In the Matter of SHINE Technologies, LLC (SHINE Medical Isotope
Production Facility)
Docket No. 50-608
Construction Permit No. CPMIF-001
Order
I.
SHINE Technologies, LLC (SHINE, licensee, permit holder) is the
holder of Construction Permit (CP) No. CPMIF-001, which the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC, the Commission) issued on February
29, 2016 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)
Package Accession No. ML16041A473), as amended on November 30, 2022
(ML22292A319), for the construction of the SHINE Medical Isotope
Production Facility (SHINE facility) in Rock County, Wisconsin. CP No.
CPMIF-001 includes December 31, 2025, as the latest date for completion
of the construction of the SHINE facility and expires on the latest
date of completion. The SHINE facility is currently under construction.
By letter dated August 14, 2025 (M25226A150), SHINE submitted to
the NRC a license amendment request in accordance with section 50.90,
``Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early
site permit,'' of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR)
and 10 CFR 50.55(b). The license amendment request seeks to extend the
latest date for completion of the construction of the SHINE facility
from December 31, 2025, to December 31, 2029.
II.
Upon review of the license amendment request, the NRC staff
determined that SHINE had shown good cause for extending the latest
date for completion of the construction of the SHINE facility from
December 31, 2025, to December 31, 2029. The staff also determined that
the license amendment request involves no significant hazards
consideration. The staff prepared an environmental assessment and
finding of no significant impact for the requested extension of the
latest date for completion of construction and published it in the
Federal Register on November 28, 2025 (90 FR 54766). On the basis of
the environmental assessment, the staff concluded that the requested
extension will not have a significant effect on the quality of the
human environment. The findings set forth above are supported by an NRC
staff safety evaluation dated December 4, 2025, which is available at
ML25318A056.
III.
Within 60 days after the date of publication of this notice, any
persons (petitioner) whose interest may be affected by this action may
file a request for a hearing and petition for leave to intervene
(petition) with respect to the action. The scope of this order
extending the latest date for completion of construction and any
proceeding hereunder is limited to direct challenges to the CP holder's
asserted reasons that show good cause for the extension. Petitions
shall be filed in accordance with the Commission's ``Agency Rules of
Practice and Procedure'' in 10 CFR part 2. Interested persons should
consult a current copy of 10 CFR 2.309. If a petition is filed, the
Commission or a presiding officer will rule on the petition and, if
appropriate, a notice of a hearing will be issued.
Petitions must be filed no later than 60 days from the date of
publication of this notice in accordance with the filing instructions
in section IV of this document. Petitions and motions for leave to file
new or amended contentions that are filed after the deadline will not
be entertained absent a determination by the presiding officer that the
filing demonstrates good cause by satisfying the three factors in 10
CFR 2.309(c)(1)(i) through (iii).
A State, local governmental body, Federally recognized Indian
Tribe, or designated agency thereof, may submit a petition to the
Commission to participate as a party under 10 CFR 2.309(h) no later
than 60 days from the date of publication of this notice.
Alternatively, a State, local governmental body, Federally recognized
Indian Tribe, or agency thereof may participate as a non-party under 10
CFR 2.315(c).
For information about filing a petition and about participation by
a person not a party under 10 CFR 2.315, see ADAMS Accession No.
ML20340A053 (https://adamswebsearch2.nrc.gov/webSearch2/main.jsp?AccessionNumber=ML20340A053) and on the NRC's public website
at https://www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/regulatory/adjudicatory/hearing.html#participate.
[[Page 57788]]
IV.
All documents filed in NRC adjudicatory proceedings, including
documents filed by an interested State, local governmental body,
Federally recognized Indian Tribe, or designated agency thereof that
requests to participate under 10 CFR 2.315(c), must be filed in
accordance with 10 CFR 2.302. The E-Filing process requires
participants to submit and serve all adjudicatory documents over the
internet, or in some cases, to mail copies on electronic storage media,
unless an exemption permitting an alternative filing method, as further
discussed, is granted. Detailed guidance on electronic submissions is
located in the ``Guidance for Electronic Submissions to the NRC''
(ADAMS Accession No. ML13031A056), and on the NRC's public website
(https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals.html).
