BILLING CODE 3510-DT-M DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE International Trade Administration [A-201-817] Oil Country Tubular Goods from Mexico: Notice of NAFTA Panel Decision Not In Harmony With Final Results of Sunset Administrative Review AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce. SUMMARY: On July 19, 2007, a Bi-National Panel (“Panel”) constituted under the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”) affirmed the Department of Commerce's (“the Department's”) redetermination on remand of the final results of the sunset review on oil country tubular goods from Mexico. *See In the Matter of:

Oil Country Tubular Goods from Mexico; Final Results of Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order* , USA-MEX-2001-1904-03 (July 19, 2007) (“ *NAFTA Final Decision* ”). The Panel issued its Notice of Final Panel Action in the above-referenced matter on July 30, 2007. This case arises out of the Department's determination in the final results of the first sunset review covering entries for the five years after August 11, 1995. *See Oil Country Tubular Goods (“OCTG”) from Mexico:

Final Results of Sunset Review of Antidumping Order* , 66 FR 14131 (March 9, 2001) and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum (“ *Final Results* ”). Consistent with the decision of the *United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Timken Co. v. United States* , 893 F.2d 337 (Fed. Cir. 1990) (“Timken”), the Department is notifying the public that the *NAFTA Final Decision* and the Notice of Final Panel Action are not in harmony with the Department's *Final Results* .

EFFECTIVE DATE: August 9, 2007 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Drury or Angelica Mendoza, AD/CVD Operations, Office 7, Import Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone:

(202)482-0195 or

(202)482-3019, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the *Final Results* , the Department determined that revocation of the antidumping duty order would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping. Subsequent to the completion of the sunset review, Tubos de Aceros de Mexico, S.A. (“TAMSA”) challenged the Department's findings and requested that a Bi-National Panel review the final determination. From 2005 to 2007, the Panel issued multiple decisions remanding various aspects of the Department's decision to the agency. *See* Panel decisions of February 11, 2005, February 3, 2006, July 28, 2006, and January 17, 2007. In response to the Panel's January 17, 2007, order, the Department analyzed the redetermination on remand and found that TAMSA's 'other factors' did not outweigh the likelihood presumption of dumping due to the virtual cessation of exports of OCTG by TAMSA during the five-year review period. The Panel disagreed with the Department's factual and legal conclusions with regard to the issues, and remanded the review to the Department on June 1, 2007, with instructions that the Department “make a determination consistent with the decision of this Panel to the effect that the evidence on the record does not support a finding of likelihood of recurrence or continuation of dumping upon revocation of the antidumping duty order.” *See In the Matter of: Oil Country Tubular Goods from Mexico; Final Results of Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order* , USA-MEX-2001-1904-03 (June 1, 2007) at page 27. Consistent with the Panel's instructions, the Department issued a determination on June 11, 2007, where the Department “made a determination to the effect that the evidence on the record does not support a finding or likelihood of recurrence or continuation of dumping upon revocation of the antidumping duty order.” *See Fifth Redetermination on Remand, Oil Country Tubular Goods from Mexico: Sunset Review* , (June 11, 2007) at page 2. On July 19, 2007, the Panel affirmed the Department's fifth remand redetermination. *See NAFTA Final Decision* . The Panel issued its Notice of Final Panel Action on July 30, 2007. In *Timken* , the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant to section 516A(e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”), the Department must publish a notice of a court decision that is not “in harmony” with a Department determination, and must suspend liquidation of entries pending a “conclusive” court decision. *Timken* , 393 F.2d at 341. Because NAFTA panels step into the shoes of the courts they are replacing, they must apply the law of the national court that would otherwise review the administrative determination. Therefore, we are publishing notice that the Panel's Notice of Final Panel Action and its *NAFTA Final Decision* are not in harmony with the Department's *Final Results* . This notice is published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of *Timken* . Accordingly, the Department will continue the suspension of liquidation of the subject merchandise pending the expiration of the period for requesting an Extraordinary Challenge Committee (“ECC”). If an ECC request is not filed, or if an ECC request is filed, and the Panel's decision is upheld, the Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to liquidate the subject merchandise without regard to dumping duties. This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 516A(c)(1) of the Act. Dated: August 21, 2007. David M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc.

Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period deadline identified. II. Background A. What Action is the Agency Taking? Under section 4 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA is reevaluating existing pesticides to ensure that they meet current scientific and regulatory standards. Using a modified, streamlined version of its public participation process, EPA has completed a RED for the low risk pesticide, sodium carbonate, weak mineral bases under section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA. Sodium carbonate is registered as an active ingredient fungicide that is used as a neutralizer and buffering agent in industrial and manufacturing processes. In addition, sodium carbonate is used as a hard surface disinfectant and sanitizer in institutional and residential settings. EPA has determined that the data base to support reregistration is substantially complete and that products containing sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases will be eligible for reregistration. Upon submission of any required product specific data under section 4(g)(2)(B) and any necessary changes to the registration and labeling (either to address any concerns identified in the RED or as a result of product specific data), EPA will make a final reregistration decision under section 4(g)(2)(C) for products containing sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases. EPA is applying the principles of public participation to all pesticides undergoing reregistration and tolerance reassessment. The Agency's Pesticide Tolerance Reassessment and Reregistration; Public Participation Process, published in the ** Federal Register** on May 14, 2004, (69 FR 26819) (FRL-7357-9) explains that in conducting these programs, the Agency is tailoring its public participation process to be commensurate with the level of risk, extent of use, complexity of issues, and degree of public concern associated with each pesticide. EPA can expeditiously reach decisions for pesticides like sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases, which pose no risk concerns, have low use, affect few if any stakeholders, and require no risk mitigation. Once EPA assesses uses and risks for such low risk pesticides, the Agency may go directly to a decision and prepare a document summarizing its findings, such as the sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases RED. The reregistration program is being conducted under Congressionally mandated time frames, and EPA recognizes the need both to make timely decisions and to involve the public in finding ways to effectively mitigate pesticide risks. Sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases, however, poses no risks that require mitigation. The Agency therefore is issuing the sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases RED, its risk assessments, and related support materials simultaneously for public comment. The comment period is intended to provide an opportunity for public input and a mechanism for initiating any necessary amendments to the RED. All comments should be submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES , and must be received by EPA on or before the closing date. These comments will become part of the Agency Docket for sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases. Comments received after the close of the comment period will be marked “late.” EPA is not required to consider these late comments. EPA will carefully consider all comments received by the closing date and will provide a Response to Comments Memorandum in the Docket and regulations.gov. If any comment significantly affects the document, EPA also will publish an amendment to the RED in the **Federal Register** . In the absence of substantive comments requiring changes, the sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases RED will be implemented as it is now presented. B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action? Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA as amended directs that, after submission of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient, “the Administrator shall determine whether pesticides containing such active ingredient are eligible for reregistration,” before calling in product specific data on individual end-use products and either reregistering products or taking other “appropriate regulatory action.” List of Subjects Environmental protection, Pesticides and pests, sodium carbonate; weak mineral bases.

