In this request, Westinghouse stated that it has completed decommissioning and decontamination of the Hematite facility located at 3300 State Road P, Festus, Missouri, in accordance with its approved Decommissioning Plan (ADAMS Accession No. ML112101699).
3 On the basis of decommissioning activities carried out by Westinghouse, the NRC evaluation of the Final Status Surveys (FSS) and Final Status Survey Report (FSSR), combined with the results of NRCs independent and confirmatory surveys, and on-site inspections, the NRC staff concluded that the site radiological levels meet the requirements in part 20 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
Standards for Protection Against Radiation, section 20.1402, Radiological criteria for unrestricted use. A safety evaluation report (SER) documenting the NRC staffs review of Westinghouses remediation activities, the FSS, and the FSSR of the Hematite site are available in ADAMS under Accession No. ML18241A066. This SER, coupled with Westinghouse providing NRC form 314 and the records required by 10 CFR 70.51(a),
documents that the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1402 and 10 CFR 70.38(k) have been met. As such, the NRC considers the site acceptable for unrestricted use, and Source Materials License No. SNM-00033 has been terminated.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 28th day of September, 2018.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
