Murley In accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 51.53(b), the District hereby submits its Supplement to Rancho Seco's Environmental Report - Post Operating License Stage. This report provides an assessment of the environmental effects of decommissioning Rancho Seco, and provides a comparison of those impacts with the NRC's Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GEIS), NUREG-0586. The report concludes that the decommissioning attributes for Rancho Seco fall within the envelope of the GEIS, and that the environmental effects of decommissioning Rancho Seco are not significant, given the mitigation measures proposed in the report.

Seco Nuclear Generating Station (RSNGS). Accordingly, on August 29, 1989, the District notified the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) of its intent to seek amendments to the RSNGS operating license and decommission the facility. The NRC acknowledged this notification on November 27, 1989. The purpose of decommissioning Rancho Seco is to allow the facility to be taken safely from service and to reduce the residual radioactivity to a level that permits the release of the site for unrestricted use and termination of the operating license. The District has selected the SAFSTOR option for decommissioning Rancho Seco. A discussion of other decommissioning alternatives examined, and the reasoning for selecting SAFSTOR with Deferred-DECON, is* provided in Chapter 6. In accordance with 10 CFR 51.53(b), the District submits this Supplement to the Rancho Seco Environmental Report- Post Operating License Stage. This environmental report addresses the actual or potential environmental impacts associated with Custodial and Hardened-SAFSTOR, and provides an initial assessment of the effects of Deferred-DECON. The environmental impacts associated with Deferred-DECON will be further evaluated after the District develops detailed plans for Deferred-DECON, towards the end of the Hardened-SAFSTOR dormancy stage. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the District has also conducted an initial study of the potential environmental impacts resulting from closing and decommissioning Rancho Seco. Based on the results of that study, the District staff has prepared a Negative Declaration stating that decommissioning would not have a significant environmental impact. In addition to the environmental impacts associated with the. District's proposed radiological decommissioning activities, the CEQA study addresses additional potential environmental impacts associated with other plant closure activities. These additional environmental impacts are outside the scope of proposed decommissioning activities and are therefore outside the NRC's scope of review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). 1-1 SUPPLEMENT TO RANCHO SECO ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT -- POST OPERATING LICENSE STAGE The CEQA report has previously been sent to the NRC for review and comment. 1-2 SUPPLEMENT TO RANCHO SECO ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT-- POST OPERATING LICENSE STAGE 1.2 DECOMMISSIONING PLAN DESCRIPTION 1.2.1 Description of SAFSTOR Alternative Under SAFSTOR with Deferred-DECON, Rancho Seco will be maintained in a dormant condition that allows the facility to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated (Deferred-DECON) to levels that permit its release for unrestricted use. The Rancho Seco Decommissioning Plan (DP) details the District's decommissioning strategy using the SAFSTOR alternative. This strategy includes the following three stages: 1. Custodial-SAFSTOR, where the spent fuel is stored in the spent fuel pool. 2. Hardened-SAFSTOR, which will be implemented after the fuel has been moved into dry storage at the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation. 3. Deferred-DECON, which involves decontamination and dismantlement of the facility. The District has determined the SAFSTOR alternative provides for reasonably prompt license termination considering the limitationsand of spent fuel storage, waste disposal, occupational exposure, funding. The Custodial and Hardened-SAFSTOR portions of this alternative reasonably ensure the protection of public health and safety from residual radioactivity remaining at the site without the need for extensive modifications to the facility. During SAFSTOR, the facility will be left intact with structures maintained in a sound condition. Systems not required to be operational for maintenance and surveillance purposes are drained, de-energized, and secured. Plant staff will perform minimal cleaning or removal of loose radioactive contamination and/or fixation and sealing of remaining contamination. Access to contaminated areas is sealed and/or secured to provide controlled access for inspection and maintenance. SAFSTOR Duration The

We think of them waiting for the call to arms, Fighting to save their families and farms; We picture the furrow where the dropped plough lies, The women watching them go with quiet eyes. Is it because they died so many springs Ago that we forget the other things They did from day to day? They must have wept, Laughed, talked of the future. I think they kept Their dreams tended as gently as their corn, And planned great things for children yet unborn. And as I watch the spring unfold each year, I think that they held beauty almost as dear As freedom. The battle won, they heeded her command, And planted dogwood in their promised land.

My assignment was to research the history of the Wilton Rancheria in Sacramento County, California. The investigations were to examine purchase of the land, relations between its residents and the federal government, identities of the families residing on the Rancheria, operation of community governance, and Termination. The project also involved examination of tribal distribution in the area of the Wilton Rancheria and the unratified treaty of September 18, 1851. Research for this project was carried out at the National Archives, San Bruno, California, and in selected monographs and books, many of them published by the University of California, Berkeley, and by the Smithsonian Institution. I have drawn on more than fifty years of experience working with these materials. These labors commenced in 1964 with graduate study in History and Anthropology at the University of California, Los Angeles. My chosen field was ethnohistory, particularly the tribes of California and the American West. I carried out all of the research and drafted my report.

  • Canal Context and Evaluation Procedures
    WATER CONVEYANCE SYSTEMS IN CALIFORNIA Historic Context Development and Evaluation Procedures Prepared Jointly by: JRP Historical Consulting Services California Department of Transportation 1490 Drew Avenue, Suite 110 Environmental Program/Cultural Studies Office Davis, CA 95616 Sacramento, CA 95814 December 2000 December 2000 Water Conveyance Systems in California ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This report reflects the contributions of many individuals. Its strengths can be attributed to the diverse professional backgrounds and experiences of two multidisciplinary teams, one from the private sector and one from state service. John Snyder of the Caltrans Cultural Studies Office in Sacramento was responsible for the vision that prompted the study, and he oversaw the contract with JRP Historical Consulting Services to produce the initial document. JRP staff, including Jeff Crawford, Rand Herbert, Steve Mikesell, Stephen Wee, and Meta Bunse authored the draft report under that contract. In June 1995, JRP submitted the manuscript to Caltrans, completing their responsibilities under the contract. JRP’s excellent work constitutes the body of this report, with subsequent work by Caltrans staff to meet additional needs not foreseen in the original contract. Caltrans Cultural Studies Office staff Thad Van Bueren, Dorene Clement, Greg King, Gloria Scott, and Laurie Welch contributed to the revisions and preparation of supplementary material, while Kendall Schinke assisted with graphics production. Throughout the process, Meta Bunse and other staff at JRP Historical Consulting Services cooperated in the revisions and rendered invaluable assistance, particularly with regard to the conversion of electronic files. The authors gratefully acknowledge the many professional colleagues who shared their expertise and suggestions during the formulation of this study.