Background In May 2000, EPA published its Final Regulatory Determination on Wastes From the Combustion of Fossil Fuels (65 FR 32214). The Agency concluded that these wastes do not warrant regulation under Subtitle C of RCRA and, therefore, retained the hazardous waste exemption of RCRA section 3001(b)(3)(C). We also determined, however, that national regulations under Subtitle D of RCRA were appropriate for coal combustion wastes (referred to as CCW throughout this notice) when disposed of in landfills or surface impoundments. 1 1 In addition, EPA determined that regulations under Subtitle D of RCRA and/or modifications to the existing regulations established under authority of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA) were appropriate when these wastes are used to fill surface or underground coal mines. As recommended in a recent National Academy of Sciences Report entitled, “Managing Coal Combustion Residues in Mines,” National Research Council of the National Academies, 2006, EPA will be collaborating with the U.S. Department of Interior, Office of Surface Mining

(OSM)to develop national standards for the placement of CCW in coal mines. A separate notice was issued by OSM regarding this effort (see 72 FR 12026, March 14, 2007; available at *http://a257.g.akamaitech.net/7/257/2422/01jan20071800/edocket.access.gpo.gov/2007/pdf/E7-4669.pdf).* Specifically, EPA's determination to develop regulations under Subtitle D of RCRA was based on a factual record developed prior to 1995 which led to the following considerations:

(i)The constituents present in these wastes include metals, such as arsenic, cadmium, chromium, lead and mercury, that could present a danger to human health and the environment under certain conditions;

(ii)while testing of the CCW using the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure

(TCLP)rarely exceeds the hazardous waste toxicity characteristic (or TC), the Agency identified eleven documented cases of proven damages 2 to human health and/or the environment by improper management of these wastes in landfills and surface impoundments;

(iii)at the time the Regulatory Determination was made, between 40 and 70 percent of CCW disposal sites lacked controls, such as liners and/or ground water-monitoring; and

(iv)while there had been substantive improvements in state regulatory programs, the Agency also identified gaps in state oversight. In deciding to pursue Subtitle D in lieu of Subtitle C regulation, the decisive factors which guided the Agency's thinking at that time included the improving trends in disposal and utilization practices, and the current and potential utilization of the wastes, which the Agency believes it should encourage. 2 Per the May 2000 Regulatory Determination, 65 FR 32224 and Section 1.4.4 of the 1999 Report to Congress, proven damage cases are those with

(i)documented exceedances of primary MCLs or other health-based standards measured in ground water at sufficient distance from the waste management unit to indicate that hazardous constituents have migrated to the extent that they could cause human health concerns, and/or

(ii)where a scientific study demonstrates there is documented evidence of another type of damage to human health or the environment (e.g., ecological damage), and/or

(iii)where there has been an administrative ruling or court decision with an explicit finding of specific damage to human health or the environment. In cases of co-management of CCWs with other industrial waste types, CCWs must be clearly implicated in the reported damage. B. Additional Information on Management of CCW in Landfills and Surface Impoundments Since EPA issued the 2000 Regulatory Determination, which was based on information collected prior to 1995, additional information and data have become available that we believe should be considered as part of the Agency's evaluation regarding the development of regulations under Subtitle D of RCRA for CCW. Therefore, today's Notice of Data Availability

(NODA)is soliciting public comment on how, if at all, the following additional information and data should affect the Agency's decisions as it continues to follow-up on its Regulatory Determination for CCW disposed of in landfills and surface impoundments:

(1)A joint U.S. Department of Energy

(DOE)and EPA report entitled, *Coal Combustion Waste Management at Landfills and Surface Impoundments, 1994-2004;*

(2)a draft risk assessment conducted by EPA on the management of CCW in landfills and surface impoundments; and

(3)EPA's recently completed damage case assessment. EPA is also seeking direct comment on the draft risk assessment document to help inform a planned peer review. In addition, the Agency is also including in the docket to today's NODA a February 2004 Petition for Rulemaking submitted by the Clean Air Task Force and the Hoosier Environmental Council, jointly with a number of citizens' groups to Prohibit the Placement or Disposal of CCW into Groundwater and Surface Water; and two suggested approaches for managing CCW in landfills and surface impoundments. One approach is a Voluntary Action Plan that was formulated by the electric utility industry through their trade association, the Utility Solid Waste Activities Group (USWAG). 3 The second approach is a proposed framework prepared by a number of citizens' groups 4 for federal regulation of CCW disposed of in landfills and surface impoundments under Subtitle D of RCRA generated by U.S. coal-fired power plants. The Agency is making these documents available in the Docket to allow all interested parties to be aware of the various documents that EPA will consider as it continues to follow up on its Regulatory Determination for CCW disposed of in landfills and surface impoundments. 5 3 USWAG members include approximately 80 utility companies, the Edison Electric Institute (EEI), the Natural Rural Electric Association (NRECA), the American Public Power Association (APPA), and the American Gas Association

(AGA)and represent more than 85% of total U.S. electric generating capacity. 4 The proposed framework was jointly prepared by Earthjustice, Clean Air Task Force, Environmental Integrity Project, Sierra Club, Natural Resources Defense Council, Waterkeeper Alliance, Hoosier Environmental Council, Public Citizen, Jefferson Action Group, Dine CARE, Army for a Clean Environment, Plains Justice, Appalachian Center for the Economy and the Environment, People in Need of Environmental Safety, Valley Watch, West Virginia Highlands Conservancy, Montana Environmental Information Center, San Juan Citizens Alliance, Clean Wisconsin, Residents Against the Power Plant, Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition, Neighbors for Neighbors, Delaware Riverkeeper Network, Healthlink, Wenham Lake Watershed Association, Coal River Mountain Watch, Dakota Resource Council and Save Us From Future Environmental Risks. 5 In addition, the Agency is also placing in the docket to today's NODA comments that the Clean Air Task Force and the Hoosier Environmental Council submitted to EPA as Attachment 1 to a July 12, 2005 letter to Thomas P. Dunne, then Acting Assistant Administrator for the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) on the electric utility industry's Voluntary Action Plan. These documents are available for review and downloading through the docket for today's action (see the ADDRESSES section above for instructions on accessing this information from the docket). The remainder of this notice briefly describes the various documents that are being made available for review and/or comment. 1. DOE/EPA Report In reaching its determination in May 2000 to develop national Subtitle D regulations under RCRA for the management of CCW in landfills and surface impoundments, the Agency generally relied on information and data on industry practices that were available prior to 1995. For information on industry practices, the Agency based its Regulatory Determination on information contained in a report prepared by the Electric Power Research Institute

