Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 161 / Friday, August 21, 2009 / Notices 42333 

required by 10 CFR 51.20(b)(8) to 

prepare an Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) or a supplement to an 

EIS for the issuance of a license to 

possess and use source material for 

uranium milling. The ISR GEIS and the 

site-specific SEIS fulfills this regulatory 

requirement. 

2.0 Moore Ranch ISR Facilities 

The facilities, if licensed, would 

include a central processing plant, 

accompanying wellfields, and ion 

exchange columns. The milling process 

involves the dissolution of the watersoluble uranium from the mineralized 

host sandstone rock by pumping 

oxidants (oxygen or hydrogen peroxide) 

and chemical compounds (sodium 

bicarbonate) through a series of 

production and extraction wells. The 

uranium-rich solution is transferred 

from the production wells to the central 

processing plant for uranium 

concentration using ion exchange 

columns. Final processing is conducted 

in the central processing plant to 

produce yellowcake for use in 

manufacturing commercial nuclear fuel 

for use in power reactors. 

3.0 Alternatives To Be Evaluated 

Alternative 1: The license review 

process analyzes the Construction, 

Operation, Aquifer Restoration, and 

Decommissioning with Disposal via 

Deep Well Injection (Proposed Action). 

The proposed federal action is to issue 

a 10 CFR Part 40 license authorizing the 

possession and use of source material at 

the proposed ISR facilities. The NRC 

staff will analyze the construction, 

operation, and decommissioning of the 

proposed ISR facilities, and the 

restoration of the aquifer from which the 

uranium would be extracted. The ISR 

facilities would be located in Campbell 

County, Wyoming, approximately 50 

miles south-southwest of Gillette, 

Wyoming and approximately 45 miles 

north-northeast of Casper, Wyoming. 

Alternative 2: No Action. The noaction alternative would be not to issue 

the license. Under this alternative, the 

NRC would not approve the license 

application for the proposed ISR 

facilities. This serves as a baseline for 

comparison. 

Other alternatives not listed here may 

be identified through the environmental 

review process. 

4.0 Environmental Impact Areas To 

Be Analyzed 

The following areas have been 

tentatively identified for analysis in the 

SEIS: 

Land Use: Plans, policies, and 

controls; 

Transportation: Transportation 

modes, routes, quantities, and risk 

estimates; 

Geology and Soils: Physical 

geography, topography, geology, and 

soil characteristics; 

Water Resources: Surface and 

groundwater hydrology, water use and 

quality, and the potential for 

degradation; 

Ecology: Wetlands, aquatic, terrestrial, 

economically and recreationally 

important species, and threatened and 

endangered species; 

Air Quality: Meteorological 

conditions, ambient background, 

pollutant sources, and the potential for 

degradation; 

Noise: Ambient, sources, and 

sensitive receptors; 

Historical and Cultural Resources: 

Historical, archaeological, and 

traditional cultural resources; 

Visual and Scenic Resources: 

Landscape characteristics, manmade 

features and viewshed; 

Socioeconomics: Demography, 

economic base, labor pool, housing, 

transportation, utilities, public services/ 

facilities, and education; 

Environmental Justice: Potential 

disproportionately high and adverse 

impacts to minority and low-income 

populations; 

Public and Occupational Health: 

Potential public and occupational 

consequences from construction, 

routine operation, transportation, and 

credible accident scenarios (including 

natural events); 

Waste Management: Types of wastes 

expected to be generated, handled, and 

stored; and 

Cumulative Effects: Impacts from 

past, present, and reasonably 

foreseeable actions at and near the 

site(s). 

This list is not intended to be all 

inclusive, nor is it a predetermination of 

potential environmental impacts. 

5.0 The NEPA Process 

The SEIS for the Moore Ranch ISR 

Project will be prepared pursuant to the 

NRC’s NEPA Regulations at 10 CFR Part 

51. The NRC and its contractor will 

prepare and publish a draft SEIS for 

comment. NRC currently plans to have 

a 45-day public comment period for the 

draft SEIS. Availability of the draft SEIS 

and the dates of the public comment 

period will be announced in the Federal 

Register and the NRC Web site: http:// 

www.nrc.gov. The final SEIS will 

include responses to public comments 

received on the draft SEIS. 

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 12th day 

of August 2009.

OFFICE OF PERSONNEL 

MANAGEMENT 

[OMB Control No. 3206–0219] 

Request for Comments on a 

Reinstatement With Change of an 

Existing Information Collection 

AGENCY: U.S. Office of Personnel 

Management. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 

L. 104–13, May 22, 1995), this notice 

announces that the U.S. Office of 

Personnel Management (OPM) intends 

to submit to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) a request for review 

of an existing information collection. 

This information collection occurs 

electronically via the USAJOBS Resume 

Builder (online application) or 

completion and submission via regular 

mail, e-mail, fax, or in person of OF 612 

Optional Form Application for Federal 

Employment or a resume. The USAJOBS 

Resume Builder and the OF 612 both 

reflect the minimal critical elements 

collected across the Federal government 

to assess an applicant’s qualifications 

for Federal jobs under the authority of 

sections 1104, 1302, 3301, 3304, 3320, 

3361 3393, and 3394 of Title 5 United 

States Code. 

This notice also announces that the 

Office of Personnel Management (OPM) 

intends to continue using the Optional 

Form Application for Federal 

Employment (OF 612) and will not be 

requesting cancellation from the Office 

of Management and Budget at this time. 

The information collection was 

previously published in the Federal 

Register on February 25, 2009, at 73 FR 

8589 allowing for a 60-day public 

comment period. We have received two 

comments on the 60-day Notice 

requesting that the OF–612 be 

continued. 

The purpose of this notice is to allow 

an additional 30 days for public 

comments. Comments are particularly 

invited on: Whether this information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

functions of OPM, and whether it will 

have practical utility; whether our

42334 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 161 / Friday, August 21, 2009 / Notices 

estimate of the public burden of this 

collection of information is accurate and 

based on valid assumptions and 

methodology; and ways in which we 

can minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, through the use of 

appropriate technological collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology. 

We estimate 50,125,000 applications 

will be completed annually using the 

OF 612 and the USAJOBS Resume 

Builder. Each takes approximately 40 

minutes to read and complete, 

depending on the amount of 

information the applicant wishes to 

include. The annual estimated burden is 

33,416,667 hours. 

DATES: Comments on this proposal 

should be received within 30 calendar 

days from the date of this publication. 

ADDRESSES: Send or deliver comments 

to: OPM Desk Officer, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Office of Management and Budget, New 

Executive Office Building, 725 17th 

Street, NW., Room 10236, Washington,
