IPG contends that the Judges’ concern expressed in that order (which IPG contends was ‘‘unwarranted’’) ‘‘was inspired by nothing more than inflammatory rhetoric of the [Settling Devotional Claimants].’’ IPG Reply at 7. Before authorizing a partial distribution of royalty funds requested under Section 801(b)(3)(C) of the Copyright Act, the Judges must first publish a notice in the Federal Register seeking responses to the request to ascertain whether any claimant entitled to receive such royalty fees has a reasonable objection to the proposed distribution. This Notice seeks comments on whether any interested claimant asserts a reasonable objection to IPG’s request. The Judges must receive written objections detailing the existence and extent of any entity’s objection(s) by the end of the comment period. The Judges will not consider any objections with respect to the partial distribution motion that come to their attention after the close of that period. In particular, the Judges seek comment on whether IPG should be considered an ‘‘established claimant’’ for purposes of receiving a partial distribution of royalties, and, if so, for what years and for which Phase I categories, and for which funds. For example, assuming for the sake of argument that IPG is deemed an ‘‘established claimant’’ with respect to the Phase I Program Suppliers Category for cable for a particular year, does that status carry over to other Phase I categories (e.g., Devotionals, Joint Sports, etc.)? Does it carry over to all years? If not, to which years does the ‘‘established claimant’’ status apply? Moreover, does the status of an established cable claimant (or claimant representative) carry over to satellite royalties, as IPG contends, or only to cable royalties? Does the reverse also apply (i.e., is an ‘‘established claimant’’ for purposes of satellite also an ‘‘established claimant’’ for cable)? 3 The Judges note that MPAA proposed a Program Suppliers satellite share allocation to IPG of 0.20% in 2002 and 0.13% in 2004. For the eight remaining years in controversy, MPAA proposed shares higher than 0.20%. MPAA-Represented Program Suppliers’ Proposed Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law at 7 (Aug. 17, 2015). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:21 Dec 15, 2015 Jkt 238001 If the Judges determine that IPG is an ‘‘established claimant’’ for the first time for any fund, are there safeguards (in addition to the pay-back agreement) the Judges can and should employ to ensure that IPG is able and willing to disgorge in the event of overpaid funds? Which safeguards would be appropriate or necessary? How long should they last and how would they be enforced? If the Judges determine that IPG is entitled to the partial distribution it requests, what methodology should the Judges use to determine the dollar amount to which IPG is entitled? Would it be necessary for the Judges (or the Licensing Division of the Copyright Office, or both) to have access to all applicable Phase I confidential agreements to make the necessary calculations or is another means available? Commenters should consider what special calculations would have to be made to determine IPG’s share of the various subfunds (Basic, Syndex and 3.75%) in addition to calculating interest on (and deductions of applicable expenses against) funds deposited with the Licensing Division. The issues and questions set forth above are not necessarily exhaustive. Commenters may address any other issues or questions that they believe are relevant to the pending Motion.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Introduction The NRC is considering a request to amend Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR–18, issued to Exelon for operation of Ginna, including the general-licensed Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation, Docket No. 72–67, located in Wayne County, NY, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR). Consistent with 10 CFR 51.21, the NRC has reviewed the requirements of 10 CFR 51.20(b) and 10 CFR 51.22(c) and determined that an EA is the appropriate form of environmental review. Based on the results of the EA, the NRC is issuing this final FONSI. The requested amendment would permit licensee security personnel to use certain firearms and ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms laws or regulations that otherwise prohibit such actions. The NRC published a draft EA and FONSI on the proposed action for public comment in the Federal Register on October 29, 2015 (80 FR 66586). No comments were received. II. Environmental Assessment Identification of the Proposed Action The proposed action would permit security personnel at Ginna, in the performance of official duties, to transfer, receive, possess, transport, import, and use certain firearms and large capacity ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be owned or possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms laws, or regulations, that otherwise prohibit such actions. The proposed action is in accordance with Exelon’s application dated August 14, 2013, as supplemented by letters dated November 4, 2013, May 14, 2014, and January 16, 2015. The Need for the Proposed Action The proposed action would allow the transfer, receipt, possession, transportation, importation and use of those firearms and devices needed in the performance of official duties required for the protection of Ginna and associated special nuclear material, as stated in the Ginna NRC-approved security plan. PO 00000 Frm 00094 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Action The NRC has completed its evaluation of the proposed action and concludes that the proposed action would only allow the use of those firearms and devices necessary to protect Ginna and associated special nuclear material, consistent with the Ginna NRCapproved security plan. Therefore, the proposed action would not significantly increase the probability or consequences of accidents. In addition, the proposed action would not change the types and the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite. There would also be no significant increase in occupational or public radiation exposure. Therefore, there would be no significant radiological environmental impacts associated with the proposed action. The proposed action would not impact land, air, or water resources, including biota. In addition, the proposed action would not result in any socioeconomic or environmental justice impacts or impacts to historic and cultural resources. Therefore, there would also be no significant nonradiologial environmental impacts associated with the proposed action. Accordingly, the NRC concludes that the issuance of the requested amendment would not result in significant environmental impacts. Details of the NRC’s evaluation will be included in a letter to the licensee. Environmental Impacts of the Alternatives to the Proposed Action As an alternative to the proposed action, the NRC staff considered denying the proposed action (i.e., the ‘‘no-action’’ alternative). Denial of the license amendment request would result in no change in current environmental conditions at the Ginna. Alternative Use of Resources The proposed action would not involve the use of any resources. Agencies and Persons Consulted The staff did not consult with any other Federal Agency or State of New York agencies regarding the environmental impact of the proposed action. III. Finding of No Significant Impact The licensee has requested a license amendment to permit licensee security personnel, in the performance of official duties, to transfer, receive, possess, transport, import, and use certain firearms and large capacity ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be owned or possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain E:\FR\FM\16DEN1.SGM 16DEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 241 / Wednesday, December 16, 2015 / Notices Federal firearms laws, or regulations that would otherwise prohibit such actions.

