universe and the search for and study of 

Earth-like planets and habitable, 

extrasolar environments. In addition to 

scientific research, the scope 

encompasses considerations of the 

development of near-term enabling 

technologies, systems, and computing 

and information management 

capabilities, developments with the 

potential to provide long-term 

improvements in future operational 

systems, as well as training of the next 

generation of astronomers, and 

education and public outreach. 

• Earth Science Subcommittee 

(ESS)—The Earth Science 

Subcommittee is a standing 

subcommittee of the NASA Advisory 

Council’s (the Council) Science 

Committee supporting the advisory 

needs of the Administrator, the Science 

Mission Directorate (SMD), SMD’s Earth 

Science Division (ESD), and other 

NASA Mission Directorates as required. 

The scope of the ESS includes the 

advancement of scientific knowledge of 

the Earth system through space-based 

observation and the pioneering use of 

these observations in conjunction with 

process studies, data assimilation and 

modeling to provide the Nation with 

improved capability to: predict climate 

variability, global change, and weather; 

mitigate and respond to natural hazards; 

and improve the scientific basis for 

policy decisions. In addition to 

observations and scientific research, the 

scope encompasses the development of 

computing and information 

management capabilities and other 

enabling technologies, including those 

with the potential to improve future 

operational satellite and ground 

systems. 

• Heliophysics Subcommittee 

(HPS)—Heliophysics Subcommittee is a 

standing subcommittee of the NASA 

Advisory Council’s (the Council) 

Science Committee supporting the 

advisory needs of the Administrator, the 

Science Mission Directorate (SMD), 

SMD’s Heliophysics Division (HPD), 

and other NASA Mission Directorates as 

required. The scope of the HPS includes 

all aspects of heliophysics, including 

the dynamical behavior of the Sun and 

its heliosphere; the dynamical behavior 

of the space environments of the Earth 

and other solar system bodies; the 

multi-scale interaction between solar 

system plasmas and the interstellar 

medium; and energy transport 

throughout the solar system and its 

impact on the Earth and other solar 

system bodies. In addition to scientific 

research, the scope encompasses 

considerations of the development of 

enabling technologies, systems, and 

computing and information 

management capabilities, as well as 

developments with the potential to 

provide long-term improvements to 

future space weather operational 

systems. 

• Planetary Protection Subcommittee 

(PPS)—Planetary Protection 

Subcommittee is a standing 

subcommittee of the NASA Advisory 

Council’s (the Council) Science 

Committee supporting the advisory 

needs of the Administrator, the Science 

Mission Directorate (SMD), SMD’s 

Planetary Science Division, NASA’s 

Planetary Protection Officer and other 

NASA Mission Directorates as required. 

The scope of the PPS includes 

programs, policies, plans, hazard 

identification and risk assessment, and 

other matters pertinent to the Agency’s 

responsibilities for biological planetary 

protection. This scope includes 

consideration of NASA planetary 

protection policy documents, 

implementation plans, and organization. 

The subcommittee will review and 

recommend appropriate planetary 

protection categorizations for all bodies 

of the solar system to which spacecraft 

will be sent. The scope also includes the 

development of near-term enabling 

technologies, systems, and capabilities, 

as well as developments with the 

potential to provide long-term 

improvements in future operational 

systems to support planetary protection. 

Outside the scope of the 

Subcommittee’s responsibilities are 

issues that pertain solely to the quality 

and interpretation of scientific 

experiments and data in support of solar 

system exploration. 

• Planetary Science Subcommittee 

(PSS)—Planetary Science Subcommittee 

is a standing subcommittee of the NASA 

Advisory Council’s (the Council) 

Science Committee supporting the 

advisory needs of the Administrator, the 

Science Mission Directorate (SMD), 

SMD’s Planetary Science Division 

(PSD), and other NASA Mission 

Directorates as required. The scope of 

the PSS includes all aspects of planetary 

science, scientific exploration of the 

Moon and Mars, the robotic exploration 

of the solar system, astrobiology, spaceand ground-based research, technology 

development, planning, and training 

required to support these science areas. 

In addition to scientific research, the 

scope encompasses considerations of 

the development of near-term enabling 

technologies, systems, and computing 

and information management 

capabilities, as well as developments 

with the potential to provide long-term 

improvements in future operational 

systems. Responsibility for biological 

planetary protection is outside the 

purview of the PSS and resides with the 

Planetary Protection Subcommittee 

(PPS).

NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[Docket Nos. 50–361 and 50–362; NRC– 

2014–0170] 

Southern California Edison Company; 

San Onofre Nuclear Generating 

Station, Units 2 and 3 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Exemption; issuance. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is issuing 

exemptions in response to a February 

13, 2014, request from Southern 

California Edison Company (SCE, or the 

licensee), representing itself and the 

other owners. The exemptions would 

permit the use of San Onofre Nuclear 

Generating Station (SONGS), Units 2 

and 3, decommissioning Trust funds for 

purposes other than decommissioning 

activities and would allow the licensee 

to use withdrawals from the 

decommissioning Trust funds without 

prior notification to the NRC. The NRC 

has reviewed the Trusts and determined 

that, at this time, there is reasonable 

assurance of sufficient financial 

resources in the Trusts to complete 

decommissioning activities.
