3. Request an Office of the Inspector
General (OIG) inspection on why different
NRC regions have different analysis criteria
for similar PCP events.
4. Request a $10 million fine over these
events.
5. Request for PNP to return to yellow or
red status and for the NRC to intensify its
monitoring of PNP.

The NRC sent a copy of the proposed
director’s decision to the petitioner and
the licensee for comment on January 23,
2015 (ADAMS Accession Nos.
ML14338A435 and ML14338A431). The
petitioner and the licensee were asked
to provide comments within 15 days on
any part of the proposed director’s
decision that was considered to be
erroneous or any issues in the petition
that were not addressed. Comments
were received from the petitioner and
are addressed in an attachment to the
final director’s decision.
The Deputy Director of the Office of
Nuclear Reactor Regulation denied the
petitioner’s requests for the following
actions:

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

1. Request for PNP to open every PCP for
inspection and clear up all flaws.
2. Request for PNP to replace the PCPs
with others designed for their intended duty.
3. Request a $10 million fine over these
events.
4. Request for PNP to return to yellow or
red status and for the NRC to intensify its
monitoring of PNP.

The reasons for this decision are
explained in the final director’s decision
DD–15–03, under 10 CFR 2.206 of the
Commission’s regulations. The
petitioner’s request for an OIG
inspection on why different NRC
regions have different analysis criteria
for similar PCP events has been
forwarded to the OIG. The NRC found
no basis for taking the requested
enforcement-related actions against
PNP; thus, the NRC denies the petition.
NRC staff did not find that the
continued operation of PNP would
adversely affect public health and
safety. The NRC determined that the
licensee’s actions to date are adequate
and there is reasonable assurance that
the operation of the PNP will not
endanger the health and safety of the
public. For the performance deficiencies
and inspection findings that the NRC
has identified at PNP, the agency will
continue to monitor the progress of the
licensee’s completion of corrective
actions through planned inspections
consistent with the NRC’s ongoing
reactor oversight process.
Consistent with 10 CFR 2.206(c), the
NRC staff will file a copy of this final
director’s decision with the Secretary of
the Commission for the Commission to
review. As provided for in 10 CFR

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001

2.206(c)(1), the final director’s decision
will constitute the Commission’s final
action within 25 days of the date of the
decision unless the Commission, on its
own motion, chooses to review the
decision within that time.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 6th day
of April 2015.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Regulation.

hereby informs potential respondents
that an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and that a person is not

required to respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The NRC published a Federal
Register notice with a 60-day comment
period on this information collection on
December 2, 2014, (79 FR 71450).
1. The title of the information
collection: 10 CFR part 20, ‘‘Standards
for Protection Against Radiation.’’
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0014.
3. Type of submission: Revision.
4. The form number if applicable: Not
applicable.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: Annually for most reports
and at license termination for reports
dealing with decommissioning.
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: NRC licensees and Agreement
State licensees, including those
requesting license terminations. Types
of licensees include civilian
commercial, industrial, academic, and
medical users of nuclear materials.
Licenses are issued for, among other
things, the possession, use, processing,
handling, and importing and exporting
of nuclear materials, and for the
operation of nuclear reactors.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 43,530 (11,739 for reporting
[1,677 NRC licensees and 10,062
Agreement State licensees], 21,018 for

States. These standards require the
establishment of radiation protection
programs, maintenance of radiation
protection programs, maintenance of
radiation records recording of radiation
received by workers, reporting of
incidents which could cause exposure
to radiation, submittal of an annual
report to NRC and to Agreement States
of the results of individual monitoring,
and submittal of license termination
information. These mandatory
requirements are needed to protect
occupationally exposed individuals
from undue risks of excessive exposure

SUMMARY:

1–800–397–4209, 301–415–4737, or by
email to [email protected]. The
ADAMS accession number for each
document referenced in this document
(if that document is available in
ADAMS) is provided the first time that
a document is referenced.
• NRC’s PDR: You may examine and
purchase copies of public documents at
the NRC’s PDR, Room O1–F21, One
White Flint North, 11555 Rockville
Pike, Rockville, Maryland 20852.

The NRC
has granted the request of Omaha Public
Power District (the licensee) to
withdraw its application dated April 25,
2014, as supplemented by letter dated
February 13, 2015 (ADAMS Accession
Nos. ML14118A435 and ML15050A257,
respectively), for a proposed
amendment to Renewed Facility
Operating License No. DPR–40 for the
Fort Calhoun Station, Unit No. 1,
located in Washington County,
Nebraska.
The proposed amendment would
have revised Section 5.11, ‘‘Structures
Other Than Containment,’’ and
Appendix F, ‘‘Classification of
Structures and Equipment and Seismic
Criteria,’’ of the Updated Safety
Analysis Report to clarify the licensing
and design basis to permit the use of
seismic floor response spectra in
analysis and design of seismic Class I
structures and structural elements
attached to structures.
The Commission had previously
issued a Notice of Consideration of
Issuance of Amendment published in
the Federal Register on July 8, 2014 (79
FR 38593). However, by letter dated
April 1, 2015 (ADAMS Accession No.
ML15090A743), the licensee withdrew
the proposed change.
