Section 188 of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act of 1972, as established under 29 CFR part 75, authorizes the United States Department of Agriculture to make or guarantee loans or grants to finance industrial and business activities in rural areas. The Secretary of Labor must review the application for financial assistance for the purpose of certifying to the Secretary of Agriculture that the assistance is not calculated, or likely, to result in: (a) A transfer of any employment or business activity from one area to another by the loan applicant’s business operation; or, (b) An increase in the production of goods, materials, services, or facilities in an area where there is not sufficient demand to employ the efficient capacity of existing competitive enterprises unless the financial assistance will not have an adverse impact on existing competitive enterprises in the area. The Employment and Training Administration within the Department of Labor is responsible for the review and certification process. Comments should address the two bases for certification and, if possible, provide data to assist in the analysis of these issues.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Introduction The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering issuance of a license amendment to Materials License No. 06–00217–06 issued to ABB Inc. (the Licensee), to authorize remediation and decommissioning of several Formally Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP) areas of its CE Windsor Site (the Facility) in Windsor, Connecticut. The clean-up work for the FUSRAP areas will be performed under a proposed revision to the Licensee’s previously approved Decommissioning Plan (DP), under which decommissioning work has been performed at the Facility’s non-FUSRAP areas. Authorization for the Licensee to conduct decommissioning activities for PO 00000 Frm 00102 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 the FUSRAP areas—which ordinarily would be done by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)—was established between NRC and USACE by agreement dated August 15, 2007. The Licensee requested the action to initiate the FUSRAP area decommissioning activities by a filing dated December 31, 2008. Revision I to the DP is currently under technical review by the NRC staff. If the NRC approves the revised DP, the approval will be documented in an amendment to NRC License No. 06– 00217–06. However, before approving the proposed amendment, the NRC will need to make the safety findings required by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and NRC’s regulations. These findings will be documented in a Safety Evaluation Report. The NRC will separately evaluate the environmental aspects of the proposed action, pursuant to its 10 CFR part 51 requirements. The Licensee’s revised DP continues to propose eventual release of the Facility for unrestricted use. This would occur following completion of all decommissioning activities and verification by the NRC that the radiological criteria for license termination have been met. II. Opportunity to Request a Hearing The NRC hereby provides notice that this is a proceeding on the Licensee’s application dated December 31, 2008. In accordance with the general requirements in subpart C of 10 CFR part 2, as amended on January 14, 2004 (69 FR 2182), any person whose interest may be affected by this proceeding and who desires to participate as a party must file a request for a hearing and a specification of the contentions which the person seeks to have litigated in the hearing. A request for hearing or a petition for leave to intervene must be filed in accordance with the NRC E-Filing rule, which the NRC promulgated on August 28, 2007 (72 FR 49139). The E-Filing process requires participants to submit and serve documents over the Internet or in some cases to mail copies on electronic storage media. Participants may not submit paper copies of their filings unless they seek a waiver in accordance with the procedures described below. To comply with the procedural requirements of E–Filing, at least ten (10) days prior to the filing deadline, the petitioner/requestor must contact the Office of the Secretary by e-mail at HEARINGDOCKET@NRC.GOV, or by calling (301) 415–1677, to request (1) A digital ID certificate, which allows the participant (or its counsel or E:\FR\FM\08MYN1.SGM 08MYN1
