NASA International Space Station Advisory Committee; Meeting, 47687-47688 [2014-19236]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 157 / Thursday, August 14, 2014 / Notices the Compact, the GoG has met each of these milestones, as described below. • Approval of the Gas Sector Action Plan. An acceptable short-term Gas Sector Action Plan was submitted to MCC by the Minister of Energy and Petroleum. The GoG, with the support of the World Bank, is currently drafting a comprehensive long-term gas sector master plan, which will be complete by the end of 2014. Approval of the terms of that gas sector master plan by MCC and its adoption by the GoG are conditions to entry into force of the Compact. • Finalize the Jubilee gas supply agreement. The Ghana National Gas Company (‘‘GNGC’’) and Jubilee Partners have signed the agreement related to infrastructure needed for gas supply from the Jubilee gas fields. This agreement facilitates the completion of infrastructure by GNGC that complements private sector infrastructure and is a necessary predicate to commercial agreements to be signed in the future. • Agree to PSP option for ECG and NEDCo. The details of the agreement were discussed during Compact negotiations and are memorialized in the compact document. • Submit an action plan to substantially reduce GoG arrears to ECG and implement plan to move Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies to regular and current payment of utility bills. The Minister of Finance provided a letter to MCC on June 30, 2014 detailing the total amount of arrears owed to ECG by the GoG and outlining a projected path to repayment. • Continue quarterly tariff adjustments. Ghana’s utility regulator, the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission, announced a quarterly tariff adjustment on June 27, 2014. The new tariff took effect on July 1, 2014. These were not easy milestones to meet, and they are instrumental to achieving the deep and lasting change MCC and the GoG want to achieve in the energy sector through the Compact. MCC is confident that the GoG’s strong commitment to reform will continue as the Program moves forward. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES [FR Doc. 2014–19196 Filed 8–13–14; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 9211–03–P VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:42 Aug 13, 2014 Jkt 232001 NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION [Notice 14–080] NASA Advisory Council; Human Exploration Operations Committee; Research Subcommittee; Meeting National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Introduction The NRC is issuing a license amendment to Material License No. 42– 23539–01AF, issued to the Department of the Air Force (the licensee), to authorize release of Radioactive Waste Site RW–06 at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, for unrestricted use, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) in support of this amendment in accordance with the requirements of Part 51 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Based on the EA, the NRC has concluded that a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) is appropriate. The license amendment will be issued following the publication of this Notice. PO 00000 Frm 00077 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 II. EA Summary The purpose of the proposed license amendment is to authorize the release of the licensee’s Radioactive Waste Site RW–06 for unrestricted use and to allow the licensee to remove this site from its license. The licensee was previously authorized by the NRC to possess radioactive materials at the RW–06 site. These radioactive materials include buried wastes from previous laboratory operations. The licensee remediated the site in 2009. On November 3, 2011, the licensee requested that NRC release the site for unrestricted use. In response, the NRC proceeded to confirm if the licensee conducted surveys of the facility and provided sufficient information to the NRC to demonstrate that the site meets the license termination criteria in Subpart E of Part 20 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) for unrestricted release. The NRC conducted an environmental assessment of this decommissioning project as required by 10 CFR 51.21. The staff has prepared this EA and associated Technical Evaluation Report in support of the proposed license amendment. In summary, the NRC staff concluded that the licensee designed and implemented the final status survey plan using the guidance provided in NUREG–1575, ‘‘Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Site Investigation Manual (MARSSIM).’’ The NRC staff confirmed that the licensee implemented the final status survey as stipulated in the survey plan, and the licensee submitted a final status survey report to the NRC as required by 10 CFR 30.36(j). The results of the amended final status survey report indicate that Radioactive Waste Site RW–06 meets the derived concentration guideline level criteria specified in MARSSIM and NUREG– 1757, ‘‘Consolidated Decommissioning Guidance,’’ Volume 1. The NRC staff conducted a confirmatory survey during March 2011, confirming that the licensee had effectively remediated the site. Section 20.1402 states that a site will be considered acceptable for unrestricted use if the residual radioactivity that is distinguishable from background radiation results in a total effective dose equivalent to an average member of the critical group that does not exceed 25 millirems (0.25 milliSieverts) per year. The licensee’s final status survey report documents that Radioactive Waste Site RW–06 meets the criteria established in 10 CFR 20.1402. The NRC has reviewed and approved the final status survey report, and the NRC has conducted a E:\FR\FM\14AUN1.SGM 14AUN1
