SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.106, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
is providing notice that it is terminating license 19-10306-02 for the
U.S. Department of the Army, (Army or licensee), and releasing the
Building 7304 (Vault) property in Fort Belvoir, Virginia, for
unrestricted use. The Army's request for an amendment to authorize
decommissioning of its former radioactive waste storage facility in
Fort Belvoir, Virginia, was previously noticed in the Federal Register
on December 28, 2004 (69 FR 77779), with a notice of an opportunity to
request a hearing.
The Army provided a final radiological status survey to demonstrate
the site meets the license termination criteria in subpart E of 10 CFR
part 20. In addition, NRC staff conducted independent in-process
measurements of residual contamination remaining at the site.
The NRC staff has evaluated the Army's request, has reviewed the
results of the final radiological survey, has performed in-process
confirmatory measurements throughout the site property, and has
determined that the site cleanup meets the unrestricted release dose
criteria in 10 CFR 20.1402. The Commission has concluded that the site
is suitable for release for unrestricted use, and has terminated the
license for the Fort Belvoir, Virginia property. The staff prepared a
Safety Evaluation Report (SER) to support the proposed action.
