Environmental Consideration
consistent with NRC approved Industry/
Technical Specification Task Force
(TSTF) Standard Technical Specifcation
Change Traveler, TSTF–491, Revision 2.
Basis for proposed no-significanthazards-consideration determination:
As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), an
analysis of the issue of no-significanthazards-consideration is presented
below:
The amendment[s] change[s] a
requirement with respect to the
installation or use of a facility
component located within the restricted
area as defined in 10 CFR part 20 or
surveillance requirements. The NRC
staff has determined that the
amendment involves no significant
increase in the amounts, and no
significant change in the types, of any
effluents that may be released offsite,
and that there is no significant increase
in individual or cumulative
occupational radiation exposure. The
Commission has previously issued a
proposed finding that the amendment
involves no significant hazards
consideration and there has been no
public comment on such finding
published [DATE] ([ ] FR [ ]).
Accordingly, the amendment meets the
eligibility criteria for categorical
exclusion set forth in 10 CFR
51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b),
no environmental impact statement or
environmental assessment need be
prepared in connection with the
issuance of the amendment.6.0
Conclusion
The Commission has concluded,
based on the considerations discussed
above, that (1) There is reasonable
assurance that the health and safety of
the public will not be endangered by
operation in the proposed manner, (2)
such activities will be conducted in
compliance with the Commission’s
regulations, and (3) the issuance of the
amendment will not be inimical to the
common defense and security or to the
health and safety of the public.
Proposed No Significant Hazards
Consideration Determination
Description of Amendment Request:
[Plant name] requests adoption of an
approved change to the standard
technical specifications (STS) for
Babcock and Wilcock PWR STS
Revision 3.0 of NUREG–1430,
Combustion Engineering PWR STS
Revision 3.0 of NUREG–1432 and
Westinghouse PWR STS Revision 3.0 of
NUREG–1431 plant specific technical
specifications (TS), to allow relocating
the main steam and main feedwater
isolation valve closure times to a
Licensee Controlled Document that is
referenced in the Bases. The changes are
Criterion 1—The Proposed Change Does Not
Involve a Significant Increase in the
Probability or Consequences of an Accident
Previously Evaluated
The proposed change allows relocating
main steam and main feedwater valve
isolation times to the Licensee Controlled
Document that is referenced in the Bases.
The proposed change is described in
Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF)
Standard TS Change Traveler TSTF–491
related to relocating the main steam and
main feedwater valves isolation times to the
Licensee Controlled Document that is
referenced in the Bases and replacing the
isolation time with the phase, ‘‘within
limits.’’
The proposed change does not involve a
physical alteration of the plant (no new or
different type of equipment will be installed).
The proposed changes relocate the main
steam and main feedwater isolation valve
times to the Licensee Controlled Document
that is referenced in the Bases. The
requirements to perform the testing of these
isolation valves are retained in the TS. Future
changes to the Bases or licensee-controlled
document will be evaluated pursuant to the
requirements of 10 CFR 50.59, ‘‘ Changes, test
and experiments’’, to ensure that such
changes do not result in more than minimal
increase in the probability or consequences
of an accident previously evaluated.
The proposed changes do not adversely
affect accident initiators or precursors nor
alter the design assumptions, conditions, and
configuration of the facility or the manner in
which the plant is operated and maintained.
The proposed changes do not adversely affect
the ability of structures, systems and
components (SSCs) to perform their intended
safety function to mitigate the consequences
of an initiating event within the assumed
acceptance limits. The proposed changes do
not affect the source term, containment
isolation, or radiological consequences of any
accident previously evaluated. Further, the
proposed changes do not increase the types
and the amounts of radioactive effluent that
may be released, nor significantly increase
individual or cumulative occupation/public
radiation exposures.
Therefore, the changes do not involve a
significant increase in the probability or
consequences of any accident previously
evaluated.
Criterion 2—The Proposed Change Does Not
Create the Possibility of a New or Different
Kind of Accident from any Previously
Evaluated
The proposed changes relocate the main
steam and main feedwater valve isolation
times to the Licensee Controlled Document
4.0
State Consultation
In accordance with the Commission’s
regulations, the [lll] State official
was notified of the proposed issuance of
the amendment. The State official had
[(1) no comments or (2) the following
comments—with subsequent
disposition by the staff].

