Dear Ntale Kajumba:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has published for public comment the draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the Westinghouse Electric Company, LLCs (WEC) request to renew its operating license for the Columbia Fuel Fabrication Facility (CFFF) for an additional 40 years. The DEIS is publicly available from the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. The ADAMS accession number for the DEIS is ML21209A213.
