. 0 DCCL',EST R%pg UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION NEGATIVE DECLARATION REGARDING PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO MATERIALS LICENSE SNM-1773 DUKE POWER C0ttPANY DOCKET NO. 70-2623 The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) is consider-ing the issuance of an amendment to Materials License No. SNM-1773 issued to Duke Power Company. The proposed amendment would authorize the receipt and storage of Oconee Nuclear Station spent fuel at the McGuire facility located in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, in accordance with the licensee's application for amendment dated March 9, 1978. Notice of proposed issuance of this amendment to Materials License SNM-1773 offering an opportunity for public participation in connection with this action was published in the Federal Register on July 28, 1978 (43 FR 32905).
In response to Petitions filed for Leave to Intervene, hearings will be held pursuant to 10 CFR Part 2.
This will be the subject of a separate notice and will be published in the Federal Register at a later date.
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards, has prepared an environmental impact appraisal in accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 for the proposed amendment and has concluded that an environmental impact statement for this particular action is not warranted because there will be no environmental impact significantly affecting the quality of the human environment attributable to the proposed action. A negative declaration to this effect is appropriate.
