SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  The NRC has issued Amendment No. 1 to 
Source Materials License No. SUC-1593 to the Army for possession of DU 
from Davy Crockett M101 spotting rounds. This license amendment 
authorizes possession only of existing DU from Davy Crockett M101 
spotting rounds at the following Army installations: Donnelly Training 
Area, Fort Wainwright, AK; Fort Benning, GA; Fort Bragg, NC; Fort 
Campbell, KY; Fort Carson, CO; Fort Gordon, GA; Fort Hood, TX; Fort 
Hunter Liggett, CA; Fort Jackson, SC; Fort Knox, KY; Fort Polk, LA; 
Fort Riley, KS; Fort Sill, OK; Joint Base Lewis-McChord/Yakima Training 
Center, WA; Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, NJ; and Schofield 
Barracks/Pohakuloa Training Area, HI.
    This license amendment allows the Army to conduct activities 
necessary for the possession and management of DU from Davy Crockett 
M101 spotting rounds and fragments as a result of previous use of DU at 
the specified installations. The license amendment does not authorize 
the Army to place additional DU on the specified installations. This 
license amendment approves the Army's programmatic Radiation Safety 
Plan, programmatic Physical Security Plan, and programmatic 
Environmental Radiation Monitoring Plan (ERMP), which apply to all the 
sites (ranges) with DU from Davy Crockett M101 spotting rounds at the 
specified installations.
    In addition, the Army is required to conduct its operations at 
these installations in accordance with the conditions listed in 
Amendment No. 1 of Source Materials License No. SUC-1593. This license 
amendment prohibits the Army from performing decommissioning or ground 
disturbing activities to collect or remove DU fragments or contaminated 
soil that is identified during routine range activities without prior 
authorization from the NRC. Also, this license amendment requires that 
the Army develop a site-specific ERMP for each specified installation, 
using the criteria contained in the approved programmatic ERMP, and 
submit them to the NRC within 6 months of the effective date of this 
license amendment. The Army is required to fully implement the site-
specific ERMPs within 6 months of their approval.
    Documents related to this license amendment application carry NRC 
docket ID NRC-2015-0209. The documents for this license amendment 
include the license amendment application (ADAMS Accession Nos. 
ML15161A454; ML15294A276; ML16004A369; and ML16048A358), the Safety 
Evaluation Report (SER) (ADAMS Accession No. ML16039A230), and the 
license (ADAMS Accession No. ML16039A234). Note that a complete listing 
of documents associated with the NRC staff's review of the Army's 
license amendment application is included in the SER.
    The Army's request for this license amendment was previously 
noticed in the Federal Register on September 4, 2015 (80 FR 53586), 
with a notice of an opportunity to request a hearing and to petition 
for leave to intervene. No requests for a hearing or petition for leave 
to intervene were filed on this proceeding.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 21st day of March, 2016.
