Noble Americas Gas & Power Corp., LNG Development Company, LLC, LNG Development Company, LLC (d/b/a Oregon LNG); Notice of Orders Granting Authority To Import and Export Natural Gas and Liquefied Natural Gas During May 2012, 38790-38791 [2012-16032]

Download as PDF 38790 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 126 / Friday, June 29, 2012 / Notices which DOE uses to determine whether or not certain waste from the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel is incidental to reprocessing and therefore is not HLW and can be managed as LLW. This process, in relevant part, requires demonstrating that: (1) Key radionuclides have been removed to the maximum extent that is technically and economically practical; (2) The waste will be managed to meet safety requirements comparable to the performance objectives set out in 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 61, subpart C, Performance Objectives; and (3) The waste will be managed, pursuant to DOE’s authority under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and in accordance with the provisions of Chapter IV of DOE Manual 435.1–1, provided the waste will be incorporated in a solid physical form at a concentration that does not exceed the applicable concentration limits for Class C LLW as set out in 10 CFR 61.55, Waste Classification. The draft waste-incidental-toreprocessing evaluation summarizes DOE’s analysis and shows that the vessels: (1) Have had key radionuclides removed to the maximum extent technically and economically practical; (2) Will be managed to meet safety requirements comparable to the NRC performance objectives at 10 CFR part 61, subpart C; and (3) Will be in a solid physical form that does not exceed concentration limits for Class C LLW and will be managed and disposed of pursuant to DOE’s authority under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and in accordance with applicable provisions of Chapter IV of DOE Manual 435.1–1. Accordingly, the draft evaluation demonstrates using the waste- incidental-to-reprocessing evaluation process that the West Valley vessel waste packages may be managed and disposed of as LLW. The vessel waste packages will meet the applicable waste acceptance criteria for the selected offsite LLW disposal facility, either the NNSS Area 5 Radioactive Waste Management Site or the Waste Control Specialists Federal Facility Waste Disposal Facility in Texas. The vessel waste packages have been approved for disposal by the NNSS in case a final decision is made to send the waste package to that site for disposal. DOE is consulting with the NRC before finalizing this evaluation. Although not required by DOE Manual 435.1–1, DOE is making the draft evaluation available for public and state review and comment during the NRC consultative review period. DOE plans to issue a final determination as to whether the vessels are HLW or can be managed and disposed of as LLW following review and consultation with the NRC and consideration of public and state comments. DOE’s decision on the disposal site to be used is not within the scope of this draft evaluation. Any DOE decision on the facility to which the vessel waste packages would be sent would be made after the final DOE evaluation and determination, following consideration of NRC and public comments on this draft evaluation, and after DOE confers with appropriate State officials in the state where the waste packages may be disposed.

ACTION: Notice and request for OMB review and comment. mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: The Department of Energy (DOE) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance, a proposal for collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The proposed collection will enable a userbased evaluation of submitted entries to the Bright Tomorrow Lighting Competition (L Prize®) competition. The L Prize competition was authorized to encourage development and deployment of highly energy efficient solid-state lighting products. The proposed collection will assist in evaluating the entries in a real-world environment to insure that winning products do not exhibit undesirable or poor qualities that are not identified from formal laboratory testing by the DOE. These undesirable attributes could be a hindrance to sales of the winning product and could negatively impact the energy reduction potential of the competition. Additionally, the DOE wishes to gauge program success by periodically obtaining quantitative data about the effectiveness of the promotions and campaigns which are directly tied to L Prize winners. The quantitative data will be a survey asking five qualitative questions about the occupant’s overall satisfaction of the lights. The brief assessments will be collected by the site’s partner sponsor and returned, along with the entrant lamps, to DOE at the conclusion of the field assessment. DATES: Comments regarding this collection must be received on or before July 30, 2012. If you anticipate that you will be submitting comments, but find it difficult to do so within the period of time allowed by this notice, please advise the DOE Desk Officer at OMB of your intention to make a submission as soon as possible. The Desk Officer may be telephoned at 202–395–4650. ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to the DOE Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:52 Jun 28, 2012 Jkt 226001 Office of Management and Budget, New Executive Office Building, Room 10102, 735 17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20503.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This information collection request contains: (1) OMB No. New; (2) Information Collection Request Title: Bright Tomorrow Lighting Competition (L Prize®): Field Assessment and Post Prize Monitoring; (3) Type of Request: New collection; (4) Purpose: The Bright Tomorrow Lighting Competition was authorized in the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA), Subtitle E, Section 655, to encourage development and deployment of highly energy efficient solid-state lighting (SSL) products to replace several of the most common lighting products currently used in the United States. Field assessments contribute to the evaluation of L Prize entries in a wide range of lighting applications. The field assessments evaluate energy use of the installed product, the lighting system performance compared to the existing technology, and user feedback. The objective of field testing is to obtain installation data and user acceptance, in order to evaluate the product and determine its potential to be declared a winner. Additionally, DOE plans to monitor the impact of the L Prize competition through post-prize monitoring of incentive programs, educational campaigns, and retail promotions. This monitoring will include measuring the number of customers reached, bulbs sold, energy savings, and other tangible benefits.; (5) Annual Estimated Number of Respondents: 526; (6) Annual Estimated Number of Total Responses: 526; (7) Annual Estimated Number of Burden Hours: 115; (8) Response Obligation: Voluntary.
