asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
OSHA’s recognition of any NRTL for
a particular test standard is limited to
equipment or materials for which OSHA
standards require third-party testing and
certification before using them in the
workplace. Consequently, if a test
standard also covers any products for
which OSHA does not require such
testing and certification, an NRTL’s
scope of recognition does not include
these products.
The American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) may approve the test
standards listed above as American
National Standards. However, for
convenience, we may use the
designation of the standards-developing
organization for the standard as opposed
to the ANSI designation. Under the
NRTL Program’s policy (see OSHA
Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix C,
paragraph XIV), any NRTL recognized
for a particular test standard may use
either the proprietary version of the test
standard or the ANSI version of that
standard. Contact ANSI to determine
whether a test standard is currently
ANSI-approved.
OSHA limits the renewal of QPS’s
recognition to include the terms and
conditions of QPS’s scope of
recognition, inclusive of the expansion
of scope granted in this notice. The
scope of recognition for QPS is available
in the Federal Register notice dated
March 2, 2011 (79 FR 11518) or on
OSHA’s Web site at https://
www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/qps.html.
This renewal extends QPS’s recognition
for a period of five years from April 25,
2016.
Conditions
In addition to those conditions
already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, QPS
also must abide by the following
conditions of recognition:
1. QPS must inform OSHA as soon as
possible, in writing, of any change of
ownership, facilities, or key personnel,
and of any major change in its
operations as an NRTL, and provide
details of the change(s);
2. QPS must meet all the terms of its
recognition and comply with all OSHA
policies pertaining to this recognition;
and
3. QPS must continue to meet the
requirements for recognition, including
all previously published conditions on
QPS’s scope of recognition, in all areas
for which it has recognition.

Pursuant to the Federal

hereby given that the Federal Council
on the Arts and the Humanities will
hold a meeting of the Arts and Artifacts
International Indemnity Panel.
DATES: The meeting will be held on
Wednesday, May 18, 2016, from 1:00

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
purpose of the meeting is for panel
review, discussion, evaluation, and
recommendation on applications for
Certificates of Indemnity submitted to
the Federal Council on the Arts and the
Humanities, for exhibitions beginning
on or after July 1, 2016. Because the
meeting will consider proprietary
financial and commercial data provided
in confidence by indemnity applicants,
and material that is likely to disclose
trade secrets or other privileged or
confidential information, and because it
is important to keep the values of
objects to be indemnified, and the
methods of transportation and security
measures confidential, I have
determined that the meeting will be
closed to the public pursuant to
subsection (c)(4) of section 552b of Title
5, United States Code. I have made this
determination under the authority
granted me by the Chairman’s

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The VY site is a single unit facility
located near the town of Vernon,
Vermont. The site is situated in
Windham County on the western shore
of the Connecticut River, immediately
upstream of the Vernon Hydroelectric
Station. The VY facility employs a
General Electric boiling water reactor
nuclear steam supply system licensed to
generate 1,912 megawatts thermal. The
boiling water reactor and supporting
facilities are owned and operated by
Entergy Vermont Yankee, a subsidiary
of ENO. The licensee, ENO, is the
holder of Renewed Facility Operating
License No. DPR–28. The license
PO 00000
Frm 00085
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
provides, among other things, that the
facility is subject to all rules,
regulations, and orders of the NRC now
or hereafter in effect.
By letter dated September 23, 2013
(ADAMS Accession No. ML13273A204),
ENO submitted a notification to the
NRC indicating that it would
permanently shut down VY in the
fourth calendar quarter of 2014. On
December 29, 2014, ENO permanently
ceased power operations at VY. On
January 12, 2015, ENO certified that it
had permanently defueled the VY
reactor vessel and placed the fuel in the
spent fuel pool (SFP) (ADAMS
Accession No. ML15013A426).
Accordingly, pursuant to § 50.82(a)(2) of
title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), the VY renewed
facility operating license no longer
authorized operation of the reactor or
emplacement or retention of fuel in the
reactor vessel. However, the licensee is
still authorized to possess and store
irradiated nuclear fuel. Irradiated fuel is
currently being stored onsite in a SFP
and independent spent fuel storage
installation dry casks.
II. Request/Action
Under 10 CFR 50.12, ‘‘Specific
exemptions,’’ ENO has requested an
exemption from 10 CFR 50.54(w)(1) by
letter dated April 17, 2014 (ADAMS
Accession No. ML14111A401). The
exemption from the requirements of 10
CFR 50.54(w)(1) would permit ENO to
reduce its onsite property damage
insurance from $1.06 billion to $50
million.
The regulation in 10 CFR 50.54(w)(1)
requires each licensee to have and
maintain onsite property damage
insurance to stabilize and
decontaminate the reactor and reactor
site in the event of an accident. The
onsite insurance coverage must be either
$1.06 billion or whatever amount of
insurance is generally available from
private sources (whichever is less).
The licensee states that the risk of an
accident at a permanently shutdown
and defueled reactor is much less than
the risk from an operating power
reactor. In addition, since reactor
operation is no longer authorized at VY,
there are no events that would require
the stabilization of reactor conditions
after an accident. Similarly, the risk of
an accident that would result in
significant onsite contamination at VY
is also much lower than the risk of such
an event at operating reactors.
Therefore, ENO is requesting an
exemption from 10 CFR 50.54(w)(1),
effective April 15, 2016, that would
permit a reduction in its onsite property
damage insurance from $1.06 billion to
