The applicant plans to collect sediment cores and seep invertebrates from the Larsen B embayment in order to (1) Characterize trophic relations between sediment bacteria, clams and other macro-invertebrates present in newly-discovered cold seeps; (2) provide a preliminary assessment of the genetic population structure of Larsen B cold seep clams; and (3) characterize the evolutionary relationship between Larsen B cold seep clams and other members of the family Vesicomyidae. In addition, the applicant will deploy North Atlantic Right Whale vertebrae bones and pine wood substrate on eight moorings scattered through the Larsen B embayment. If time permits, invertebrates will be collected from the whale bone and wood substrates. During their second season, additional sediment cores will be collected as well as invertebrates, and the bone and wood moorings will be recovered. Location Larsen B Embayment, Antarctica.

Jkt 217001 In the Matter of Tennessee Valley Authority (Bellefonte Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2); Order The U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (predecessor to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission)) issued construction permit (CP) Nos. CPPR–122 and CPPR– 123 to the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA or the applicant) on December 24, 1974, authorizing construction of the Bellefonte Nuclear Plant (Bellefonte or PO 00000 Frm 00093 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10969 BLN) Units 1 and 2, respectively, at the applicant’s site in Jackson County, AL, on a peninsula at Tennessee River Mile 392 on the west shore of Guntersville Reservoir, about 6 miles east northeast of Scottsboro, AL. On March 4, 2003, the NRC issued an Order amending CP Nos. CPPR–122 and CPPR–123 by revising the latest dates for completion of construction to October 1, 2011, for BLN Unit 1, and October 1, 2014, for BLN Unit 2. On September 14, 2006, the NRC granted TVA its request to withdraw the CPs. Until the time of withdrawal, these facilities were in a deferred plant status as described in the Commission’s Policy Statement on Deferred Plants, as published in the Federal Register on October 14, 1987 (52 FR 38077). In a letter dated August 26, 2008, as supplemented on September 25, 2008, and on November 24, 2008, TVA has requested these CPs be reinstated. The NRC staff has prepared an ‘‘Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact,’’ which was published in the Federal Register on March 3, 2009 (74 FR 9308). Under Title 10, Section 51.32, ‘‘Finding of No Significant Impact,’’ of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 51.32), the Commission has determined that reinstating the CPs and placing the facility in a terminated plant status will not have a significant impact on the environment. For further details on this action, see the TVA application dated August 26, 2008, as supplemented on September 25, 2008, and on November 24, 2008, and the NRC staff’s letter and safety evaluation related to the requested reinstatement of the CPs dated March 9, 2009. Documents may be examined and/ or copied for a fee at the NRC’s Public Document Room located at One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), and they are accessible through the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Electronic Reading Room link at the NRC Web site, https://www.nrc.gov. Any person adversely affected by this Order may request a hearing on this Order within 60 days of its issuance, and the request for a hearing is limited to whether good cause exists for the reinstatement of the CPs. The NRC will consider extending the time to answer or to request a hearing where good cause is shown. A request for an extension of time must be directed to the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and must include a statement of good cause for the extension. Requirements for hearing requests are found in 10 CFR 2.309, E:\FR\FM\13MRN1.SGM 13MRN1
