7590-01 UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REGARDING PROPOSED ORDER AUTHORIZING DISMANTLING OF THE REACTOR AND DISPOSITION OF COMPONENT PARTS THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT LOS ANGELES DOCKET NO. 50-142 The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is considering issuance of an Order duthorizing the University of California at Los Angeles to dismantle the UCLA Argonaut Reactor Facility on its campus in Los Angeles, California and to dispose of the reactor components in accordance with the application dated October 29, 1985, as supplemented.
The,0rder would authorize Phase I of the dismantling of the facility and disposal of the components in accordance with the application for decontamination and dismantling, dated October 29, 1985, as supplemented.
Opportunity for hearing was afforded by the Proposed Issuance of Orders i
Authorizing Disposition of Component Parts and Termination of Facility License published in the Federal Register on September 24, 1984 at 49 FR 37484.
Finding of No Significant Environmental Impact The Commission has determined not to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement for the proposed action. The Caanission has prepared an
$$g2gDOC 0
2 W
. Environmental Assessment of this action, dated July 14, 1986, and has concluded that the proposed action will not have a significant effect on the quality of human environment.
i Summary of Environmental Impacts The environmental impacts associated with the dismantling and decontam-ination operations are discussed in an Environmental Assessment associated with this action, dated July 14, 1986. The operations are calculated to result in a total radiation exposure for workers for the entire Phase I of the project to be less than 10 person-rem. The Environmental Assessment concluded that the operation will not result in any significant environ-mental impacts on air, water, land or biota in the area, and that an Environmental Impact Statement need not be prepared. These conclusions were based on the fact that all proposed operations are carefully planned and 7
controlled, all contaminated components will be removed, packaged, and shipped offsite, and that the radioactive wastes from the facility are within the limits of 10 CFR Part 20 and are as low as is reasonable achievable (ALARA).
For further details with respect to this proposed action, see the application for dismantling, decontamination and license termination dated October 29, 1985, as supplemented, the Environmental Assessment, and the l
Safety Evaluation prepared by the staff. These documents and this Finding of No Significant Environmental Impact are available for public inspection at the l
Commission's Public Document Room, 1717 H Street N.W., Washington, D. C. 20555.
