Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 205 / Monday, October 24, 2016 / Notices
detailed in NRC’s ‘‘Guidance for
Electronic Submission,’’ which is
available on the agency’s public Web
site at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. Participants may
attempt to use other software not listed
on the Web site, but should note that the
NRC’s E-Filing system does not support
unlisted software, and the NRC Meta
System Help Desk will not be able to
offer assistance in using unlisted
software.
If a participant is electronically
submitting a document to the NRC in
accordance with the E-Filing rule, the
participant must file the document
using the NRC’s online, Web-based
submission form. In order to serve
documents through the Electronic
Information Exchange (EIE), users will
be required to install a Web browser
plug-in from the NRC Web site. Further
information on the Web-based
submission form, including the
installation of the Web browser plug-in,
is available on the NRC’s public Web
site at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html.
Once a participant has obtained a
digital ID certificate and a docket has
been created, the participant can then
submit a request for hearing or petition
for leave to intervene through the EIE.
Submissions should be in Portable
Document Format (PDF) in accordance
with NRC guidance available on the
NRC public Web site at https://
www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. A filing is considered
complete at the time the documents are
submitted through the NRC’s E-Filing
system. To be timely, an electronic
filing must be submitted to the E-Filing
system no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern
Time on the due date. Upon receipt of
a transmission, the E-Filing system
time-stamps the document and sends
the submitter an e-mail notice
confirming receipt of the document. The
E-Filing system also distributes an email notice that provides access to the
document to the NRC Office of the
General Counsel and any others who
have advised the Office of the Secretary
that they wish to participate in the
proceeding, so that the filer need not
serve the documents on those
participants separately. Therefore, Any
others who wish to participate in the
proceeding (or their counsel or
representative) must apply for and
receive a digital ID certificate before a
hearing request/petition to intervene is
filed so that they can obtain access to
the document via E-Filing system.
A person filing electronically using
the agency’s adjudicatory E-Filing
system may seek assistance by
contacting the NRC Meta System Help

excluding government holidays.
Participants who believe that they
have a good cause for not submitting
documents electronically must file an
exemption request, in accordance with
10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper
filing requesting authorization to
continue to submit documents in paper
format. Such filings must be submitted
by: (1) First class mail addressed to the

manner are responsible for serving the
document on all other participants.
Filing is considered complete by firstclass mail as of the time of deposit in
the mail, or by courier, express mail, or
expedited delivery service upon
depositing the document with the
provider of the service. A presiding
officer, having granted an exemption
request from using E-Filing, may require
a participant or party to use E-Filing if
the presiding officer subsequently
determines that the reason for granting
the exemption from use of E-Filing no
longer exists.
Documents submitted in adjudicatory
proceedings will appear in NRC’s
electronic hearing docket which is
available to the public at https://
ehd.nrc.gov/EHD_Proceeding/home.asp,
unless excluded pursuant to an order of
the Commission, or the presiding

or other law requires submission of such
information. With respect to
copyrighted works, participants are
requested not to include copyrighted
materials in their submission, except for
limited excerpts that serve the purpose
of the adjudicatory filings and would
constitute a Fair Use application.

If a hearing is requested by a person
whose interest is adversely affected, the
Commission will issue a separate
Confirmatory Order designating the time
and place of any hearing, as appropriate.
If a hearing is held, the issue to be
considered at such hearing shall be
whether this Confirmatory Order should
be sustained.
In the absence of any request for
hearing, or written approval of an
extension of time in which to request a
hearing, the provisions specified in
Section V above shall be final 30 days
after issuance of this Confirmatory
Order without further order or
proceedings. If an extension of time for
requesting a hearing has been approved,
the provisions specified in Section V
shall be final when the extension
expires if a hearing request has not been
received.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50–193; NRC–2016–0213]
Rhode Island Atomic Energy
Commission; Rhode Island Nuclear
Science Center Reactor
Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
ACTION: License renewal application;
opportunity to request a hearing and to
petition for leave to intervene, order
imposing procedures.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is considering an
application for the renewal of Facility
Operating License No. R–95, which
currently authorizes the Rhode Island
Atomic Energy Commission (RIAEC or
the licensee) to operate the Rhode Island
Nuclear Science Center (RINSC) reactor
at a maximum steady-state thermal
power of 2 megawatts (MW). The RINSC
reactor is a plate type fueled research
reactor located at the University of
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:42 Oct 21, 2016
Jkt 241001
Rhode Island Narragansett Bay Campus,
in Narragansett, Rhode Island. If
approved, the renewed license would
authorize the licensee to operate the
RINSC reactor up to a steady-state
thermal power of 2 MW for an
additional 20 years from the date of
issuance of the renewed license.
Because the license renewal application
contains sensitive unclassified nonsafeguards information (SUNSI), an
order imposes procedures to obtain
access to SUNSI for contention
preparation.
A request for a hearing or
petition for leave to intervene must be
filed by December 23, 2016. Any
potential party as defined in § 2.4 of title
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(10 CFR), who believes access to SUNSI
is necessary to respond to this notice
must request document access by
November 3, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The NRC is considering an
application for the renewal of Facility
Operating License No. R–95, which
authorizes the licensee to operate the
RINSC reactor, located at the University
of Rhode Island Narragansett Bay
Campus, at a maximum steady-state
thermal power of 2 MW. The renewed
license would authorize the licensee to
operate the RINSC reactor up to a
steady-state thermal power of 2 MW for
an additional 20 years from the date of
issuance of the renewed license.
By letter dated May 3, 2004, and as
supplemented by various letters
referenced in Section IV, ‘‘Availability
of Documents’’ of this notice, the NRC
received an application from the
licensee filed pursuant to § 50.51(a) to
renew Facility Operating License No. R–
95 for the RINSC reactor. The
application contains SUNSI.
Based on its initial review of the
application, the NRC staff determined
that the licensee submitted sufficient
information in accordance with §§ 50.33
and 50.34 and that the application is
acceptable for docketing. The current
docket, Docket No. 50–193, for Facility
Operating License No. R–95 will be
retained. The docketing of the renewal
application does not preclude requests
for additional information as the review
proceeds, nor does it predict whether
the Commission will grant or deny the
requested renewed license. Prior to a
decision to renew the license, the
Commission will make findings
required by the Atomic Energy Act of
1954, as amended (the Act), and the
Commission’s rules and regulations.
II. Opportunity To Request a Hearing
and Petition for Leave To Intervene
Within 60 days after the date of
publication of this notice, any person
(petitioner) whose interest may be
affected by this action may file a request
for a hearing and a petition to intervene
(petition) with respect to the action.
Petitions shall be filed in accordance
with the Commission’s ‘‘Agency Rules
of Practice and Procedure’’ in 10 CFR
part 2. Interested persons should
consult a current copy of 10 CFR 2.309,
which is available at the NRC’s PDR,
located at One White Flint North, Room
O1–F21, 11555 Rockville Pike (first
floor), Rockville, Maryland 20852. The
NRC’s regulations are accessible
electronically from the NRC Library on
the NRC’s Web site at https://