In addition, the NRC has determined that an environmental impact statement is not necessary for the evaluation of this proposed action. Other than the licensee’s letter dated August 14, 2013, there are no other environmental documents associated with this review. This document is available for public inspection as indicated above.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction

    The NRC is considering a request to amend Renewed Facility 
Operating License No. DPR-18, issued to Exelon for operation of Ginna, 
including the general-licensed Independent Spent Fuel Storage 
Installation, Docket No. 72-67, located in Wayne County, NY, in 
accordance with 10 CFR 50.90 of title 10 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations (10 CFR). Consistent with 10 CFR 51.21, the NRC has 
reviewed the requirements of 10 CFR 51.20(b) and 10 CFR 51.22(c) and 
determined that an EA is the appropriate form of environmental review. 
Based on the results of the EA, the NRC is issuing this final FONSI. 
The requested amendment would permit licensee security personnel to use 
certain firearms and ammunition feeding devices not previously 
permitted, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms 
laws or regulations that otherwise prohibit such actions.
    The NRC published a draft EA and FONSI on the proposed action for 
public comment in the Federal Register on October 29, 2015 (80 FR 
66586). No comments were received.

II. Environmental Assessment

Identification of the Proposed Action

    The proposed action would permit security personnel at Ginna, in 
the performance of official duties, to transfer, receive, possess, 
transport, import, and use certain firearms and large capacity 
ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be owned or 
possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain Federal firearms 
laws, or regulations, that otherwise prohibit such actions.
    The proposed action is in accordance with Exelon's application 
dated August 14, 2013, as supplemented by letters dated November 4, 
2013, May 14, 2014, and January 16, 2015.

The Need for the Proposed Action

    The proposed action would allow the transfer, receipt, possession, 
transportation, importation and use of those firearms and devices 
needed in the performance of official duties required for the 
protection of Ginna and associated special nuclear material, as stated 
in the Ginna NRC-approved security plan.

Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Action

    The NRC has completed its evaluation of the proposed action and 
concludes that the proposed action would only allow the use of those 
firearms and devices necessary to protect Ginna and associated special 
nuclear material, consistent with the Ginna NRC-approved security plan. 
Therefore, the proposed action would not significantly increase the 
probability or consequences of accidents. In addition, the proposed 
action would not change the types and the amounts of any effluents that 
may be released offsite. There would also be no significant increase in 
occupational or public radiation exposure. Therefore, there would be no 
significant radiological environmental impacts associated with the 
proposed action.
    The proposed action would not impact land, air, or water resources, 
including biota. In addition, the proposed action would not result in 
any socioeconomic or environmental justice impacts or impacts to 
historic and cultural resources. Therefore, there would also be no 
significant non-radiologial environmental impacts associated with the 
proposed action.
    Accordingly, the NRC concludes that the issuance of the requested 
amendment would not result in significant environmental impacts.
    Details of the NRC's evaluation will be included in a letter to the 
licensee.

Environmental Impacts of the Alternatives to the Proposed Action

    As an alternative to the proposed action, the NRC staff considered 
denying the proposed action (i.e., the ``no-action'' alternative). 
Denial of the license amendment request would result in no change in 
current environmental conditions at the Ginna.

Alternative Use of Resources

    The proposed action would not involve the use of any resources.

Agencies and Persons Consulted

    The staff did not consult with any other Federal Agency or State of 
New York agencies regarding the environmental impact of the proposed 
action.

III. Finding of No Significant Impact

    The licensee has requested a license amendment to permit licensee 
security personnel, in the performance of official duties, to transfer, 
receive, possess, transport, import, and use certain firearms and large 
capacity ammunition feeding devices not previously permitted to be 
owned or possessed, notwithstanding State, local, and certain

[[Page 78255]]

Federal firearms laws, or regulations that would otherwise prohibit 
such actions.
    On the basis of the information presented in this environmental 
assessment, the NRC concludes that the proposed action would not cause 
any significant environmental impact and would not have a significant 
effect on the quality of the human environment. In addition, the NRC 
has determined that an environmental impact statement is not necessary 
for the evaluation of this proposed action.
    Other than the licensee's letter dated August 14, 2013, there are 
no other environmental documents associated with this review. This 
document is available for public inspection as indicated above.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 8th day of December 2015.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
