NRC NEWS U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Office of Public Affairs Telephone: 301/415-8200 Washington, DC 20555-0001 E-mail: opa@nrc.gov Web Site: www.nrc.gov No.02-006 January 16, 2002 NRC RELEASES COMPLETE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL STATEMENT ON PROPOSED FACILITY NEAR TOOELE, UTAH The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is releasing its complete Final Environmental Impact Statement on the application by Private Fuel Storage, Limited Liability Company (PFS) for a license to construct and operate an independent spent nuclear fuel storage facility on the Goshute Indian Reservation near Tooele, Utah.
Earlier this month, the NRC issued a redacted version of the report, with some information removed, as a cautious measure to avoid possibly providing information that could be helpful to a potential terrorist. (See press release #2-002.) But after further review and consideration, the agency decided that the complete document could be released without meaningful risk.
Copies of the complete Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Construction and Operation of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation on the Reservation of the Skull Valley Band of Goshute Indians and the Related Transportation Facility in Tooele County, Utah, NUREG-1714, were mailed to the parties to an NRC hearing proceeding on the application and to persons who commented on the draft environmental impact statement.
A copy is also available through the NRCs Electronic Reading Room at www.nrc.gov as an Agencywide Document Access and Management System (ADAMS) document, and available for reproduction (for a fee) through the NRC Public Document Room, Washington, D.C. 20555, telephone:
301/415-4737 or 1/800 397-4209, e-mail: pdr@nrc.gov . The Public Document Room staff is available to provide help in accessing ADAMS.
