SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Comment: On April 13, 2005, we
published in the Federal Register (70
FR 19508) a 60-day notice of our intent
to request renewal of this information
collection authority from OMB. In that
notice, we solicited public comments
for 60 days ending June 13, 2005. One
comment was received from the public
notice. The comment came from B.
Sachau of Floram Park, NJ, via e-mail on
April 18, 2005. Ms. Sachau objected to
the Fellowships program, but had no
specific suggestions for altering the data
collection.
Response: NSF believes that because
the comment does not pertain to the
collection of information or the required
forms for which NSF is seeking OMB
approval, NSF is proceeding with the
clearance request.
Title of Collection: Fellowship
Applications and Award Forms.
OMB Approval Number: 3145–0023.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to extend without revision an
information collection for three years.
Abstract: Section 10 of the National
Science Foundation Act of 1950 (42
VerDate jul<14>2003
16:15 Jul 11, 2005
Jkt 205001
U.S.C. 1861 et seq.), as amended, states
that ‘‘The Foundation is authorized to
award, within the limits of funds made
available * * * scholarships and
graduate fellowships for scientific study
or scientific work in the mathematical
physical, medical, biological,
engineering, social, and other sciences
at appropriate nonprofit American or
nonprofit foreign institutions selected
by the recipient of such aid, for stated
periods of time.’’
The Foundation Fellowship Programs
are designed to meet the following
objectives:
• To assure that some of the Nation’s
most talented students in the sciences
obtain the education necessary to
become creative and productive
scientific researchers.
• To train or upgrade advanced
scientific personnel to enhance their
abilities as teachers and researchers.
• To promote graduate education in
the sciences, mathematics, and
engineering at institutions that have
traditionally served ethnic minorities.
• To encourage pursuit of advanced
science degrees by students who are
members of ethnic groups traditionally
under-represented in the Nation’s
advanced science personnel pool.
The list of fellowship award programs
sponsored by the Foundation may be
found via FastLane through the NSF
Web site: https://www.fastlane.nsf.gov.
Estimate of Burden: These are annual
award programs with application
deadlines varying according to the
fellowship program. Public burden may
also vary according to program, however
it is estimated that each submission is
averaged to be 12 hours per respondent.
Respondents: Individuals.
Estimated Number of Responses:
5,000.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 60,000 hours.
Frequency of Responses: Annually.

Tennessee Valley Authority; Browns
Ferry Nuclear Plant, Units 2 and 3;
Notice of Consideration of Issuance of
Amendments to Facility Operating
License and Opportunity for a Hearing
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC or the Commission)
is considering issuance of amendments
to Facility Operating Licenses No. DPR–
52 and DPR–68, issued to Tennessee
Valley Authority (the licensees), for
operation of the Browns Ferry Nuclear
Plant (BFN) Units 2 and 3 located in
Limestone County, Alabama.
The proposed amendments would
change the BFN, Units 2 and 3 operating
licenses to increase the maximum
authorized power level from 3458
megawatts thermal (MWt) to 3952 MWt.
This change represents an increase of
approximately 15 percent above the
current maximum authorized power
level. The proposed amendments would
also change the BFN, Units 2 and 3
licensing bases and any associated
technical specifications for containment
overpressure.
Before issuance of the proposed
license amendments, the Commission
will have made findings required by the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended
(the Act), and the Commission’s
regulations.
Within 60 days after the date of
publication of this notice, the licensee
may file a request for a hearing with
respect to issuance of the amendments
to the subject facility operating license
and any person whose interest may be
affected by this proceeding and who
wishes to participate as a party in the
proceeding must file a written request
for a hearing and a petition for leave to
intervene. Requests for a hearing and a
petition for leave to intervene shall be
filed in accordance with the
Commission’s ‘‘Rules of Practice for
Domestic Licensing Proceedings’’ in 10
CFR part 2. Interested persons should

be affected by the results of the
proceeding. The petition should
specifically explain the reasons why
intervention should be permitted with
particular reference to the following
general requirements: (1) The name,
address and telephone number of the
requestor or petitioner; (2) the nature of
the requestor’s/petitioner’s right under
the Act to be made a party to the
proceeding; (3) the nature and extent of
the requestor’s/petitioner’s property,
financial, or other interest in the
proceeding; and (4) the possible effect of
any decision or order which may be
entered in the proceeding on the
requestor’s/petitioner’s interest. The
petition must also identify the specific
contentions which the petitioner/
requestor seeks to have litigated in the
proceeding.
Each contention must consist of a
specific statement of the issue of law or
fact to be raised or controverted. In
addition, the petitioner/requestor shall
provide a brief explanation of the bases
for the contention and a concise
statement of the alleged facts or expert
opinion which support the contention
and on which the petitioner intends to
rely in proving the contention at the
hearing. The petitioner must also
provide references to those specific
sources and documents of which the
petitioner is aware and on which the
petitioner intends to rely to establish
those facts or expert opinion. The
petition must include sufficient
information to show that a genuine
dispute exists with the applicant on a
