This attachment provides an update of milestone accomplishments since submittal of the fifth status report to the OIP (Reference 3), including any changes to the compliance method, schedule, or need for relief/relaxation and the basis, if any.

Milestone Accomplishments The following milestone(s) have been completed since the submittal of the fifth status report for the OIP, and are current as of February 1,2016:

  • The final Site Response Plan has been approved by NPPD from the National SAFER Response Center (NSRC) and the NSRC has been declared operational for CNS.

Milestone Schedule Status The following table provides an update to Attachment 2 of the OIP. It provides the activity status of each item, and whether the expected completion date has changed. The dates are planning dates subject to change as design and implementation details are developed.

The revised milestone target completion dates do not impact the Order implementation date.
