Broad Scope Materials License No. 24–00513–39 authorizes the possession and use of various byproduct, special nuclear, and source material at the Licensee’s facility. The facility is located on the Licensee’s campus in Columbia, Missouri. rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES II On March 19 and April 5, 1990, the NRC staff issued two license amendments applicable to the Licensee’s Special Nuclear Material and Source Material License No. SNM–247. At the request of the Licensee, the NRC terminated Special Nuclear Material and Source Material License No. SNM–247 on July 7, 1993. On that day, the Commission included the special nuclear materials that were listed on Special Nuclear Material and Source Material License No. SNM–247 in the University’s newly issued Broad Scope Materials License No. 24–00513–39. The amendments collectively authorized the Licensee to possess and use certain specified quantities of uranium (depleted in U–235), neptunium-237, americium-241, plutonium-239, and plutonium-240. The Licensee’s purpose in requesting the amendments was to conduct research related to the VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:47 Jan 31, 2007 Jkt 211001 Transuranic Management by Pyropartitioning Separation (TRUMP–S) Research Project. The Licensee carried out this research in the Alpha laboratory at the MURR. Three organizations and 10 individuals filed motions to intervene and requests for hearing on the license amendments. In response to the intervenors’ filings, the Commission appointed a Presiding Officer to conduct an informal hearing pursuant to Subpart L, ‘‘Informal Hearing Procedures for NRC Adjudications’’ of the Commission’s procedural regulations in 10 CFR part 2, ‘‘Rules of Practice for Domestic Licensing Proceedings and Issuance of Orders.’’ The Presiding Officer issued a First Initial Decision on April 5, 1991, followed by a Final Initial Decision on July 10, 1991. The Licensee and the intervenors appealed various aspects of the proceeding and decisions of the Presiding Officer and the Commission to the Commission. In response, the Commission issued Memorandum and Order, CLI–95–01, dated February 28, 1995; Memorandum and Order, CLI–95– 08, (Petitions for Reconsideration), dated June 22, 1995; Memorandum and Order, CLI–95–11, (Petition for Partial Reconsideration), dated August 22, 1995; and Memorandum and Order, CLI–95–17, (Petition for Reconsideration), dated December 14, 1995. The first three of these memoranda and orders required the Licensee to make changes to the MURR Emergency Plan (EP). The MURR EP was changed because the material, while under a NRC broad scope materials license, was being used in the Alpha Laboratory at MURR. In response to the memoranda and orders, the Licensee submitted proposed changes to the EP on December 20, 1995, as supplemented on May 1, 1996. The NRC staff reviewed the Licensee’s proposed changes to the EP and, in a letter to the Licensee dated June 20, 1996, concluded that the proposed changes to the EP met the intent of the Commission’s memoranda and orders and were acceptable as written. III By letter dated March 31, 2004, the Licensee requested changes to the EP to remove the requirements added to it by the Commission’s memoranda and orders related to the TRUMP–S Research Project. The Licensee also requested the recision of the Commission’s memoranda and orders requiring changes to the EP. The Licensee completed experiments at the MURR related to the TRUMP–S Research Project on September 30, 1997. PO 00000 Frm 00052 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 4731 By July 20, 1998, the Licensee had shipped all low-level waste from the project and completed final verification surveys documenting the decommissioning of the Alpha Laboratory. All transuranic waste (americium, neptunium, and plutonium) was shipped from the MURR to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant on May 15, 2003. The NRC renewed Broad Scope Materials License No. 24– 00513–39, effective December 22, 2003, with reduced possession limits for the radioisotope types associated with the TRUMP–S Research Project. The renewed license possession limits allow no radioisotope quantities in excess of the quantities listed in 10 CFR 30.72 Schedule C, ‘‘Quantities of Radioactive Materials Requiring Consideration of the Need for an Emergency Plan for Responding to a Release.’’ The NRC staff reviewed the Licensee’s proposed changes to the EP and concluded that they will not decrease the effectiveness of the EP and are therefore acceptable. IV Accordingly, pursuant to Sections 104c, 161b and 161i of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the Commission’s regulations in 10 CFR part 50, it is hereby ordered that: The changes to the University of Missouri Research Reactor Emergency Plan imposed by Commission-issued Memoranda and Orders CLI–95–01 dated February 28, 1995; CLI–95–08 dated June 22, 1995; and CLI–95–11 dated August 22, 1995, are hereby deleted and the changes to the Emergency Plan for the University of Missouri Research Reactor in the Licensee’s letter of March 31, 2004, are approved. V Pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, the licensee or any other person adversely affected by this Order may request a hearing within 30 days of the date of publication of this Order in the Federal Register.

NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS ADMINISTRATION


Records Schedules; Availability and Request for Comments

AGENCY: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

ACTION: Notice of availability of proposed records schedules; request 
for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) 
publishes notice at least once monthly of certain Federal agency 
requests for records disposition authority (records schedules). Once 
approved by NARA, records schedules provide mandatory instructions on 
what happens to records

[[Page 4729]]

when no longer needed for current Government business. They authorize 
the preservation of records of continuing value in the National 
Archives of the United States and the destruction, after a specified 
period, of records lacking administrative, legal, research, or other 
value. Notice is published for records schedules in which agencies 
propose to destroy records not previously authorized for disposal or 
reduce the retention period of records already authorized for disposal. 
NARA invites public comments on such records schedules, as required by 
44 U.S.C. 3303a(a).

DATES: Requests for copies must be received in writing on or before 
March 5, 2007. (Note that the new time period for requesting copies has 
changed from 45 to 30 days after publication). Once the appraisal of 
the records is completed, NARA will send a copy of the schedule. NARA 
staff usually prepare appraisal memorandums that contain additional 
information concerning the records covered by a proposed schedule. 
These, too, may be requested and will be provided once the appraisal is 
completed. Requesters will be given 30 days to submit comments.

ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of any records schedule identified in 
this notice by contacting the Life Cycle Management Division (NWML) 
using one of the following means:
    Mail: NARA (NWML), 8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, MD 20740-6001.
    E-mail: requestschedule@nara.gov.
    FAX: 301-837-3698.
    Requesters must cite the control number, which appears in 
parentheses after the name of the agency which submitted the schedule, 
and must provide a mailing address. Those who desire appraisal reports 
should so indicate in their request.

Management Division (NWML), National Archives and Records 
Administration, 8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, MD 20740-6001. 
Telephone: 301-837-1539. E-mail: records.mgt@nara.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year Federal agencies create billions 
of records on paper, film, magnetic tape, and other media. To control 
this accumulation, agency records managers prepare schedules proposing 
retention periods for records and submit these schedules for NARA's 
approval, using the Standard Form (SF) 115, Request for Records 
Disposition Authority. These schedules provide for the timely transfer 
into the National Archives of historically valuable records and 
authorize the disposal of all other records after the agency no longer 
needs them to conduct its business. Some schedules are comprehensive 
and cover all the records of an agency or one of its major 
subdivisions. Most schedules, however, cover records of only one office 
or program or a few series of records. Many of these update previously 
approved schedules, and some include records proposed as permanent.
    No Federal records are authorized for destruction without the 
approval of the Archivist of the United States. This approval is 
granted only after a thorough consideration of their administrative use 
by the agency of origin, the rights of the Government and of private 
persons directly affected by the Government's activities, and whether 
or not they have historical or other value.
    Besides identifying the Federal agencies and any subdivisions 
requesting disposition authority, this public notice lists the 
organizational unit(s) accumulating the records or indicates agency-
wide applicability in the case of schedules that cover records that may 
be accumulated throughout an agency. This notice provides the control 
number assigned to each schedule, the total number of schedule items, 
and the number of temporary items (the records proposed for 
destruction). It also includes a brief description of the temporary 
records. The records schedule itself contains a full description of the 
records at the file unit level as well as their disposition. If NARA 
staff has prepared an appraisal memorandum for the schedule, it too 
includes information about the records. Further information about the 
disposition process is available on request.
