II. Discussion In accordance with section 110.70(b) of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), the NRC is noticing the receipt of an export license
amendment and renewal application
submitted by DSSI on February 9, 2018, for the export of Canadian-origin low-
level radioactive waste from the State of
Tennessee to Canada. The existing
license authorizes the export of up to
378,000 kilograms of treated and
processed low-level radioactive waste.
The amendment and renewal requests:
(1) An extension of the license from
March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2022; (2)
a change to the license point of contact;
(3) a change in the name of one ultimate
foreign consignee from Atomic Energy
of Canada Limited to Canadian Nuclear
Laboratories; (4) removal of the
reference to Waste Classification as
defined in 10 CFR 61.55 and reference
to Table A2 values of 49 CFR 173.435
from the waste description, since 10
CFR 61.55 is not applicable because
treated and processed waste are to be
returned to Canada; (5) removal of
previous references to Import License
No. IW012/05; (6) updated of
radioactivity levels; (7) inclusion of a
port of exit in the State of New York and
a port of exit in the State of Michigan.
The NRC is noticing the request to
amend and renew the license to export
radioactive waste, open the opportunity
for public comment, and open the
opportunity to file a request for a
hearing or petition for leave to intervene
to June 14, 2018. Any request for
hearing or petition for leave to intervene
shall be served by the requestor or petitioner upon the applicant, the Office

Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555; the Secretary, U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555; and the Executive Secretary, U.S. Department of State, Washington, DC 20520. Hearing requests and
intervention petitions must include the
information specified in 10 CFR
110.82(b).

- I. Background In 1990, Congress passed the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
of 1990, to provide for regular
adjustment for inflation of civil
monetary penalties (CMPs). As amended
by the Debt Collection Improvement Act
of 1996, the FCPIAA required that the
head of each Federal agency review, and
if necessary, adjust by regulation the
CMPs assessed under statutes enforced
by the agency at least once every four
years. On November 2, 2015, the President of the United States signed into law the
2015 Improvements Act, which further
amended the FCPIAA and requires
Federal agencies to adjust their CMPs
annually for inflation no later than
January 15 of each year. These
requirements apply to the NRC's
maximum CMP amounts for (1) a
violation of the Atomic Energy Act (AEA) of 1954, as amended, or any
regulation or order issued under the
AEA, codified in section 2.205(j) of title
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Civil Penalties; and (2) a false
claim or statement made under the
Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act, codified in 10 CFR 13.3, Basis for Civil
Penalties and Assessments.
Pursuant to the 2015 Improvements Act, the NRC codified on January 12, VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:27 May 14, 2018Jkt 244001PO 00000Frm 00095Fmt 4703Sfmt 4703E:\FR\FM\15MYN1.SGM15MYN1 daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
