SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background In accordance with Sec. 51.118 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), the NRC is making available the final EIS for the Construction Permit Application submitted for the SHINE facility. The NRC published the draft EIS in the NRC in the Federal Register on May 14, 2015 (80 FR 27710), and the Environmental Protection Agency noticed the availablity of the draft EIS on May 22, 2015 (80 FR 29701).

The final EIS is available as indicated in the ADDRESSES section of this document. II. Discussion As discussed in Chapter 6 of the final EIS, after weighing the environmental, economic, technical, and other benefits against environmental and other costs, and considering reasonable alternatives, the NRC staff recommends the issuance of the Construction Permit to SHINE, unless safety issues mandate otherwise. This recommendation is based on: (1) SHINE's Environmental Report; (2) the NRC staff's consultation with Federal, State, and local agencies; (3) the NRC staff's independent environmental review; and (4) the NRC staff's consideration of public comments.
