LLC, acting for itself and as agent for Nuclear Project Company LLC (subsequently renamed Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Company LLC), submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on September 19, 2008 for the proposed CPNPP Units 3 and 4 which would be located adjacent to the existing Units 1 and 2. The CPNPP, which is situated 40 miles southwest of Fort Worth and five miles north of Glen Rose, currently consists of two Westinghouse pressurized-water reactor units, a turbine building, a switchyard, water intake and discharge structures, and support buildings. A radioactive waste disposal system and a fuel-handling system are located on the site. Squaw Creek Reservoir serves as the source of cooling water for Units 1 and 2. The proposed CPNPP Units 3 and 4 would utilize Mitsubishi Heavy Industries U.S. Advanced Pressurized-Water Reactor units, each having a rated and design core power level of 4,451 megawatts (MW) thermal and a rated and design net output of 1,600 MW electrical. The units would use enriched uranium dioxide fuel. Wet mechanical draft cooling towers are proposed for Units 3 and 4. Water would be supplied from a new intake structure on Lake Granbury through two new pipelines. A new blowdown water treatment facility and evaporation pond would be constructed south of Units 1 and 2 and two new pipelines would be built for discharge of treated blowdown water to Lake Granbury. Up to four new transmission lines would be built, including two added to existing towers and two built on new towers in new rights-of-way. A new sanitary waste treatment plant with a 100,000-gallon-per-day capacity would be installed and would be used to dewater sanitary waste sludge from all four units. Commercial electric generation is expected to begin in 2017 for CPNPP Unit 3 and in 2018 for Unit 4. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers alternative reactor sites and mitigation measures for reducing adverse impacts. The NRC staffs recommendation is that the COLs be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would provide additional baseload electrical generation capacity within the service areas of Luminant Generation Company. Significant employment and income benefits would accrue to Somervell and Hood counties. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new units would disturb 675 acres of land, permanently convert 161 acres of prime farmland, and result in permanent loss of 445 acres of terrestrial habitat. Installation of a water intake structure could lead to a temporary increase in turbidity in Lake Granbury. Proposed transmission lines and pipelines could sever tracts of public and private property and one corridor could pass on or close to Dinosaur Valley State Park with potential to impact black-capped vireo and golden-cheeked warbler. Withdrawal of water from Lake Granbury would result in lower water levels in the lake with potential impacts to aquatic resources and decreased flows in the Brazos River. Cooling system operation would impact shoreline vegetation.

[Part 2 of 2] T2 - CALVERT CLIFFS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT UNIT 3, APPLICATION FOR COMBINED LICENSE, CALVERT COUNTY, MARYLAND. AN - 873127556; 14918-7_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a combined operating license (COL) for the construction and operation of a new nuclear power reactor unit at the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP) site in Calvert County, Maryland is proposed. Calvert Cliffs 3 Nuclear Project, LLC and UniStar Nuclear Operating Services, LLC (collectively referred to as UniStar) applied to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the license to locate the proposed CCNPP Unit 3 on a site near Lusby. The 2,070-acre site on the Calvert Peninsula is situated on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, 40 miles southeast of Washington, D.C. The existing two pressurized water reactors (PWRs), associated facilities, a barge slip, and onsite transmission lines occupy 331 acres. The location for proposed Unit 3 is south of CCNPP Units 1 and 2, in the vicinity of the former Camp Conoy. Unit 3 would have a separate protected area and plant access road. The Unit 3 reactor building would be surrounded by the fuel pool building, four safeguard buildings, two emergency diesel generator buildings, the reactor auxiliary building, the radioactive waste processing building, and the access building. The vent stack for Unit 3 would be the tallest new structure at approximately 211 feet above grade or about seven feet above the reactor building. Unlike existing CCNPP Units 1 and 2, which use once-through cooling systems, the Unit 3 design would consist of a closed-cycle cooling system with a single, circular, mechanical draft cooling tower. At an approximate height of 164 feet, this 528-foot diameter tower (at the base) would be the second largest structure on the site and is to be outfitted with plume abatement to minimize visible water vapor plume. Unit 3 buildings would be constructed of concrete. UniStar would utilize the Areva NP Inc. Evolutionary Power Reactor design and the proposed four-loop PWR is rated at 4,590 megawatts (MW) thermal, with a design gross-electrical output of 1,710 MW electrical and a net output of 1,562 MW electrical. During accidents, makeup water for the essential service water system would be supplied from the Chesapeake Bay through a ultimate heat sink intake structure. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers energy source alternatives, building and operation of new reactors at alternative sites, and system design alternatives. The NRC staffs recommendation is that the COL be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would provide additional large baseload electrical generation capacity within Maryland and avoid rolling blackouts projected to occur as soon as 2011. The employment of a large workforce for up to 86 months would have positive economic impacts on the surrounding region. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would disturb 460 acres and convert 320 acres to structures, pavement, or intensively maintained ground. Permanent disturbance would include 7.9 acres of forested nontidal wetlands, 1.2 acres of emergent nontidal wetlands, 2.6 acres of nontidal open water, 8,350 feet of streambed, and 5.7 acres of tidal open waters. Several surface water bodies and some of the aquifers underlying the site would be impacted. Land clearing would result in lost or decreased habitat for migratory birds. Dredging and the building of the intake and discharge structures would affect aquatic resources in Chesapeake Bay. 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.), River and Harbor Act of 1899 (33 U.S.C. 401 et seq.), and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR, Part 54).

