If you are deaf or hard of hearing or have a speech disability, please dial 7–1–1 to access telecommunications relay services. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 4262 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) requires PBGC to provide special financial assistance (SFA) to certain financially troubled multiemployer plans upon application for assistance. Part 4262 of PBGC’s regulations, ‘‘Special Financial Assistance by PBGC,’’ provides guidance to multiemployer pension plan sponsors on eligibility, determining the amount of SFA, content of an application for SFA, the process of applying, PBGC’s review of applications, restrictions and conditions, and reporting and notice requirements. To apply for SFA, a plan sponsor must file an application with PBGC and include information about the plan, plan documentation, and actuarial information, as specified in §§ 4262.6 through 4262.9. Also, if the plan is changing certain assumptions for purposes of demonstrating its eligibility for SFA or its requested amount of SFA, then the plan sponsor may use PBGC’s SFA assumptions guidance. PBGC needs the application information to review a plan’s eligibility for SFA, priority group status (if applicable), and amount of requested SFA. In this renewal, PBGC is making clarifying changes to the application instructions, including to the information required to be filed. For example, PBGC is clarifying the required documentation of a death audit and the information to be filed for certain assumptions changes. PBGC estimates that over the next 3 years an annual average of 59 plan sponsors will file applications for SFA (initial, revised, and supplemented) with an average annual hour burden of 590 hours and an average annual cost burden of $1,770,000. Under § 4262.10(g), a plan sponsor may, but is not required to, file a lockin application as a plan’s initial application. The lock-in application contains basic information about the plan and a statement of intent to lockin base data. PBGC needs the E:\FR\FM\28NON1.SGM 28NON1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Discussion

    On August 12, 2022, Abilene Christian University (ACU) filed, 
pursuant to Section 104c. of the Atomic Energy Act and part 50 of title 
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), ``Domestic Licensing of 
Production and Utilization Facilities,'' an application (ADAMS Package 
Accession No. ML22227A201) for a construction permit for the molten

CFR 50.2), which would be located in Abilene, Texas. The MSRR would be

reactor that uses molten fluoride-based fuel salt. A notice of receipt 
and availability of this portion of the application was published in 
the Federal Register on October 14, 2022 (87 FR 62463).
    The MSRR construction permit application consisted of the following 
information:
     The general information required by 10 CFR 50.33,
     The Preliminary Safety Analysis Report required by 10 CFR 
50.34(a), and
     Environmental Information as required by 10 CFR 51.41.
    On September 27, 2022, the NRC staff notified ACU that it needed 
additional information and was pausing the docketing review to allow 
ACU the opportunity to supplement its construction permit application 
(ADAMS Package Accession No. ML22270A170). On October 14, 2022, ACU 
supplemented its construction permit application with additional 
information regarding the proposed MSRR's instrumentation and control 
system design (ADAMS Package Accession No. ML22293B816).
    The NRC staff determined that the application, as supplemented, is 
acceptable for docketing under Docket No. 50-610. The NRC staff 
provided ACU notice of the determination that its application was 
acceptable for docketing by letter dated November 18, 2022 (ADAMS 
Accession No. ML22313A097).
    The NRC staff will perform a detailed technical review of the

safety evaluation report. Also, in accordance with 10 CFR part 51, 
``Environmental Protection Regulations for Domestic Licensing and 
Related Regulatory Functions,'' the NRC staff will conduct an 
environmental review of the proposed action.
    Docketing of the application does not preclude the NRC from 
requesting additional information from the applicant as the review 
proceeds, nor does it predict whether the Commission will grant or deny 
the application. If the Commission finds that the construction permit 
application meets the applicable standards of the Atomic Energy Act and

construction permit, in the form and containing conditions and 
limitations that the Commission finds appropriate and necessary.

permit application.