(EPRI)6 addressing waste management units that were constructed between 1985 and 1995. The Agency, however, recognized that the electric utility industry was changing its management practices. Therefore, in 2005, DOE and EPA conducted a joint study to collect more recent information on CCW management practices by the electric power industry. Specifically, this report presents information and data on CCW disposal practices and state regulatory requirements at landfills and surface impoundments that were permitted, built, or laterally expanded between January 1, 1994, and December 31, 2004. 7 The scope of the study excluded waste units that manage CCW in active or abandoned coal mines. 6 Coal Combustion By-Products and Low-Volume Wastes Co-management Survey, Draft Report, EPRI, June 1997. 7 A draft of this report was peer reviewed by the Association of State and Territorial Solid Waste Management Officials (ASTSWMO), the Utility Water Act Group (UWAG), and the Clean Air Task Force (CATF). Comments received on the draft report, which are included in the docket to today's NODA, have been considered and addressed by DOE and EPA in the final report entitled, *Coal Combustion Waste Management at Landfills and Surface Impoundments, 1994-2004.* Data in the report on recent and current disposal practices were derived from a survey conducted by USWAG of its members. In addition, EPA supplemented and checked the accuracy of this information by directly contacting state agencies, as well as a limited number of individual electric utilities. In summary, the report shows an increase in the number of CCW disposal units with respect to liner design and ground water monitoring since 1994. Based on 100% member-response to USWAG's survey, plus EPA's fact-finding efforts, the report identified 56 new CCW management units, of which 38 are landfills, and 18 are surface impoundments. This number, however, does not reflect the total number of new CCW disposal units that were permitted, built or laterally expanded between 1994 and 2004. The study utilized proxy data to derive an estimate of the total number of new units. The first proxy was the tonnage of CCW available for disposal in States that have coal-fired power plant capacity, and the second was the coal-fired generating capacity of electric utilities owning the identified disposal units. The estimated net disposable CCW 8 in the 19 states where new units were identified was then compared with the total net disposable CCW in all states with coal-fired electric generating capacity. Using this approach, it was estimated that the number of identified new CCW management units represents between 64% and 71%, respectively, of the total number of new units established between 1994 and 2004. 8 Net disposable CCW is the total CCW generated minus CCW beneficially used. The report identified that the use of liners and ground water monitoring at new landfills and surface impoundments built since 1994 has increased with 98% having liners and 91% having ground water monitoring. This compares with liners installed in 75% of landfills and 60% of surface impoundments built between 1985 and 1995; and with ground water monitoring installed at 88% of landfills and 65% of surface impoundments that were established between 1985 and 1995. In addition, the frequency of dry handling in landfills appears to have increased, compared to wet handling in surface impoundments; approximately two-thirds of the new units are landfills, while the other one-third are surface impoundments. The Agency solicits comments and information on the amount or percentage of CCW that is expected to be managed in the future in landfills as opposed to surface impoundments. The percentage of composite liners has also increased for landfills from about 10%, as reported in the 1999 Report to Congress

(RTC)9 to 53% for new units constructed between 1994 and 2004, and for surface impoundments, from 2% as reported in the 1999 RTC to 50% for new units constructed between 1994 and 2004. The number of unlined units currently in operation in the U.S. is not known. The DOE/EPA 2006 Report also provides information from a review of eleven States' CCW programs, including the regulatory designation of CCW for disposal, permitting requirements, liner requirements, ground water-monitoring requirements, and leachate collection requirements. 9 Wastes from the Combustion of Fossil Fuels, Volume 2: Methods, Findings and Recommendations, EPA-R-99-010, 1999 available at *http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/other/fossil/volume_2.pdf.* The Agency requests comments with supporting data on how the findings of the DOE/EPA report should affect the Agency's decision regarding the regulation of CCW in landfills and surface impoundments under RCRA Subtitle D. 2. EPA's Risk Analysis Data As part of the rulemaking process for making the May 2000 Regulatory Determination for CCW, EPA prepared a draft quantitative risk assessment. However, because time constraints precluded the Agency from addressing public comments on the draft study, EPA did not use the draft risk assessment in making its Regulatory Determination; rather it relied on the damage cases identified. Between 2000 and 2006, EPA addressed pubic comments and updated the risk assessment for the management of CCW in landfills and surface impoundments. The purpose of the risk assessment is to identify CCW constituents, waste types, liner type, receptors, and exposure pathways with potential risks and to provide information that EPA can use as it continues to follow-up on its Regulatory Determination for CCW disposed of in landfills and surface impoundments. The risk assessment was designed to develop national human and ecological risk estimates that are representative of onsite CCW management settings throughout the United States. 10 10 Because the main technical aspects of the CCW risk assessment were completed in calendar year 2003, the newly collected information from the DOE/EPA report on the 56 new waste management units has not been incorporated into the database utilized for the risk assessment. To assess the risks posed by the onsite management of CCW, this risk assessment estimates the release of CCW constituents from landfills and surface impoundments, estimates the concentrations of these contaminants in environmental media surrounding coal-fired utility power plants, and estimates the risks that these concentrations pose to human and ecological receptors. The risk assessment does not address risks that may be due to direct discharges of CCW pollutants to surface waters, which are covered under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program. The risk analysis includes a full-scale Monte Carlo analysis; however, constituent screening results also are presented as part of the problem formulation discussion, along with a summary of the screening methodology. The full-scale analysis is designed to characterize five waste management scenarios that are defined by two waste management options (CCW disposal at power plant sites in landfills and surface impoundments) and three waste types, as follows: • Conventional CCW, including fly ash, bottom ash, boiler slag, and flue gas desulfurization