Preparation date: May 20, 2011 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2, RED WING, GOODHUE COUNTY, MINNESOTA (THIRTY-NINTH FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 871765688; 14915 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of operating licenses for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) Units 1 and 2, located on the west bank of the Mississippi River within the city limits of Red Wing, Goodhue County, Minnesota is proposed to extend the licensed plant life for an additional 20 years. The final EIS of 1996 on promulgation of rules for all license renewals identified 92 environmental issues and reached generic conclusions relating to impacts for 69 of these issues that apply to all plants. Neither the applicant, Northern States Power Company, nor staff at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) identified new information for any of the 69 issues. The remaining 23 issues are addressed in this 39th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996. If the licenses are renewed, federal and state agencies and the owners of the plant would go on to decide whether the plant should continue to operate based on factors such as the need for power. If the operating licenses are not renewed, PINGP Units 1 and 2 would be shut down on or before expiration of the current licenses, August 9, 2013 and October 29, 2014, respectively. The two Westinghouse pressurized water reactors utilize a hybrid cooling system, which consists of three modes of operation: open cycle, or once-through cooling with no cooling towers in operation; helper cycle, or once-through cooling with mechanical draft cooling towers in operation; and closed cycle using cooling towers to recirculate up to 95 percent of the cooling water. The plant is licensed to operate at 1,650 megawatts-thermal per unit, or 575 megawatts-electrical of gross electrical output per unit. Buildings on the site include the four natural draft cooling towers, the reactor building, auxiliary building, turbine building, intake and plant screenhouses, and the PINGP 1 and 2 substation. Spent fuel is stored in a pool inside the plant until it is cooled, and transferred to dry storage containers in the on-site Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). Spent fuel will be stored there until the federal government removes it to be reprocessed or stored at a government facility. As of early 2010, Prairie Island's ISFSI housed 26 dry-storage containers, which hold a store of 1,040 spent fuel assemblies. In addition to the proposed license renewal, other methods of power generation and a No Action Alternative are considered. Replacement power options include: 1) gas-fired combined-cycle plant at the PINGP 1 and 2 site and an undetermined alternate site; 2) a combination including a gas-fired unit, wind power, conservation, and wood-waste biomass; and 3) a combination including continued operation of one of the two PINGP units, wind power, and conservation. NRCs recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for PINGP 1 and 2 are not great enough to deny the option of license renewal for energy-planning decision makers. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Renewal of the license would allow the applicant to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. All alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by PINGP 1 and 2 entail potentially equal or greater impacts than the proposed action of license renewal. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Refurbishment and maintenance activities would have some impact on air quality and ground and surface water use and quality. Industrial effluents, including cooling water, would continue to be discharged to the Mississippi River. Aquatic resources could be impacted by impingement, entrainment, and heat shock. Continued operation is likely to affect state-listed mussel species and could cause long-term destabilization to certain mussel populations. The plant is situated in an archaeologically sensitive area, but continued development of a cultural resources management plan would serve to integrate cultural resource considerations with ongoing activities. Slightly higher doses of radiation to members of the public could occur during refurbishment, but the dose to a maximally exposed individual would be a small fraction of standard limits. 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).

