Proposed Extension of Information
Collection; Refuge Alternatives for
Underground Coal Mines
Mine Safety and Health
Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Request for public comments.
AGENCY:

The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
collections of information in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995. This program helps to ensure that
requested data can be provided in the
desired format, reporting burden (time
and financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the Mine
Safety and Health Administration
(MSHA) is soliciting comments on the
information collection for Refuge
Alternatives for Underground Coal
Mines.
DATES: All comments must be received
on or before August 31, 2018.
ADDRESSES: Comments concerning the
information collection requirements of
this notice may be sent by any of the
methods listed below.
• Federal E-Rulemaking Portal:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 103(h) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act), 30 U.S.C. 813(h), authorizes
MSHA to collect information necessary
to carry out its duty in protecting the
safety and health of miners. Further,
section 101(a) of the Mine Act, 30 U.S.C.
811, authorizes the Secretary of Labor
(Secretary) to develop, promulgate, and
revise as may be appropriate, improved
mandatory health or safety standards for
the protection of life and prevention of
injuries in coal or other mines.
Each underground coal mine has an
emergency response plan (ERP) and
refuge alternatives (RA) that protect
miners when escape from a mine during
a mine emergency is not possible by
providing secure spaces with isolated
atmospheres that create life-sustaining
environments.
Title 30 CFR 75.1506 requires mine
operators to provide refuge alternatives.
Section 75.1507 requires the
development and implementation of
emergency response plans. It requires
that the ERP provide detailed
information about the RAs used in the
mine. This information assists miners,
supervisors, emergency responders, and
MSHA in assuring that all essential
preparations are made and required
materials are readily available and in
working order. A mine operator may
notify the District Manager and update
the existing ERP if there is a need to
locate an RA in a different location than
the one identified in the ERP for that
mine (as required by section
75.1506(c)(2)).
Section 75.1508 requires the mine
operator to certify that persons assigned
to examine, maintain, and repair RAs
and components are trained for those
tasks. Training certifications assist
MSHA in determining that persons
received the required training. The
training certification for persons
assigned to examine RAs is integrated
into existing requirements for preshift
examinations of the mine under section
75.360 (OMB 1219–0088). The training
certification for persons assigned to
maintain and repair RAs is included in
this package under section 75.1508(a).
Section 75.1508(b) requires a record
of any maintenance and repair
performed on an RA. This record assists
MSHA in identifying design flaws or
other weaknesses in the refuge
alternative or its components that could
adversely impact the safety of miners.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50–298; NRC–2018–0133]

Nebraska Public Power District;
Cooper Nuclear Station
Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
ACTION: License amendment application;
notice of opportunity to comment,
request a hearing, and petition for leave
to intervene; order imposing
procedures.
AGENCY:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is considering
issuance of an amendment to Renewed
Facility Operating License No. DPR–46,
issued to Nebraska Public Power District
(NPPD), for operation of the Cooper
Nuclear Station (CNS). The proposed
amendment would modify the CNS
technical specifications by revising the
two recirculation loop and single
recirculation loop Safety Limit
Minimum Critical Power Ratio
(SLMCPR) values to reflect the results of
a cycle specific calculation. For this
amendment request, the NRC proposes
to determine that it involves no
significant hazards consideration.
Because this amendment request
contains sensitive unclassified nonsafeguards information (SUNSI), an
order imposes procedures to obtain
access to SUNSI for contention
preparation.
DATES: Comments must be filed by
August 1, 2018. Requests for hearing or
petitions for leave to intervene must be
filed by August 31, 2018. Any potential
party as defined in § 2.4 of title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
who believes access to SUNSI is
necessary to respond to this notice must
request document access by July 12,
2018.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
by any of the following methods:
