per year.’’ The commenter states that,
‘‘it is not clear why an acceptable design
and operational concept would include
planning for SSC failures, more often
than once per year, that resulted in a
radiation dose,’’ and these should be
considered ‘‘as part of normal
operations as opposed to as a Category
1 event sequence.’’
Response. The Part 63 definition of
‘‘controlled area’’ is found in Subpart
L—‘‘Postclosure Public Health and
Environmental Standards,’’ in section
63.302, and not in Subpart K—
‘‘Preclosure Public Health and
Environmental Standards.’’ Since 10
CFR 63.111(a) requires the GROA to
meet the requirements of Part 20, the
Part 20 definitions are to be applied
within the context of Part 63. The site
boundary is analogous to the controlled
area, defined in Part 20, because the
preclosure limits are based on the
boundary of the site, defined for
preclosure, as that area, surrounding the
GROA, for which DOE exercises
authority over its use, in accordance
with the provisions of Part 63. DOE
should clearly identify the controlled
site boundary in its demonstration of
compliance with Part 20 requirements.
However, NRC agrees that the use of the
term ‘‘controlled area site boundary’’
may be confusing, and thus is deleting
that term from the ISG.
The second term, ‘‘doses from those
Category 1 event sequences that are
expected to occur one or more times per
year’’ is used in the ISG method to
aggregate doses. Although NRC agrees
with the commenter that ITS SSCs
should be designed and maintained in
such a manner to prevent or avoid
frequent failure, this term does not
imply that a design that plans for
frequent occurrences of ITS SSCs will
be acceptable to NRC. Rather, this term
is used to ensure that if the applicant
submits an application with a Category
1 event sequence that occurs more than
once per year, then the reviewer will
include all occurrences of that event,
when determining if the estimated
annual dose meets the performance
objectives of Part 63.
ISG line 21 has been revised by
changing ‘‘controlled site boundary’’ to
‘‘controlled area.’’
ISG lines 36 and 37 have been revised
by deleting the sentence, ‘‘The site
boundary * * * Part 20.’’
ISG lines 55 and 56 have been revised
by changing ‘‘controlled area site
boundaries’’ to ‘‘the boundaries of the
controlled area.’’
ISG line 136 has been revised by
changing ‘‘controlled area site
boundary’’ to ‘‘boundary of the site.’’

ISG line 144 has been revised by
changing ‘‘controlled area site

ISG lines 169 and 177 have been
revised by changing ‘‘controlled-area

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit this collection of
information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension
and approval.
Rule 15Bc3–1 (17 CFR 240.15Bc3–1)
under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) provides
that a notice of withdrawal from
registration with the Commission as a
bank municipal securities dealer must
be filed on Form MSDW.

The Commission uses the information
submitted on Form MSDW in
determining whether it is in the public
interest to permit a bank municipal
securities dealer to withdraw its
registration. This information is also
important to the municipal securities
dealer’s customers and to the public,
because it provides, among other things,
the name and address of a person to
contact regarding any of the municipal
securities dealer’s unfinished business.
Based upon past submissions, the
staff estimates that approximately 20
respondents in total will utilize this
notice procedure annually, with a total
burden of 10 hours for all respondents.
The staff estimates that the average
number of hours necessary for each
respondent to comply with the
requirements of Rule 15Bc3–1 is 0.5
hours. The average cost per hour is
approximately $101. Therefore, the total
cost of compliance for all respondents is
$1010 ($101 × 0.5 × 20 = $1010).
Written 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 will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the collection of
information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to
comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this
publication.

the Commission by a bank municipal

information contained in Form MSD to
determine whether bank municipal
securities dealers meet the standards for
registration set forth in the Exchange
Act, to develop a central registry where
members of the public may obtain
information about particular bank
municipal securities dealers, and to
develop statistical information about
bank municipal securities dealers.
Based upon past submissions, the

of 48 hours. The staff estimates that the
average number of hours necessary to
