Occupational Dose Records, Labeling Containers, and the Total Effective Dose Equivalent; Confirmation of Effective Date, 8588-8589 [E8-2801]

Download as PDF 8588 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 31 / Thursday, February 14, 2008 / Rules and Regulations This technical amendment is effective on February 14, 2008. DATES: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mark W. Lambert by telephone at (202) 606–2564; by Fax at (202) 606–5056; or by e-mail at cfc@opm.gov. In the final regulations issued on November 20, 2006, as revised on February 9, 2007, OPM included what it deemed was a clarification to the 1995 regulatory eligibility requirement contained in 5 CFR 950.202(b). OPM clarified the regulation by stating specifically that only public charities, as defined by the Internal Revenue Service, were allowed to participate in the CFC. The clarification meant that private foundations were not eligible to participate in the CFC even though some had participated for years. In a recent court decision, the United States District Court for the District of Columbia invalidated OPM’s clarification pertaining to private foundations. As a result, OPM is amending 5 CFR 950.202(b) to remove the reference to public charities from the requirement. OPM is also taking this opportunity to make three other administrative technical amendments to 5 CFR 950.101, 950.105(c)(3), and 950.105(d)(9). In 5 CFR 950.101, OPM is amending the definition of Domestic Area to include the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, and Guam to be consistent with the addition of these U.S. territories to 5 CFR 950.204(b)(2)(iii) in the November 20, 2006, changes to the CFC regulations. In 5 CFR 950.105(c)(3), OPM is removing a reference to provision 950.403 since it no longer exists after the changes made on November 20, 2006. In 5 CFR 950.105(d)(9), OPM is removing the date for the submission of a campaign audit and adding a reference to OPM’s calendar, which will include the date. This change is consistent with other changes made in the November 20, 2006, CFC regulations. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ebenthall on PRODPC61 with RULES Regulatory Flexibility Act I certify that this regulation will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Charitable organizations applying to the CFC have an existing, independent obligation to comply with the eligibility and public accountability standards contained in current CFC regulations. These technical amendments will not cause any significant additional burden.

ACTION: Final rule: Confirmation of effective date. AGENCY: SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is confirming the effective date of February 15, 2008, for the final rule that was published in the Federal Register on December 4, 2007 (72 FR 68043). The final rule amended the NRC’s regulations on the reporting of annual dose to workers, the definition of Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE), the labeling of certain containers holding licensed material, and the determination of cumulative occupational radiation dose. On December 20, 2007 (72 FR 72233), the NRC published a document that deferred the effective date of this final rule until February 15, 2008. EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of February 15, 2008, is confirmed for this final rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission published a final rule amending regulations that would become effective January 3, 2008. The final rule, published December 4, 2007 (72 FR 68043) related to the reporting of annual dose to workers, the definition of Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE), the labeling of certain containers holding licensed material, and the determination of cumulative occupational radiation dose. This final rule limits the routine reporting of annual doses to those workers whose annual dose exceeds a specific dose threshold or who request a report. The rule also modifies the labeling requirements for certain containers holding licensed material within posted areas in nuclear power facilities, and will amend the definition of TEDE to be consistent with current Commission policy. Finally, this rule removes the requirement that licensees attempt to obtain cumulative exposure records for workers unless these individuals are being authorized to receive a planned special exposure. These revisions reduce the administrative and information collection burdens on NRC and Agreement State licensees without affecting the level of protection for either the health and safety of workers and the public, or for the environment. This final rule amends information collection requirements contained in 10 CFR parts 19, 20, and 50, and NRC Form 4 that are subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). These information collection requirements were sent for approval to the Office of Management and Budget on November 28, 2007. The effective date of this final rule was deferred to VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:28 Feb 13, 2008 Jkt 214001 allow sufficient time for OMB to complete its review of the information collections requirements imposed in this rule. Because the rule will reduce the burden for existing information collection requirements, the public burden for the information collections in 10 CFR parts 19 and NRC Form 4 is expected to be decreased by 235 and 44 hours per licensee, respectively. This reduction includes the time required for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed and completing and reviewing the information collection. The NRC has received final approval for these amended requirements by the Office of Management and Budget, approval number(s) 3150–0044, 3150–0014, 3150–0011, and 3150–0005.

The final rule amended the NRC's regulations on the reporting of annual 
dose to workers, the definition of Total Effective Dose Equivalent 
(TEDE), the labeling of certain containers holding licensed material, 
and the determination of cumulative occupational radiation dose. On 
December 20, 2007 (72 FR 72233), the NRC published a document that 
deferred the effective date of this final rule until February 15, 2008.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of February 15, 2008, is confirmed 
for this final rule.

ADDRESSES: Publicly available documents related to this rulemaking may

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission published 
a final rule amending regulations that would become effective January 
3, 2008. The final rule, published December 4, 2007 (72 FR 68043) 
related to the reporting of annual dose to workers, the definition of 
Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE), the labeling of certain 
containers holding licensed material, and the determination of 
cumulative occupational radiation dose. This final rule limits the 
routine reporting of annual doses to those workers whose annual dose 
exceeds a specific dose threshold or who request a report. The rule 
also modifies the labeling requirements for certain containers holding 
licensed material within posted areas in nuclear power facilities, and 
will amend the definition of TEDE to be consistent with current 
Commission policy. Finally, this rule removes the requirement that 
licensees attempt to obtain cumulative exposure records for workers 
unless these individuals are being authorized to receive a planned 
special exposure. These revisions reduce the administrative and 
information collection burdens on NRC and Agreement State licensees 
without affecting the level of protection for either the health and 
safety of workers and the public, or for the environment.
    This final rule amends information collection requirements 
contained in 10 CFR parts 19, 20, and 50, and NRC Form 4 that are 
subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et 
seq.). These information collection requirements were sent for approval 
to the Office of Management and Budget on November 28, 2007. The 
effective date of this final rule was deferred to allow sufficient time 
for OMB to complete its review of the information collections 
requirements imposed in this rule. Because the rule will reduce the 
burden for existing information collection requirements, the public 
burden for the information collections in 10 CFR parts 19 and NRC Form 
4 is expected to be decreased by 235 and 44 hours per licensee, 
respectively. This reduction includes the time required for reviewing 
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and 
maintaining the data needed and completing and reviewing the 
information collection. The NRC has received final approval for these 
amended requirements by the Office of Management and Budget, approval 
number(s) 3150-0044, 3150-0014, 3150-0011, and 3150-0005.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 8th day of February, 2008.
