II.
Environmental Assessments:
Total Number of EAs completed by NRC during the fiscal year 89 Number of those EAs your agency prepared with CAs 0
The reason(s) from the list below that cooperating agency status was not established or was ended (NOTE: agencies may replace this row of the report with a paragraph describing the most frequent reasons)
Reason 5 for all completed EAs Reasons CA status was not established or why it ended:
- 1. Potential Cooperating Agency lacked special expertise and jurisdiction by law.
- 2. Potential Cooperating Agency lacked authority to enter into an agreement to be a CA.
- 3. Potential or active CA lacked agreement with the agency. (e.g., unable to accept the scope of the analysis or the purpose and need for the proposed action; unable to accept responsibilities and/or milestones for analysis and documentation; unable to develop information/analysis of all reasonable alternatives; unable to prevent release of predecisional information; misrepresents the process or the findings presented in the analysis and documentation).
- 4. Potential or active CA lacked capacity (training or resources) to participate. (e.g., unable to participate during scoping and/or throughout the preparation of the analysis and documentation as necessary to meet process milestones; unable to identify significant issues, eliminate minor issues, identify issues previously studied, or identify conflicts with the objectives of regional, State and local land use plans, policies and controls in a timely manner; unable to assist in preparing portions of the review and analysis and help resolve significant environmental issues in a timely manner; unable to provide resources to support scheduling and critical milestones).
- 5. Other (specify). NRC routinely and extensively consults with Federal, State, Tribal and local entities during development of EISs and EAs.
Formal Cooperating Agency status is usually not used. NRC believes that informal arrangements achieve the spirit of Cooperating Agency status.
