result of a decrease in the number of 

partnerships. OSHA will summarize the 

comments submitted in response to this 

notice, and will include this summary 

in its request to OMB to extend the 

approval of the collection of information 

requirements. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection.

II. Introduction 

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission 

(NRC or the Commission) has received, 

by letter dated November 28, 2011, a 

license amendment application from 

Anadarko Petroleum Corporation 

(Licensee) for their Bear Creek Uranium 

site located in Converse County, 

Wyoming, requesting to amend their 

existing alternate concentration limits, 

to delete License Condition 47, and to 

proceed with termination of the license 

and transfer of the facility to the U.S. 

Department of Energy. License No. 

SUA–1310 authorizes the Licensee to 

possess byproduct material resulting 

from past operations of its Bear Creek 

facility until site reclamation is 

adequate. The proposed changes in the 

existing alternate concentration limits 

are to extend the Point of Exposure 

wells to those wells at the northern 

property boundary. The elimination of 

License Condition 47 would mean that 

the Licensee would no longer be 

required to sample its wells and report 

the results to the NRC. 

An NRC administrative review, 

documented in a letter to Anadarko 

Petroleum Corporation dated January 

12, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML120100298), found the application 

acceptable to begin a technical review. 

If the NRC approves the amendment, the 

approval will be documented in an 

amendment to NRC License No. SUA– 

1310. However, before approving the 

proposed amendment, the NRC will 

need to make the findings required by 

the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 

amended, and the NRC’s regulations. 

These findings will be documented in a 

Safety Evaluation Report and an 

Environmental Assessment. 

III. Opportunity To Request a Hearing; 

Petitions for Leave To Intervene 

Within 60 days after the date of 

publication of this Federal Register 

notice, 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 with respect to the license 

amendment request. Requirements for 

hearing requests and petitions for leave 

to intervene are found in Title 10 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 

2.309, ‘‘Hearing requests, Petitions to 

Intervene, Requirements for Standing, 

and Contentions.’’ Interested persons 

should consult 10 CFR 2.309, which is 

available at the NRC’s Public Document 

Room (PDR), Room O1–F21, One White 

Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike, 

Rockville, MD 20852 (or call the PDR at 

1–800–397–4209 or 301–415–4737). The 

NRC’s regulations are available online 

in the NRC Library at http:// 

www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. 

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 petition 

for leave to intervene. 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 

must provide the name, address, and 

telephone number of the petitioner and 

specifically explain the reasons why 

intervention should be permitted with 

particular reference to the following 

factors: (1) The nature of the petitioner’s 

right under the Act to be made a party 

to the proceeding; (2) the nature and 

extent of the petitioner’s property, 

financial, or other interest in the 

proceeding; and (3) the possible effect of 

any order that may be entered in the 

proceeding on the petitioner’s interest. 

A petition for leave to intervene must 

also include a specification of the 

contentions that the petitioner seeks to 

have litigated in the hearing. For each 

contention, the petitioner must provide 

a specific statement of the issue of law 

or fact to be raised or controverted, as 

well as a brief explanation of the basis 

for the contention. Additionally, the 

petitioner must demonstrate that the 

issue raised by each contention is 

within the scope of the proceeding and 

is material to the findings the NRC must 

make to support the granting of a license 

amendment in response to the 

application. The petition must also 

include a concise statement of the 

alleged facts or expert opinions which 

support the position of the petitioner 

and on which the petitioner intends to 

rely at hearing, together with references 

to the specific sources and documents 

on which the petitioner intends to rely. 

Finally, the petition must provide 

sufficient information to show that a 

genuine dispute exists with the 

applicant on a material issue of law or 

fact, including references to specific 

portions of the application for 

amendment that the petitioner disputes 

and the supporting reasons for each 

dispute, or, if the petitioner believes 

that the application for amendment fails 

to contain information on a relevant 

matter as required by law, the 

identification of each failure and the 

supporting reasons for the petitioner’s 

belief. Each contention must be one 

that, if proven, would entitle the 

petitioner to relief. 

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 with respect to resolution of 

that person’s admitted contentions, 

including the opportunity to present 

evidence and to submit a crossexamination plan for cross-examination 

of witnesses, consistent with the NRC 

regulations, policies, and procedures. 

The Atomic Safety and Licensing Board 

will set the time and place for any 

prehearing conferences and evidentiary 

hearings, and the appropriate notices 

will be provided. 

Non-timely petitions for leave to 

intervene and contentions, amended 

petitions, and supplemental petitions 

will not be entertained absent a 

determination by the Commission, the 

Atomic Safety and Licensing Board or a 

Presiding Officer that the petition 

should be granted and/or the 

contentions should be admitted based 

upon a balancing of the factors specified 

in 10 CFR 2.309(c)(1)(i)–(viii).

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 81 / Thursday, April 26, 2012 / Notices 24995 

A State, county, municipality, 

Federally-recognized Indian tribe, or 

agencies thereof, may submit a petition 

to the Commission to participate as a 

party under 10 CFR 2.309(d)(2). The 

petition should state the nature and 

extent of the petitioner’s interest in the 

proceeding. The petition should be 

submitted to the Commission by June 

25, 2012. The petition must be filed in 

accordance with the filing instructions 

in Section IV of this document, and 

should meet the requirements for 

petitions for leave to intervene set forth 

in this section, except that State and 

Federally-recognized Indian tribes do 

not need to address the standing 

requirements in 10 CFR 2.309(d)(1) if 

the facility is located within its 

boundaries. The entities listed above 

could also seek to participate in a 

hearing as a nonparty pursuant to 10 

CFR 2.315(c). 

