Energy Department > FERC Notice of Application for Non-Project Use of Project Lands and Waters and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and Protests The Applicant seeks approval to use project lands and waters at Lake Marion for the Lake Marion Regional Water System Water Supply Project (Water Project). The applicant proposes to construct an intake structure and pump station in Orangeburg County, South Carolina. Raw water would be withdrawn from Lake Marion and delivered to a proposed water treatment plant, to be located on non-project lands approximately 1,000 feet from the intake. The treatment plant will have an initial capacity of 8 million gallons/ day (MGD) and a maximum of up to 12 MGD. The licensee states that lake inflow is considered adequate to withstand the demand of the water treatment facility. The proposed structures (both on project and non- project lands) will remain the applicant's, therefore, no conveyance of project property rights is necessary. The applicant intends to sell the potable water to the Lake Marion Water Agency, which includes the City of Santee, the Town of Elloree, the City of Manning, the Town of St. George, and the Town of Holly Hill. The Water Project is divided into 5 smaller, independent projects. The initial project, referred to as the Santee Reach, includes the water treatment facility, elevated tank, and waterline to provide water to Santee and Orangeburg County. Other projects (including the Elloree, Holly Hill, St. George and Manning Reaches) will be phased in, based upon customer needs and funding availability with the last project anticipated being completed by March 2006.

Special nuclear material licensing requirements; exemptions:

Title	Type	Published
Nuclear Regulatory Commission Issuance of Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact for Exemption From Certain NRC Licensing Requirements for Special Nuclear Material for Envirocare of Utah, Inc. For the proposed action, the environmental impacts are not expected to be significant. Effluent releases and potential doses to the public are regulated by the State of Utah and are not anticipated to change as a result of this revision. In a 2001 EA for Waste Control Specialists, LLC (WCS) (66 FR 56358), the staff found that there would be no significant radiological or nonradiological impacts resulting from the proposed limits of uranium and plutonium, and the same limits are being applied to Envirocare in this revision of its Order. In addition, these revisions to the Order are not expected to significantly change environmental impacts from current operations at Envirocare. WCS does not use magnesium oxide in its processing; therefore, in order to use the same limits for uranium and plutonium at its facility, Envirocare will not use magnesium oxide during treatment of the waste stream allowed by the revision. This will help ensure criticality safety during processing.	Notice	Oct 16, 2003
