BILLING CODE 7590–01–P
NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. Redacted; License Nos.
Redacted; EA–07–082]
In the Matter of Certain 10 CFR Part 50
Licensees Who Transport Spent
Nuclear Fuel Under the Provisions of
10 CFR PART 71; Order Modifying
Licenses (Effective Immediately)
I.
The licensees identified in
Attachment 1 to this Order have been
issued a specific license by the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC
or Commission) authorizing the
possession of spent nuclear fuel and a
general license authorizing the
transportation of spent nuclear fuel [in
a transportation package approved by
the Commission] in accordance with the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended,
and 10 CFR parts 50 and 71.
Commission regulations for the
shipment of spent nuclear fuel at 10
CFR 73.37(a) require these licensees to
maintain a physical protection system
that meets the requirements contained
in 10 CFR 73.37(b), (c), (d), and (e).
II.
On September 11, 2001, terrorists
simultaneously attacked targets in New
PO 00000 Frm 00102 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\30MYN1.SGM
York, NY, and Washington, DC,
utilizing large commercial aircraft as
weapons. In response to the attacks and
intelligence information subsequently
obtained, the Commission issued a
number of Safeguards and Threat
Advisories to its licensees in order to
strengthen licensees’ capabilities and
readiness to respond to a potential
attack on a nuclear facility or regulated
activity. The Commission has also
communicated with other Federal, State
and local government agencies and
industry representatives to discuss and
evaluate the current threat environment
in order to assess the adequacy of
security measures at licensed facilities.
In addition, the Commission has been
conducting a comprehensive review of
its safeguards and security programs
and requirements.
As a result of its consideration of
current safeguards and security plan
requirements, as well as a review of
information provided by the intelligence
community, the Commission has
determined that certain additional
security measures are required to be
implemented by licensees as prudent,
interim measures, to address the current
threat environment in a consistent
manner. Therefore, the Commission is
imposing requirements, as set forth in
licensees identified in Attachment 1 of
this Order.1 These additional security
requirements, which supplement
existing regulatory requirements, will
provide the Commission with
reasonable assurance that the common
defense and security continue to be
adequately protected in the current
threat environment. These requirements
will remain in effect until the
Commission determines otherwise.
The Commission recognizes that
licensees may have already initiated
many of the measures set forth in
Attachment 2 to this Order in response
to previously issued Safeguards and
Threat Advisories or on their own. It is
also recognized that some measures may
not be possible or necessary for all
shipments of spent nuclear fuel, or may
need to be tailored to accommodate the
licensees’ specific circumstances to
achieve the intended objectives and
avoid any unforeseen effect on the safe
transport of spent nuclear fuel.
Although the additional security
measures implemented by licensees in
response to the Safeguards and Threat
Advisories have been adequate to
provide reasonable assurance of
adequate protection of common defense
and security, in light of the current
1 Attachments 1 and 2 contain safeguards
information and will not be released to the public.