(FGD)sludge, which are typically co-disposed in landfills and surface impoundments; • CCW co-disposed with coal refuse in landfills and surface impoundments, which can result in more acidic disposal conditions than conventional CCW monofills; and, • Fluidized-bed combustion

(FBC)wastes, including fly ash and bed ash. FBC wastes differ from conventional wastes because the limestone mixed during fluidized bed combustion tends to make the FBC waste more alkaline. FBC wastes are only disposed of in landfills in the United States and therefore, the Agency did not model the management of FBC wastes in surface impoundments. These three waste types provide a good representation of waste disposal practices and the waste chemical conditions that impact the release of CCW constituents from landfills and surface impoundments. To identify the CCW constituents and exposure pathways to be addressed in this risk analysis, the Agency relied on a 2003 CCW database assembled over several years to characterize whole waste and waste leachate from CCW disposal sites across the country. The 2003 CCW constituent database includes all of the CCW characterization data used by EPA in its previous risk assessments supplemented with additional data collected from public comments, data from EPA regions and state regulatory agencies, industry submittals, and literature searches. Also, as noted in footnote 10, because the main technical aspects of the CCW risk assessment were completed in 2003, the newly collected information from the more recent DOE/EPA report on the 56 new waste units established between 1994 and 2004 was not part of the database used in characterizing the CCW landfills and surface impoundments modeled in the risk assessment. The risk assessment reflected management of CCW in both lined and unlined units as part of a Monte Carlo probabilistic risk analysis. Information on lined and unlined units was derived from facility data from a 1995 industry survey. Specific findings of the risk assessment, from the Monte Carlo analyses of both lined and unlined units, include: • The 90th and 50th percentile risks for those units (both landfill and surface impoundments) that had a composite liner were below a cancer risk of 10- 5 and an HQ of 1 for all constituents, waste management scenarios, and exposure pathways modeled in the CCW risk assessment. • For humans exposed via the ground water to drinking water pathway, arsenic and thallium show risks to human health above the risk criteria for unlined and clay-lined CCW landfills. Arsenic poses a 90th percentile cancer risk of 5 × 10 −4 > for unlined units and 2 × 10−4 for clay-lined units (The 90th percentile arsenic cancer risk from this risk assessment of landfilled CCW falls within the range that EPA established for the arsenic MCL (i.e., 1 to 6 excess cancers in a population of 10,000 individuals)). Thallium shows a 90th percentile noncancer HQ of 3 for unlined units only. The 50th percentile results for this pathway are at or below the risk criteria for all constituents. 11 Other landfill constituents did not show a noncancer risk above an HQ of 1 or risk level of 1 chance in 100,000 excess cancer risk. 11 The risk analysis presents the correspnding 50th percentile results from the Monte Carlo analyses. • Risks are higher for surface impoundments for the groundwater-to-drinking-water pathway, with a 90th percentile arsenic cancer risk of 9×10− 3 for unlined units and 3×10− 3 for clay-lined units. For unlined units, five additional constituents have noncancer HQs ranging from 3 to 5 for the 90th percentile, including boron, lead, cadmium, cobalt, and molybdenum. Two constituents (boron

(2)and molybdenum (3)) have HQs greater than 1 for clay-lined surface impoundments. The 50th percentile cancer risk results for arsenic are 3×10− 4 in unlined units and 9×10− 5 in clay lined surface impoundments. • For arsenic, arrival times of the peak concentrations at a receptor well are relatively long for CCW landfills, with travel times ranging from hundreds to thousands of years. Arrival times are much shorter for surface impoundments, with time to peak concentrations being less than 100 years for most of the model runs. • For humans exposed via the groundwater-to-surface-water (fish consumption) pathway, selenium (HQ = 2) and arsenic (cancer risk = 2×10− 5 ) show 90th percentile risks for unlined surface impoundments above the risk criteria. All other waste management scenarios and all 50th percentile results show risks at or below the risk criteria for the fish consumption pathway. • Liners appear to reduce risks from all constituents for landfills and surface impoundments. The risks from clay-lined units (as modeled in the risk assessment) were reduced by about half when compared to unlined units. Composite liners appear to be effective in mitigating CCW risks from landfills and surface impoundments. • For ecological receptors exposed via surface water, the 90th percentile risks for unlined and clay-lined landfills exceed an HQ of 1 for boron

(200)and lead (4). For surface impoundments, 90th percentile risks for six constituents: boron (2000), lead (20), arsenic (10), selenium (10), cobalt (5), and barium

(2)exceed an HQ of 1. The only exceedance from the 50th percentile risk results is HQ of 4 for boron in surface impoundments. • For ecological receptors exposed via sediment, 90th percentile risks for lead, arsenic, and cadmium exceeded an HQ of 1 for both landfills (HQs from 2 to 20) and surface impoundments (HQs from 20 to 200). All 50th percentile results show ecological risks at or below the risk criteria for the sediment pathway. The Agency is making the risk analysis document available in the Docket to allow interested parties to submit comments on the analytical methodology, data, and assumptions used in the analysis and to submit additional information for the Agency to consider. In addition, the risk assessment will undergo independent scientific peer review by experts outside of the EPA following closure of the public comment period. Public comments will be made available to the peer reviewers for their consideration during the review process. The peer review will focus on technical aspects of the analysis, including the construct and implementation of the Monte Carlo analysis, the selection of models to estimate the release of constituents found in CCW from landfills and surface impoundments, and their subsequent fate and transport in the environment, and the characterization of risks resulting from potential exposures to human and ecological receptors. 3. EPA Damage Case Assessment For the May 2000 Regulatory Determination, the Agency determined there were approximately 300 CCW landfills and 300 CCW surface impoundments used by 440 coal-fired utilities. EPA recently completed an assessment of possible environmental damages from CCW landfills and surface impoundments. Under the Bevill Amendment for the “special waste” categories, EPA was statutorily required to examine “documented cases in which danger to human health or the environment has been proved.” The criteria used to determine whether danger to human health and the environment has been proved are briefly described in footnote 2 to this NODA and more fully explained in the May 2000 Regulatory Determination at 65 FR 32224. EPA has gathered or received information on 135 possible damage cases. Sixteen of these were submitted since publication of the 2000 Regulatory Determination. EPA re-evaluated the old damage cases and evaluated the new cases, and they are available in the docket to today's action and subject to comment as part of the NODA. After reviewing these 135 damage cases, EPA identified 24 proven damage cases. Sixteen were determined to be proven damages to ground water and eight were determined to be proven damages to surface water and covered by the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) under the Clean Water Act. 12 The overwhelming majority of the damage cases reflect management in unlined units—that is, all but one of the 24 proven damage cases involved unlined CCW management units, 13 including six cases involving disposal of CCW in unlined sand and gravel pits. Additionally, 43 cases were determined to be potential damages to ground water or surface water. 14 Four of the potential damage cases were attributable to oil combustion wastes. 12 Of the 24 damage cases, 11 were presented and discussed in the May 2000 Regulatory Determination. 13 The lone damage case from a lined unit was the result of a liner failure in a surface impoundment. 14 Per the May 2000 Regulatory Determination, 65 FR 32224, potential damage cases are those with

