Comment Request 

AGENCY: National Archives and Records 

Administration (NARA).

extension of two currently approved 

information collections. The first 

information collection is used to advise 

requesters of (1) The correct procedures 

to follow when requesting certified 

copies of records for use in civil 

litigation or criminal actions in courts of 

law, and (2) the information to be 

provided so that records may be 

identified. The second information 

collection is used when veterans, 

dependents, and other authorized 

individuals request information from or 

copies of documents in military 

personnel, military medical, and 

dependent medical records. The public 

is invited to comment on the proposed 

information collection pursuant to the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(Pub. L. 104–13), NARA invites the 

general public and other Federal 

agencies to comment on proposed 

information collections. The comments

more of the following points: (a) 

Whether the proposed information 

collections are necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of NARA; 

(b) the accuracy of NARA’s estimate of 

the burden of the proposed information 

collections; (c) ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on 

respondents, including the use of 

information technology; and (e) whether 

small businesses are affected by this 

collection. The comments that are 

submitted will be summarized and 

included in the NARA request for Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

approval. All comments will become a 

matter of public record. In this notice, 

NARA is soliciting comments

Department of Transportation (DOT, 

U.S. Coast Guard), the National 

Personnel Records Center (NPRC) of the 

National Archives and Records 

Administration (NARA) administers 

military personnel and medical records 

of veterans after discharge, retirement, 

and death. In addition, NRPC 

administers the medical records of 

dependents of service personnel. When 

mstockstill on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 10 / Wednesday, January 17, 2007 / Notices 2019 

veterans, dependents, and other 

authorized individuals request 

information from or copies of 

documents in military personnel, 

military medical, and dependent 

medical records, they must provide on 

forms or in letters certain information 

about the veteran and the nature of the 

request. A major fire at the NPRC on 

July 12, 1973, destroyed numerous 

military records. If individuals’ requests 

involve records or information from 

records that may have been lost in the 

fire, requesters may be asked to 

complete NA Form 13075, 

Questionnaire about Military Service, or 

NA Form 13055, Request for 

Information Needed to Reconstruct 

Medical Data, so that NPRC staff can 

search alternative sources to reconstruct 

the requested information. Requesters 

who ask for medical records of 

dependents of service personnel and 

hospitalization records of military 

personnel are asked to complete NA 

Form 13042, Request for Information 

Needed to Locate Medical Records, so 

that NPRC staff can locate the desired 

records. Certain types of information 

contained in military personnel and 

medical records are restricted from 

disclosure unless the veteran provides a 

more specific release authorization than 

is normally required. Veterans are asked 

to complete NA Form 13036, 

Authorization for Release of Military 

Medical Patient Records, to authorize 

release to a third party of a restricted 

type of information found in the desired 

record.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[ Docket No. 50–425] 

Southern Nuclear Operating Company, 

Inc.; Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, 

Unit 2; Exemption 

1.0 Background 

The Southern Nuclear Operating 

Company, Inc. (SNC/licensee), is the 

holder of Facility Operating License 

Nos. NPF–68 and NPF–81, which 

authorize operation of the Vogtle 

Electric Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2 

(VEGP Unit 1 and VEGP Unit 2), 

respectively. The licenses provide, 

among other things, that the facility is 

subject to all rules, regulations, and 

orders of the Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC, the Commission) 

now or hereafter in effect. 

The facility consists of two 

pressurized-water reactors (PWRs) 

supplied by Westinghouse Electric 

Corporation, each rated at 3565 

megawatts (thermal). The facility is 

located in Burke County, Georgia. This 

exemption addresses VEGP Unit 2. 

2.0 Request/Action 

Title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR), Part 54.17(c) 

stipulates that an application for a 

renewed license may not be submitted 

to the Commission earlier than 20 years 

before the expiration of the operating 

license currently in effect. 

By letter dated May 22, 2006, the 

licensee requested a schedular 

exemption from the 20-year restriction 

specified in 10 CFR 54.17(c) for VEGP 

Unit 2 so that the license renewal 

application (LRA) for both Vogtle 

Electric Generating Plant units can be 

prepared and submitted concurrently, 

with the goal of attaining efficiencies for 

preparation and review of the 

application. The current operating 

license for VEGP Unit 1 expires on 

January 16, 2027, whereas the current 

operating license for VEGP Unit 2 

expires on February 9, 2029. At the time 

the exemption request was filed, VEGP 

Unit 1 had over 19 years of operating 

experience and VEGP Unit 2 had over 

17 years of operating experience. 

This exemption is required in order to 

allow an application for renewal of the 

VEGP Unit 2 license to be prepared and 

submitted concurrently with the LRA 

for VEGP Unit 1. Based on an 

anticipated submittal of a renewal 

application on June 28, 2007, VEGP 

Unit 1 will meet the requirements of 10 

CFR 54.17(c) and the license renewal 

request for VEGP Unit 2 would occur 

approximately 2 years earlier than the 

earliest date allowed by 10 CFR 

54.17(c). 

3.0 Discussion 

Pursuant to 10 CFR 54.15, the 

Commission may, upon application by 

any interested person or upon its own 

initiative, grant exemptions from the 

requirements of 10 CFR Part 54, in 

accordance with the provisions of 10 

CFR 50.12, (1) when the exemptions are 

authorized by law, will not present an 

undue risk to public health or safety, 

and are consistent with the common 

defense and security; and (2) when 

special circumstances are present. 

Authorized by Law 

The Commission’s basis for 

establishing the 20-year limit contained 

in Section 54.17(c) is discussed in the 

1991 Statements of Consideration for 

Part 54 of 10 CFR (56 FR 64963). The 

limit was established to ensure that 

substantial operating experience was 

accumulated by a licensee before a 

renewal application is submitted such 

that any plant-specific concerns 

regarding aging would be disclosed. In 

amending the rule in 1995, the 

Commission sought public comment on 

whether the 20-year limit should be 

reduced. The Commission determined 

that sufficient basis did not exist to 

generically reduce the 20-year limit. 

However, the Commission did indicate 

in the Statements of Consideration for 

the amended rule (60 FR 22488), that it 

was willing to consider plant-specific 

exemption requests by applicants who 

believe that sufficient information is 

available to justify applying for license 

renewal prior to 20 years from 

expiration of the current license. SNC’s 

exemption request is consistent with the 

Commission’s intent to consider plantspecific requests and is permitted by 10 

CFR 54.15. Therefore, the exemption is 

authorized by law.
