Description: Congress enacted the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, as amended (LMRDA), to provide for the disclosure of information on the financial transactions and administrative practices of labor organizations. The statute also provides, under certain circumstances, for reporting by labor organization officers and employees, employers, labor relations consultants, and surety companies. Section 208 of the LMRDA authorizes the Secretary to issue rules and regulations prescribing the form of the required reports. The reporting provisions were devised to implement a basic tenet of the LMRDA: The guarantee of democratic procedures and safeguards within labor organizations that are designed to protect the basic rights of union members. Section 205 of the LMRDA VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:11 Sep 06, 2006 Jkt 208001 provides that the reports are public information. The Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) administers the reporting provisions of the LMRDA to the statute (29 U.S.C. 431 et seq.) and the implementing and interpreting regulations (29 CFR Chapter IV).

E6–14841 Filed 9–6–06; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 7510–13–P NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION [Docket No. 50–460; Nuclear Project No. 1 (WNP–1)] Energy Northwest; Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is terminating Construction Permit No. CPPR–134 issued to Washington Public Power Supply System (permittee, now doing business as Energy Northwest) for the Nuclear Project No. 1 (WNP–1). The facility is located at Energy Northwest’s site on the Department of Energy’s Hanford Reservation in Benton County, Washington, approximately 8 miles north of Richland, Washington. rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES Environmental Assessment Identification of Proposed Action The proposed action is issuance of an Order that would terminate Construction Permit No. CPPR–134 for the partially completed and previously deferred WNP–1 facility. Because the construction permit for Unit 4 (WNP–4) was effectively subsumed in the Unit 1 construction permit on November 27, 1985, the proposed action would VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:26 Sep 06, 2006 Jkt 208001 terminate NRC oversight at the Unit 1 and Unit 4 site area. The proposed action is in response to Energy Northwest’s request dated August 9, 2005, supplemented by letter dated July 7, 2006. The Need for the Proposed Action The proposed action is needed to allow the permitee to undertake other activities (aside from the construction and possible future operation of a nuclear power plant) at the WNP–1 and WNP–4 site area. For example, Energy Northwest is investigating the possible use of the WNP–1⁄4 site for an industrial park. An application for an operating license was filed with the NRC for WNP–1; the Operating License Proceeding was terminated by the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board on July 26, 2000. The construction permit for Unit 1 would have expired on June 1, 2011. Energy Northwest requested the termination of the WNP–1 construction permit because it has determined that it will not complete construction of either WNP–1 or WNP–4; it has terminated the construction of the nuclear power plants as well as the maintenance of layup activities such that neither unit can be operated as a utilization facility. Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Action The WNP–1 and adjacent WNP–4 sites are located on a portion of the Hanford Reservation in Washington State that the permittee has leased from U.S. Department of Energy. The environmental impacts associated with the construction of the facility have been previously discussed and evaluated in the Final Environmental Statement (FES) prepared as part of the NRC staff’s review of the construction permit application, NUREG–75/012, March 1975. Construction was suspended on the partially-completed WNP–1 Project in 1982. The construction of WNP–1 was approximately 65 percent complete; therefore, most of the construction impacts discussed in the FES have already occurred. This action would terminate the authorization to conduct any of the remaining construction activities described in the FES and would also terminate NRC’s oversight for activities at the site area. Restoration of the site is being conducted in accordance with Washington State Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council (EFSEC) Resolution No. 302 (Resolution). This resolution contains the requirements and schedule for restoration of the WNP–1 and WNP– 4 sites, as agreed to by Energy Northwest, Bonneville Power PO 00000 Frm 00066 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Administration, U.S. Department of Energy, and the State of Washington. This agreement, approved by the four parties in December 2003, stipulated restoration activities in two phases— near term (within 18 to 24 months) and final restoration (within approximately 26 years, or by the end of 2029). The NRC staff assessed the scope of the restoration activities addressed in the Resolution and has determined that the goals and objectives of such activities, when carried out, would achieve an environmentally stable and aesthetically acceptable site. Energy Northwest has stated that all near term activities have been completed. Near term restoration activities that have been completed at the WNP–1 and WNP–4 site area include: removal of hazardous materials (such as asbestos, mercury vapor lights, transformer mineral oil or polychlorinated biphenyls [PCBs], diesel fuel, lubricants, and solvents); installation of secure access doors or permanent sealing of points of entry to the remaining structures on the sites; relocation of fencing and installation of new fencing to minimize the land area and to reduce unauthorized entry potential such that security patrols are not required; installation of ‘‘No Trespassing’’ signs; elimination of fall hazards; fencing of exterior substations and distribution load centers to minimize the potential for entry; and removal of temporary buildings that are neither safe nor feasible for reuse. The Unit 1 Containment Building has been cleaned to remove trash, debris, overhead hazards, scaffolding, and formwork. Under the Resolution, this building will remain intact as constructed—no further actions will be needed for the Unit 1 containment at the final restoration phase. The Unit 4 Containment Building has been cleaned to remove trash, debris, overhead hazards, scaffolding, and formwork. This building was filled with compacted earth to elevation 479′ and a 6″ thick concrete floor was poured at that level. (The ground elevation around the containment and general services buildings at WNP–1 and WNP–4 is approximately 455′ above mean sea level.) Openings in the Unit 4 Containment Building were either sealed or fitted with anti-bird roosting screens; building protrusions were minimized or fitted with anti-bird roosting screens. Provision was made for water drainage. Under the Resolution, this building will remain in its existing condition—no further actions will be needed for the Unit 4 containment at the final restoration phase. E:\FR\FM\07SEN1.SGM 07SEN1
