SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    Pursuant to Section 2.106 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations (10 CFR), the NRC is providing notice of the issuance of 
License Renewal to Material License No. SNM-362, to NIST, which uses 
licensed materials for research, development, calibration, and testing 
activities. Under SNM-362, NIST develops, maintains, and disseminates 
national standards for ionizing radiation and radioactivity to support 
health care, industry, and homeland security at its Gaithersburg, 
Maryland location. The licensee's request for renewal of its license 
was previously made on June 29, 2007. In accordance with 10 CFR Part 
51, an environmental assessment of this action was completed and a 
finding of no significant impact was published in the Federal Register 
on April 13, 2012 (77 FR 22362).
    This license renewal complies with the standards and requirements 
of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the NRC's rules and 
regulations as set forth in 10 CFR Chapter 1. Accordingly, this license 
renewal was issued on September 10, 2013, and is effective immediately.
