Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing a finding of no significant impact (FONSI) and accompanying environmental assessment (EA) for an alternate waste disposal method request from ProTechnics, a division of Core Laboratories LP (ProTechnics), for the disposal of well logging sand-outs or well logging returns containing residual amounts of NRC-licensed materials into Class I disposal wells in North Slope, Alaska. Based on the analysis in the EA, the NRC staff has concluded that there would be no significant impacts to the environment from ProTechnics' proposed exemption request and therefore, a FONSI is appropriate.
The EA and FONSI referenced in this document are available on June 24, 2025.
