NRC MEDIA WORKSHOP SCHEDULED JUNE 24-25

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will hold a two-day workshop June 24-25 at its

headquarters in Rockville, Maryland, for news reporters covering the nuclear industry.

NRC senior managers and staff will brief participants to the extent possible on enhanced

nuclear power plant security measures, emergency preparedness, the threat of radiological

dispersal devices (“dirty bombs”), and government efforts to improve tracking and monitoring of

radioactive materials. Other sessions will cover reactor safety issues such as reactor vessel

degradation at Davis-Besse and South Texas Project; spent nuclear fuel transportation, storage

and disposal with regard to the proposed repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada; the proposed

use of mixed-oxide fuel in reactors; and the disposition of slightly contaminated materials. 

All sessions will be on the record and should be especially useful for reporters from

communities near nuclear facilities. Participants will gain valuable contacts and will receive

background materials to use for quick reference.

There is no charge for attending the workshop, but reporters must cover their own food,

transportation, and lodging expenses. A block of rooms is being held at a reasonably priced

motel in the vicinity of the NRC.

Because the size of the meeting room is limited, those interested in attending need to

contact the NRC Office of Public Affairs by June 6 at (301) 415-8200, (e-mail: opa@nrc.gov).

NRC STAFF TO MEET WITH SUMMER PLANT OFFICIALS

TO DISCUSS PIPE REPAIR PRIOR TO PLANT RESTART

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff and South Carolina Electric & Gas Company will

meet at the Summer nuclear plant near Jenkinsville, South Carolina, on January 18 at 1:00 p.m. to

discuss the repair of a flawed reactor cooling water pipe weld and tests on similar welds, pipes and

nozzles prior to the plant’s restart. The meeting had been originally scheduled for January 4, but

unanticipated delays in the repair led to a change in the schedule.

The NRC and SCE&G officials will discuss the completion of the repair, NRC special

inspection team activities, and the company’s preparations to restart the plant. The meeting is open to

observation by the public, and NRC officials will be available at its conclusion to answer any questions

from interested observers.

After the plant shut down for a scheduled refueling outage in early October, employees noticed

traces of boron, a neutron absorber used to moderate the plant’s nuclear chain reaction, beneath a large

pipe inside the containment building. This indicated leaking or “weeping” of reactor cooling water

containing the boron from the area of the pipe. Subsequent tests indicated a crack in a weld and that

section of the pipe was removed for further tests. The repairs have involved replacing that section of

pipe and welding the new piece in place.

###
§ 4.3 Vessels required to enter; place of entry. ( a ) *Formal entry required.* Unless specifically excepted by law, within 48 hours after the arrival at any port or place in the United States, the following vessels are required to make formal entry: ( 1 ) Any vessel from a foreign port or place;
( 2 ) Any foreign vessel from a domestic port;
( 3 ) Any vessel of the United States having foreign merchandise on board for which entry has not been made; or
( 4 ) Any vessel which has visited a hovering vessel as defined in 19 U.S.C. 1401(k), or has delivered or received merchandise or passengers while outside the territorial sea.
( b ) *Completion of entry.* ( 1 ) When vessel entry is to be made at the customhouse, either the master, licensed deck officer, or purser may appear in person during regular working hours to complete preliminary or formal vessel entry; or necessary documents properly executed by the master or other authorized officer may be delivered at the customhouse by the vessel agent or other personal representative of the master.
( 2 ) The appropriate CBP port director may permit the entry of vessels to be accomplished at locations other than the customhouse, and services may be requested outside of normal business hours. CBP may take local resources into consideration in allowing formal entry to be transacted on board vessels or at other mutually convenient approved sites and times within or outside of port limits. When services are requested to be provided outside the limits of a CBP port, the appropriate port director to whom an application must be submitted is the director of the port located nearest to the point where the proposed services would be provided. That port director must be satisfied that the place designated for formal entry will be sufficiently under CBP control at the time of entry, and that the expenses incurred by CBP will be reimbursed as authorized. It may be required that advance notice of vessel arrival be given as a condition for granting requests for optional entry locations. A master, owner, or agent of a vessel who desires that entry be made at an optional location will file with the appropriate port director an application on CBP Form 3171 and a single entry or continuous bond on CBP Form 301 containing the bond conditions set forth in § 113.64 of this chapter, in such amount as that port director deems appropriate but not less than $1,000. If the application is approved, the port director or a designated CBP officer will formally enter the vessel. Nothing in this paragraph relieves any person or vessel from any requirement as to how, when and where they are to report, be inspected or receive clearance from other Federal agencies upon arrival in the United States.

