SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as

part of its, continuing effort to reduce

paperwork and respondent burden

conducts a preclearance consultation

program to provide the general public

opportunity to comment on proposed

and/or continuing collections of

information in accordance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This

program helps to ensure that requested

data can be provided in the desired

format, reporting burden (time and

financial resources) is minimized,

collection instruments are clearly

understood, and the impact of collection

requirements on respondents can be

properly assessed. Currently, the

Employment and Training

Administration is soliciting comments

concerning the proposed extension

collection of the JTPA Annual Summary

Program Report (JASPR).

A copy of the proposed information

collection request (ICR) can be obtained

by contacting the office listed below in

the addressee section of this notice.

DATES: Writteen comments must be

submitted to the office listed in the

addressee section below on or before

November 12, 1997.

The Department of Labor is

particularly interested in comments

which:

• Evaluate whether the proposed

collection of information is necessary

for the proper performance of the

functions of the agency, including

whether the information will have

practical utility;

• Evaluate the accuracy of the

agency’s estimate of the burden of the

proposed collection of information,

including the validity of the

methodology and assumptions used;

• Enhance the quality, utility, and

clarity of the information to be

collected; and

• Minimize the burden of the

collection of information on those who

are to respond, including through the

use of appropriate automated, electronic

mechanical, or other technological

collection techniques or other forms of

information technology, e.g., permitting

electronic submissions of responses.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment Standards Administration

Wage and Hour Division; Minimum

Wages for Federal and Federally

Assisted Construction; General Wage

Determination Decisions

General wage determination decisions

of the Secretary of Labor are issued in

accordance with applicable law and are

based on the information obtained by

the Department of Labor from its study

of local wage conditions and data made

available from other sources. They

specify the basic hourly wage rates and

fringe benefits which are determined to

be prevailing for the described classes of

laborers and mechanics employed on

construction projects of a similar

character and in the localities specified

therein.

The determinations in these decisions

of prevailing rates and fringe benefits

have been made in accordance with 29

CFR part 1, by authority of the Secretary

of Labor pursuant to the provisions of

the Davis-Bacon Act of March 3, 1931,

as amended (46 Stat. 1494, as amended,

40 U.S.C. 276a) and of other Federal

statutes referred to in 29 CFR part 1,

Appendix, as well as such additional

statutes as may from time to time be

enacted containing provisions for the

payment of wages determined to be

prevailing by the Secretary of Labor in

accordance with the Davis-Bacon Act.

The prevailing rates and fringe benefits

determined in these decisions shall, in

accordance with the provisions of the

foregoing statutes, constitute the

minimum wages payable on Federal and

federally assisted construction projects

to laborers and mechanics of the

specified classes engaged on contract

work of the character and in the

localities described therein.

Good cause is hereby found for not

utilizing notice and public comment

procedure thereon prior to the issuance

of these determinations as prescribed in

5 U.S.C. 553 and not providing for delay

in the effective date as prescribed in that

section, because the necessity to issue
48112 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 177 / Friday, September 12, 1997 / Notices

current construction industry wage

determinations frequently and in large

volume causes procedures to be

impractical and contrary to the public

interest.

General wage determination

decisions, and modifications and

supersedes decisions thereto, contain no

expiration dates and are effective from

their date of notice in the Federal

Register, or on the date written notice

is received by the agency, whichever is

earlier. These decisions are to be used

in accordance with the provisions of 29

CFR parts 1 and 5. Accordingly, the

applicable decision, together with any

modifications issued, must be made a

part of every contract for performance of

the described work within the

geographic area indicated as required by

an applicable Federal prevailing wage

law and 29 CFR part 5. The wage rates

and fringe benefits, notice of which is

published herein, and which are

contained in the Government Printing

Office (GPO) document entitled

‘‘General Wage Determinations Issued

Under The Davis-Bacon And Related

Acts,’’ shall be the minimum paid by

contractors and subcontractors to

laborers and mechanics.

Any person, organization, or

governmental agency having an interest

in the rates determined as prevailing is

encouraged to submit wage rate and

fringe benefit information for

consideration by the Department.

Further information and selfexplanatory forms for the purpose of

submitting this data may be obtained by

NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

The Cleveland Electric Illuminating

Company, the Toledo Edison

Company, Duquesne Light Company,

Ohio Edison Company, and

Pennsylvania Power Company, Beaver

Valley Power Station, Unit Nos. 1 and

2; Notice of Consideration of Approval

of Application Regarding Proposed

Corporate Restructuring

Notice is hereby given that the United

States Nuclear Regulatory Commission

(the Commission) is considering

approval by issuance of an order under

10 CFR 50.80 of an application

concerning a proposed merger between

DQE, Inc. and Allegheny Power System,

Inc. (Allegheny Power). DQE, Inc. is the

parent holding company of Duquesne

Light Company (DLC), which holds

licenses to possess interests in and to

use and operate Beaver Valley Power

Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (BVPS–1 and

BVPS–2). The Cleveland Electric

Illuminating Company, The Toledo

Edison Company, and Ohio Edison

Company and its subsidiary

Pennsylvania Power Company also hold

licenses to possess interests in the

Beaver Valley Power Station, but are not

involved in the proposed merger. By

letter dated August 1, 1997, the

Commission was informed that DQE,

Inc., and Allegheny Power have entered

into a merger agreement in which DQE,

Inc., will become a wholly owned

subsidiary of Allegheny Power.

Allegheny Power will be renamed

Allegheny Energy, Inc.

According to the application, the

merger will have no effect on the

operation of BVPS–1 and BVPS–2, or

the provisions of their operating

licenses. The Cleveland Electric

Illuminating Company, The Toledo

Edison Company, Ohio Edison

Company, and Pennsylvania Power

Company will remain licensees

responsible for their possessory interests

and related obligations. DLC will

continue to operate BVPS–1 and BVPS–

2 after the merger, as required by the

operating license. No direct transfer of

the license will result from the merger.

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.80, the

Commission may consent to the transfer

of control of a license after notice to

interested persons. Such consent is

contingent upon the Commission’s

determination that the holder of the

license following the transfer is

qualified to hold the license and that the

transfer is otherwise consistent with

applicable provisions of law,

regulations, and orders of the

Commission.

For further details with respect to this

proposed action, see the application

from DLC dated August 1, 1997. The

August 1, 1997, application is available

for public inspection at the

Commission’s Public Document Room,

the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street,

NW, Washington, DC 20555, and at the

local public document room located at

the B.F. Jones Memorial Library, 663

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (the Commission) is

considering issuance of an amendment

to Facility Operating License No. NPF–

pressure testing at a reactor coolant

temperature up to 212 °F while

remaining in Operational Condition 4.
