  <description><![CDATA[ DOE has created a new Office of Health, Safety and Security to 
strengthen and improve formulation and implementation of health, safety 
and security policy. Incident to creation of the new office, DOE has 
transferred certain health, safety and security functions to the new 
office that previously were carried out by the Office of Environment, 
Safety and Health and the Office of Security and Safety Performance 
Assurance. Certain functions related to DOE's responsibilities under 
the National Environmental Policy Act have been transferred to the 
Office of the General Counsel. Other functions outside of the core 
mission of health, safety and security have been transferred to other 
DOE offices performing similar or related functions. This notice of 
final rulemaking makes technical amendments to DOE's regulations to 
substitute the officials to whom or offices to which functions have 
been transferred pursuant to the reorganization of offices and 
functions. DOE also is removing Office of Environment, Saf<script type="text/javascript">

Amended Record of Decision: Idaho High-Level Waste and Facilities  Disposition Final Environmental Impact Statement]]></title>
  <link>http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2006-11-28-E6-20109</link>
  <description><![CDATA[ The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is amending its Record of 
Decision (ROD) published December 19, 2005 (70 Federal Register [FR] 
75165), pursuant to the Idaho HighLevel Waste and Facilities 
Disposition Final Environmental Impact Statement (Final EIS) (DOE/EIS
0287, September 2002). The Final EIS analyzed two sets of alternatives 
for accomplishing DOE's proposed actions regarding the Idaho Nuclear 
Technology and Engineering Center (INTEC): (1) Waste processing 
alternatives and (2) facility disposition alternatives. As described in 
this Amended ROD, DOE has decided to conduct performancebased closure 
of the INTEC Tank Farm Facility (TFF). This decision to conduct 
performancebased closure of the TFF does not affect decisions made in 
the initial ROD concerning: performancebased closure of other existing 
facilities directly related to the HLW Program; planned clean closure 
of newly constructed waste processing facilities needed to implement 
the initial ROD; steam reforming treatment of sodiumbearin<script type="text/javascript">

  <description><![CDATA[ Section 3116 of the Ronald W. Reagan National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 (NDAA) provides that certain 
waste from reprocessing spent nuclear fuel is not considered highlevel 
radioactive waste (HLW) if the Secretary of Energy, in consultation 
with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), determines that the waste 
meets the statutory criteria set forth in Section 3116(a). The 
Department of Energy (DOE) announces the availability of the 
Secretary's Section 3116 Determination for the Idaho Nuclear Technology 
and Engineering Center (INTEC) Tank Farm Facility (TFF), which 
addresses the stabilized residuals in the TFF and TFF system on the 
Idaho National Laboratory (INL) near Arco, Idaho, and the document that 
sets forth the basis for the Section 3116 Determination (Basis 
Document). The Section 3116 Determination sets forth the Secretarial 
finding that the stabilized residuals in the TFF and TFF system: (1) Do 
not require permanent isolation in a deep geologic repository, (2) have