Preparation date: May 20, 2011 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - AMERICAN CENTRIFUGE PLANT IN PIKETON, PIKE COUNTY, OHIO (U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION NUREG-1834 ADOPTED AS DOE/EIS-0468). AN - 871765681; 14914 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a loan guarantee to USEC Inc. to support funding for the American Centrifuge Plant (ACP) in Piketon, Ohio is proposed. Piketon lies between Chillicothe and Portsmouth, approximately 70 miles south of Columbus, Ohio. The ACP would enrich feed material comprised of uranium hexaflouride to produce uranium for use in commercial fuel for power reactors. Enrichment is the process of increasing the concentration of the naturally occurring fissionable uranium-235 isotope. USEC proposes to enrich uranium up to 10 percent by weight of uranium-235. Prior to the Department of Energy (DOE) Loan Programs Office involvement in the ACP project, USEC submitted a license application for the construction and operation of the proposed gas centrifuge uranium enrichment facility to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. In April, 2007, the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board issued a 30-year license and USEC started construction of the ACP in May 2007 at the former DOE Gas Centrifuge Enrichment Plant (GCEP) located at the existing DOE Portsmouth Reservation in Piketon. USEC has rights to the long-term use of facilities at the GCEP through 2043 and these facilities are being refurbished as part of the ACP project. Activities currently underway include: building the balance of the plant, including installing electric, telecommunications, and cooling water distribution systems; preparing the process building floor for centrifuge machine mounts; preparing the recycle and assembly building for installation of centrifuge machine assembly equipment; constructing a new boiler building; and refurbishing the feed and withdrawal facility. In August 2007, the lead cascade test program began in accordance with USECs demonstration license. Through 2010, USEC implemented an extensive testing program, initiated its technology demonstration activities, refined the centrifuge manufacturing processes and its operation, and is currently focused on technology demonstration activities. In the commercial deployment phase, the ACP would have a capacity of 3.8 million separative work units (SWU) per year. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The ACP would provide much of the uramium-235 necessary to generate a large portion of the 393 gigawatts of new generating capacity required to meet the nation's needs by 2020. This would require an installed nuclear-generating capacity increase from 98 gigawatts in 2001 to 103 gigawatts in 2025, which is the equivalent of five nuclear reactors. In addition to advancing national energy security goals, the ACP plant would help facilitate the deployment of new, cost-effective, advanced enrichment technology. Gas centrifuge technology is less energy intensive than the gaseous diffusion technology currently in use. The ACP would provide for significant local employment opportunities and otherwise contribute to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Slight impacts would result with respect to land use, historic and cultural resources, visual aesthetics, air quality, geologic and soil resources, water resources, ecological resources, socioeconomics, noise levels, transportation-related radiological hazards, occupational health and safety, and waste management.

AN - 871764939; 14911 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a loan guarantee to Areva Energy Services, LLC (AES) for the construction of a uranium enrichment facility in Bonneville County, Idaho is proposed. The Eagle Rock Enrichment Facility (EREF) would be located on a 460-acre section of a 4,200-acre parcel of rural land and would employ a gas centrifuge process to produce commercial nuclear fuel. Prior to the Department of Energy (DOE) Loan Programs Office involvement in the project, AES submitted a license application for the construction and operation of the proposed facility to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). A final EIS was issued in February, 2011, but the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board has yet to issue its final decision on the license. The license would authorize AES to possess and use byproduct material, source material, and special nuclear material at the proposed EREF site near Idaho Falls for a period of 30 years. AES would produce uranium enriched up to five percent by weight in the isotope uranium-235, with a planned maximum target production of 6.6 million separative work units (SWUs) per year. The enriched uranium would be used to manufacture nuclear fuel for commercial nuclear power reactors. Production at the facility would be equivalent to about 40 percent of the current and projected demand for enrichment services within the United States. Uranium would arrive at the proposed EREF as natural uranium hexafluoride (UF6). Facilities would include: cylinder storage pads, a centrifuge assembly building, four separations building modules (SBMs), a cylinder receipt and shipping building, and various support and administrative buildings. If the license is approved, construction would begin in 2011 with heavy construction of all major buildings and structures continuing for seven years. The EREF would begin initial production in 2014 and reach peak production in 2022. Operations would continue until approximately nine years before the license expires. Decommissioning activities would then begin and be completed by 2041 unless AES applies for license renewal. Decommissioning would involve the sequential shutdown of the four SBMs, each taking approximately 4.5 years. In addition to the proposed action, this final EIS considers a No Action Alternative, alternative sites for the facility, alternative sources of low-enriched uranium, and alternative technologies for uranium enrichment. NRC staff have concluded that impacts would be generally small, and application of the environmental monitoring program and the proposed mitigation measures would eliminate or substantially lessen any potential adverse impacts. Unless safety issues mandate otherwise, it is recommended that the proposed license be issued to AES. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The EREF would provide an additional economical domestic source of uranium enrichment services, and increased regional employment, income, and tax revenue. Construction would create 1,687 jobs in the peak year, while operations would produce 3,289 jobs and $92.4 million in income in the first year. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activities would result in some soil erosion, soil compaction, changes in drainage patterns, and disruption to wildlife. The John Leopard Homestead, which has been recommended as eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, would be destroyed. Traffic volume on US 20 would increase. During operations, there would be a potential for small gaseous releases that could contain uranium isotopes, hydrogen fluoride, and uranyl fluoride. A critical accident could result in fatality for workers in close proximity. Six potential accident scenarios predict consequences to the collective offsite public of less than one lifetime cancer fatality. Operation would generate 11,136 pounds of hazardous wastes and 1,222 cylinders of depleted uranium annually. The EREF would be located 1.5 miles from US 20 and the Hell's Half Acre Wilderness Study Area and would create a significant contrast with the surrounding visual environment. LEGAL MANDATES: Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2001 et seq.) and Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).

