EMPLOYER STATUS DETERMINATION

Chesapeake Railroad Company

This is the determination of the Railroad Retirement Board

concerning the status of Chesapeake Railroad Company (CRC), as an

employer under the Railroad Retirement Act (45 U.S.C. § 231 et

sea.) (RRA) and the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act (45 U.S.C.

§351 et seg.) (RUIA).

Information regarding CRC was provided by Mr. William G. Bartosh,

President and Chief Executive Officer of CRC. According to Mr.

Bartosh CRC began doing business in January 1995 . CRC is currently

operated by volunteers. However, it plans to hire operating and

maintenance of way personnel.

In Interstate Commerce Commission Finance Docket 32609, CRC filed

a notice for a modified certificate of public convenience and

necessity to operate approximately 54 miles of rail line (Mr.

Bartosh states that the length of track in service is 29 miles)

formerly owned by the Trustees of the former Penn Central

Transportation Company. On January 8, 1982, the Trustees sold the

lines to the State of Maryland Department of Transportation, Mass

Transit Administration, which has contracted with CRC to operate

the line. The line runs between Clayton, Delaware, and Ridgely,

Maryland, and intersects with Conrail at Clayton.

The evidence of record establishes that CRC is a carrier operating

in interstate commerce. Accordingly, it is determined that CRC is

an employer with the meaning of section 1(a)(1)(i) of the Railroad

Retirement Act (45 U.S.C. § 231a(1) (i)) and corresponding provision

of the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act effective January 1,

1995, the earliest date of the month as of which it commenced

operations.

NRC SENDS SPECIAL INSPECTION TEAM TO NIST LAB IN COLORADO 

FOLLOWING REPORT OF POSSIBLE PLUTONIUM CONTAMINATION 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission inspectors have returned to the National Institute of 

Standards and Technology (NIST) laboratory at Boulder, Colo., to continue inspections aimed at 

determining the circumstances and safety consequences associated with a plutonium contamination 

event which occurred on June 9. 

 Elmo Collins, administrator of the NRC Region IV office in Arlington, Texas, said an 

expanded NRC Special Inspection Team arrived at the laboratory on Monday, June 30, to continue 

NRC review efforts which began on June 11. NIST, an NRC licensee, had reported to the NRC on 

June 10 that a plutonium source used as a reference standard had ruptured on June 9, resulting in the 

contamination of at least two workers, contamination of the laboratory, and an apparent unplanned 

discharge of some of the material into the facility’s sanitary sewage system when a worker washed 

his hands. 

“The expanded inspection activities are necessary to independently confirm on-site 

radiological conditions and to verify the adequacy of NIST actions which have been taken or are 

planned,” Collins said. “The team has not identified any conditions which pose a health threat to the 

public or the environment, and the NRC inspection team is continuing its investigation.” 

 Collins also said the NRC today issued a Confirmatory Action Letter to NIST formalizing 

actions that NIST has committed to take in response to the incident. He said that the letter specifies 

that the NIST Boulder facility will not use NRC-licensed radioactive materials until the NRC is 

satisfied that procedures and training are adequate. The letter also specifies that NIST complete a 

thorough radiation dose assessment for all individuals potentially exposed to plutonium and provide 

the results to the NRC in writing and that NIST finalize its evaluation of the amount of plutonium 

which may have been released into the sanitary sewage system and report the results to the NRC. 

NIST written plans to decontaminate the facility must be submitted to the NRC for approval before 

use.

NRC WORKSHOP OCT. 8-9 IN ROCKVILLE, MD., TO DISCUSS 

“SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED” REACTOR LICENSING 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will hold a workshop at the agency headquarters in 

Rockville, Md., on Thursday and Friday, Oct. 8 and 9, to discuss generic issues regarding potential 

applications for so-called “small and medium-sized” nuclear reactors. 

The workshop will run from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Oct. 8, and from 8:30 a.m. to noon on 

Oct. 9 in the auditorium of the NRC’s Two White Flint building at 11545 Rockville Pike in 

Rockville. The public is invited to participate with NRC staff and industry representatives 

throughout the workshop. 

“We’re going to examine how these ‘small’ reactor vendors would need to address the 

NRC’s requirements in areas including safety, security, decommissioning and emergency 

preparedness,” said Michael Mayfield, director of the Advanced Reactor Program in the NRC’s 

Office of New Reactors. “This meeting will help us and our stakeholders determine what issues need 

more clarification and get everyone’s expectations on the same page.” 

The NRC is currently focused on reviewing applications for a variety of light-water reactor 

designs similar in size to those used in current U.S. commercial nuclear power plants. Several 

reactor vendors, however, have indicated they intend to seek NRC certification for designs that are 

much smaller and in some cases could be used for applications other than producing electricity, such 

as providing heat for industrial processes. 

A teleconference line and Webinar will be available for members of the public; Webinar 

participants can view workshop presentations online, as well as take part in discussions on the 

proposal. For more information or to register for the meeting, contact Brian Wagner (301-251-7595 

or brian.wagner@nrc.gov ) or William Reckley (301-415-7490 or william.reckley@nrc.gov ).

Editorial Note on Subpart B of Part 591
Editorial Note: Nomenclature changes to subpart B of part 591 appear at 70 FR 31313, May 31, 2005.

§ 591.222 How does OPM use the expenditure weights to combine price indexes? OPM uses a three-step process to combine price indexes. ( a ) *Step 1.* For each DEC represented by one or more items for which OPM could make valid price comparisons (e.g., OPM was able to collect representative prices in both the COLA and DC areas), OPM computes the unweighted geometric average (the *nth* root of the product of *n* numbers) of the price index(es) of all item(s) representing the DEC.
( b ) *Step 2.* OPM multiplies the price index for each DEC by its expenditure weight, sums the cross products, and divides by the sum of the weights used in the calculation. This produces a price index for the level of aggregation (e.g., PEG or sub-PEG) in which the DEC is categorized.
( c ) *Step 3.* OPM repeats the process described in Step 2 at each level of aggregation within the PEG to produce a price index for the PEG, at the PEG level to produce an index for the MEG, and at the MEG level to produce the overall price index for the COLA area.

§ 1110.504 Acceptance of accredited conformity assessment bodies. ( a ) NTIS will accept written attestations and assessment reports from an Accredited Conformity Assessment Body that attests, to the satisfaction of NTIS, as provided in § 1110.503.
( b ) NTIS may decline to accept written attestations or assessment reports from an Accredited Conformity Assessment Body, whether or not it has attested as provided in § 1110.503, for any of the following reasons: ( 1 ) When it is in the public interest under Section 203 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, and notwithstanding any other provision of this part;
( 2 ) Submission of false or misleading information concerning a material fact(s) in an Accredited Conformity Assessment Body's attestation under § 1110.503;
( 3 ) Knowing submission of false or misleading information concerning a material fact(s) in an attestation or assessment report by an Accredited Conformity Assessment Body of a Person or Certified Person;
( 4 ) Failure of an Accredited Conformity Assessment Body to cooperate in response to a request from NTIS to verify the accuracy, veracity, and/or completeness of information received in connection with an attestation under § 1110.503 or an attestation or assessment report by that Body of a Person or Certified Person. An Accredited Conformity Assessment Body “fails to cooperate” when it does not respond to NTIS inquiries or requests, or it responds in a manner that is unresponsive, evasive, deceptive, or substantially incomplete; or
( 5 ) Where NTIS is unable for any reason to verify the accuracy of the Accredited Conformity Assessment Body's attestation.
