Pursuant to the Privacy Act of
1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), the National
Science Foundation (NSF) is providing
public notice of revisions to the text of

Project Participant File. In addition,
NSF is amending its standard routine
uses for all NSF systems of records.
DATES: This action will be effective
without further notice on February 2,
2015 unless modified by a subsequent
notice to incorporate comments
received from the public.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The NSF maintains the ‘‘Fellowships
and Other Awards’’; ‘‘Principal
Investigator/Proposal File and
Associated Records’’; ‘‘Reviewer/
Proposal File and Associated Records’’;
‘‘Reviewer/Fellowship and Other
Awards File and Associated Records’’;
and ‘‘Project Participant File.’’ These
changes more adequately describe the
systems and update the routine uses. All
revised system notices are reprinted in
their entirety.
NSF is also amending its standard
routine uses for all NSF systems of
records. The changes made to the
standard routine uses now proposed
will bring the total number of standard
routine use to eleven. Most of the eleven
standard routine uses previously existed
as routine uses within each individual
NSF SORN.
NSF–12 contains records on
fellowship applicants; nominees for

fellowships by an institution on behalf
of the nominee; and nominees for other
specific individual awards. Fellowship
awards are usually administered by the
applicant or the nominee’s home
institution. An amendment to this
system notice was last published in the
Federal Register on August 20, 2007,
effective on September 30, 2007, 72 FR
46520–46521.
NSF–50 contains records on research
and other proposals jointly submitted by
individual applicants (principal
investigators) and their home academic
or other institutions. NSF–50 includes
submitted proposals, review materials,
and when an award is made, records
concerning the administration of the
award, and awardee project reports
submitted to NSF. An amendment to
this system notice was last published in
the Federal Register on August 20,
2007, effective on September 30, 2007,
72 FR 46520–46521.
NSF–51 is a subsystem of NSF–50 and
contains information about those who
review proposals for NSF including the
reviewer’s name, proposal title and its
identifying number, and other related
material. The system enables program
offices to reference specific reviewers
and maintain appropriate files for use in
evaluating applications for grants or
other support. An amendment to this
system notice was last published in the
Federal Register on August 20, 2007,
effective on September 30, 2007, 72 FR
46520–46521.
NSF–54 contains similar records
about reviewers of applications as the
system of records for ‘‘Fellowships and
Other Awards’’ (NSF–12). An
amendment to this system notice was
last published in the Federal Register
on August 20, 2007, effective on
September 30, 2007, 72 FR 46520–
46521.
NSF–64, Project Participant File,
contains information on certain
participants who work on NSF-funded
projects, other than principal
investigators or project directors
covered by NSF–50. An amendment to
this system notice was last published in
the Federal Register on August 20,
2007, effective on September 30, 2007,
72 FR 46520–46521.
The amendments to these systems
will be effective as proposed at the end
of the comment period (February 2,
2015), unless modified by a subsequent
notice to incorporate comments
received from the public.
II. Privacy Act
The Privacy Act of 1974, as amended
(5 U.S.C. 552a), embodies fair
information practice principles in a
statutory framework governing the

VerDate Sep<11>2014

22:27 Dec 19, 2014

Jkt 235001

means by which Federal Agencies
collect, maintain, use, and disseminate
individual’s personal information. A
‘‘system of records’’ is a group of any
records under the control of an agency
for which information is retrieved by
the name of an individual or by some
identifying number, symbol, or other
identifying particular assigned to the
individual. In the Privacy Act, an
individual is defined as a U.S. citizen or
lawful permanent resident. As a matter
of policy, NSF extends administrative
Privacy Act protections to all
individuals. Individuals may request
access to their own records that are
maintained in a system of records in the
possession or control of NSF by
complying with NSF Privacy Act
regulations, 45 CFR part 613.
The Privacy Act requires each agency
to publish in the Federal Register a
description denoting the type and
character of each system of records that
the agency maintains, the routine uses
that are contained in each system in
order to make agency record keeping
practices transparent, to notify
individuals regarding the uses of their
records, and to assist individuals to find
such records within the agency. Below
are descriptions of the following NSF
systems: NSF–12, Fellowships and
Other Awards; NSF–50: Principal
Investigator/Proposal File and
Associated Records; NSF–51, Reviewer/
Proposal File and Associated Records;
NSF–54, Reviewer/Fellowships and
Other Awards File and Associated
Records; and NSF–64, Project
Participant File.
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r),
NSF has provided a report of this
system of records to the Office of
Management and Budget; the Chairman,
Senate Committee on Governmental
Affairs; and the Chairman, House
Committee on Government Reform and
Oversight.
III. Public Participation
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment including your
personal identifying information may be
made publicly available at any time.

subsystem of the ‘‘Principal
Investigator/Proposal File and
Associated Records’’ system (NSF–50),
and contains the reviewer’s name, title
of proposal(s) reviewed and identifying
number, and other related material.
Information supplied by reviewers or
potential reviewers includes their
affiliation, contact information,
educational degrees and possibly other
background information about the
reviewer, and reviewer demographic
information, if voluntarily provided.

The system enables program offices to
reference specific reviewers and
maintain appropriate files for use in
evaluating applications for grants or
other support. NSF employees may
access the system to help select
reviewers as part of the merit review
process, and to carry out other
authorized duties.

effort; and whether financially

PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM:

Supplements other information
gathered via project reporting on
projects funded by NSF. The primary
purpose is to enable NSF to identify
outcomes of projects funded under NSF
awards for management, evaluation, and
for reporting. Information on
participants will normally be
aggregated, usually statistically, to
identify outcomes of NSF programs. On
occasion non-sensitive information
might be used to identify persons who
have achieved distinction in science,
engineering, education, or the like (for
example, by award of a prize) as
beneficiaries of NSF support.
The information in the system may
also be used secondarily for compatible
purposes including to:
(1) Identify scientists, engineers, or
educators who may be interested in
applying for support, in attending a
scientific or similar meeting, in
applying for a position, or in taking
advantage of some similar opportunity;
(2) Identify possible candidates to
serve as reviewers in the peer review
system or for inclusion on a panel or
advisory committee (information from
this system may be entered in the NSF’s
reviewer databases, NSF–51 and NSF–
54, for this purpose).

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing an
exemption in response to a request
submitted by ZionSolutions on June 25,
2014, for its general license to operate
an independent spent fuel storage
installation (ISFSI) at the Zion Nuclear
Power Station (ZNPS). The exemption
would permit ZionSolutions to load
NAC International, Inc. (NAC), Modular
Advanced Generation Nuclear Allpurpose Storage (MAGNASTOR®) casks
(Certificate of Compliance (CoC) No.
1031) in a manner different than
permitted by any amendment to the
MAGNASTOR® CoC. ZionSolutions is
currently loading MAGNASTOR®
storage casks and maintains that relief
from requirements provides flexibility
in operations, minimizes equipment
runtime and repair, and minimizes
personnel dose.
DATES: Notice of issuance of exemption
given on December 22, 2014.