A 3-D neutronic model for the Syrian Miniature Neutron Source Reactor (MNSR) was developed earlier to conduct the reactor neutronic analysis using the MCNP-4C code. The continuous energy neutron cross sections were evaluated from the ENDF/B-VI library. This model is used in this paper to calculate the following reactor core physics parameters: the clean cold core excess reactivity, calibration of the control rod and calculation its shut down margin, calibration of the top beryllium shim plate reflector, the axial neutron flux distributions in the inner and outer irradiation positions and calculations of the prompt neutron life time ( l p ) and the effective delayed neutron fraction ( beta eff ). Good agreements are noticed between the calculated and the measured results. These agreements indicate that the established model is an accurate representation of Syrian MNSR core and will be used for other calculations in the future.

The fuel proves to be usable if some of the original fuel rods (HEU UAl4-Al fuel) are still simultaneously employed (mixed core) without changing the structure of the actual core. About 3.5712mk Initial Excess Reactivity (IER) is procured. Although the worths of both the control rod and the reactivity devices decrease, the safety of these reactors is higher in the case of the new LEU fuel. If the dimensions of the meat and/or the clad are allowed to change these reactors can be run with a meat 2.15mm outer radius, and a clad 0.58mm thickness. The IER will then be 4.1537mk, and both the control rod (CR) worth and the safety margins decrease.

The thermal-hydraulic and dynamic characteristics are examined in this paper. The fuel behaves similarly to the actual highly enriched uranium fuel in the normal daily operation for both Miniature Neutron Source Reactors and SLOWPOKEs, the cladding temperature reaching about 60 [deg]C. During the simulation of a design basis accident the reactor power peak and temperatures are found to be higher than in the case of the highly enriched uranium fuel for MNSRs, the power peak touching 135 kW, and the cladding temperature reaching over 110 [deg]C in this case. Nevertheless the fuel can be safely used in these reactors.) JF - Progress in Nuclear Energy AU - Albarhoum, M AD - Department of Nuclear Engineering, Atomic Energy Commission, P. O.

The two springs are considered as the most important springs in this Middle East country due to their huge discharge. The delta (super 18) O values are -8.91 and -6.49 ppm for Figeh and Al-sin, respectively. The regression line for both precipitation and groundwater is described by the equation: delta D = 7.9delta (super 18) O + 19.7, which shows no evaporation during precipitation and suggests that the groundwater is mainly from direct infiltration of precipitation. The altitude gradients in the precipitation were estimated to be -0.23 ppm/100 m for delta (super 18) O. The main recharge areas are 2,100 and 750 m.a.s.l., for Figeh and Al-sin Springs, respectively. The tritium concentrations in groundwater are low and very close to the rainfall values of 4.5 and 3.5 TU for Bloudan and Kadmous meteoric stations, respectively. Adopting a model with exponential time distribution, the main residence time of groundwater in Figeh and Al-sin Springs was evaluated to be 50-60 years. A value of around 3.9 and 4.2 billion m (super 3) was obtained for Figeh and Al-sin, respectively, as the maximum groundwater reservoir size.