(1)documented exceedances of primary MCLs or other health-based standards only directly beneath or in very close proximity to the waste source, and/or

(2)documented exceedances of secondary MCLs or other non-health-based standards on-site or off-site. Six of the alleged damage cases were minefills which, while under the scope of the 2000 Regulatory Determination, are outside the scope of this NODA that deals exclusively with surface disposal. 15 The remaining 62 alleged damage cases subject to detailed assessment were not considered damage cases due to either

(1)lack of any evidence of damage, or

(2)lack of evidence that damages were uniquely associated with CCW. 15 See Footnote 1 regarding OSM's ANPR (72 FR 12026). Of the 16 proven cases of damages to ground water, the Agency has been able to confirm that corrective actions have been completed in six cases and are ongoing in nine cases. The Agency has not received information regarding the one remaining case. Corrective action measures at these CCW management units vary depending on site specific circumstances and include formal closure of the unit, capping, the installation of new liners, ground water treatment, ground water monitoring, and combinations of these measures. For a more detailed description, see the document CCW_Damage_Case_Assessments.pdf in the docket to today's action. Detailed information on many of these sites is also available in the docket for the 1999 Report to Congress, Docket ID # EPA-HQ-RCRA-1999-0022. The Agency solicits comments and supporting information on the extent to which the damage case information should affect the Agency's decisions regarding the regulation of CCW in landfills and surface impoundments under RCRA Subtitle D. 4. Additional Documents In addition to the reports identified under

(1)to

(3)above, the Agency is also including in the docket to today's NODA a February 2004 Petition for Rulemaking submitted by the Clean Air Task Force and the Hoosier Environmental Council, jointly with a number of citizens' groups to Prohibit the Placement or Disposal of CCW into Groundwater and Surface Water; and two suggested approaches for managing CCW in landfills and surface impoundments. One approach is a Voluntary Action Plan that was formulated by the electric utility industry through their trade association, USWAG, regarding the management of CCW. The second approach is a proposed framework prepared by a number of citizens' groups for federal regulation of CCW disposed of in landfills and surface impoundments under Subtitle D of RCRA generated by U.S. coal-fired power plants. C. Conclusion The Agency solicits comments on the extent to which the damage case information, the results of the risk assessment, and the new liner and ground water monitoring information should affect the Agency's decisions. The Agency will consider all the information provided through today's notice, the comments and new information submitted on this notice, as well as the results of the peer review of the risk assessment as it continues to follow-up on its Regulatory Determination for CCW disposed of in landfills and surface impoundments.

Collagen-Induced Platelet Aggregation Inhibitor From Mosquito Salivary Glands *Description of Technology:* Exposed collagen in injured blood vessels provides a substrate for platelets to adhere and aggregate initiating the first step in thrombosis, the formation of blood clots inside a blood vessel. Despite the essential role of platelets in vascular injury, excessive platelet aggregation may also result in thrombotic diseases such as stroke and heart attack. Available for licensing is a collagen binding protein, named aegyptin, which selectively inhibits collagen-platelet aggregation, but not platelet aggregation induced by other agonists. Collagen initiates recruitment of circulating platelets and triggers platelet activation. Collagen also plays a critical role in angiogenesis. Aegyptin blocks the interaction of collagen with its major ligands, von Willebrand factor, glycoprotein VI (GPVI), and integrin α2β1. These three ligands are of particular importance because von Willebrand factor plays a critical role in tethering platelets to collagen, GPVI is the major signaling platelet receptor, and integrin α2β1 mediates platelet adhesion and contributes to activation. Since these ligands play a critical role in the early stages of thrombus formation, aegyptin represents a potentially highly effective therapeutic that can prevent and treat patients with thrombotic disease. Alternatively, aegyptin is potentially useful in conditions where collagen plays a critical role in angiogenesis or in conditions where excessive deposition of collagen plays a pathological role (e.g. pancreatic carcinoma). *Applications:* Adjuvant to “Clot busting” therapeutics. Method to prevent and/or treat cardiovascular/thrombotic disease. Method to treat patients undergoing invasive cardiovascular procedures ( e.g. angioplasty). Model to study collagen-dependent platelet aggregation or collagen-mediated angiogenesis. *Advantages:* Highly effective therapeutics can negatively modulate thrombosis in its early stages by preventing collagen interaction with three major ligands involved in thrombus/clot formation. Aegyptin's potential use as a prototype for drug delivery as an oral therapeutic, which can reduce the need for invasive surgeries that dilate blood vessels such as stents or catheters. *Market:* Thrombolytic/antithrombotic therapies are worth billions of dollars, common therapeutics include heparin, warfarin, and plasminogen activators. Anticancer and antiangiogenic therapies. Cardiac disease is the number one cause of death in the U.S. Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal cancers, where only 23% patients will survive after one year of diagnosis, and 4% survive after five years of diagnosis. An estimated 37,170 Americans will be newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2007. An estimated 33,370 deaths from pancreatic cancer in the U.S. in 2007. Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. *Development Status:* The technology is currently in the pre-clinical stage of development. *Inventors:* Eric Calvo *et al.* (NIAID). *Related Publications:* 1.

