    Reading Time:about 8 minutes

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend a special nuclear materials license held by the Cimarron Environmental Response Trust for activities at the Cimarron site in Oklahoma. The amendment would allow for a new plan to clean up contaminated groundwater, including a system to treat and remove both uranium and technetium-99 from the ground. This cleanup aims to meet environmental protection standards, and according to an environmental assessment, it will not significantly impact the environment. The NRC is not preparing a detailed environmental impact statement because it found no significant impacts from this proposed action.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to change a plan to clean up a place where there used to be a factory, so the water in the ground becomes clean and safe. They checked and promise that this will not harm the environment.