This approach is mainly based on solving a system of algebraic linear equations for estimating the three model parameters, e.g., the depth to the top (center) of the body (z), the index parameter or the effective magnetization angle (theta ) and the amplitude coefficient or the effective magnetization intensity (k). The utility and validity of this method is demonstrated by analyzing two synthetic magnetic anomalies, using simulated data generated from a known model with different random errors components and a known statistical distribution. This approach was also examined and applied to two real field magnetic anomalies from the United States and Brazil. The agreement between the results obtained by the proposed method and those obtained by other interpretation methods is good and comparable. Moreover, the depth obtained by such an approach is found to be in high accordance with that obtained from drilling information. The advantages of such a proposed method over other existing interpretative techniques are clarified, where it can be generalized to be automatically applicable for interpreting other geological structures described by mathematical formulations.

The forthcoming rulemaking would revise 10 CFR part 72, "Licensing Requirements for the Independent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level Radioactive Waste, and Reactor-Related Greater Than Class C Waste," and 10 CFR part 73, "Physical Protection of Plants and Materials," that would apply during the storage of SNF at an ISFSI and the storage of SNF and HLW at a monitored retrievable storage installation.

SUMMER NUCLEAR STATION UNITS 2 AND 3, APPLICATION FOR COMBINED LICENSES, FAIRFIELD COUNTY, SOUTH CAROLINA. AN - 873131396; 14883-7_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of combined operating licenses (COLs) for the construction and operation of two new nuclear power reactor units at the Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station (VCSNS) in Fairfield County, South Carolina is proposed. South Carolina Electric and Gas (SCE&G), acting for itself and for Santee Cooper (the State-owned electric and water utility, formally called the South Carolina Public Service Authority), submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on March 27, 2008 for the proposed VCSNS Units 2 and 3 which would be located one mile south of the existing Unit 1. The VCSNS site currently contains one pressurized light water reactor and associated facilities located on the southern shore of the Monticello Reservoir in a sparsely populated, largely rural area 26 miles southeast of Columbia. The existing nuclear unit and auxiliary facilities occupy 492 acres with another 784 acres extending into the reservoir. The towns of Jenkinsville, Peak, and Pomona are within a six-mile radius. 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 of 3400 megawatts (MW) with a design gross-electrical output of 1200 MW. New facilities would include the Unit 2 and Unit 3 power blocks, cooling towers, switchyard, discharge structures and blowdown lines, and the proposed independent spent-fuel storage installation. The addition of the units would require six new 230-kilovolt (kV) transmission lines and some existing lines would require upgrading. During the operation of proposed VCSNS Units 2 and 3, makeup water for the circulating-water system would be obtained from the Monticello Reservoir and from withdrawals and exchanges with the Broad River/Parr Reservoir. The intake structure for Units 2 and 3 would be located on the southern shore of Monticello Reservoir. Construction and preconstruction activities would span a total of 123 months, with 30 months dedicated to site clearing and preparation, and 93 months for building Units 2 and 3. Construction would be staggered by two years, for a total construction and preconstruction period of 10.25 years. SCE&G estimates that the onsite workforce would reach a peak of up to 3,600 workers during 2013 and 2015. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers other energy sources and building and operation of new reactors at four alternative sites in South Carolina. The NRC staffs recommendation is that the COLs be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would provide additional baseload electrical generation capacity by 2016 and 2019 within the service areas of SCE&G and Santee Cooper. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 0.66 acres of wetlands and 774 linear feet of streams would be filled; vegetation would be cleared and up to 592 acres of wetlands traversed by new transmission lines; terrestrial habitat onsite and in proposed new transmission-line corridors would be permanently lost; increased habitat fragmentation from transmission lines would have potential impacts on important species. The installation of two water-intake structures on the Monticello Reservoir could affect aquatic biota. Dredging activities may temporarily increase turbidity, siltation, and noise. Temporary impacts on local ambient air quality could occur. Temporary highly localized traffic impacts would occur in an environmental justice community. Cultural resources would be permanently altered by the proposed action and from the installation of transmission lines. Transmission lines would alter the visual landscape.

