SUBJECT:
NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF THE FINAL PLANT-SPECIFIC SUPPLEMENT 32 TO THE GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS REGARDING WOLF CREEK GENERATING STATION (TAC NO. MD3182)
Dear Mr. Garrett:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has completed the final plant-specific Supplement 32 to NUREG-1437, ?Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants (GEIS), regarding the renewal of operating license NPF-42 for an additional 20 years of operation for the Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS). Enclosed is a copy of the final supplement and the associated Federal Register Notice of Availability. This notice advises the public that the final supplement is publicly available at the NRC Public Document Room (PDR) or from the NRC=s Agency-wide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC website at http://adamswebsearch.nrc.gov/dologin.htm. The Accession Number for the final Supplement 32 to the GEIS is ML081260608. In addition, the Kansas Public Library Burlington Branch in Burlington, Kansas, has agreed to make the final Supplement available for public inspection.
As discussed in Section 9.3 of the final supplement, the staff recommends that the Commission determine that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for the WCGS are not so great that preserving the option of license renewal for energy planning decision makers would be unreasonable. This recommendation is based on: (1) the analysis and findings in the GEIS; (2) the Environmental Report submitted by Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation; (3) consultation with Federal, State, and local agencies; (4) the staff=s own independent review; and (5) the staff=s consideration of public comments.
T. Garrett A separate Notice of Availability of the final supplemental environmental impact statement will be placed in the Federal Register through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact the NRC Environmental Project Manager, Mr. Tam Tran, at 301-415-3617 or by e-mail at Tam.Tran@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/
