ACTION Notice.

SUMMARY: The Institute of Museum and

Library Services, as part of its

continuing effort to reduce paperwork

and respondent burden, conducts a

preclearance consultation to provide the

general public and Federal agencies

with an opportunity to comment on

proposed and/or continuing collection

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

Institute of Museum and Library

Services is soliciting comment

concerning two new collections

entitled, 1998 Indian Library Services

Application and Guidelines and 1998

Native Hawaiians Library Services

Application and Guidelines.

A copy of the proposed information

collection request can be obtained by

contacting the individual listed below

in the addressee section of this notice.

The agency 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.

DATES: Written comments must be

submitted to the office listed in the

Native Hawaiian Education Act (20

U.S.C. 7912) to enable such tribes and

organizations to carry out activities to:

• Establish or enhance electronic

linkages among or between libraries

electronically link libraries with

educational, social or information

services; assist libraries in accessing

information through electronic

networks;

• Encourage libraries in different

areas, and encourage different types of

libraries, to establish consortia and

share resources; or

BILLING CODE 7036–01–M

NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50–269, 50–270, and 50–287]

Duke Energy Corporation; Notice of

Consideration of Issuance of

Amendments to Facility Operating

Licenses and Opportunity for a

Hearing

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (the Commission) is

considering issuance of amendments to

Facility Operating License Nos. DPR–38,

DPR–47, and DPR–55, issued to Duke

Energy Corporation (the licensee), for

operation of the Oconee Nuclear

Station, Units 1, 2, and 3, located in

Seneca, South Carolina.

The proposed amendments would

replace the current Technical

Specifications (TS) with a set of TS

based on NUREG–1430, ‘‘Standard

Technical Specifications—Babcock and

Wilcox Plants,’’ Revision 1, dated April

1995. The adoption of NUREG–1430 is

part of an initiative to standardize and

improve the TS for Babcock and Wilcox

nuclear power plants.

The changes in the current TS can be

grouped into five categories:

administrative changes, more restrictive

technical changes, less restrictive

technical changes, relocation of details

to other licensee controlled documents,

and relocation of specifications to other

licensee controlled documents.

Administrative changes to the current

TS are changes that result in no increase

or decrease in restrictions or flexibility.

These changes are intended to make the

TS easier to use. More restrictive

technical changes are either more

conservative than the corresponding

requirements in the current TS, or are

additional restrictions that are not

contained in the current TS. Less

restrictive technical changes reduce

either the scope or magnitude of

requirements or add flexibility and are

usually made as a result of operating

experience. In most cases, these

relaxations to the TS have been

previously granted by the NRC to other

plants. Relocation of details involves

removal from the current TS and

relocation to other licensee controlled

documents. Typically, these details are

of system design or function, or

procedural details on surveillances. And

finally, relocation of specifications

involves requirements that are in the

current TS but do not meet the criteria

set forth in the Commission’s Policy

Statement on Technical Specification

Improvement. Once these items have

been relocated, the licensee generally

would be able to revise them under the

provisions of 10 CFR 50.59 without a

license amendment.

Before issuance of the proposed

license amendments, the Commission

will have made findings required by the

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended

(the Act) and the Commission’s

regulations.

By January 5, 1998, the licensee may

file a request for a hearing with respect

to issuance of the amendments to the

subject facility operating licenses and

any person whose interest may be

affected by this proceeding and who

wishes to participate as a party in the

proceeding must file a written request

for a hearing and a petition for leave to

intervene. Requests for a hearing and a

petition for leave to intervene shall be

filed in accordance with the

Commission’s ‘‘Rules of Practice for

Domestic Licensing Proceedings’’ in 10

CFR part 2. Interested persons should

consult a current copy of 10 CFR 2.714

which is available at the Commission’s

Public Document Room, the Gelman

Building, 2120 L Street, NW.,

Washington, DC, and at the local public

document room located at the Oconee

County Library, 501 West South Broad

Street, Walhalla, South Carolina. If a

request for a hearing or petition for

leave to intervene is filed by the above

date, the Commission or an Atomic

Safety and Licensing Board, designated

by the Commission or by the Chairman

of the Atomic Safety and Licensing

Board Panel, will rule on the request

and/or petition; and the Secretary or the

designated Atomic Safety and Licensing

Board will issue a notice of hearing or

an appropriate order.

As required by 10 CFR 2.714, a

petition for leave to intervene shall set

forth with particularity the interest of

the petitioner in the proceeding, and

how that interest may be affected by the

results of the proceeding. The petition

should specifically explain the reasons

why intervention should be permitted

with particular reference to the

following factors: (1) The nature of the

petitioner’s right under the Act to be

made a party to the proceeding; (2) the

nature and extent of the petitioner’s

property, financial, or other interest in

the proceeding; and (3) the possible

effect of any order which may be

entered in the proceeding on the

petitioner’s interest. The petition should

also identify the specific aspect(s) of the

subject matter of the proceeding as to

which petitioner wishes to intervene.

Any person who has filed a petition for

leave to intervene or who has been

admitted as a party may amend the

petition without requesting leave of the

Board up to 15 days prior to the first

prehearing conference scheduled in the
