SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR MATERIAL SAFETY AND SAFEGUARDS
! RELATED TO AMENDMENT NO. 4 TO MATERIALS LICENSE NO. SNM-1999 KERR-McGEE CORPORATION CUSHING REFINERY SITE DOCKET NO. 70-3073
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Kerr-McGee Corporation (the licensee) in its letter dated June 3. 1993, submitted information delineating boundaries of radioactive materials areas, restricted areas, and areas outside of restricted areas where licensed materials exist. In accordance with Condition 11.D of Materials License SNM-1999. the licensee submitted this information as a license amendment request.
2.0 BACKGROUND
On April 6. 1993. U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Materials License SNM-1999 authorizing 30ssession of contaminated soil, sludge, sediment, trash. builjing rub]le, and any other contaminated material, at tl.a licensee's Cushing site. Condition 11.D of Materials License SNM-1999, states that "Kerr-McGee shall submit, by license amendment request. before June 1.
1993. the proposed boundaries of all radioactive areas as defined in 10 CFR 20.3, and areas outside of restricted areas, where licensed materials exist l which must be secured from unauthorized removal per 10 CFR 20.207." The i licensee by letter June 3. 1993, provided the required information. ;
l 3.0 EVALUATION The licensee's June 3. 1993. letter submitted the required information to satisfy the requirements of Condition 11.0 of Materials License SNM-1999.
Since the terms of Condition 11.0 have been met. the staff believes that maintaining this condition is unnecessary and it should be deleted.
Further the staff has determined that amending the Cushing license to include this type of information was inappropriate, because if the licensee had discovered a new area of contamination the licensee would have been in non-
~
compliance with its license. The licensee would then have had to submit a recuest to amend its license to reflect new condition of the Cushing site. In adcition, in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 70.25(g), the licensee is required to keep records of information important to the safe and effective decommissioning of the facility in an identified location until the license is terminated by the Commission. Thus. this information is available to the NRC without requiring it to be included in the license.

4.0 STATE CONSULTATION
} The Oklahoma State official was notified of the proposed issuance of the i amendment. The State official had no comments.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The amendment deletes an administrative requirement to submit information
- ' delineating boundaries of radioactive materials areas, restricted areas, and areas outside of restricted areas where licensed materials exists.
- Accordingly, the amendment meets the criteria for categorical exclusion set 2
forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(10). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(c)(10)Sno environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in
! connection with the issuance of the amendment.
6.0 CONCLUSION
The Commission has concluded, based on the considerations discussed above, that issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
