The NRC plans to hold a public meeting to solicit comments from members of the public on the proposed license application. The meeting is open to the public and all interested parties may attend. This meeting is the first of several public meetings that the NRC will hold in Hawaii to enhance public awareness of the NRC’s independent regulatory role in protecting public health and safety and the environment, to allow public involvement in NRC VerDate jul<14>2003 decision-making matters associated with this license application, and to promote two-way communication on matters related to the NRC’s licensing and inspection processes.

OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT Submission for OMB Emergency Clearance and 60 Day Notice for Comment for a Reinstatement, With Change, of a Previously Approved Collection: OPM Form 1300, Presidential Management Fellows Program Online Application and Resume Builder Office of Personnel Management (OPM). ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) submitted a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for emergency clearance and review for a reinstatement, with change, of a previously approved collection for the OPM Form 1300, Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Program Online Application and Resume Builder. Approval of the PMF Online Application and Resume Builder is necessary to facilitate the timely PO 00000 Frm 00124 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 registration, nomination, selection, and placement of PMF finalists in Federal agencies. This also serves as the 60 Day Notice for review for full clearance. As a result of Executive Order 13318, the OPM issued a final rule on May 19, 2005 (FR, Vol. 70, No. 96, Page 28775) implementing new program regulations effective June 20, 2005. Consistent with these new regulations, the following significant changes have been made to the application and nomination process: (1) The programmatic guidance in the Program and Application Overview, found under the PMF Web site’s ‘‘How to Apply’’ section, was rewritten to reflect myriad changes resulting from the new regulations; (2) the nomination process was modified to clarify that eligible graduate students are to be nominated by their school’s Dean, Chairperson, or Academic Program Director (i.e. a nominating official), and not by a designee or nomination coordinator; and (3) the dates and times were revised from last year to reflect the current academic year of 2005/2006. We estimate 3,500 to 4,000 applications will be received and processed in the 2005/2006 open season for PMF applications. During the 2004/ 2005 open season OPM received approximately 3,321 applications, leading to 3,073 nominations by colleges and universities. We estimate students will need 2 hours to complete the OPM Form 1300 and electronically submit it to their school’s nominating official. In addition, we estimate school nominating officials will need one-half hour to receive, review, and render a decision on the student’s application for nomination into the PMF Program. The annual estimated burden for nominees is 8,000 hours and 2,000 hours for school nominating officials, for a total of 10,000 hours. Comments are particularly invited on: whether this information is necessary for the proper performance of functions on the Office of Personnel Management, and whether it will have practical utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed information collection is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s estimate of the burden of the collection of the information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden related to the collection of information on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Title and purpose of information collection: Medicare; OMB 3220–0082. Under section 7(d) of the Railroad Retirement Act (RRA), the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) administers the Medicare program for persons covered by the railroad retirement system. The RRB uses Form AA–6, Employee Application for Medicare; Form AA–7, Spouse/Divorced Spouse Application VerDate jul<14>2003 16:47 Aug 18, 2005 Jkt 205001 For Medicare; and Form AA–8, Widow/ Widower Application for Medicare; to obtain the information needed to determine whether individuals who have not yet filed for benefits under the RRA are qualified for Medicare payments provided under Title XVIII of the Social Security Act. Further, in order for the RRB to determine if a qualified railroad retirement beneficiary who is claiming supplementary medical insurance coverage under Medicare is entitled to a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) and/ or premium surcharge relief because of coverage under an Employer Group Health Plan (EGHP), it needs to obtain information regarding the claimant’s EGHP coverage, if any. The RRB uses Form RL–311-F, Evidence of Coverage Under An Employer Group Health Plan, to obtain the basic information needed by the RRB to establish EGHP coverage for a qualified railroad retirement beneficiary. Completion of the forms is required to obtain a benefit. One response is requested of each respondent. The RRB proposes no changes to Forms AA–6, AA–7 and AA–8. The RRB proposes revising Form RL–311–F by adding a new item, Item 2, ‘‘Name of the Group Health Plan’’. In addition the RRB proposes minor, non-burden impacting, editorial and formatting changes. The RRB estimates that 180 Form AA–6’s, 50 Form AA–7’s, 10 Form AA–8’s, and 800 RL–311–F’s are completed annually. The completion time for Forms AA–6, AA–7 and AA–8 is estimated at 8 minutes. The completion time for Form RL–311–F is estimated at 10 minutes. Additional Information or Comments: To request more information or to obtain a copy of the information collection justification, forms, and/or supporting material, please call the RRB Clearance Officer at (312) 751–3363 or send an e-mail request to Charles.Mierzwa@RRB.GOV. Comments regarding the information collection should be addressed to Ronald J. Hodapp, Railroad Retirement Board, 844 North Rush Street, Chicago, Illinois 60611–2092 or send an e-mail to Ronald.Hodapp@RRB.GOV. Written comments should be received within 60 days of this notice.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 
L. 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) submitted a request to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for emergency clearance and review for a 
reinstatement, with change, of a previously approved collection for the 
OPM Form 1300, Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Program Online 
Application and Resume Builder. Approval of the PMF Online Application 
and Resume Builder is necessary to facilitate the timely registration, 
nomination, selection, and placement of PMF finalists in Federal 
agencies. This also serves as the 60 Day Notice for review for full 
clearance.
    As a result of Executive Order 13318, the OPM issued a final rule 
on May 19, 2005 (FR, Vol. 70, No. 96, Page 28775) implementing new 
program regulations effective June 20, 2005. Consistent with these new 
regulations, the following significant changes have been made to the 
application and nomination process: (1) The programmatic guidance in 
the Program and Application Overview, found under the PMF Web site's 
``How to Apply'' section, was rewritten to reflect myriad changes 
resulting from the new regulations; (2) the nomination process was 
modified to clarify that eligible graduate students are to be nominated 
by their school's Dean, Chairperson, or Academic Program Director (i.e. 
a nominating official), and not by a designee or nomination 
coordinator; and (3) the dates and times were revised from last year to 
reflect the current academic year of 2005/2006.
    We estimate 3,500 to 4,000 applications will be received and 
processed in the 2005/2006 open season for PMF applications. During the 
2004/2005 open season OPM received approximately 3,321 applications,

burden for nominees is 8,000 hours and 2,000 hours for school 
nominating officials, for a total of 10,000 hours.