To comply with the procedural requirements of E-Filing, at least 10
days prior to the filing deadline, the participant should contact the
Office of the Secretary by email at [email protected], or by
telephone at 301-415-1677, to: (1) request a digital identification
(ID) certificate which allows the participant (or its counsel or
representative) to digitally sign submissions and access the E-Filing
system for any proceeding in which it is participating; and (2) advise
the Secretary that the participant will be submitting a petition or
other adjudicatory document (even in instances in which the
participant, or its counsel or representative, already holds an NRC-
issued digital ID certificate). Based upon this information, the
Secretary will establish an electronic docket for the proceeding if the
Secretary has not already established an electronic docket.
Information about applying for a digital ID certificate is
available on the NRC's public website at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/getting-started.html. After a digital ID certificate is
obtained and a docket is created, the participant must submit
adjudicatory documents in the Portable Document Format. Guidance on
submissions is available on the NRC's public website at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/electronic-sub-ref-mat.html. A filing is
considered complete at the time the document is submitted through the
NRC's E-Filing system. To be timely, an electronic filing must be
submitted to the E-Filing system no later than 11:59 p.m. eastern time
(ET) on the due date. Upon receipt of a transmission, the E-Filing
system time-stamps the document and sends the submitter an email
confirming receipt of the document. The E-Filing system also
distributes an email that provides access to the document to the NRC's
Office of the General Counsel and any others who have advised the
Office of the Secretary that they wish to participate in the
proceeding, so that the filer need not serve the document on those
participants separately. Therefore, applicants and other participants
(or their counsel or representative) must apply for and receive a
digital ID certificate before adjudicatory documents are filed in order
to obtain access to the documents via the E-Filing system.
A person filing electronically using the NRC's adjudicatory E-
Filing system may seek assistance by contacting the NRC's Electronic
Filing Help Desk through the ``Contact Us'' link located on the NRC's
public website at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals.html, by
email to [email protected], or by a toll-free call at 1-866-672-
7640. The NRC Electronic Filing Help Desk is available between 9 a.m.
and 6 p.m., ET, Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.
Participants who believe that they have good cause for not
submitting documents electronically must file an exemption request, in
accordance with 10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper filing
stating why there is good cause for not filing electronically and
requesting authorization to continue to submit documents in paper
format. Such filings must be submitted in accordance with 10 CFR
2.302(b)-(d). Participants filing adjudicatory documents in this manner
are responsible for serving their documents on all other participants.
Participants granted an exemption under 10 CFR 2.302(g)(2) must still
meet the electronic formatting requirement in 10 CFR 2.302(g)(1),
unless the participant also seeks and is granted an exemption from 10
CFR 2.302(g)(1).
Documents submitted in adjudicatory proceedings will appear in the
NRC's electronic hearing docket, which is publicly available at https://adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless otherwise excluded pursuant to an order of
the presiding officer. If you do not have an NRC-issued digital ID
certificate as previously described, click ``cancel'' when the link
requests certificates and you will be automatically directed to the
NRC's electronic hearing docket where you will be able to access any
publicly available documents in a particular hearing docket.
Participants are requested not to include personal privacy information
such as social security numbers, home addresses, or personal phone
numbers in their filings unless an NRC regulation or other law requires
submission of such information. With respect to copyrighted works,
except for limited excerpts that serve the purpose of the adjudicatory
filings and would constitute a Fair Use application, participants
should not include copyrighted materials in their submission.
The attorney for the permit holder is Christine Wu, Senior Counsel
and Corporate Secretary, SHINE Technologies, LLC, 3400 Innovation
Court, Janesville, WI 53546.
V.
Accordingly, pursuant to Section 161 of the Atomic Energy Act of
1954, as amended; 42 U.S.C. 2201; and 10 CFR 50.90 and 10 CFR 50.55(b),
it is hereby ordered that CP No. CPMIF-001 is amended to extend the
latest date for completion of the construction of the SHINE facility
from December 31, 2025, to December 31, 2029.
This order is effective upon issuance.
Dated: December 4, 2025.
