The National Endowment for
the Arts (NEA), as part of its continuing
effort to reduce paperwork and
respondent burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to
provide the general public and Federal
agencies with an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. This program
helps to ensure that requested data can
be provided in the desired format,
reporting burden (time and financial
resources) is minimized, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
the impact of collection requirements on
respondents can be properly assessed.
Currently, the NEA is soliciting
comments concerning the proposed
information collection for the Regional
and State Arts Agency American Rescue
Plan (ARP) Funding Survey. Copies of
the ICR, with applicable supporting
documentation, may be obtained by
vising www.Reginfo.gov.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
address section below within 30 days
from the date of this publication in the
Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for proposed
information collection requests should
be sent within 30 days of publication of
this Notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/
do/PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection request by
selecting ‘‘National Endowment for the
Arts’’ under ‘‘Currently Under Review;’’
then check ‘‘Only Show ICR for Public
Comment’’ checkbox. Once you have
found this information collection
request, select ‘‘Comment,’’ and enter or
upload your comment and information.
Alternatively, comments can be sent to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Attn: OMB Desk Officer for the
National Endowment for the Arts, Office
of Management and Budget, Room
10235, Washington, DC 20503, or call
(202) 395–7316, within 30 days from the
date of this publication in the Federal
Register.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NEA
is particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;

• Enhance the quality, utility, and

collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions

Agency: National Endowment for the

Title: Regional and State Arts Agency
ARP Funding Survey.
OMB number: 3135–0144.
Frequency: One-time web survey.
Affected public: States arts agencies
and regional arts organizations staff
members.
Estimated number of respondents: 62.
Total burden hours: 279 hours (62
responses, average 4.5 hours).
Total annualized capital/startup
Costs: $0.
Total annual costs (operating/
maintaining systems or purchasing
services): $25,000.
Description
The planned data collection is a new
information collection request, and the
data to be collected are not available
elsewhere unless obtained through this
information collection. The web-based
survey is planned to be administered
once during winter 2023, contingent
upon OMB approval. Knowledge gained
through this information collection will
enable the NEA to collect information
on emergency relief funding provided
by the American Rescue Plan (ARP) to
state and regional subgrantees from the
NEA. Currently, the NEA does not
collect any information about the
benefits of ARP funding awarded to
states and regions.
The NEA is compelled by Congress to
obligate 40 percent of its program
budget to state arts agencies and
regional arts organizations through
Partnership Agreements (20 U.S.C.
954(g)). In turn, state arts agencies and
regional arts organizations use these
funds to support state and regional
grantmaking and other programming,
‘‘developing projects and productions in
the arts in such a manner as will furnish
adequate programs, facilities, and
services in the arts to all the people and
communities in each of the several
States’’ (20 U.S.C. 954. (g)(1)). ARP
funds were administered to state arts
agencies and regional art organizations
via amendments to FY 2021 Partnership
Agreements.
For regular Partnership Agreements,
states and regional jurisdictions are

required to annually report subgrantee
data to the NEA via Final Descriptive
Reports (OMB Control Number 3135–
0140). However, Final Descriptive
Reports do not request data related to
jobs and infrastructure investments,
which were the primary purpose of ARP
funds to state arts agencies and regional
arts organizations. In an effort to
understand the benefits and outcomes of
emergency relief funds going to the 56
states and jurisdictions, and six regions,
the NEA is partnering with National
Assembly of State Arts Agencies
(NASAA) to collect data on the how
subgrantees used ARP funds.
The Regional and State Arts Agency
ARP Funding Survey is modeled after
the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and
Economic Security Act (CARES Act)
Funding Survey approved by OMB
under this OMB Control Number (see
ICR Ref. No. 202105–3135–001) and
administered by the NEA in partnership
with NASAA in 2020. The two surveys
are identical with the exception that
programmatic information, like grant
program name and description, has been
updated in the Regional and State Arts
Agency ARP Funding Survey to include
ARP, not CARES Act information. The
intent of both surveys is to assess how
federal Covid–19 relief funding from the
NEA supported the continuation or
creation of jobs and investment in
infrastructure for state and regional
subgrantees. Administering the survey
will allow the NEA to again report on
the outcomes of the relief funds that
were distributed to states arts agencies
and regional arts organizations.
The NEA’s Office of Research &
Analysis decided to survey state arts
agencies and regional arts organizations
because it would fill a gap in knowledge
of the 40 percent of ARP funding
allocated to states and regions. The
questions in the survey will capture the
jobs subgrantees were able to maintain
or create, and the amount invested in
infrastructure, as a result of ARP
emergency relief. The survey will also
provide an opportunity for state arts
agencies and regional arts organizations
to share additional qualitative or
quantitative subgrantee data related to
ARP funding they collected. The
information will allow the NEA to
examine the outcomes of ARP funds on
subgrantees of state arts agencies and
regional arts organizations to
understand how these funds were used
to support arts organizations and benefit
the public.
NASAA will report the survey data to
the public in the aggregate and include
an analysis of subgrantee data along
with direct grantee data to understand
and track outcomes of ARP funding. The

primary indicators will be the number
of jobs created or maintained by
grantees and subgrantees (full-time and
part-time), and the infrastructure
supported with ARP funds.

Commission.
ACTION: License amendment application;
opportunity to comment, request a
hearing, and to petition for leave to
intervene; order imposing procedures.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is considering
issuance of an amendment to Possession
Only License (POL) No. DPR–73, issued
to TMI–2 Solutions, LLC (TMI–2
Solutions) for Three Mile Island Station,
Unit No. 2 (TMI–2). Pursuant to NRC
regulations, TMI–2 Solutions proposes
an amendment to the POL for TMI–2.
This proposed license amendment
request (LAR), upon approval, would
revise the POL and the associated
Technical Specifications (TS) to support
the transition of TMI–2 from Post
Defueled Monitoring Storage (PDMS) to
that of a facility undergoing
decommissioning. The proposed
amendment would revise the POL and
TS to support Phase 1b and Phase 2
decommissioning activities associated
with achieving the removal of all debris
material,1 its transfer to dry cask storage
at an Independent Spent Fuel Storage
Installation or to a suitable waste storage
area, and the relocation of various
requirements and the sealed sources TS
to the TMI–2 Decommissioning Quality
Assurance Plan (DQAP). For this
amendment request, the NRC proposes
to determine that it involves no
significant hazards consideration
(NSHC). Because the amendment
request contains sensitive unclassified
non-safeguards information (SUNSI), an
order imposes procedures to obtain
access to SUNSI for contention
