SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Evaluation of the
National Science Foundation—National
Institutes for Health Bioengineering and
Bioinformatics Summer Institutes
(BBSI) Program.
OMB Number: 3145–0121.
Expiration Date of Approval: One
year.
Type of Request: Reinstate and
modify.
Abstract: The National Science
Foundation (NSF) and the National
Institute of Bioinformatics and
Bioengineering (NIBIB), a new
component of the National Institutes of
Health, established a jointly funded
program run by NSF called the
Bioengineering and Bioinformatics
Summer Institutes (BBSI) Program to
begin creating a supply of professionals
trained in bioengineering and
bioinformatics. This workforce initiative
complements research and education
efforts in these fields funded by both
agencies and constitutes a high profile
effort to meet the anticipated human
resource needs for bioengineering and
bioinformatices.
The program is designed to provide
students majoring in the biological
sciences, computer sciences,
engineering, mathematics, and physical
sciences with well planned
interdisciplinary experiences in
bioengineering or bioinformatics
research and education, in very active
‘Summer Institutes’; thereby increasing
the number of young people considering
careers in bioengineering and
bioinformatics at the graduate level and
beyond.
NIBIB and NSF’s Division of
Engineering Education and Centers
(EEC) wish to learn whether the BBSI
VerDate Aug<31>2005
17:01 Jul 05, 2006
Jkt 208001
Program as originally conceived is
achieving its objectives and programlevel outcomes, and to collect lessons
learned for improvement of program
design and implementation. This shortterm evaluation is expected to provide
information on what educational and
career decisions have ben affected by
participation in a Summer Institute,
what elements of the students’ BBSI
affect student outcomes, and how the
program can be improved, e.g., through
changes in specific program-wide
design components, expected outcomes,
proposal review criteria, etc.
The survey data collection will be
done on the World Wide Web.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 30 minutes per
response.
Respondents: Individuals.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Form: 800.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 400 hours (880
respondents at 30 minutes per
response).
Frequency of Response: Once.
Comments: Comments are invited on
(a) whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information on respondents,
including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

Notice of the OMB review of
information collection and solicitation
of public comment.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The NRC has recently
submitted to OMB for review the
following proposal for the collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35). The NRC hereby
informs potential respondents that an
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and
that a person is not required to respond
to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
1. Type of submission, new, revision,
or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information
collection: NRC Form 244, Registration
Certificate—Use of Depleted Uranium
under General License.
3. The form number if applicable:
NRC Form 244.
4. How often the collection is
required: On occasion. NRC Form 244 is
submitted when depleted uranium is
received or transferred under general
license. Information on NRC Form 244
is collected and evaluated on a
continuing basis as events occur.
5. Who will be required or asked to
report: Persons receiving, possessing,
using, or transferring depleted uranium
under the general license established in
10 CFR 40.25(a).
6. An estimate of the number of
annual responses: 5 (2 NRC licensees
and 3 Agreement State licensees).
7. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 5 (2 NRC licensees and 3
Agreement State licensees).
8. The number of hours needed
annually to complete the requirement or
request: 5 (1 hour per response—2 hours
for NRC licensees and 3 hours for
Agreement State licensees).
9. An indication of whether section
3507(d), Public Law 104–13 applies: Not
applicable.
10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 40
establishes requirements for licenses for
the receipt, possession, use and transfer
of radioactive source and byproduct
material. NRC Form 244 is used to
report receipt and transfer of depleted
uranium under general license, as
required by section 40.25. The
registration certification information
required by NRC Form 244 is necessary
to permit the NRC to make a
determination on whether the
possession, use, and transfer of depleted
uranium source and byproduct material
is in conformance with the
Commission’s regulations for protection
of public health and safety.

Introduction
Notice is hereby given that by petition
dated April 4, 2006, Mr. Terry J. Lodge
(Counsel for Petitioners) has requested
that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) take action with regard to the
VerDate Aug<31>2005
17:01 Jul 05, 2006

Nuclear Management Company, LLC
(NMC) Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP).
The petitioners’ request that the NRC
take enforcement action against PNP by
condemning and stopping the use of the
two independent spent fuel storage
installation (ISFSI) concrete pads,
constructed in 1992 and 2003, which
hold dry spent fuel storage casks at the
plant site.

[Docket Nos. 50–361 and 50–362]
As the basis for the request, the
petitioners state that both ISFSI concrete
pads at PNP do not conform to NRC
requirements for earthquake stability
standards and pose a distinct hazard in
the event of an earthquake.
The request concerning slope stability
of the 2003 concrete pad is being treated
pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206 of the
Commission’s regulations. The request
has been referred to the Director of the
Spent Fuel Project Office within the
Office of Nuclear Material Safety and
Safeguards. As provided by 10 CFR
2.206, appropriate action will be taken
on this petition within a reasonable
time. Representatives of Mr. Lodge
spoke with the Petition Review Board
on April 26, 2006, to discuss the
petition. The results of that discussion
were considered in the Board’s
determination regarding condemning
and stopping the use of the two ISFSI
concrete pads and in establishing a
schedule for the review of the petition.
By letter dated June 27, 2006, the Spent
Fuel Project Office Deputy Director
accepted the petition for review in part,
specifically with respect to slope
stability of the concrete pad constructed
in 2003.

Background
Southern California Edison Company
(the licensee) is the holder of Facility
Operating License Nos. NPF–10 and
NPF–15, which authorize operation of
the San Onofre Nuclear Generating
Station, Unit 2 and Unit 3 (SONGS 2
and 3), respectively. The licenses
provide, among other things, that the
facility is subject to all rules,
regulations, and orders of the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC,
the Commission) now or hereafter in
effect.
The facility consists of two
pressurized-water reactors located in
San Diego County, California.

Request/action
Title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), Part 50, Appendix
G, which is invoked by 10 CFR 50.60,
requires that pressure-temperature (P-T)
limits be established for reactor pressure
vessels (RPVs) during normal operating
and hydrostatic or leak rate testing
conditions. Specifically, 10 CFR Part 50,
Appendix G, states that ‘‘[t]he
appropriate requirements on both the
pressure-temperature limits and the
minimum permissible temperature must
be met for all conditions,’’ and ‘‘[t]he
pressure-temperature limits identified
as ‘ASME [American Society for
Mechanical Engineers] Appendix G
limits’ in Table 3 require that the limits
must be at least as conservative as limits
obtained by following the methods of
analysis and the margins of safety of
Appendix G of Section XI of the ASME
Code [Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Code].’’ Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code
of Federal Regulations, Appendix G,
also specifies that the editions and
addenda of the ASME Code, Section XI,
which are incorporated by reference in
10 CFR 50.55a, apply to the
requirements in 10 CFR Part 50,