Any person who does not wish, or is 

not qualified, to become a party to this 

proceeding may request permission to 

make a limited appearance pursuant to 

the provisions of 10 CFR 2.315(a). A 

person making a limited appearance 

may make an oral or written statement 

of position on the issues, but may not 

otherwise participate in the proceeding. 

A limited appearance may be made at 

any session of the hearing or at any 

prehearing conference, subject to such 

limits and conditions as may be 

imposed by the Atomic Safety and 

Licensing Board. Persons desiring to 

make a limited appearance are 

requested to inform the Secretary of the 

Commission by June 25, 2012. 

IV. Electronic Submissions (E-Filing) 

All documents filed in NRC 

adjudicatory proceedings, including a 

request for hearing, a petition for leave 

to intervene, any motion or other 

document filed in the proceeding prior 

to the submission of a request for 

hearing or petition to intervene, and 

documents filed by interested 

governmental entities participating 

under 10 CFR 2.315(c), must be filed in 

accordance with the NRC E-Filing rule 

(72 FR 49139, August 28, 2007). The EFiling process requires participants to 

submit and serve all adjudicatory 

documents over the Internet, or in some 

cases to mail copies on electronic 

storage media. Participants may not 

submit paper copies of their filings 

unless they seek an exemption in 

accordance with the procedures 

described below. 

To comply with the procedural 

requirements of E-Filing, at least 10 

days prior to the filing deadline, the 

participant should contact the Office of 

the Secretary by email at 

hearing.docket@nrc.gov, or by telephone 

at 301–415–1677, to request (1) a digital 

identification (ID) certificate, which 

allows the participant (or its counsel or 

representative) to digitally sign 

documents and access the E-Submittal 

server for any proceeding in which it is 

participating; and (2) advise the 

Secretary that the participant will be 

submitting a request or petition for 

hearing (even in instances in which the 

participant, or its counsel or 

representative, already holds an NRCissued digital ID certificate). Based upon 

this information, the Secretary will 

establish an electronic docket for the 

hearing in this proceeding if the 

Secretary has not already established an 

electronic docket. 

Information about applying for a 

digital ID certificate is available on the 

NRC’s public Web site at http:// 

www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/ 

apply-certificates.html. System 

requirements for accessing the ESubmittal server are detailed in the 

NRC’s ‘‘Guidance for Electronic 

Submission,’’ which is available on the 

agency’s public Web site at http:// 

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 System, users 

will be required to install a Web 

browser plug-in from the NRC’s Web 

site. Further information on the Webbased submission form, including the 

installation of the Web browser plug-in, 

is available on the NRC’s public Web 

site at http://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. Submissions 

should be in Portable Document Format 

(PDF) in accordance with the NRC 

guidance available on the NRC’s public 

Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/sitehelp/e-submittals.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 EFiling system time-stamps the document 

and sends the submitter an email notice 

confirming receipt of the document. The 

E-Filing system also distributes an email 

notice that provides access to the 

document to the NRC’s 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, 

applicants and other participants (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 

the 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 

Desk through the ‘‘Contact Us’’ link 

located on the NRC’s Web site at 

http://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html, by email at 

MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov, or by a tollfree call at 1–866–672–7640. The NRC 

Meta System Help Desk is available 

between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., Eastern 

Time, Monday through Friday, 

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 

Office of the Secretary of the 

Commission, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission, Washington, DC 20555–

11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, 

Maryland, 20852, Attention:

Participants filing a document in this 

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

II. Notice of Filings 

III. Ordering Paragraphs 

I. Introduction 

In accordance with 39 U.S.C. 3642 

and 39 CFR 3020.30 et seq., the Postal 

Service filed a formal request and 

associated supporting information to 

add First-Class Package Service Contract 

1 to the Competitive Product List.1 The 

Postal Service asserts that First-Class 

Package Service Contract 1 is ‘‘a 

competitive product not of general 

applicability within the meaning of 39 

U.S.C. § 3632(b)(3).’’ Id. at 1. The 

Request has been assigned Docket No. 

MC2012–11. 

The Postal Service 

contemporaneously filed a redacted 

contract related to the proposed new 

product. Id., Attachment B. The instant 

contract has been assigned Docket No. 

CP2012–19. 

Request. To support its Request, the 

Postal Service filed the following six 

attachments: 

• Attachment A—a redacted version 

of the Governors’ Decision and 

accompanying analysis. An explanation 

and justification is provided in the 

Governors’ Decision and analysis filed 

in the unredacted version under seal; 

• Attachment B—a redacted version 

of the instant contract; 

• Attachment C—the proposed 

changes in the Mail Classification 

Schedule with the addition underlined; 

• Attachment D—a Statement of 

Supporting Justification as required by 

39 CFR 3020.32; 

• Attachment E—a certification of 

compliance with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a)(1), 

(2), and (3); and 

• Attachment F—an Application for 

Non-public Treatment of the materials 

filed under seal. The materials filed 

under seal are the unredacted version of 

the instant contract and the required 

cost and revenue data. 

In the Statement of Supporting 

Justification, Dennis R. Nicoski, 

Manager, Field Sales Strategy and 

Contracts, asserts that the instant 

contract will cover its attributable costs, 

make a positive contribution to cover 

institutional costs, and increase 

contribution toward the requisite 5.5 

percent of the Postal Service’s 

institutional costs. Id., Attachment D at 

1. Mr. Nicoski contends that there will 

be no issue of subsidization of market 

dominant products by competitive 

products as a result of the instant 

contract. Id. 

Instant contract. The Postal Service 

included a redacted version of the
