SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA–95)(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures that information is in the desired format, reporting burden (time and costs) is minimal, collection instruments are clearly understood, and OSHA’s estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the Act)(29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.) authorizes information collection by employers as necessary or appropriate for enforcement of the Act or for developing information regarding the causes and prevention of occupational injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). OSHA will be requesting approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for certain information collection requirements contained in the Temporary Labor Camps Standard (29 CFR 1910.142). The main purpose of these provisions is to eliminate the incidence of communicable disease among temporary labor camp residents. The Standard requires camp superintendents to report immediately to the local health officer the name and address of any individual in the camp known to have, or suspected of having, a communicable disease. Whenever PO 00000 Frm 00028 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 76469 there is a case of suspected food poisoning or an unusual prevalence of any illness in which fever, diarrhea, sore throat, vomiting or jaundice is a prominent symptom, the Standard requires the camp superintendent to report that immediately to the health authority. In addition, the Standard requires that where the toilet rooms are shared, separate toilet rooms must be provided for each sex. These rooms must be marked ‘‘for men’’ and ‘‘for women’’ by signs printed in English and in the native language of the persons occupying the camp, or marked with easily understood pictures or symbols. II. Special Issues for Comment OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues: • Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the Agency’s functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; • The accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used, especially the number of temporary labor camps in the United States; and • The quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and • Ways to minimize the burden on employers who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submissions of responses. III. Proposed Actions OSHA is requesting OMB to extend their approval of the collection of information requirements contained in the Temporary Labor Camps Standard. OSHA will summarize the comments submitted in response to this notice, and will include this summary in its request to OMB. The Agency is requesting a 12-hour decrease in burden hours as a result of employers reporting fewer incidences of employees having, or suspected of having, a communicable disease, suspected food poisoning, or an unusual prevalence of any illness in which fever, diarrhea, sore throat, vomiting, or jaundice is a prominent symptom. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved information collection requirement. Title: Temporary Labor Camps (29 CFR 1910.142). OMB Number: 1218–0096.

Therefore, as required by 10 CFR 51.21, the NRC is issuing this environmental assessment and finding of no significant impact. Environmental Assessment Identification of the Proposed Action The proposed action, as described in the licensee’s application for a one-time exemption to the requirements of 10 CFR part 50, Appendix E, dated October 5, 2005, would allow the licensee to postpone the biennial, full-participation emergency exercise from November 2, 2005, to June 7, 2006. The licensee’s letter requested an exemption from sections IV.F.2.b and c of Appendix E to 10 CFR part 50 regarding exercises involving the onsite and offsite emergency plans, as well as TVA’s Radiological Emergency Plan Sections 14.2.1.1 and 14.2.1.3. The NRC staff has determined that the requirements of Appendix E to 10 CFR part 50, Sections IV.F.2.b and 2.c are applicable to the circumstances of the licensee’s request and that an exemption from those requirements is appropriate. The licensee also stated in its October 5, 2005, letter that WBN will resume its normal biennial exercise cycle in 2007. The Need for the Proposed Action The proposed exemption from 10 CFR part 50, appendix E, sections IV.F.2.b and c is needed because the planned full-participation exercise originally scheduled for November 2, 2005, was not performed. The Federal Emergency Management Agency, which normally participates in the evaluated, fullparticipation exercise, and the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency were unable to provide the necessary resources for the exercise due to the impact of Hurricane Katrina. PO 00000 Frm 00029 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Action The NRC has completed its safety evaluation of the proposed action and concludes that the proposed exemption would not present an undue risk to the public health and safety. The details of the NRC staff’s safety evaluation will be provided in the exemption that will be issued as part of the letter to the licensee approving the exemption to the regulation. The proposed action relates to the exercising of the emergency response plan, which has no effect on the operation of the facility. The proposed action will not significantly increase the probability or consequences of accidents. No changes are being made in the types of effluents that may be released offsite. There is no significant increase in the amount of any effluent released offsite. There is no significant increase in occupational or public radiation exposure. Therefore, there are no significant radiological environmental impacts associated with the proposed action. With regard to potential nonradiological impacts, the proposed action does not have a potential to affect any historic sites. It does not affect nonradiological plant effluents and has no other environmental impact. Therefore, there are no significant non-radiological environmental impacts associated with the proposed action. Accordingly, the NRC concludes that there are no significant environmental impacts associated with the proposed action. Environmental Impacts of the Alternative to the Proposed Action As an alternative to the proposed action, the staff considered denial of the proposed action (i.e., the ‘‘no-action’’ alternative). Denial of the application would result in no change in current environmental impacts. The environmental impacts of the proposed action and the alternative action are similar. Alternative Use of Resources The action does not involve the use of any different resources than those previously considered in the Final Environmental Statement Related to the Operation of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, NUREG 0498, dated December 1978, and a supplement to the Final Environmental Statement (NUREG 0498 Supplement No. 1), dated April 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce 
paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an 
opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information 
collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (PRA-95)(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures that 
information is in the desired format, reporting burden (time and costs) 
is minimal, collection instruments are clearly understood, and OSHA's 
estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The 
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the Act)(29 U.S.C. 651 et 
seq.) authorizes information collection by employers as necessary or 
appropriate for enforcement of the Act or for developing information 
regarding the causes and prevention of occupational injuries, 
illnesses, and accidents (29 U.S.C. 657).
    OSHA will be requesting approval from the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) for certain information collection requirements contained 
in the Temporary Labor Camps Standard (29 CFR 1910.142). The main 
purpose of these provisions is to eliminate the incidence of 
communicable disease among temporary labor camp residents. The Standard 
requires camp superintendents to report immediately to the local health 
officer the name and address of any individual in the camp known to 
have, or suspected of having, a communicable disease. Whenever there is 
a case of suspected food poisoning or an unusual prevalence of any 
illness in which fever, diarrhea, sore throat, vomiting or jaundice is 
a prominent symptom, the Standard requires the camp superintendent to 
report that immediately to the health authority. In addition, the 
Standard requires that where the toilet rooms are shared, separate 
toilet rooms must be provided for each sex. These rooms must be marked 
``for men'' and ``for women'' by signs printed in English and in the 
native language of the persons occupying the camp, or marked with 
easily understood pictures or symbols.

II. Special Issues for Comment

    OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues:
     Whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the Agency's functions, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
     The accuracy of the Agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used, especially the number of temporary 
labor camps in the United States; and
     The quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
collected; and
     Ways to minimize the burden on employers who are to 
respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, 
mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms 
of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submissions of 
responses.

III. Proposed Actions

    OSHA is requesting OMB to extend their approval of the collection 
of information requirements contained in the Temporary Labor Camps 
Standard. OSHA will summarize the comments submitted in response to 
this notice, and will include this summary in its request to OMB. The 
Agency is requesting a 12-hour decrease in burden hours as a result of 
employers reporting fewer incidences of employees having, or suspected 
of having, a communicable disease, suspected food poisoning, or an 
unusual prevalence of any illness in which fever, diarrhea, sore 
throat, vomiting, or jaundice is a prominent symptom.