SUMMER NUCLEAR STATION UNITS 2 AND 3, APPLICATION FOR COMBINED LICENSES, FAIRFIELD COUNTY, SOUTH CAROLINA. AN - 873131350; 14883-7_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of combined operating licenses (COLs) for the construction and operation of two new nuclear power reactor units at the Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station (VCSNS) in Fairfield County, South Carolina is proposed. South Carolina Electric and Gas (SCE&G), acting for itself and for Santee Cooper (the State-owned electric and water utility, formally called the South Carolina Public Service Authority), submitted an application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on March 27, 2008 for the proposed VCSNS Units 2 and 3 which would be located one mile south of the existing Unit 1. The VCSNS site currently contains one pressurized light water reactor and associated facilities located on the southern shore of the Monticello Reservoir in a sparsely populated, largely rural area 26 miles southeast of Columbia. The existing nuclear unit and auxiliary facilities occupy 492 acres with another 784 acres extending into the reservoir. The towns of Jenkinsville, Peak, and Pomona are within a six-mile radius. 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 of 3400 megawatts (MW) with a design gross-electrical output of 1200 MW. New facilities would include the Unit 2 and Unit 3 power blocks, cooling towers, switchyard, discharge structures and blowdown lines, and the proposed independent spent-fuel storage installation. The addition of the units would require six new 230-kilovolt (kV) transmission lines and some existing lines would require upgrading. During the operation of proposed VCSNS Units 2 and 3, makeup water for the circulating-water system would be obtained from the Monticello Reservoir and from withdrawals and exchanges with the Broad River/Parr Reservoir. The intake structure for Units 2 and 3 would be located on the southern shore of Monticello Reservoir. Construction and preconstruction activities would span a total of 123 months, with 30 months dedicated to site clearing and preparation, and 93 months for building Units 2 and 3. Construction would be staggered by two years, for a total construction and preconstruction period of 10.25 years. SCE&G estimates that the onsite workforce would reach a peak of up to 3,600 workers during 2013 and 2015. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS considers other energy sources and building and operation of new reactors at four alternative sites in South Carolina. The NRC staffs recommendation is that the COLs be issued as requested. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would provide additional baseload electrical generation capacity by 2016 and 2019 within the service areas of SCE&G and Santee Cooper. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 0.66 acres of wetlands and 774 linear feet of streams would be filled; vegetation would be cleared and up to 592 acres of wetlands traversed by new transmission lines; terrestrial habitat onsite and in proposed new transmission-line corridors would be permanently lost; increased habitat fragmentation from transmission lines would have potential impacts on important species. The installation of two water-intake structures on the Monticello Reservoir could affect aquatic biota. Dredging activities may temporarily increase turbidity, siltation, and noise. Temporary impacts on local ambient air quality could occur. Temporary highly localized traffic impacts would occur in an environmental justice community.

[Part 2 of 2] T2 - GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS: HOPE CREEK GENERATING STATION AND SALEM NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2, SALEM COUNTY, NEW JERSEY (FORTY-FIFTH FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1996). AN - 868224417; 14860-4_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of operating licenses for the Hope Creek Generating Station (HCGS) and Salem Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1 and 2 (Salem), in Salem County, New Jersey is proposed to extend operations for an additional 20 years in this 45th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996 on promulgation of rules for license renewals. Generic conclusions regarding the environmental impacts for 69 issues that apply to all plants or to plants with specific design or site characteristics are applicable; and 23 additional issues are addressed specifically in this supplement to the final EIS. If the licenses are renewed, federal and state agencies and Public Service Enterprise Group Nuclear, LLC (PSEG) would go on to decide whether the plants should continue to operate based on factors such as the need for power. If the operating licenses are not renewed, HCGS would be shut down on or before August 6, 2026, and Salem Units 1 and 2 would be shut down on or before August 13, 2016 and April 18, 2020, respectively. Salem and HCGS are located at the southern end of Artificial Island in Lower Alloways Creek Township on the Delaware River. Philadelphia is 35 miles northeast and the city of Salem, New Jersey is eight miles northeast of the site. Artificial Island is a 1,500-acre island characterized by tidal marsh and grassland. PSEG owns 740 acres of which the Salem and HCGS facilities occupy 220 acres and 153 acres, respectively. The remainder of the island is undeveloped and is owned by the U.S. Government and the State of New Jersey. The two Salem units are pressurized water reactors designed by Westinghouse Electric with a licensed power of 3,459-megawatt (MW)-thermal. Salem Units 1 and 2 entered commercial service in June 1977 and October 1981, respectively. At 100 percent reactor power, the net electrical output is 1,169 MW-electric for Unit 1 and 1,181 MW-electric for Unit 2. The Salem units have once-through circulating water systems for condenser cooling that withdraws brackish water from the Delaware Estuary. An air-cooled combustion turbine peaking unit rated at 40 MW-electric is also present. The HCGS unit is a boiling water reactor designed by General Electric with a licensed power output of 3,840 MW-thermal and 1,083 MW-electric. HCGS uses a closed-cycle circulating water system for condenser cooling that consists of a natural draft cooling tower and associated withdrawal, circulation, and discharge facilities. HCGS also withdraws brackish water from the Delaware Estuary. In addition to license renewal, other methods of power generation and a No Action Alternative are considered in this supplemental final EIS. Replacement power options considered include supercritical coal-fired generation, natural gas combined-cycle generation, and, as part of a combination alternative, wind power generation combined with energy conservation and energy efficiency. All other alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by Salem and HCGS entail potentially greater impacts than the proposed action and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff recommendation is that license renewal would be reasonable. POSITIVE IMPACTS: License renewal would allow the applicant to continue to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. Continued operation would maintain 1,614 jobs and general tax revenue in the region. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Operations would continue to withdraw condenser cooling water and service water from the Delaware Estuary resulting in entrainment and impingement of fish, shellfish, and other aquatic species. Various waste flows would continue to be delivered to the Delaware River and discharged cooling water would continue to create a thermal plume. Groundwater production at Salem and HCGS could contribute to a gradual reduction in groundwater availability locally. Radiation doses to the public would continue at current levels which are deemed safe.

