SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that the Director, of NRR,
has issued a director’s decision with
regard to a petition dated December 5,
2009, filed by Thomas Saporito
(ADAMS Accession No. ML093430702).
The petition was supplemented on
January 7, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No.
ML100200966) and consolidated with
an additional August 6, 2010, petition
(ADAMS Accession No. ML102220032).
The petition concerns the operation of
the Crystal River Nuclear Generating
Plant, Unit 3 (CR–3).
In the December 5, 2009, petition, the
petitioner raised concerns about the
delamination (i.e., the separation of the
different layers) of the CR–3
containment that occurred during the
fall 2009 refueling outage. The
petitioner considers this condition to be
potentially unsafe and to be in violation
of Federal regulations. In the petition, a
number of references to the condition of
the CR–3 containment were cited that
the petitioner believes prohibit
operation of the facility.
The petition requested that CR–3
perform the following actions, as
summarized below:
1. Physically remove the outer 25
centimeters (10 inches) of concrete
surrounding the CR–3 containment
building.
2. Test samples of the concrete
removed from the CR–3 containment
building for composition and compare
the test results to a sample of concrete
from a similarly designed facility.
3. Keep the CR–3 in cold shutdown
mode until such time as the licensee can
demonstrate full compliance with its
NRC operating license for CR–3 within
the safety margins delineated in the
licensee’s final safety analysis report
(FSAR) and within the CR–3 sitespecific technical specifications.
4. Provide the public with an
opportunity to intervene at a public
hearing before the NRC’s Atomic Safety
and Licensing Board to challenge any
VerDate Mar<15>2010
18:18 May 14, 2014
Jkt 232001
certification made by the licensee to the
NRC that it has reestablished full
regulatory compliance.
The petition of December 5, 2009,
provided the following basis for CR–3
remaining in cold shutdown, as
summarized below:
1. The licensee has not determined
the root cause of the separation.
2. No method of non-destructive or
destructive testing is sufficient to satisfy
the FSAR requirements.
3. The removal of the top 10 inches
of concrete of the entire containment
outer wall would allow for proper visual
inspection.
4. The removal of the top 10 inches
of concrete of the entire containment
outer wall would ensure the best
adhesion of the new concrete pour to
the existing inner wall.
5. The licensee’s FSAR requires that
the CR–3 containment building be
comprised of a monolithic concrete
perimeter wall. The only way the
licensee can fully achieve compliance
with its FSAR is to remove 10 inches of
concrete from the entire outer wall for
proper visual inspect and repair
activities.
On January 7, 2010, the petitioner
participated in a teleconference with the
staff’s petition review board. The
meeting gave the petitioner an
opportunity to provide additional
information and to clarify issues raised
in the petition. The information
provided during this teleconference was
considered a supplement to the
December 9, 2009, petition.
On August 6, 2010, the petitioner sent
in an additional petition related to the
original December 5, 2009, petition;
however, it was not accepted for review
under Section 2.206 of Title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR)
process. By letter dated September 3,
2010 (ADAMS Accession No.
ML102290577), the NRC informed the
petitioner that the August 6, 2010,
petition would be considered a
supplement to the December 5, 2009,
petition.
The NRC sent a copy of the proposed
director’s decision to the petitioner and
to Duke Energy Florida, Inc., for
comment on January 24, 2014. The staff
did not receive any comments on the
proposed director’s decision.
The Director of NRR has determined
that the request, to require CR–3 to
remain in cold shutdown mode, is moot
and no action will be taken. The reasons
for this decision are explained in the
director’s decision 14–03, pursuant to
10 CFR 2.206, the complete text of
which is available in ADAMS under
Accession No. ML14097A185.
PO 00000
Frm 00104
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
The NRC will take no action on the
request to require CR–3 to remain in
cold shutdown because on February 20,
2013 (ADAMS Accession No.
ML13056A005), the licensee provided
the certification required by 10 CFR
50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii) to the NRC staff
that CR–3 had permanently ceased
power operations and that all fuel had
been permanently removed from the
reactor vessel. Upon docketing of these
two certifications, the licensee’s 10 CFR
Part 50 license no longer authorized
operation of the CR–3 reactor or
emplacement or retention of fuel into
the reactor vessel. Accordingly, the
licensee is prohibited by regulation from
restarting CR–3 or loading fuel into the
reactor vessel. Because the licensee is
no longer authorized to operate the
reactor, CR–3 may not enter a mode of
operation that requires the containment
to be in an operable condition.
A copy of the director’s decision will
be filed with the Secretary of the
Commission for the Commission’s
review in accordance with 10 CFR 2.206
of the Commission’s regulations. As
provided for by this regulation, the
director’s decision will constitute the
final action of the Commission 25 days
after the date of the decision, unless the
Commission, on its own motion,
institutes a review of the director’s
decision in that time.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 6th day
of May 2014.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Deputy Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor
Regulation.

RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
Summary: In accordance with the
requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
which provides opportunity for public
comment on new or revised data
collections, the Railroad Retirement
Board (RRB) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed data collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed information collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)

ways to minimize the burden related to
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and purpose of information
collection: Supplemental Information on
Accident and Insurance; OMB 3220–
0036.
Under Section 12(o) of the Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA),
the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) is
entitled to reimbursement of the
sickness benefits paid to a railroad
employee if the employee receives a
sum or damages for the same infirmity
for which the benefits are paid. Section
2(f) of the RUIA requires employers to
reimburse the RRB for days in which
salary, wages, pay for time lost or other
remuneration is later determined to be
payable. Reimbursements under section
2(f) generally result from the award of
pay for time lost or the payment of
guaranteed wages. The RUIA prescribes
that the amount of benefits paid be
deducted and held by the employer in
a special fund for reimbursement to the
RRB.
The RRB currently utilizes Forms SI–
1c, Supplemental Information on
Accident and Insurance; SI–5, Report of
Payments to Employee Claiming
Sickness Benefits Under the RUIA; ID–
3s, Request for Lien Information—
Report of Settlement; ID–3s–1, Lien
Information Under Section 12(o) of the
RUIA; ID–3u, Request for Section 2(f)
Information; ID–30k, Notice to Request
Supplemental Information on Injury or
Illness; and ID–30k–1, Notice to Request
Supplemental Information on Injury or
Illness; to obtain the necessary
information from claimants and railroad
employers. Completion is required to
obtain benefits. One response is
requested of each respondent. The RRB
proposes to add Internet versions of
Forms ID–3s, and ID–3u. There are no
changes proposed to the other forms in
the collection.

Rule 32a–4, OMB Control No. 3235–0530,
SEC File No. 270–473.
Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 350l et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
requests for extension of the previously
approved collections of information
discussed below.
Section 32(a)(2) of the Investment
Company Act (15 U.S.C. 80a–31(a)(2))
requires that shareholders of a registered
investment management or face-amount
certificate company (collectively,
‘‘funds’’) ratify or reject the selection of
the fund’s independent public
accountant. Rule 32a–4 (17 CFR
270.32a–4) exempts funds from this
requirement if (i) the fund’s board of
directors establishes an audit committee
composed solely of independent
directors with responsibility for
overseeing the fund’s accounting and
auditing processes,1 (ii) the fund’s board
of directors adopts an audit committee
charter setting forth the committee’s
structure, duties, powers and methods
of operation, or sets forth such
provisions in the fund’s charter or
bylaws,2 and (iii) the fund maintains
and preserves permanently in an easily
accessible place a copy of the audit
committee charter, and any
modifications to the charter.3
Each fund that chooses to rely on rule
32a–4 incurs two collection of
information burdens. The first, related
to the board of directors’ adoption of the
audit committee charter, occurs once,
when the committee is established. The
second, related to the fund’s
maintenance and preservation of a copy
of the charter in an easily accessible
place, is an ongoing annual burden. The
information collection requirement in
rule 32a–4 enables the Commission to
monitor the duties and responsibilities
of an independent audit committee
formed by a fund relying on the rule.
Commission staff estimates that on
average the board of directors takes 15
minutes to adopt the audit committee
charter. Commission staff has estimated
that with an average of 8 directors on