### §6507. Congressional review of grant programs

(a) The committees of Congress having jurisdiction over a grant program authorized by a law of the United States without a specified expiration date for the program shall study the program. The committees may conduct studies separately or jointly and shall report the results of their findings to their respective Houses of Congress not later than the end of each period specified in subsection (b) of this section. The committees shall give special attention to—

(1) the extent to which the purposes of the grants have been met;

(2) the extent to which the objective of the program can be carried on without further assistance;

(3) whether a change in the purpose, direction, or administration of the original program, or in procedures and requirements applicable to the program, should be made; and

(4) the extent to which the program is adequate to meet the growing and changing needs that it was designed to support.

(b)(1) A study under subsection (a) of this section of a grant program authorized by a law of the United States enacted before October 16, 1968, shall be conducted before the end of each 4th calendar year after the year during which a study of the program was last conducted under this section.

(2) A study under subsection (a) of this section of a grant program authorized by a law of the United States enacted after October 16, 1968, shall be conducted before the end of the 4th calendar year after the year of enactment of the law and before the end of each 4th calendar year thereafter.

| 6507(b) | 42:4241(b). | |

In the section, the words "law of the United States" are substituted for "Act of Congress" for clarity. The word "grants" is substituted for "grants-in-aid", and the words "grant program" are substituted for "grant-in-aid program", for consistency in the chapter.

In subsection (a), before clause (1), the words "grant program" are substituted for "program under which such grants-in-aid are made" for consistency in the chapter and to eliminate unnecessary words. The words "committees of Congress" are substituted for "Committee of the Senate and the House of Representatives" for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the United States Code. The words "The committees may conduct" are added for clarity. The word "report" is substituted for "advise" for clarity. In clause (2), the word "assistance" is substituted for "financial assistance from the United States" because of the definition in section 6501(1) of the revised title.

In subsection (b), the words "prior to the expiration of the fourth calendar year beginning after October 16, 1968, and thereafter" are omitted as executed.
### §595a. Compensation for taking or condemnation of property for public improvements; fair market value; partial taking; effective date

In all cases where real property shall be taken by the United States for the public use in connection with any improvement of rivers, harbors, canals, or waterways of the United States, and in all condemnation proceedings by the United States to acquire lands or easements for such improvements, the compensation to be paid for real property taken by the United States above the normal high water mark of navigable waters of the United States shall be the fair market value of such real property based upon all uses to which such real property may reasonably be put, including its highest and best use, any of which uses may be dependent upon access to or utilization of such navigable waters. In cases of partial takings of real property, no depreciation in the value of any remaining real property shall be recognized and no compensation shall be paid for any damages to such remaining real property which result from loss of or reduction of access from such remaining real property to such navigable waters because of the taking of real property or the purposes for which such real property is taken. The compensation defined herein shall apply to all acquisitions of real property after December 31, 1970, and to the determination of just compensation in any condemnation suit pending on December 31, 1970.

(Pub. L. 91–611, title I, §111, Dec. 31, 1970, 84 Stat. 1821.)
### §6301. Purposes

The purposes of this chapter are to—

(1) promote a better understanding of United States Government expenditures and help eliminate unnecessary administrative requirements on recipients of Government awards by characterizing the relationship between executive agencies and contractors, States, local governments, and other recipients in acquiring property and services and in providing United States Government assistance;

(2) prescribe criteria for executive agencies in selecting appropriate legal instruments to achieve—

(A) uniformity in their use by executive agencies;

(B) a clear definition of the relationships they reflect; and

(C) a better understanding of the responsibilities of the parties to them; and

(3) promote increased discipline in selecting and using procurement contracts, grant agreements, and cooperative agreements, maximize competition in making procurement contracts, and encourage competition in making grants and cooperative agreements.

(Pub. L. 97–258, Sept. 13, 1982, 96 Stat. 1003.)
