The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering the renewal of source and byproduct materials license SUA-1600 for Powertech USA, Inc.'s (Powertech or licensee) Dewey-Burdock in situ uranium recovery (ISR) project in Custer and Fall River counties, South Dakota, for an additional 20 years. Powertech plans to recover uranium from the ore body and produce yellowcake using the ISR process. Yellowcake, the uranium oxide product of the ISR process, is used in the production of fuel for commercially operated nuclear power reactors. The NRC staff is issuing an environmental assessment (EA), finding of no significant impact (FONSI), and Section 106 Programmatic Agreement (PA) associated with the proposed licensing action.
