SAFEGUARDS:
NOTIFICATION PROCEDURE:
All physical access to the
Department’s site, and the site of the
Department’s contractor where this
system of records is maintained, is
controlled and monitored by security
personnel. The computer system
employed by the Department offers a
high degree of resistance to tampering
and circumvention. This computer
system limits data access to Department
and contract staff on a ‘‘need to know’’
basis, and controls individual users’’
ability to access and alter records within
the system.
The contractor, Mathematica Policy
Research, Inc. (MPR), has established a
set of procedures to ensure
confidentiality of data. The system
ensures that information identifying
individuals is in files physically
separated from other research data. MPR
will maintain security of the complete
set of all master data files and
documentation. Access to individually
identifiable data will be strictly
controlled. All data will be kept in
locked file cabinets during nonworking
hours, and work on hardcopy data will
take place in a single room, except for
data entry. Physical security of
electronic data will also be maintained.
Security features that protect project
data include: Password-protected
accounts that authorize users to use the
MPR system but to access only specific
network directories and network
software; user rights and directory and
file attributes that limit those who can
use particular directories and files and
determine how they can use them; email passwords that authorize the user
to access mail services; and additional
security features that the network
administrator establishes for projects as
needed. The contractor employees who
maintain (collect, maintain, use or
disseminate) data in this system must
comply with the requirements of the
confidentiality standards in section 183
of the ESRA (20 U.S.C. 9573).
If you wish to determine whether a
record exists regarding you in the
system of records, contact the systems
manager. Your request must meet the
requirements of regulations in 34 CFR
5b.5, including proof of identity.
RETENTION AND DISPOSAL:
Records are maintained and disposed
of in accordance with the Department’s
Records Disposition Schedules (ED/
RDS) in Part 3 (Research Projects and
Management Study Records) and Part 14
(Electronic Records).

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURE:
If you wish to gain access to your
record in the system of records, contact
the system manager. Your request must
meet the requirements of regulations in
34 CFR 5b.5, including proof of identity.
CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURE:
If you wish to contest the content of
a record regarding you in the system of
records, contact the system manager.
Your request must meet the
requirements of regulations in 34 CFR
5b.7, including proof of identity.
RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES:
The system includes information that
is taken from teachers directly, such as
the teachers’ social security numbers;
the teachers’ demographic
information—such as race/ethnicity,
age, and educational background. It also
includes information obtained from two
classroom observations of the teachers
from trained researchers; the results of
the teachers’ standardized test scores
(e.g., existing SAT or ACT scores),
which are obtained from the College
Board or ACT with the teachers’
consent; and the standardized test
scores of the teachers’ students, which
are obtained directly from the students
in the teachers’ classes.
EXEMPTIONS CLAIMED FOR THE SYSTEM:
None.

Remediation of the Moab Uranium Mill
Tailings Final Environmental Impact

Impact Statement
Department of Energy (DOE).
Notice of availability.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of
Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of
Environmental Management (EM)
announces the availability of the
Remediation of the Moab Uranium Mill
Tailings Final Environmental Impact
Statement, Grand and San Juan
Counties, Utah (DOE/EIS–0355)(FEIS).

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
The FEIS has been prepared in
accordance with the regulations of the
Council on Environmental Quality (Title
40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR]
Parts 1500–1508) for implementing the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) and DOE’s NEPA Implementing
Procedures (10 CFR Part 1021). The
FEIS analyzes the potential
environmental impacts associated with
remediating contaminated soils, tailings,
and ground water at the Moab Uranium
Mill Tailings Site (Moab site), Grand
County, Utah, and contaminated soils in
adjacent public and private properties
(vicinity properties) near the Moab site.
The FEIS analyzes one on-site and
three off-site alternative disposal
locations for remediation of surface
contamination; one alternative for
remediation of contaminated ground
water; and the No Action Alternative.
Remediation alternatives for the
disposal of surface contamination
include on-site disposal of the mill
tailings at their current location in
Moab, Utah; and three off-site disposal
alternatives in Utah: Klondike Flats,
Crescent Junction, and the White Mesa
Mill. For transportation of the mill
tailings to the off-site alternatives, three
modes have been considered: Truck,
rail, and slurry pipeline.
The FEIS identifies Crescent Junction
as DOE’s preferred alternative for
disposal of the Moab mill tailings and
other contaminated materials using
predominantly rail transportation.
Under the preferred alternative, DOE
would remove the contaminated mill
tailings from adjacent to the Colorado
River and relocate them at the Crescent
Junction site. The FEIS also identifies
active ground water remediation as
DOE’s preferred alternative for
contaminated ground water to eliminate
the potential ongoing impacts to aquatic
species in the Colorado River resulting
from contaminated ground water
discharges.
DATES: Copies of the FEIS were
distributed to Members of Congress,
American Indian Tribal governments,
state and local governments, other
Federal agencies, and organizations and
individuals who are known to have an
interest in the FEIS on July 25–26, 2005.
DOE plans to issue a Record of Decision
for the Moab FEIS no sooner than
September 6, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Send requests for copies of
the FEIS to: Mr. Donald Metzler, Moab
