Revision of Agency Information Collection Activity Under OMB Review: Secure Flight Program, 72433-72434 [2011-30296]

Download as PDF sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 226 / Wednesday, November 23, 2011 / Notices (HSEEP). Further, the REP Program Manual provides additional guidance on the new or revised evaluation criteria proposed in Supplement 4 and the NRC’s rulemaking. Because contemporary national preparedness terms and concepts are evolving, additional future revisions and modifications may be necessary to the REP Program Manual. The REP Program Manual is divided into four main sections and includes additional appendices. Part I serves as an introduction and overview of the REP Program. It provides the history and establishment of the REP Program, a description of the review process, and the technical basis for the program. This section intends to provide a base knowledge about the program as well as a description of how the current program operates through a synopsis of the program’s evolution since its inception. Part II contains the NUREG–0654 planning standards and evaluation criteria, along with expansive explanations and guidance on materials to be included in ORO plans/ procedures. This is a new section of the manual that clarifies but does not exceed the regulation nor does it replace 44 CFR part 350 or NUREG–0654 and is solely meant to provide guidance. Part III discusses the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) process and provides specific guidance unique to the design, development, conduct, evaluation, and improvement planning associated with REP exercise activities. This guidance is intended for use by REP controllers, evaluators, contractors, and any Federal, State, Tribal, or local agencies responsible for planning, preparing, and executing exercises that are used to validate REP Program requirements. This section provides licensee partners with guidelines regarding how the Federal government will coordinate exercise activities in conjunction with the REP Program. Part IV is comprised of supporting reference documentation, where specific information is found in support of the program. It includes information on potassium iodide and disaster initiated reviews, scenario reviews, plan reviews, the Annual Letter of Certification (ALC), and other topics. The appendices include acronyms, a glossary, historical REP references (active and retired), plant site identifier numbers and the Target Capabilities List. The REP Program Manual incorporates and updates previouslyissued FEMA Guidance Memoranda (GMs), policy memoranda, and some VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:03 Nov 22, 2011 Jkt 226001 FEMA–REP series documents. The REP Program Manual effectively retires these documents from use as independent resources. Guidance on specific technical areas and other REP Program documents that FEMA was unable to incorporate have been retained as ‘‘technical references.’’ The remaining stand-alone FEMA–REP series documents and these technical references are listed in Appendix C and cited in the applicable parts of this proposed REP Program Manual. The retired guidance documents are listed in Appendix D as a historical resource. To the greatest extent possible, FEMA will issue all future REP Program guidance as amendments to the applicable parts of the REP Program Manual. Authorities: DHS/FEMA issues the new REP Program Manual, and FEMA and the NRC jointly issue Supplement 4 to NUREG– 0654 under the authority of: Reorganization Plan No. 3 of 1978; Presidential Directive of Dec. 7, 1979; Executive Order 12148 ‘‘Federal Emergency Management’’; Section 201 of the Disaster Relief Act of 1974, 42 U.S.C. 5131, as amended by the Robert T.