that is referenced in the Bases. In addition,
the valve isolation times are replaced in the
TS with the phase ‘‘within limits’’. The
changes do not involve a physical altering of
the plant (i.e., no new or different type of
equipment will be installed) or a change in
methods governing normal pant operation.
The requirements in the TS continue to
require testing of the main steam and main
feedwater isolation valves to ensure the
proper functioning of these isolation valves.
Therefore, the changes do not create the
possibility of a new or different kind of
accident from any previously evaluated.
Criterion 3—The Proposed Change Does Not
Involve a Significant Reduction in the Margin
of Safety
The proposed changes relocate the main
steam and main feedwater valve isolation
times to the Licensee Controlled Document
that is referenced in the Bases. In addition,
the valve isolation times are replaced in the
TS with the phase ‘‘within limits’’.
Instituting the proposed changes will
continue to ensure the testing of main steam
and main feedwater isolation valves. Changes
to the Bases or license controlled document
are performed in accordance with 10 CFR
50.59. This approach provides an effective
level of regulatory control and ensures that
main steam and feedwater isolation valve
testing is conducted such that there is no
significant reduction in the margin of safety.
The margin of safety provided by the
isolation valves is unaffected by the proposed
changes since there continue to be TS
requirements to ensure the testing of main
steam and main feedwater isolation valves.
The proposed changes maintain sufficient
controls to preserve the current margins of
safety.
Based upon the reasoning above, the
NRC staff concludes that the
amendment request involves no
significant hazards consideration.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub.

05OCN1
mstockstill on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 193 / Thursday, October 5, 2006 / Notices
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 this request is
necessary to facilitate the timely
nomination of PMF applicants to the
PMF Program. This also serves as the 60
Day Notice for review for full clearance.
As a result of Executive Order 13318
and OPM regulations on the PMF
Program issued on May 19, 2005 (70 FR
28775), effective June 20, 2005, eligible
graduate students interested in applying
to the PMF Program must be nominated
by their accredited graduate school’s
Dean, Chairperson, or Academic
Program Director (otherwise referred to
as the Nomination Official). In addition,
per OMB’s approval of the OPM Form
1300 for the PMF Class of 2006 on
September 31, 2005, several
contingencies were requested. One of
those contingencies was for OPM to
commit to developing future systems/
system changes that would streamline
the application process for those seeking
Federal jobs.
The following significant changes
have been made to the application and
nomination process: (1) The PMF
Program has recently migrated from an
in-house online application and resume
builder system to a vacancy
announcement approach via USAJOBS;
and (2) the nomination process was
modified to create a PMF Nomination
Form (which OPM proposes to become
the new OPM Form 1300), which will
serve as a fax-back form for the
Nomination Official to fill-out and fax to
OPM. Applicants will be directed to a
vacancy announcement on USAJOBS
and asked to upload their resume. Upon
submission of their application, a
Nomination Form will generate for the
applicant to hand-carry to their school’s
Nomination Official for possible
nomination to the PMF Program. If at
any stage the applicant is found
ineligible or ultimately not selected as a
Finalist, he/she would still have the
flexibility to apply to other Federal
opportunities on USAJOBS.
We estimate 2,500 to 3,000
applications will be received and
processed in the 2006/2007 open season
for PMF applications. During the 2005/
2006 open season OPM received
approximately 2,982 applications,
leading to 2,755 nominations by
colleges and universities. Using the new
OPM Form 1300 (PMF Nomination
Form) we estimate Nomination Officials
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:42 Oct 04, 2006
Jkt 211001
will need one-half hour to receive,
review, and render a decision for
nomination. The annual estimated
burden for Nomination Officials to
select nominees is 1,500 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.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub.
L. 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice
[[Page 58889]]
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 this request is necessary to facilitate the timely nomination of PMF
applicants to the PMF Program. This also serves as the 60 Day Notice
for review for full clearance.
As a result of Executive Order 13318 and OPM regulations on the PMF
Program issued on May 19, 2005 (70 FR 28775), effective June 20, 2005,
eligible graduate students interested in applying to the PMF Program
must be nominated by their accredited graduate school's Dean,
Chairperson, or Academic Program Director (otherwise referred to as the
Nomination Official). In addition, per OMB's approval of the OPM Form
1300 for the PMF Class of 2006 on September 31, 2005, several
contingencies were requested. One of those contingencies was for OPM to
commit to developing future systems/system changes that would
streamline the application process for those seeking Federal jobs.
The following significant changes have been made to the application
and nomination process: (1) The PMF Program has recently migrated from
an in-house online application and resume builder system to a vacancy
announcement approach via USAJOBS; and (2) the nomination process was
modified to create a PMF Nomination Form (which OPM proposes to become
the new OPM Form 1300), which will serve as a fax-back form for the
Nomination Official to fill-out and fax to OPM. Applicants will be
directed to a vacancy announcement on USAJOBS and asked to upload their
resume. Upon submission of their application, a Nomination Form will

Official for possible nomination to the PMF Program. If at any stage
the applicant is found ineligible or ultimately not selected as a
Finalist, he/she would still have the flexibility to apply to other
Federal opportunities on USAJOBS.
We estimate 2,500 to 3,000 applications will be received and
processed in the 2006/2007 open season for PMF applications. During the
2005/2006 open season OPM received approximately 2,982 applications,
leading to 2,755 nominations by colleges and universities. Using the
new OPM Form 1300 (PMF Nomination Form) we estimate Nomination
Officials will need one-half hour to receive, review, and render a

Officials to select nominees is 1,500 hours.
