I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent (i.e., employer) burden,
conducts a preclearance consultation
program to provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and continuing information collection
requirements in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program
ensures that information is in the
desired format, reporting burden (time
and costs) is minimal, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection
by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the Act
or for developing information regarding
the causes and prevention of
occupational injuries, illnesses, and
accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act
also requires that OSHA obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The basic purpose of the information
collection requirements in the Standard
is to document that employers in
general industry are providing their
employees with protection from
hazardous asbestos exposure. Asbestos
exposure results in asbestosis, an
emphysema-like condition; lung cancer;
mesothelioma; and gastrointestinal
cancer.
Several provisions of the Standard
specify paperwork requirements,
including: Implementing an exposure
monitoring program that notifies
employees of their exposure monitoring
results; establishing a written
compliance program; and informing
laundry personnel of the requirement to
prevent release of airborne asbestos
above the time-weighted average and
excursion limit. Other provisions
associated with paperwork requirements
include: Maintaining records of
information obtained concerning the
presence, location, and quantity of
asbestos-containing materials (ACMs)
and/or presumed asbestos-containing
materials (PACMs) in a building/facility;
notifying housekeeping employees of
the presence and location of ACMs and
PACMs in areas they may contact
during their work; posting warning
signs demarcating regulated areas;
posting signs in mechanical rooms/areas
that employees may enter and that

PO 00000

Frm 00070

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

16831

contain ACMs and PACMs, informing
them of the identity and location of
these materials and work practices that
prevent disturbing the materials; and
affixing warning labels to asbestoscontaining products and to containers
holding such products. Additional
provisions that contain paperwork
requirements include: Developing
specific information and training
programs for employees; using
information, data, and analyses to
demonstrate that PACM does not
contain asbestos; providing medical
surveillance for employees potentially
exposed to ACMs and/or PACMs,
including administering an employee
medical questionnaire, providing
information to the examining physician,
and providing the physician’s written
opinion to the employee; maintaining
exposure monitoring records, objective
data used for exposure determinations,
and medical surveillance; making
specified records (e.g., exposure
monitoring and medical surveillance
records) available to designated parties;
and transferring exposure monitoring
and medical surveillance records to the
National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH) on cessation
of business, if so requested by NIOSH.
These paperwork requirements permit
employers, employees and their
designated representatives, OSHA, and
other specified parties to determine the
effectiveness of an employer’s asbestoscontrol program. Accordingly, the
requirements ensure that employees
exposed to asbestos receive all of the
protection afforded by the Standard.
II. Special Issues for Comment
OSHA has a particular interest in
comments on the following issues:
• Whether the proposed information
collection requirements are necessary
for the proper performance of the
Agency’s functions to protect
employees, including whether the
information is useful;
• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of
the burden (time and costs) of the
information collection requirements,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• The quality, utility, and clarity of
the information collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden on
employers who must comply; for
example, by using automated or other
technological information collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting OMB to extend its
approval of the information collection
requirements specified by the Standard
on Asbestos in General Industry. The

Tennessee Valley Authority Browns
Ferry Nuclear Plant, Units 1, 2, and 3
Docket Nos. 50–259, 50–260, and 50–
296 Exemption
1.0

Background

The Tennessee Valley Authority
(TVA, the licensee) is the holder of
Facility Operating Licenses DPR–33,
DPR–52, and DPR–68, which authorize
operation of the Browns Ferry Nuclear
Plant, Units 1, 2 and 3. The license
provides, among other things, that the
facility is subject to all rules,
regulations, and orders of the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC, the
Commission) now or hereafter in effect.
The facility consists of three boilingwater reactors located in Limestone
County in Alabama.
2.0

Request/Action

On November 19, 1980, the
Commission published a new Appendix
R to Title 10 to the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50 regarding
fire protection features of nuclear power
plants (45 FR 76602). Section 50.48(a)
requires that each operating nuclear
power plant have a fire protection plan
which satisfies General Design Criterion
(GDC) 3, ‘‘Fire protection,’’ in Appendix
A, ‘‘General Design Criteria for Nuclear
Power Plants,’’ to 10 CFR Part 50. The
approved fire protection plan is the plan

PO 00000

Frm 00071

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

required to satisfy 10 CFR 50.48(a).
Specific fire protection features deemed
necessary to ensure this capability are
delineated in Appendix R to 10 CFR
Part 50. Section III of Appendix R
contains 15 subsections, lettered A
through O, each of which specifies the
requirements for a particular aspect of
fire protection features at nuclear power
plants. The Browns Ferry units are
required to comply with the provisions
of Sections III.G and III.J and III.O.
Section III.G.2 of Appendix R to 10 CFR
Part 50 requires that where cables or
equipment of redundant trains of
systems necessary to achieve and
maintain hot shutdown conditions are
located within the same fire area outside
of primary containment, one of the
following means of ensuring that one of
the redundant trains is free of fire
damage shall be provided:
a. Separation of cables and equipment
and associated non-safety circuits of
redundant trains by a fire barrier having
a 3-hour rating. Structural steel forming
a part of or supporting such fire barriers
shall be protected to provide fire
resistance equivalent to that required of
the barrier;
b. Separation of cables and equipment
and associated non-safety circuits of
redundant trains by a horizontal
distance of more than 20 feet with no
intervening combustible or fire hazards.
In addition, fire detectors and an
automatic fire suppression system shall
be installed in the fire area; or
c. Enclosure of cable and equipment
and associated non-safety circuits of one
redundant train in a fire barrier having
a 1-hour rating. In addition, fire
detectors and an automatic fire
suppression system shall be installed in
the fire area;
By letter dated October 26, 2006, as
supplemented by a letter dated January
11, 2007, the licensee requested a
revision to an exemption from 10 CFR
50 Appendix R, III.G.2. For the items
specified in this exemption request, the
licensee has selected III.G.2.b as the
option for compliance with Appendix R,
Section II.G.2. The exemption involves
allowing intervening combustible
materials, for example, fire hazards
(480V reactor building (RB) vent boards
1B, 2B, and 3B; small panels in Units 1,
2, and 3, and 1-hour rated Thermo-Lag
330–1 electrical raceway fire barrier
(ERFB) material), in the specified 20 feet
of separation protected with fire
detection and automatic water-based
fire suppression between redundant
safe-shutdown trains.
The redundant trains are separated by
a horizontal distance of 20 feet with
intervening combustibles in certain fire
zones in the Units 1, 2, and 3 RBs.
