NARA is giving public notice
that the agency proposes to request
extension of two currently approved
information collections. The first
information collection is used when
former Federal civilian employees and
other authorized individuals request
information from or copies of
documents in Official Personnel Folders
or Employee Medical Folders from the
National Personnel Records Center
(NPRC) of the National Archives and
Records Administration (NARA). The
second information collection is NA
Form 6045, Volunteer Service
Application, used by individuals who
wish to volunteer at the National
Archives Building, the National
Archives at College Park, regional
records services facilities, and
Presidential Libraries. The public is
invited to comment on the proposed
information collection pursuant to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: Written comments must be
received on or before October 22, 2012
to be assured of consideration.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(Pub. L. 104–13), NARA invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to comment on proposed
information collections. The comments
and suggestions should address one or
more of the following points: (a)
Whether the proposed information
collections are necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of NARA;
(b) the accuracy of NARA’s estimate of
the burden of the proposed information
collections; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
information technology; and (e) whether
small businesses are affected by these
collections. The comments that are
submitted will be summarized and
included in the NARA request for Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
approval. All comments will become a
matter of public record. In this notice,
NARA is soliciting comments
concerning the following information
collection:

evidence. Volunteers assist in outreach
and public programs and provide
technical and research support for
administrative, archival, library, and
curatorial staff. NARA uses a standard
way to recruit volunteers and assess the
qualifications of potential volunteers.
The NA Form 6045, Volunteer Service

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Introduction
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is considering
PO 00000
Frm 00077
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
50533
issuance of an exemption from § 50.46
of Title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Acceptance
criteria for emergency core cooling
systems for light-water nuclear power
reactors,’’ and Appendix K to 10 CFR
Part 50, ‘‘ECCS [emergency core cooling
system] Evaluation Models,’’ to allow
the use of Optimized ZIRLOTM fuel rod
cladding in future core reload
applications for Millstone Power
Station, Unit 3 (MPS3), for Renewed
Facility Operating License No. NPF–49
Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc.
(DNC or the licensee), for operation of
MPS3 located in the town of Waterford,
CT. Therefore, as required by 10 CFR
51.21, the NRC performed an
environmental assessment. Based on the
results of the environmental assessment,
the NRC is issuing a finding of no
significant impact.
II. Environmental Assessment
Identification of the Proposed Action
The proposed action would add
Optimized ZIRLOTM as an acceptable
fuel rod cladding material. The
proposed action is in accordance with
the licensee’s application dated
November 17, 2011, under ADAMS
Accession No. ML11329A003.
The Need for the Proposed Action
The proposed action is needed
because the regulation in 10 CFR 50.46
contains acceptance criteria for the
ECCS for reactors that have fuel rods
fabricated either with Zircaloy or
ZIRLOTM. Appendix K to 10 CFR Part
50, paragraph I.A.5, requires the BakerJust equation to be used to predict the
rates of energy release, hydrogen
concentration, and cladding oxidation
for the metal-water reaction. The BakerJust equation assumed the use of a
zirconium alloy different than
Optimized ZIRLOTM; therefore, an
exemption is required.
Environmental Impacts of the Proposed
Action
The NRC has completed its evaluation
of the proposed action and concludes
that the exemption does not present
undue risk to public health and safety,
and is consistent with common defense
and security.
The details of the staff’s safety
evaluation will be provided in the
license amendment that will be issued
as part of the letter to the licensee
approving the license amendment to the
regulation.
The proposed action will not
significantly increase the probability or
consequences of accidents. No changes
are being made in the types of effluents
