2. If, after reviewing the record, an
individual believes that it is incorrect or
incomplete in any respect and wishes to
change, correct, or update the alleged
deficiency, or to explain any matter in
the record, the individual may initiate
challenge procedures. These procedures
include either direct application by the
individual challenging the record to the
agency (i.e., law enforcement agency)
that contributed the questioned
information, or direct challenge as to the
accuracy or completeness of any entry
on the criminal history record to the
Assistant Director, Federal Bureau of
Investigation Identification Division,
Washington, DC 20537–9700 (as set
forth in 28 CFR 16.30 through 16.34). In
the latter case, the FBI forwards the

the data and requests that agency to
verify or correct the challenged entry.
Upon receipt of an official
communication directly from the agency
that contributed the original
information, the FBI Identification
Division makes any changes necessary
in accordance with the information
supplied by that agency. The licensee
must provide at least 10 days for an
individual to initiate an action
challenging the results of a FBI CHRC
after the record is made available for
his/her review. The licensee may make
a final access determination based on
the criminal history record only upon
receipt of the FBI’s ultimate
confirmation or correction of the record.
Upon a final adverse determination on
access to an ISFSI, the licensee shall
provide the individual its documented
basis for denial. Access to an ISFSI shall
not be granted to an individual during
the review process.
G. Protection of Information
1. The licensee shall develop,
implement, and maintain a system for

CFR 2.206; issuance.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) has issued a
director’s decision with regard to a
petition dated April 29, 2012, filed by
Mr. Barry Quigley (the petitioner),
requesting that the NRC take action with
regard to Braidwood Station, Units 1
and 2, and Byron Station, Units 1 and
2. The petitioner’s requests and the
director’s decision are included in the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of
this document.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that the Director, Office of
Nuclear Reactor Regulation, has issued
a director’s decision (ADAMS Accession
No. ML14239A313), on a petition filed
by the petitioner on April 20, 2012
(ADAMS Accession No. ML12130A318).
The petitioner requested that the NRC
immediately shutdown Braidwood
Station, Units 1 and 2, and Byron
Station, Units 1 and 2, until all turbine
building (TB) high-energy line break
(HELB) concerns were identified and
those important to safety were
corrected.
As the basis of the request, the
petitioner asserted:
• An adequate supply of combustion air
for the emergency diesel generators (EDGs) is
threatened because the combustion air can be
diluted with steam. Although the combustion
air is drawn from an air shaft (not the TB),
it is also the same air shaft that supplies
ventilation for the EDG room. Under certain
conditions, the ventilation damper alignment
is such that steam that enters the EDG room
from the ventilation exhaust can back flow
into the inlet air shaft. From there it can be
drawn into the engine, potentially starving
the engine of air.
• The effects of high temperature in the
engineered safeguards features (ESF)
switchgear (SWGR) rooms on the protective
relaying setpoints have not been evaluated.
The concern is that high temperatures could
alter the setpoints such that protective
actions occur under normal loading
conditions.
• The current method of analysis for TB
HELB uses a ‘‘lumped volume’’ approach
wherein the mass and energy (M&E) of the
ruptured line mixes instantly with the entire
volume before flowing into the areas of
concern. Because this substantially reduces
the energy flow, it does not always give
conservative results. For example, the
petitioner’s preliminary assessment using the

asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
subdivided volume feature in GOTHIC
showed that the structural limits on the block
wall between the ESF SWGR rooms would be
substantially exceeded.
• There has been no structured and
detailed review of the licensing requirements
for HELB.
On May 14, 2012, the petitioner and
the licensee met with the NRC’s Petition
Review Board. The meeting provided
the petitioner and the licensee an
opportunity to provide additional
information and to clarify issues cited in
the petition. On November 15, 2012, the
petitioner and the licensee again met
with the NRC’s Petition Review Board at
the request of the Petition Review
Board. The transcripts of these meetings
were treated as supplements to the
petition and are available in the
ADAMS (Accession Nos. ML
12145A633 and ML 12347A354,
respectively).
The NRC sent a copy of the proposed
director’s decision to the petitioner and
the licensee for comment on June 18,
2014. The petitioner and the licensee
were asked to provide comments within
30 days on any part of the proposed
director’s decision that was considered
to be erroneous or any issues in the
petition that were not addressed. The
staff did not receive any comments on
the proposed director’s decision.
The Director of Nuclear Reactor
Regulation has determined that the
request, to require immediate shutdown
of Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2,
and Byron Station, Units 1 and 2, until
all turbine building (TB) high-energy
line break (HELB) concerns were
identified and those important to safety
were corrected be denied. The Director
of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has
determined to partially grant the
petition in that the licensing basis
requirements for high energy line break
were reviewed during the review of the
application for the Braidwood/Byron
measurement uncertainty recapture
uprate, which was completed in the
February 7, 2014 (ADAMS accession
No. ML13281A000). The reasons for this
decision are explained in the director’s
decision NRC–2012–0203 pursuant to
Section 2.206 of Title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (10 CFR) of the
Commission’s regulations.
The NRC will file a copy of the
director’s decision with the Secretary of
the Commission for the Commission’s
review in accordance with 10 CFR
2.206. As provided 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 22nd
day of December, 2014.

RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
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: Evidence for Application of
Overall Minimum: OMB 3220–0083.
Under section 3(f)(3) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), the total monthly
benefits payable to a railroad employee
and his/her family are guaranteed to be
no less than the amount which would
be payable if the employee’s railroad
service had been covered by the Social
Security Act. This is referred to as the
Social Security Overall Minimum
Guarantee, which is prescribed in 20
CFR 229. To administer this provision,
the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB)
requires information about a retired
employee’s spouse and child(ren) who
would not be eligible for benefits under
the RRA but would be eligible for
benefits under the Social Security Act if
the employee’s railroad service had
been covered by that Act. The RRB
obtains the required information by the
use of Forms G–319, Statement
Regarding Family and Earnings for
Special Guaranty Computation, and G–
320, Student Questionnaire for Special
Guaranty Computation. One response is
required of each respondent.
Completion is required to obtain or
retain benefits. The RRB proposes nonburden impacting editorial changes to
Forms G–319 and G–320.