Bifunctional Compounds That Bind to Hormone Receptors *Description of Technology:* The development and progression of prostate cancer is dependent on the androgen receptor (AR), a ligand-dependent transcription factor. In the inactive form AR resides in the cytosolic region of the cell and when activated, AR is imported into the nucleus. Initial hormonal therapy for prostate cancer involves lowering serum levels of testosterone to shut down AR activity. Despite initial patient responses to testosterone-depleting therapies, prostate cancer becomes refractory to hormonal therapy. Notably, AR is reactivated in hormone-refractory prostate cancer and reinstates its proliferative and survival activity. Available for licensing is a novel chemical compound which is bifunctional and binds to AR. This compound is comprised of tubulin-binding and steroid receptor-binding moieties. This compound is designed to antagonize AR function in a nonclassical manner by several mechanisms and kills hormone-refractory prostate cells better than both functional moieties. This compound is a first-in-class of bifunctional steroid receptor binding agents that can antagonize steroid receptors in a variety of hormone-dependent diseases, such as breast and prostate cancer. *Applications:* Therapeutic compounds that selectively target steroid receptor-expressing cancer cells resulting in decreased toxicity. Method to treat hormone resistant prostate cancer and potentially other steroid receptor dependent diseases such as breast cancer. *Market:* Prostate cancer is the second most common type of cancer among men, wherein one in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. An estimated 218,890 new cases of prostate cancer and 27,050 deaths due to prostate cancer in the U.S. in 2007. An estimated 180,510 new cases of breast cancer and 40,060 deaths due to breast cancer in the U.S. in 2007. *Development Status:* The technology is currently in the pre-clinical stage of development. *Inventors:* Nima Sharifi *et al.* (NCI). *Patent Status:* U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/958,351 filed 03 Jul 2007 (HHS Reference No. E-163-2007/0-US-01). *Licensing Status:* Available for exclusive or non-exclusive licensing. *Licensing Contact:* Jennifer Wong; 301 435-4633; *wongje@mail.nih.gov* *Collaborative Research Opportunity:* The Medical Oncology Branch, National Cancer Institute is seeking statements of capability or interest from parties interested in collaborative research to further develop, evaluate, or commercialize treatments of resistant prostate cancer.

Specific Binding Agents for KSHV vIL-6 That Neutralize a Biological Activity *Description of Technology:* Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpes virus

(KSHV)is an oncogenic herpes virus originally identified in AIDS associated Kaposi's sarcoma

(KS)lesions, the most common tumor associated with HIV infection. KSHV encodes various proteins that have characteristics associated with cellular growth and transformation, including viral

(v)IL-6 (KSHV vIL-6). These viral proteins display structural homology to their cellular counterparts, and human and vIL-6 are multifunctional cytokines that have been shown to induce vascular endothelial growth factor and other factors. Available for licensing are binding agents that neutralize vIL-6 biological activities, methods of diagnosing and treating KSHV disorders, and methods to monitor KSHV patient response to treatment. Deregulation of cellular IL-6 expression is known to contribute to tumor development, suggesting that KSHV-derived vIL-6 could be part of a viral strategy to promote malignant transformation. Neutralizing activity of anti-vIL-6 antibodies may provide a potential therapeutic for KSHV disorders such as HIV, Castleman's disease, and primary effusion lymphoma. *Applications:* Therapeutic compositions to treat KSHV disorders such as KS, Castleman's disease, and primary effusion lymphoma. Method to diagnose and treat KSHV disorders. Method to monitor patient response to KSHV treatment. *Market:* Approximately 476,095 persons currently living with HIV/AIDS in the United States. Estimated annual incidence rate for KS is 5 cases per 100,000/year in the U.S.; KS contributes to approximately 30% of AIDS related deaths. *Development Status:* The technology is currently in the pre-clinical stage of development. *Inventors:* Giovanna Tosato

Interferon Alpha Hybrids *Description of Technology:* Available for licensing are hybrid interferon alpha (INF-α) polypeptides constructed by combinations of INFα21b and INFα2c, and mutants of these hybrids. These hybrid constructs have resulted in novel IFNs that either combine different biological properties from the parent proteins or have significantly different biological activity from both the parents in anti-proliferative, anti-viral, or competitive binding properties. For instance, the hybrid designated HY-3 has higher anti-proliferative activity in Daudi, WISH, and primary human lymphocyte cells exhibiting approximately 6 times higher anti-proliferative activity than either parent IFN. These IFN hybrids provide a powerful tool for studying the structure-function relationship of these molecules. The engineered IFN-α proteins may have important new therapeutic applications and may provide greater insights into understanding of the clinical activities of existing IFN-αs. Also available for licensing are hybrid INF-α nucleic acids encoding the hybrid polypeptides as well as cells, vectors, pharmaceutical compositions with these nucleic acid sequences. *Applications:* Anti-viral and cancer therapeutics. Research tool to study IFN-α functions. *Market:* Interferon alpha market was worth $2.1 billion in 2005.

ACTION: Notice of intent to amend the 1988 Pocatello Resource Management Plan. SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the Bureau of Land Management

(BLM)proposes to amend the 1988 Pocatello Resource Management Plan

(RMP)pursuant to the regulations at 43 CFR Part 1600, with respect to management of 400 acres of Federal land in Bannock County, Idaho. Upon publication of this notice in the **Federal Register,** the lands will be segregated from all other forms of appropriation under the public land laws, including the general mining laws, except for conveyance under the Recreation and Public Purposes Act and leasing under the mineral leasing laws. Interested parties may submit written comments and recommendations regarding the land use plan amendment. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. *Comments:* Interested parties may submit comments as to whether the land is physically suited for landfill purposes, whether the use will maximize the future use or uses of the land, whether the land use is consistent with local planning and zoning, or if the use is consistent with State and Federal programs. DATES: Comments will be accepted regarding the Plan Amendment, for a period of 30 days, or until September 28, 2007. ADDRESSES: Send written comments to: David Pacioretty, Pocatello Field Manager, 4350 Cliffs Drive, Pocatello, Idaho 83201.