AN - 868222787; 14860-4_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of operating licenses for the Hope Creek Generating Station (HCGS) and Salem Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1 and 2 (Salem), in Salem County, New Jersey is proposed to extend operations for an additional 20 years in this 45th supplement to the final generic EIS of May 1996 on promulgation of rules for license renewals. Generic conclusions regarding the environmental impacts for 69 issues that apply to all plants or to plants with specific design or site characteristics are applicable; and 23 additional issues are addressed specifically in this supplement to the final EIS. If the licenses are renewed, federal and state agencies and Public Service Enterprise Group Nuclear, LLC (PSEG) would go on to decide whether the plants should continue to operate based on factors such as the need for power. If the operating licenses are not renewed, HCGS would be shut down on or before August 6, 2026, and Salem Units 1 and 2 would be shut down on or before August 13, 2016 and April 18, 2020, respectively. Salem and HCGS are located at the southern end of Artificial Island in Lower Alloways Creek Township on the Delaware River. Philadelphia is 35 miles northeast and the city of Salem, New Jersey is eight miles northeast of the site. Artificial Island is a 1,500-acre island characterized by tidal marsh and grassland. PSEG owns 740 acres of which the Salem and HCGS facilities occupy 220 acres and 153 acres, respectively. The remainder of the island is undeveloped and is owned by the U.S. Government and the State of New Jersey. The two Salem units are pressurized water reactors designed by Westinghouse Electric with a licensed power of 3,459-megawatt (MW)-thermal. Salem Units 1 and 2 entered commercial service in June 1977 and October 1981, respectively. At 100 percent reactor power, the net electrical output is 1,169 MW-electric for Unit 1 and 1,181 MW-electric for Unit 2. The Salem units have once-through circulating water systems for condenser cooling that withdraws brackish water from the Delaware Estuary. An air-cooled combustion turbine peaking unit rated at 40 MW-electric is also present. The HCGS unit is a boiling water reactor designed by General Electric with a licensed power output of 3,840 MW-thermal and 1,083 MW-electric. HCGS uses a closed-cycle circulating water system for condenser cooling that consists of a natural draft cooling tower and associated withdrawal, circulation, and discharge facilities. HCGS also withdraws brackish water from the Delaware Estuary. In addition to license renewal, other methods of power generation and a No Action Alternative are considered in this supplemental final EIS. Replacement power options considered include supercritical coal-fired generation, natural gas combined-cycle generation, and, as part of a combination alternative, wind power generation combined with energy conservation and energy efficiency. All other alternatives capable of meeting the needs currently served by Salem and HCGS entail potentially greater impacts than the proposed action and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff recommendation is that license renewal would be reasonable. POSITIVE IMPACTS: License renewal would allow the applicant to continue to meet the needs of its regional energy purchasers. Continued operation would maintain 1,614 jobs and general tax revenue in the region. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Operations would continue to withdraw condenser cooling water and service water from the Delaware Estuary resulting in entrainment and impingement of fish, shellfish, and other aquatic species. Various waste flows would continue to be delivered to the Delaware River and discharged cooling water would continue to create a thermal plume. Groundwater production at Salem and HCGS could contribute to a gradual reduction in groundwater availability locally. Radiation doses to the public would continue at current levels which are deemed safe. 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).

