chapter 35), the NRC is requesting
public comment on its intention to
request the OMB’s approval for the
information collection summarized
below.
1. The title of the information
collection: 10 CFR part 37, Physical
Protection of Category 1 and Category 2
Quantities of Radioactive Material.
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0214.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable:
Standard Fingerprint Form, FD–258.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: One time for initial
compliance notifications and
fingerprints for the reviewing officials;

notifications of shipments of radioactive
material, and fingerprinting of new
employees.

respond: Licensees that are authorized
to possess and use category 1 or
category 2 quantities of radioactive
material.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 103,983.
8. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 1,500 (300 NRC Licensees
+ 1,200 Agreement State Licensees).

10. Abstract: Part 37 of Title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
contains security requirements for the
use of category 1 and category 2
quantities of radioactive material.
Licensees are required to: (1) Develop
procedures for implementation of the
security provisions; (2) develop a
security plan that describes how
security is being implemented; (3)
conduct training on the procedures and
security plan; (4) conduct background
investigations for those individuals
permitted access to category 1 or
category 2 quantities of radioactive
material; (5) coordinate with LLEAs so
the LLEAs would be better prepared to
respond in an emergency; (6) conduct
preplanning and coordination activities
before shipping radioactive material;
and (7) implement security measures for
the protection of the radioactive
material. Licensees are required to
promptly report any attempted or actual
theft or diversion of the radioactive
material. Licensees are required to keep
copies of the security plan, procedures,
background investigation records,
training records, and documentation
that certain activities have occurred.
The NRC uses the information required
by 10 CFR part 37 to fulfill its
responsibilities to respond to,
investigate, and correct situations that
adversely affect public health and safety
or the common defense and security.
III. Specific Requests for Comments
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
The NRC is seeking comments that
address the following questions:
1. Is the proposed collection of
information necessary for the NRC to
properly perform its functions? Does the
information have practical utility?
2. Is the estimate of the burden of the
information collection accurate?
3. Is there a way to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected?
4. How can the burden of the
information collection on respondents
be minimized, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology?

withdraw its application dated
November 22, 2013, as supplemented by
letters dated April 4, August 15,

Renewed Facility Operating License
(RFOL) Nos. DPR–33, DPR–52, and
DPR–68, for the Browns Ferry Nuclear
Plant, Units 1, 2, and 3 (Browns Ferry).
The proposed amendment would have
revised the Browns Ferry Technical
Specifications to decrease the allowable
leakage rate criteria for the Main Steam
Isolation Valves (MSIVs).
DATES: June 23, 2015.

The NRC
has granted the request of the TVA to
withdraw its November 22, 2013,
application for the proposed
amendment to RFOLs for Browns Ferry,
located in Limestone County, AL.
By letter dated November 22, 2013
(ADAMS Accession No. ML14015A403),
as supplemented by letters dated April
4, August 15, September 30, 2014, and
January 29, 2015 (ADAMS Accession
Nos. ML14100A143, ML14230A827,
ML14275A247, and ML15030A499,
respectively), TVA proposed changing
Browns Ferry Technical Specification
3.6.1.3, ‘‘Primary Containment Isolation
Valves (PCIVs),’’ to reduce the
individual and total leakage rate
through the MSIVs. In the TVA letter
dated August 30, 2013, ‘‘Updated Reply
to Notice of Violation; EA–11–252,’’ the
Alternative Leakage Treatment (ALT)
Pathway was identified as being in a
nonconforming/degraded condition.
The corrective actions that were
outlined to change the ALT Pathway
included modification of licensing
documents to show lower individual
and total leakage rates through the
MSIVs. The proposed change would
have made the current passive
secondary ALT Pathway the primary
pathway and decreased the leakage rates
from 100 standard cubic feet per hour
(scfh) per valve to 60 scfh for individual
MSIVs and the combined leakage rates
for all four main steam lines from 150
scfh to 85 scfh.
The NRC published a Biweekly Notice
in the Federal Register on April 8, 2014
(79 FR 19401), that gave notice that this
proposed amendment was under
consideration by the NRC. However, by
letter dated May 29, 2015 (ADAMS
Accession No ML15159B009), the
licensee requested to withdraw the
proposed amendment.
