Discussion 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 renewal of License SNM-95 to PSU, which authorizes PSU to possess and use SNM for education, research, and training programs at its campus in University Park, Pennsylvania. This licensee's original request for renewal of its license was made on September 23, 2013 (ADAMS Accession No. ML13273A207). Because the licensed material will be used for research, development, and for educational purposes, renewal of License SNM-95 is an action that is categorically excluded from a requirement to prepare an environmental assessment or environmental impact statement, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(c)(14)(v). A notice of receipt of the license renewal application with an opportunity to request a hearing and petition for leave to intervene was published in the **Federal Register** on February 2, 2015 (80 FR 5580). The NRC did not receive a request for a hearing or for a petition for leave to intervene. 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, the license renewal was issued on April 24, 2018, and was effective immediately. The NRC prepared a safety evaluation report for the renewal of License SNM-95 and concluded that the licensee can continue to operate the facility without endangering the health and safety of the public.