Various approaches are currently being applied to mitigate these constraints. However, an aspect of plant developmental genetics little known in cassava is the role that microRNAs (miRNAs) play in gene regulation. miRNAs are 20 - 24 nucleotide long non-protein-coding RNAs that play important roles in post-transcriptional gene silencing in many organisms. Thorough understanding of the mechanisms involved in miRNAs mediated post-transcriptional gene regulation will have implications for crop production improvement. The potential of miRNAs for cassava improvement and also some data obtained on cassava miRNAs using comparative genomics analysis have been briefly discussed. 17 miRNA families and target genes in cassava that are also conserved in other plant species have been revealed. However, the ESTs representing seven of these miRNA families produced foldbacks that show more than 3 nucleotides not involved in canonical base pairing within a loop or bulge in the mature miRNA: RNA* dimer, thus were not considered miRNA secondary structures. Consistent with previous reports, majority of the target genes identified are transcription factors. Other targets appear to play roles in diverse physiological processes. Furthermore, a detailed description and insight into some of the current bioinformatic resources and approaches applicable to cassava have been discussed. Such information will further enhance the rapid discovery and analysis of more novel miRNAs in cassava towards its improvement.

N1 - Last updated - 2011-04-04 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Fault displacement hazard for strike-slip faults AN - 875013231; 2011-056685 AB - In this paper we present a methodology, data, and regression equations for calculating the fault rupture hazard at sites near steeply dipping, strike-slip faults. We collected and digitized on-fault and off-fault displacement data for 9 global strike-slip earthquakes ranging from moment magnitude M 6.5 to M 7.6 and supplemented these with displacements from 13 global earthquakes compiled by Wesnousky (2008), who considers events up to M 7.9. Displacements on the primary fault fall off at the rupture ends and are often measured in meters, while displacements on secondary (off-fault) or distributed faults may measure a few centimeters up to more than a meter and decay with distance from the rupture. Probability of earthquake rupture is less than 15% for cells 200 mX200 m and is less than 2% for 25 mX25 m cells at distances greater than 200 m from the primary-fault rupture. Therefore, the hazard for off-fault ruptures is much lower than the hazard near the fault. Our data indicate that rupture displacements up to 35 cm can be triggered on adjacent faults at distances out to 10 km or more from the primary-fault rupture. An example calculation shows that, for an active fault which has repeated large earthquakes every few hundred years, fault rupture hazard analysis should be an important consideration in the design of structures or lifelines that are located near the principal fault, within about 150 m of well-mapped active faults with a simple trace and within 300 m of faults with poorly defined or complex traces.

A total of 2,580 unvaccinated Syrian female sheep sera samples were tested for B. melitensis antibodies detection using four serological methods: the Rose Bengal test (RBT), the serum agglutination test (SAT), the complement fixation test (CFT) and an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA). In addition, 2,375 milk samples were collected, then milk ring test (MRT) and bacterial isolation test were employed to evaluate the natural organism shedding. The samples were considered positive in 66%, 64%, and 60% when we employed the RBT, SAT, and iELISA tests, respectively. Whereas, the CFT test revealed the smallest number of positive samples. By using the MRT, the total prevalence of brucellosis was nearly 38% of samples. A large variation was observed concerning the studied areas, ranging from 24% in Tartous to 44% in both Damascus and Damascus rural areas. Brucella was isolated from only 677 samples out of the 2,375 female sheep milk samples.

Risks associated with the addition of top beryllium shims is avoided by pouring heavy water in a polyethylene tube which connects a polyethylene container posted in the ST to the top of the reactor. The fuel cycle lifetime is shortened to about 5-6 years, but a constant volumetric reactivity is obtained. A less safe reactor is obtained whenever beryllium or heavy water is used as reflector. The presence of the upper reflector decreases the control rod worth anyway. JF - Progress in Nuclear Energy AU - Albarhoum, M AD - Department of Nuclear Engineering, Atomic Energy Commission, P.O.

[...] 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.

Mr. Saporito requested in his petition that the NRC: (1) Order a cold shutdown mode of operation for VY because of leaking radioactive tritium; and (2) issue a confirmatory order modifying the NRC-issued license for VY so that the licensee must bring the nuclear reactor to a cold shutdown mode of operation until the licensee can provide definitive reasonable assurance to the NRC, under affirmation, that the reactor will be operated in full compliance with the regulations in 10 CFR Part 50, "Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities," and Appendix A, "General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants," to 10 CFR Part 50, Criterion 60, "Control of Releases of Radioactive Materials to the Environment," and Criterion 64, "Monitoring Radioactivity Releases," and other NRC regulations and authority.
