| 2024-24450 | Planned Change Request for Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Replacement Panels 11 and 12; Reopening of Public Comment Period | Notice | On July 16, 2024, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) announced for public comment the availability of a Planned Change Request (PCR) recently submitted by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to modify the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP). The proposed change will involve adding two additional waste panels west of the current repository to replace lost disposal capacity resulting from the 2014 radiological incident and resulting ground control issues. A 60-day comment period was provided for the PCR that expired on September 16, 2024. A request for an extension to the comment period was received from several stakeholders, most recently at the Agency's informal public meetings held in New Mexico in late August. EPA is reopening the comment period to seek public input on both DOE's application and on what EPA should consider in its evaluation. | 2024-10-22 | 2024 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/10/22/2024-24450/planned-change-request-for-waste-isolation-pilot-plant-replacement-panels-11-and-12-reopening-of | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-10-22/pdf/2024-24450.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | On July 16, 2024, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) announced for public comment the availability of a Planned Change Request (PCR) recently submitted by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to modify the Waste Isolation Pilot... |
