30-day Federal Register Notice

mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 247 / Friday, December 23, 2016 / Notices
Guide (PAPPG). Instead, it draws upon
and supplements it for the purpose of
providing detailed guidance on NSF
policy and procedures related to the
planning and management of Large
Facilities. All facilities projects require
merit and technical review, as well as
approval of certain deliverables. The
level of review and approval varies
substantially from standard grants, as
does the level of oversight needed to
ensure appropriate and proper
accountability for federal funds. The
requirements, recommended procedures
and best practices presented in the
Manual apply to any facility significant
enough to require close and substantial
interaction with the Foundation and the
National Science Board.
This Manual will be updated
periodically to reflect changes in
requirements, policies and/or
procedures. Award Recipients are
expected to monitor and adopt the
requirements and best practices
included in the Manual which are
aimed at improving management and
oversight of large facilities projects and
at enabling the most efficient and costeffective delivery of tools to the research
and education communities.
The submission of proposals and
subsequent project documentation to
the Foundation related to the
development, construction and
operations of Large Facilities is part of
the collection of information. This
information is used to help NSF fulfill
this responsibility in supporting meritbased research and education projects in
all the scientific and engineering
disciplines. The Foundation also has a
continuing commitment to provide
oversight on facilities development and
construction which must be balanced
against monitoring its information
collection so as to identify and address
any excessive reporting burdens.
NSF has approximately twenty-two
(22) Large Facilities in various stages of
development, construction, operations
and termination. One to two (1 to 2)
new awards are made approximately
every five (5) years based on science
community infrastructure needs and
availability of funding. Of the twentytwo large facilities, there are
approximately eight (8) facilities
annually that are either in development
or construction. These stages require the
highest level of reporting and
management documentation per the
Large Facilities Manual.
Burden on the Public: The Foundation
estimates that an average of three (3)
Full Time Equivalents (FTEs) are
necessary for each facility project in
development or construction (Total
Project Cost of $200–$500M) to respond

to NSF routine reporting and project
management documentation
requirements on an annual basis; or
6240 hours per year. The Foundation
estimates an average of one (1) FTE for
a facility in operations; or 2080 hours
per year. Assuming an average of eight
(8) facilities in construction and the
balance in operations, this equates to
roughly 80,000 public burden hours
annually.
NSF may not conduct or sponsor a
collection of information unless the
collection of information displays a
currently valid OMB control number
and the agency informs potential
persons who are to respond to the
collection of information that such
persons are not required to respond to
the collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
Authority: Pub. L. 104–13 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.).
Dated: December 19, 2016.

II. Background
Under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently
submitted a request for renewal of an
existing collection of information to
OMB for review entitled, ‘‘NRC Form
314, Certification of Disposition of
Material.’’ The NRC 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
July 19, 2016 (81 FR 46972).
1. The title of the information
collection: NRC Form 314 Certification
of Disposition of Material.
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0028.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number if applicable:
NRC Form 314.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: NRC Form 314 is
submitted by materials licensee who
wishes to terminate its license. The form
provides information needed by the
NRC to determine whether the licensee
has radioactive materials on hand which
must be transferred or otherwise
disposed of prior to expiration or
termination of the license.
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: Respondents are firms,
institutions, and individual holding
NRC licenses to possess and use
radioactive materials who do not wish
who do not wish to renew those
licenses.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 136 responses.
8. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 136 respondents.

9. An estimate of the total number of
hours needed annually to comply with
the information collection requirement
or request: Each form requires, on
average, approximately 0.5 hours to
prepare. 136 × 0.5 hour = a total annual
burden for all respondents of 68 hours.
10. Abstract: The NRC Form 314
furnishes information to the NRC
regarding transfer or other disposition of
radioactive material by licensees who
wish to terminate their licenses. The
information is used by the NRC as part
of the basis for its determination that the
facility has been cleared of radioactive
material before the facility is released
for unrestricted use.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 19th day
of December 2016.

Design of Structures, Components,

Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
ACTION: Standard review plan-final
section revision; issuance.
AGENCY:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing a final
revision to several sections in Chapter 3,
‘‘Design of Structures, Components,
Equipment, and Systems Reactor
Coolant System and Connected
Systems,’’ and Chapter 5, ‘‘Reactor
Coolant System and Connected
Systems,’’ of NUREG–0800, ‘‘Standard
Review Plan for the Review of Safety
Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power
Plants: LWR Edition.’’ The revisions to
these standard review plan (SRP)
sections reflect no changes in staff
position; rather they clarify the original
intent of these SRP sections using plain
language throughout in accordance with
the NRC’s Plain Writing Action Plan.
Additionally, these revisions reflect
operating experience, lessons learned,
and the inclusion of updated guidance
since the last revision, and address the
applicability of regulatory treatment of
non-safety systems where appropriate.
The staff also deleted text in one of the
Chapter 5 SRPs, as the text contained
guidance that was included in other
