Sunshine Act; Notice of Public Meeting, 21931 [2011-9537]

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 75 / Tuesday, April 19, 2011 / Notices
staff finds that the proposed action
would not have disproportionately high
and adverse human health and
environmental effects on minority and
low-income populations residing in the
vicinity of NRCR.
Environmental Impacts of the
Alternatives to the Proposed Action
As an alternative to license renewal,
the NRC staff considered denying the
proposed action. If the NRC denied the
application for license renewal, reactor
operations would cease and
decommissioning would be required.
The NRC notes that, even with a
renewed license, the NRCR will
eventually be decommissioned, at
which time the environmental effects of
decommissioning would occur.
Decommissioning would be conducted
in accordance with an NRC-approved
decommissioning plan which would
require a separate environmental review
under 10 CFR 51.21. Cessation of reactor
operations would reduce or eliminate
radioactive effluents and emissions.
However, as previously discussed in
this environmental assessment,
radioactive effluents and emissions from
reactor operations constitute a small
fraction of the applicable regulatory
limits. Therefore, the environmental
impacts of license renewal and the
denial of the application for license
renewal would be similar. In addition,
denying the application for license
renewal would eliminate the benefits of
teaching opportunities, research, and
services provided by the NRCR.
Alternative Use of Resources
The proposed action does not involve
the use of any different resources or
significant quantities of resources
beyond those previously considered in
the issuance of Amendment No. 10 to
Facility Operating License No. R–76 for
the Washington State University
Nuclear Research Center Reactor dated
August 11, 1982, which renewed the
Facility Operating License for a period
of 20 years.

Agencies and Persons Consulted
In accordance with the agency’s stated
policy, the staff consulted with the State
Historic Preservation Officer between
May 13 and October 21, 2010, and the
State Liaison Officer between May 13
and December 2, 2010, regarding the
environmental impact of the proposed
action. The consultation involved a
thorough explanation of the
environmental review, the details of this
environmental assessment, and the
NRC’s findings. The State officials
stated that they understood the NRC

review and had no comments regarding
the proposed action.
III. Finding of No Significant Impact
On the basis of the environmental
assessment, the NRC staff concludes
that the proposed action will not have
a significant effect on the quality of the
human environment. Accordingly, the
NRC staff has determined not to prepare
an environmental impact statement for
the proposed action.
For further details with respect to the
proposed action, see the licensee’s
application dated June 24, 2002

Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act of 2010 1 (the ‘‘Act’’) provides that
Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act 2 does not apply to any audit report
prepared for an issuer that is neither an
accelerated filer nor a large accelerated
filer as defined in Rule 12b–2 3 under
the Securities Exchange Act.4 Notice is
hereby given that, pursuant to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget the
request for approval of extension of the
previously approved collection of
information discussed below.
In a separate release,5 the Commission
amended its rules in light of the Act,
which amends Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Commission
had previously estimated the burden of
complying with Section 404(b) of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act assuming that all
filers of Forms 10–K and 20–F would
file an auditor’s attestation report. The
filers that were included in the estimate
but are no longer subject to the 404
requirement are sometimes referred to
as ‘‘non-accelerated filers.’’
Form 10–K sets forth the disclosure
requirements for annual reports filed by
issuers under the Securities Exchange
Act. Form 20–F sets forth the disclosure
requirements for annual reports and
registration statements filed by foreign
private issuers under the Securities
Exchange Act, as well as many of the
