[FR Doc. 2015–00976 Filed 1–21–15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 7535–01–P NATIONAL CREDIT UNION ADMINISTRATION Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for Office of Management and Budget Review; Comment Request; for New Collection Involuntary Liquidation Proof of Claim Form and Instructions National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). ACTION: Request for comment. AGENCY: NCUA is announcing that a proposed collection of information has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (Pub. L. 104–13, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). The purpose of this notice is to allow for 30 days of public comment. NCUA is appointed the liquidating agent of a credit union when a credit union is placed into involuntary liquidation. NCUA is required to notify creditors of the liquidated credit union that they must submit claims, together with proof, to the liquidating agent. This is a onetime requirement to which creditors will respond by submitting the proposed Proof of Claim form. DATES: Comments will be accepted until February 23, 2015. ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments to: (i) Desk Officer for the National Credit Union Administration, 3133–NEW, U.S. Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street NW., #10102, Washington, DC 20503, or by email to: oirasubmission@ omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Jessica Khouri by mail at the National Credit Union tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:09 Jan 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 Administration, 1775 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314–3428, by fax at Fax No. 703–837–2861, or by email to: OCIOPRA@ncua.gov. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information, a copy of the information collection request, or a copy of submitted comments should be directed to Jessica Khouri by mail at the National Credit Union Administration, 1775 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314–3428, by fax at Fax No. 703–837–2861, or by email at OCIOPRA@ncua.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Abstract and Request for Comments Section 709.4(b) of NCUA’s Rules and Regulations (12 CFR 709) requires the liquidating agent of a credit union placed into involuntary liquidation to publish a notice to creditors instructing creditors to present their claims to the liquidating agent by a specified date. Section 709.6 requires that any party wishing to submit a claim against the liquidated credit union must submit a written proof of claim. In addition, the liquidating agent may require claimants to submit supplemental evidence. The new collection of information requirement is that those creditors making a claim must document their claim and submit it to the liquidating agent by using the proposed Proof of Claim form. The liquidating agent notifies creditors of the need to submit a claim by means of a published notice or letters sent directly to creditors. Generally, one entity would have one claim against a credit union placed in liquidation. The liquidating agent would use the completed Proof of Claim form to determine a claim has been made against a liquidated credit union and evaluate the claim for payment. On occasion, the liquidating agent may require supplemental evidence from the claimant. NCUA estimates the liquidating agent will request ten percent (10%) of the claimants to furnish additional evidence to support the claim. In the Federal Register of June 17, 2014 (79 FR34555), NCUA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. NCUA received no comments. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. NCUA requests that you send your comments on this collection to the locations listed in the addresses section. Your comments should address: (a) The PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 3259 necessity of the information collection for the proper performance of NCUA, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of our estimate of the burden (hours and cost) of the collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways we could enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways we could minimize the burden of the collection of the information on the respondents such as through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. It is NCUA’s policy to make all comments available to the public for review. II. Data Title: Involuntary Liquidation Proof of Claim Form and Instructions. OMB Number: 3133–NEW. Form Number: None. Type of Review: New Collection. Description: Section 709.4(b) of the NCUA Rules and Regulations (12 CFR 709) requires the liquidating agent to publish notice to creditors, instructing creditors to present their claims to the liquidating agent by a specified date. Section 709.6 requires that creditors wishing to submit a claim against the liquidated credit union must submit a written proof of claim. Creditors would use the proposed Proof of Claim form to submit their claims. On occasion, the liquidating agent may require supplemental evidence from the claimant to support the claim. Respondents: Creditors making a claim against a liquidated credit union. Estimated No. of Respondents/ Recordkeepers: 220. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Burden Hours per Response: 1 hour. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 220 hours. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $11,000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrea George, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington DC 20555–0001; telephone: 301–415–1081, email: Andrea.George@nrc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, the Commission may, upon application by any interested person or upon its own initiative, grant exemptions from the requirements of 10 CFR part 50 when: (1) The exemptions are authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to public health or safety, and are consistent with the common defense and security; and (2) when special circumstances are present. Under 10 CFR 50.12(a)(2)(ii), special Entergy is the holder of renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF–6, which authorizes operation of Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO), Unit 2. The license provides, among other things, that the facility is subject to all rules, regulations, and orders of the NRC now or hereafter in effect. The ANO facility consists of two pressurized-water reactors, Units 1 and 2, located in Pope County, Arkansas. PO 00000 Frm 00048 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Pursuant to § 50.12 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Specific exemptions,’’ by letter dated January 21, 2014 (ADAMS Accession No. ML14021A085), as supplemented by letters dated March 17 and September 24, 2014 (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML14077A139 and ML14268A317, respectively), the licensee requested an exemption from certain requirements of 10 CFR part 50, Appendix J, ‘‘Primary Reactor Containment Leakage Testing for Water-Cooled Power Reactors.’’ Specifically, the licensee requested an exemption from Option B, Section III.B, Type B testing (seal pressure test) of the ANO, Unit 2, containment emergency escape air lock doors. This exemption would permit the licensee to perform a door seal contact verification check in lieu of the currently required seal pressure test. Section III.B, Option B, Appendix J, 10 CFR part 50, defines Type B tests as pneumatic tests to detect and measure local leakage rates across pressure retaining, leakage-limiting boundaries, which include containment emergency escape air lock door seals. Section III.B, Option B, Appendix J, 10 CFR part 50, also states that these boundaries, such as containment emergency escape air locks, must be pneumatically tested (1) prior to initial criticality, and (2) periodically thereafter at intervals based on the safety significance and historical performance of each boundary and isolation valve to ensure the integrity of the overall containment system as a barrier to fission product release. The licensee stated that the exemption request is necessary due to the design characteristics of the ANO, Unit 2, containment emergency escape air lock doors, in that the door sealing capability relies, in part, on rising containment pressure to provide sufficient closing force to produce an effective seal. In order to perform between-the-seals testing for the doors in the absence of containment pressure, a strongback must be installed to simulate this sealing force. III.
