ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection and solicitation of public comment. The NRC has recently submitted to OMB for review the following proposal for the collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). The NRC hereby informs potential respondents that an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and that a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The NRC published a Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period on this information collection on June 3, 2009. cprice-sewell on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:23 Sep 10, 2009 Jkt 217001 1.

WBN2 is located in Rhea County, Tennessee, on the Tennessee River. The application for the operating license, dated June 30, 1976, was submitted pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:23 Sep 10, 2009 Jkt 217001 CFR) Part 50. An updated operating license was submitted on March 4, 2009. The WBN Unit 2 Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement for the Completion and Operation of WBN Unit 2 (June 2007) (FSEIS) was submitted to the U.S Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on February 15, 2008 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession Number ML080510469). The proposed action in response to the updated application is the issuance of an operating license that would authorize TVA to possess, use, and operate a second lightwater nuclear reactor (the facility), Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Unit 2, located on the applicant’s site in Rhea County, Tennessee. The unit would operate at a steady-state power level of 3,411 megawatts thermal. Alternatives to the proposed action include the denial of an operating license or issuance of a license for a different power level. The purpose of this notice is to inform the public that a supplement to the final environmental statement (FES) related to the review of the license application will be prepared in accordance with 10 CFR 51.92 and to provide the public an opportunity to participate in the environmental scoping process, as defined in 10 CFR 51.29. In addition, as outlined in 36 CFR 800.8, ‘‘Coordination With the National Environmental Policy Act,’’ the NRC plans to coordinate compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act in meeting the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). TVA submitted the FSEIS on February 15, 2008, as part of the updated application. The FSEIS is publicly available at the NRC Public Document Room (PDR), located at One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland, 20852, or from the NRC’s ADAMS. The ADAMS Public Electronic Reading Room is accessible at https:// adamswebsearch.nrc.gov/dologin.htm. The ADAMS Accession Number for the FSEIS is ML080510469. In addition, TVA provided supplemental information to the FSEIS in two additional submittals: Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN)—Unit 2—Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement—[response to] Request for Additional Information dated July 2, 2008 (ML081850460), and Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Unit 2—Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement—Severe Accident Management Alternatives dated January 27, 2009 (ML090360706). Persons who do not have access to ADAMS, or who PO 00000 Frm 00067 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 46799 encounter problems in accessing the documents located in ADAMS, should contact the NRC’s PDR reference staff by telephone at 1–800–397–4209, or 301– 415–4737, or by e-mail at pdr.resource@nrc.gov. The FSEIS may also be viewed on the Internet at https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/plantspecific-items/watts-bar/keycorrespondence.html. This notice advises the public that the NRC intends to gather the information necessary to prepare a supplement to the WBN2 Final Environmental Statement. The matters to be addressed in the supplement include evaluation of new and significant circumstances or information, relevant to environmental concerns, that developed after the 1978 FES (ADAMS Accession Number ML082560457). This notice is being published in accordance with NEPA and the NRC’s regulations found in 10 CFR Part 51. The NRC will first conduct a scoping process for the supplement to the FES and, as soon as practicable thereafter, will prepare a draft supplement to the FES for public comment. Participation in the scoping process by members of the public and local, State, Tribal, and Federal government agencies is encouraged. The scoping process for the supplement to the FES as described in 40 CFR 51.29(a)(1)–(8) will be used to accomplish the following: 1. Define the proposed action which is to be the subject of the supplement, using the provision of 10 CFR 1502.4. 2. Determine the scope of the supplement and identify the significant issues to be analyzed in depth. 3. Identify and eliminate from detailed study those issues that are peripheral or that are not significant. 4. Identify any environmental assessments and ElSs that are being, or will be, prepared which are related to, but are not part of, the scope of the supplement. 5. Identify other environmental review and consultation requirements related to the proposed action so that other required analyses may be prepared concurrently and integrated with the supplement. 6. Indicate the relationship between the timing of the preparation of the environmental analyses and the Commission’s tentative planning and decision-making schedule. 7. Identify any cooperating agencies and, as appropriate, allocate assignments for preparation and schedules for completing the supplement to the FES. 8. Describe how the supplement to the FES will be prepared, including any contractor assistance to be used. E:\FR\FM\11SEN1.SGM 11SEN1