The County of Bannock has submitted an application to acquire these public lands near the community of Pocatello, Bannock County, Idaho to expand their existing landfill, known as the Fort Hall Mine Landfill. This site is expected to reach capacity by the year 2010. The lands applied for are not needed for Federal purposes and lie adjacent to the existing landfill. The 1988 RMP did not identify these lands for transfer out of public ownership but stated that land disposals would be considered through plan amendments where unforeseen needs are identified. The plan also reflected BLM policy of that time in stating that BLM would no longer lease or patent land for landfill purposes under R&PP Act because of the liability associated with hazardous waste disposals. BLM policy later changed as the R&PP Act was amended by Congress to allow public land to be conveyed for landfill purposes without the customary reversionary clause required for R&PP patents.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This investigation was instituted on May 10, 2007, based upon a complaint filed on behalf of Tate & Lyle Technology Ltd. of London, United Kingdom (“Tate & Lyle”) on April 6, 2007 and supplemented on April 13, 18, 23, and 25. 72 FR 26645 (May 10, 2007). The complaint alleged a violation of subsection (a)(1)(B) of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of certain sucralose, sweeteners containing sucralose, and related intermediate compounds thereof by reason of infringement of various claims of United States Patent Nos. 5,470,969; 5,034,551; 4,980,463; 5,498,709; and 7,049,435. JK moved to intervene as a respondent in the investigation. JK asserted before the ALJ that it is a manufacturer of sucralose with its principal place of business at No. 118 Renming East Road, Sheyang County, Jiangsu 224300, P.R. China. According to JK, two of the named respondents, Beijing Forbest Chemical Co., Ltd. and Forbest International USA L.L.C., are customers of sucralose manufactured by JK. JK asserted that the complainant seeks relief which could apply directly to JK, including relief specific to its customers and general relief prohibiting the importation of infringing sucralose. Tate & Lyle opposed this motion. The Commission investigative attorney agreed with JK. The ALJ granted the motion, finding that it was timely, that JK has neither requested, nor will require, an extension of the target date, that JK has an interest relating to the subject matter of the investigation, that JK's interests are not adequately represented by any of the named parties, that JK's motion will not prejudice any of the existing parties, and that there is good cause to grant JK's motion to intervene. No petitions for review of the subject ID have been filed. Having reviewed the relevant portions of the record, the Commission has determined not to review the subject ID. This action is taken under the authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and of §§ 210.19 and 210.42(h)(3) of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.19, 210.42(h)(3)).

Your comments should address one or more of the following four points: —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 agencies, estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; —Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 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 submission of responses. Overview of this information:

(1)*Type of information collection:* New collection.

(2)*Title of the Form/Collection:* Identity Theft Supplement

(ITS)to the National Crime Victimization Survey.

(3)*Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the department sponsoring the collection:* ITS-1. Bureau of Justice Statistics, Office of Justice Programs, Department of Justice.

(4)*Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract.* Primary: Persons 16 years or older in NCVS sampled households in the United States. The Identity Theft Supplement

(ITS)to the National Crime Victimization Survey collects, analyzes, publishes, and disseminates statistics on the prevalence, economic cost, and consequences of identity theft on victims.

(5)*An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply:* Approximately 62,730 persons 18 years of age or older will complete an ITS interview. The majority of respondents, approximately 58,970 will be administered only the screening portion of the ITS which is designed to filter out those people who have not been victims of repetitive harassing or unwanted contacts and therefore are not eligible to continue with the remainder of the supplement questions. We estimate the average length of the ITS interview for these individuals will be 0.05 hours (three minutes). The complement of this group of respondents are those who had such experienced identity theft. According to the estimates by the Federal Trade Commission, we expect about 6 percent or 3,764 of the respondents to report being a victim of identity theft during the two years preceding the interview. We estimate each of these interviews will take 0.25 hours (15 minutes) to complete.

(6)*An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection:* The total respondent burden is approximately 3,891 hours. *If additional information is required contact:* Lynn Bryant, Department Clearance Officer, United States Department of Justice, Justice Management Division, Policy and Planning Staff, United States Department of Justice, Patrick Henry Building, Suite 1600, 601 D Street, NW., Washington, DC 20530.

The application did not contain new information supporting a conclusion that the determination was erroneous, and also did not provide a justification for reconsideration of the determination that was based on either mistaken facts or a misinterpretation of facts or of the law. Therefore, dismissal of the application was issued. TA-W-61,552; The Hershey Company, Oakdale Plant, Oakdale, California (August 16, 2007). Signed at Washington, DC this 21st day of August 2007.

The negative determination was issued on June 15, 2007. The Department's Notice of determination was published in the **Federal Register** on June 28, 2007 (72 FR 35517). Workers produce silicon wafers. The negative determination was based on the Department's findings that, during the relevant period, the subject firm's sales and production of silicon wafers increased, and the subject firm did not import or shift production of silicon wafers abroad. A careful review of the administrative record shows that the subject firm increased production in order to create an inventory to satisfy existing customer orders in light of the scheduled plant closure in August 2007. In the request for reconsideration, the worker alleged that the Department misidentified the article produced at the subject firm and that foreign-produced articles have replaced domestic production. The Department has carefully reviewed the administrative record and the request for reconsideration, and has determined that the Department will conduct further investigation. Conclusion After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the U.S. Department of Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted. Signed at Washington, DC, this 22nd day of August 2007. Elliott S. Kushner, Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance. [FR Doc.

(2)compensation is payable at the augmented rate of 75 percent only if the claimant has one or more dependents as defined by the FECA (5 U.S.C. 8110);

(3)compensation may not be paid concurrently with certain benefits from other Federal Agencies, such as the Office of Personnel Management, Social Security, and the Veterans Administration (5 U.S.C. 8116);

(4)compensation must be adjusted to reflect any settlement from a third party responsible for the injury for which the claimant is being paid compensation (5 U.S.C. 8132);

(5)an individual convicted of any violation related to fraud in the application for, or receipt of, any compensation benefit, forfeits (as of the date of such conviction) any entitlement to such benefits, for any injury occurring on or before the date of conviction (5 U.S.C. 8148 (a)); and,

(6)no Federal compensation benefit can be paid to any individual for any period during which such individual is incarcerated for any felony offense (5 U.S.C. 8148 (b)(1)).

Heather C. Gottry, Acting Advisory Committee Management Officer. [FR Doc. E7-17099 Filed 8-28-07; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 7536-01-P NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION [Docket Nos. 50-324 and 50-325] Carolina Power & Light Company; Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment to Facility Operating License, Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination, and Opportunity for a Hearing The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) is considering issuance of an amendment to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-71 and DPR-62 issued to the Carolina Power & Light Company (the licensee) for operation of the Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Unit Nos. 1 and 2, located in Brunswick County, North Carolina. The proposed amendment would change the Technical Specifications related to the fuel design description and the fuel criticality methods to accommodate the transition to AREVA fuel. Before issuance of the proposed license amendment, the Commission will have made findings required by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commission's regulations. The Commission has made a proposed determination that the amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration. Under the Commission's regulations in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), section 50.92, this means that operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not

