    Summary Report for the Full Scope Environmental Audit for the Clinch River Nuclear Early Site Permit Application

    January 11, 2018 MEMORANDUM TO: Joseph Colaccino, Chief Licensing Branch 3 Division of New Reactor Licensing Office of New Reactors FROM: Tamsen Dozier, Project Manager /RA/ Licensing Branch 3 Division of New Reactor Licensing Office of New Reactors SUBJECT: SUMMARY REPORT FOR THE FULL SCOPE ENVIRONMENTAL AUDIT FOR THE CLINCH RIVER NUCLEAR EARLY SITE PERMIT APPLICATION By letter dated May 12, 2016, Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) submitted an application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for an early site permit (ESP) for the Clinch River Nuclear (CRN) Site located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. TVA’s ESP application included an Environmental Report (ER). TVA subsequently provided supplemental information in support of the application and the NRC staff accepted the application for docketing and detailed review on December 30, 2016. On April 13, 2017, the NRC issued a notice of intent to prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) and to conduct scoping for TVA’s ESP application (82 FR 17885). In support of the NRC staff’s environmental review of TVA’s ESP application and development of the EIS, the NRC conducted an audit of data and information used to support the ER, as supplemented. The audit was conducted in two parts and the NRC environmental staff was joined by its contractor project team from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and by staff from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (jointly referred to as the review team). The face-to-face portion of the audit was held primarily at TVA offices in Knoxville, Tennessee from May 15-19, 2017.

Plaintiffs contend Defendants’ actions “caused CNI to grossly overpay to acquire control of GEG” and that such “‘overpayment’” was consideration for nothing of value and amounted to a bold diversion of funds from the treasury of the [Cherokee] Nation.” Id. at ¶ 8.

    State Reforms Reducing Collateral Consequences for People with Criminal Records: 2011-2012 Legislative Round-Up1

    A project of LEGISLATIVE UPDATE September 2012 State Reforms Reducing Collateral Consequences for People with Criminal Records: 2011-2012 Legislative Round-Up1 Over the past forty years the prison population in the United States has skyrocketed 600% and the number of Americans with felony convictions has grown to 19.8 million adults or 8.6% of the adult population.2 According to the National Employment Law Project (NELP), an estimated 65 million Americans have a criminal record.3 Although it might be reasonable to assume that individuals who have completed their sentences are free from conviction-related constraints,4 according to Attorney General Eric Holder, the American Bar Association (ABA) has identified over 38,000 penalties, called collateral consequences that can impact people long after they complete their criminal sentence.5 Collateral consequences are the additional penalties tied to a conviction that greatly impact an individual’s capacity to engage politically, economically and socially upon their reentry to society. These consequences include barriers to housing, education, and employment, felony disenfranchisement, and ineligibility for public benefits. Collateral consequences are distinct from direct consequences of convictions in that they are not factored into the calculation of punishment or sentencing, and are triggered outside the jurisdiction of the courts. Nationwide there is a growing bipartisan awareness of the long-term negative impact of collateral consequences and states are taking steps to combat the ill effects of these sanctions. 1 This paper is a collaboration of the ACLU, Crossroad Bible Institute, The Sentencing Project, the National Employment Law Project (NELP), and the National H.I.R.E.

    Underthedome

    UNDER the DOME JANUARY 20, 2015 Welcome Under the Dome is a weekly update on actions and activities of the West Virginia Legislature, provided for West Virginia University faculty and staff by WVU’s Office of State, Corporate and Local Relations. A Historic Legislative Session Begins The 81st Legislature of the State of West Virginia convened on January 14, 2015. For the first time in 80 years, Republicans gained control of both the Senate and the House of Delegates. The Senate elected Bill Cole (R-Mercer) as President, and the House of Delegates elected Tim Armstead (R-Kanawha) as Speaker. Senator Jeff Kessler (D-Marshall) is the Senate Minority Leader, and Delegate Tim Miley (D-Harrison) is the House Minority Leader. State of the State Address West Virginia Governor Earl Ray Tomblin presented his fourth State of the State address on January 14 in the House Chamber at the State Capitol. Highlights from his address include: • The need for cooperation between both parties • The establishment of a STEM network to review education initiatives and refine local programs to improve service to students • The need for additional legal reforms • The need for alternative certification of teachers The Budget The Governor’s budget proposal to the Legislature includes a 1.4 percent reduction in higher education’s base budget allocation for each institution (about $2M for WVU). Additionally, in previous budgets passed by the Legislature, certain programs had dedicated funding within our budget. All told, WVU had approximately $6.7M in programming with dedicated funding within our operating appropriation. The Governor’s budget proposal removes all language that dedicated money for those programs and also removed 80 percent of the funding for those programs.