(1)Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or

(2)create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or

(3)involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. As required by 10 CFR 50.91(a), the licensee has provided its analysis of the issue of no significant hazards consideration, which is presented below: 1. Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated? Response: No. The proposed amendments revise the fuel bundle description contained in Technical Specification 4.2.1, “Fuel Assemblies,” to reflect both the existing fuel designs in use and the new AREVA NP fuel design. The change to the fuel assembly description involves a minor revision to reflect that AREVA fuel assemblies have a water channel. The proposed amendments also revise Technical Specification 4.3, “Fuel Storage,” to remove criteria specific to GNF-A fuel storage criticality methods. The criticality analysis criteria being retained in Technical Specifications 4.3.1.1 and 4.3.1.2 will continue to ensure that adequate criticality margins are maintained for new and spent fuel storage. These changes do not involve any plant modifications or operational changes that could affect system reliability, performance, or possibility of an operator error. These requested changes do not affect any postulated accident precursors, do not affect the performance of any accident mitigation systems, and do not introduce any new accident initiation mechanisms. Based on the above, the proposed amendments do not involve an increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. 2. Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated? Response: No. As previously stated, the proposed amendments revise Technical Specification fuel bundle description and fuel storage rack criticality requirements to support receipt and storage of a new fuel bundle manufactured by a different vendor. Analytic methods will continue to be used to demonstrate the criticality acceptability of fuel being stored in the new and spent fuel storage racks. As such, the proposed amendments do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. 3. Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety? Response: No. The proposed amendments incorporate an administrative revision to the Technical Specification fuel bundle description and modify the fuel storage Technical Specification requirements to remove vendor-specific nomenclature for criticality analysis criteria. Criticality analyses for new and spent fuel storage will continue to ensure compliance with fuel storage and criticality criteria described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report. Therefore, the proposed amendments do not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. The NRC staff has reviewed the licensee's analysis and, based on this review, it appears that the three standards of 10 CFR 50.92(c) are satisfied. Therefore, the NRC staff proposes to determine that the amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration. The Commission is seeking public comments on this proposed determination. Any comments received within 30 days after the date of publication of this notice will be considered in making any final determination. Normally, the Commission will not issue the amendment until the expiration of 60 days after the date of publication of this notice. The Commission may issue the license amendment before expiration of the 60-day period provided that its final determination is that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration. In addition, the Commission may issue the amendment prior to the expiration of the 30-day comment period should circumstances change during the 30-day comment period such that failure to act in a timely way would result, for example, in derating or shutdown of the facility. Should the Commission take action prior to the expiration of either the comment period or the notice period, it will publish in the **Federal Register** a notice of issuance. Should the Commission make a final No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination, any hearing will take place after issuance. The Commission expects that the need to take this action will occur very infrequently. Written comments may be submitted by mail to the Chief, Rulemaking, Directives and Editing Branch, Division of Administrative Services, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, and should cite the publication date and page number of this **Federal Register** notice. Written comments may also be delivered to Room 6D59, Two White Flint North, 11545 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland, from 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. Federal workdays. Documents may be examined, and/or copied for a fee, at the NRC's Public Document Room (PDR), located at One White Flint North, Public File Area O1 F21, 11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville, Maryland. The filing of requests for hearing and petitions for leave to intervene is discussed below. Within 60 days after the date of publication of this notice, the licensee may file a request for a hearing with respect to issuance of the amendment to the subject facility operating license and any person whose interest may be affected by this proceeding and who wishes to participate as a party in the proceeding must file a written request for a hearing and a petition for leave to intervene. Requests for a hearing and a petition for leave to intervene shall be filed in accordance with the Commission's “Rules of Practice for Domestic Licensing Proceedings” in 10 CFR Part 2. Interested persons should consult a current copy of 10 CFR 2.309, which is available at the Commission's PDR, located at One White Flint North, Public File Area O1 F21, 11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville, Maryland. Publicly available records will be accessible from the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System's (ADAMS) Public Electronic Reading Room on the Internet at the NRC Web site, *http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/cfr/.* If a request for a hearing or petition for leave to intervene is filed by the above date, the Commission or a presiding officer designated by the Commission or by the Chief Administrative Judge of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, will rule on the request and/or petition; and the Secretary or the Chief Administrative Judge of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board will issue a notice of a hearing or an appropriate order. As required by 10 CFR 2.309, a petition for leave to intervene shall set forth with particularity the interest of the petitioner in the proceeding, and how that interest may be affected by the results of the proceeding. The petition should specifically explain the reasons why intervention should be permitted with particular reference to the following general requirements:

(1)The name, address and telephone number of the requestor or petitioner;

(2)the nature of the requestor's/petitioner's right under the Act to be made a party to the proceeding;

(3)the nature and extent of the requestor's/petitioner's property, financial, or other interest in the proceeding; and

(4)the possible effect of any decision or order which may be entered in the proceeding on the requestor's/petitioner's interest. The petition must also identify the specific contentions which the petitioner/requestor seeks to have litigated at the proceeding. Each contention must consist of a specific statement of the issue of law or fact to be raised or controverted. In addition, the petitioner/requestor shall provide a brief explanation of the bases for the contention and a concise statement of the alleged facts or expert opinion which support the contention and on which the petitioner intends to rely in proving the contention at the hearing. The petitioner/requestor must also provide references to those specific sources and documents of which the petitioner is aware and on which the petitioner intends to rely to establish those facts or expert opinion. The petition must include sufficient information to show that a genuine dispute exists with the applicant on a material issue of law or fact. Contentions shall be limited to matters within the scope of the amendment under consideration. The contention must be one which, if proven, would entitle the petitioner to relief. A petitioner/requestor who fails to satisfy these requirements with respect to at least one contention will not be permitted to participate as a party. Those permitted to intervene become parties to the proceeding, subject to any limitations in the order granting leave to intervene, and have the opportunity to participate fully in the conduct of the hearing. If a hearing is requested, the Commission will make a final determination on the issue of no significant hazards consideration. The final determination will serve to decide when the hearing is held. If the final determination is that the amendment request involves no significant hazards consideration, the Commission may issue the amendment and make it immediately effective, notwithstanding the request for a hearing. Any hearing held would take place after issuance of the amendment. If the final determination is that the amendment request involves a significant hazards consideration, any hearing held would take place before the issuance of any amendment. Nontimely requests and/or petitions and contentions will not be entertained absent a determination by the Commission or the presiding officer of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board that the petition, request and/or the contentions should be granted based on a balancing of the factors specified in 10 CFR 2.309(c)(1)(I) through (c)(1)(viii). A request for a hearing or a petition for leave to intervene must be filed by:
