Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 242 / Tuesday, December 19, 2023 / Notices 87817 

Type of Request: Revision to and 

extension of approval of an information 

collection. 

Abstract: Section 10 of the National 

Science Foundation Act of 1950 (42 

U.S.C. 1861 et seq.), as amended, states 

that ‘‘The Foundation is authorized to 

award, within the limits of funds made 

available * * * scholarships and 

graduate fellowships for scientific study 

or scientific work in the mathematical, 

physical, biological, engineering, social, 

and other sciences at accredited U.S. 

institutions selected by the recipient of 

such aid, for stated periods of time.’’ 

The Graduate Research Fellowship 

Program has two goals: 

• To select, recognize, and financially 

support, early in their careers, 

individuals with the demonstrated 

potential to be high achieving scientists 

and engineers; 

• To broaden participation in science 

and engineering of underrepresented 

groups, including women, minorities, 

persons with disabilities, and veterans. 

The list of GRFP Awardees recognized 

by the Foundation may be found via 

FastLane through the NSF website: 

https://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/grfp/

AwardeeList.do?method=

loadAwardeeList. The GRF Program is 

described in the Solicitation available 

at: https://www.nsf.gov/publications/ 

pub_summ.jsp?ods_

key=nsf19590&org=NSF. 

Estimate of Burden: This is an annual 

application program providing three 

years of support to individuals, usable 

over a five-year fellowship period. The 

application deadlines are in late 

October. It is estimated that each 

submission is averaged to be 12 hours 

per respondent, which includes three 

references (on average) for each 

application. It is estimated that it takes 

two hours per reference for each 

applicant. 

Respondents: Individuals. 

Estimated Number of Responses: 

14,000. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 168,000 hours. 

Frequency of Responses: Annually. 

Comments: Comments are invited on 

(a) whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Agency, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the Agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information; (c) ways to 

enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 

of the information on respondents, 

including through the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and (d) ways to 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The NRC received a license renewal 

application (LRA) from PG&E, dated 

November 7, 2023 (ADAMS Accession 

No. ML23311A154), filed pursuant to 

part 54 of title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Requirements for 

Renewal of Operating Licenses for 

Nuclear Power Plants,’’ to renew the 

operating licenses for DCPP. DCPP 

consists of two pressurized-water 

reactors designed by Westinghouse and 

is located in Avila Beach, California. A 

notice of receipt of the LRA was 

published in the Federal Register on 

November 20, 2023 (88 FR 80780). 

The NRC staff has determined that 

PG&E has submitted sufficient 

information in accordance with 10 CFR 

54.19, 54.21, 54.22, 54.23, 51.45, and 

51.53(c) to enable the staff to undertake 

a review of the application, and that the 

application is, therefore, acceptable for 

docketing. The current docket numbers, 

50–275 and 50–323, for Facility 

Operating License Nos. DPR–80 and 

DPR–82, respectively, will be retained. 

The determination to accept the LRA for 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
87818 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 242 / Tuesday, December 19, 2023 / Notices 

docketing does not constitute a 

determination that a renewed license 

should be issued and does not preclude 

the NRC staff from requesting additional 

information as the review proceeds. 

Before issuance of the requested 

renewed licenses, the NRC will have 

made the findings required by the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended 

(the Act), and the Commission’s rules 

and regulations. In accordance with 10 

CFR 54.29, the NRC may issue a 

renewed license on the basis of its 

review if it finds that actions have been 

identified and have been or will be 

taken with respect to: (1) managing the 

effects of aging during the period of 

extended operation on the functionality 

of structures and components that have 

been identified as requiring aging 

management review; and (2) timelimited aging analyses that have been 

identified as requiring review, such that 

there is reasonable assurance that the 

activities authorized by the renewed 

license will continue to be conducted in 

accordance with the current licensing 

basis and that any changes made to the 

plant’s current licensing basis will 

comply with the Act and the 

Commission’s regulations. 

Additionally, in accordance with 10 

CFR 51.95(c), the NRC staff will prepare 

an environmental impact statement as a 

supplement to the Commission’s 

NUREG–1437, ‘‘Generic Environmental 

Impact Statement for License Renewal 

of Nuclear Plants,’’ dated June 2013 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML13106A241). 

In considering the LRA, the Commission 

must find that the applicable 

requirements of subpart A of 10 CFR 

part 51 have been satisfied, and that any 

matters raised under 10 CFR 2.335 have 

been addressed. Pursuant to 10 CFR 

51.26, and as part of the environmental 

scoping process, the staff intends to 

hold public scoping meetings. Detailed 

information regarding the 

environmental scoping meetings will be 

the subject of a separate Federal 

Register notice. 

II. Opportunity To Request a Hearing 

and Petition for Leave To Intervene 

Within 75 days after the date of 

publication of this notice, any person 

(petitioner) whose interest may be 

affected by this action may file a request 

for a hearing and petition for leave to 

intervene (petition) with respect to the 

action. The NRC’s regulations require a 

minimum of 60 days within which to 

file a request for a hearing and petition 

for leave to intervene. Here, the NRC is 

extending that time period to 75 days in 

consideration of the holiday season. 

Petitions shall be filed in accordance 

with the Commission’s ‘‘Agency Rules 

of Practice and Procedure’’ in 10 CFR 

part 2. Interested persons should 

consult 10 CFR 2.309. If a petition is 

filed, the presiding officer will rule on 

the petition and, if appropriate, a notice 

of a hearing will be issued. 

Petitions must be filed no later than 

75 days from the date of publication of 

this notice in accordance with the filing 

instructions in the ‘‘Electronic 

Submissions (E-Filing)’’ section of this 

document. Petitions and motions for 

leave to file new or amended 

contentions that are filed after the 

deadline will not be entertained absent 

a determination by the presiding officer 

that the filing demonstrates good cause 

by satisfying the three factors in 10 CFR 

2.309(c)(1)(i) through (iii). 

A State, local governmental body, 

Federally recognized Indian Tribe, or 

designated agency thereof, may submit 

a petition to the Commission to 

participate as a party under 10 CFR 

2.309(h) no later than 75 days from the 

date of publication of this notice. 

Alternatively, a State, local 

governmental body, Federally 

recognized Indian Tribe, or agency 

thereof may participate as a non-party 

under 10 CFR 2.315(c). 

For information about filing a petition 

and about participation by a person not 

a party under 10 CFR 2.315, see ADAMS 

Accession No. ML20340A053 (https://

adamswebsearch2.nrc.gov/webSearch2/

main.jsp?Accession

Number=ML20340A053) and on the 

NRC’s public website at https://

www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/regulatory/ 

adjudicatory/hearing.html#participate. 

III. Electronic Submissions (E-Filing) 

All documents filed in NRC 

adjudicatory proceedings including 

documents filed by an interested State, 

local governmental body, Federally 

recognized Indian Tribe, or designated 

agency thereof that requests to 

participate under 10 CFR 2.315(c), must 

be filed in accordance with 10 CFR 

2.302. The E-Filing process requires 

participants to submit and serve all 

adjudicatory documents over the 

internet, or in some cases, to mail copies 

on electronic storage media, unless an 

exemption permitting an alternative 

filing method, as further discussed, is 

granted. Detailed guidance on electronic 

submissions is located in the ‘‘Guidance 

for Electronic Submissions to the NRC’’ 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML13031A056) 

and on the NRC’s public website at 

https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. 

To comply with the procedural 

requirements of E-Filing, at least 10 

days prior to the filing deadline, the 

participant should contact the Office of 

the Secretary by email at 

Hearing.Docket@nrc.gov, or by 

telephone at 301–415–1677, to (1) 

request a digital identification (ID) 

certificate, which allows the participant 

(or its counsel or representative) to 

digitally sign submissions and access 

the E-Filing system for any proceeding 

in which it is participating; and (2) 

advise the Secretary that the participant 

will be submitting a petition or other 

adjudicatory document (even in 

instances in which the participant, or its 

counsel or representative, already holds 

an NRC-issued digital ID certificate). 

Based upon this information, the 

Secretary will establish an electronic 

docket for the proceeding if the 

Secretary has not already established an 

electronic docket. 

Information about applying for a 

digital ID certificate is available on the 

NRC’s public website at https://

www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/ 

getting-started.html. After a digital ID 

certificate is obtained and a docket 

created, the participant must submit 

adjudicatory documents in Portable 

Document Format. Guidance on 

submissions is available on the NRC’s 

public website at https://www.nrc.gov/ 

site-help/electronic-sub-ref-mat.html. A 

filing is considered complete at the time 

the document is submitted through the 

NRC’s E-Filing system. To be timely, an 

electronic filing must be submitted to 

the E-Filing system no later than 11:59 

p.m. ET on the due date. Upon receipt 

of a transmission, the E-Filing system 

time-stamps the document and sends 

the submitter an email confirming 

receipt of the document. The E-Filing 

system also distributes an email that 

provides access to the document to the 

NRC’s Office of the General Counsel and 

any others who have advised the Office 

of the Secretary that they wish to 

participate in the proceeding, so that the 

filer need not serve the document on 

those participants separately. Therefore, 

applicants and other participants (or 

their counsel or representative) must 

apply for and receive a digital ID 

certificate before adjudicatory 

documents are filed to obtain access to 

the documents via the E-Filing system. 

A person filing electronically using 

the NRC’s adjudicatory E-Filing system 

may seek assistance by contacting the 

NRC’s Electronic Filing Help Desk 

through the ‘‘Contact Us’’ link located 

on the NRC’s public website at https:// 

www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html, by email to 

MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov, or by a tollfree call at 1–866–672–7640. The NRC 

Electronic Filing Help Desk is available 

between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m., ET, Monday 

through Friday, except Federal holidays.

Final Rules Relating to Non-Public Information, 

June 27, 2018, Attachment A at 19–22 (Order No. 

4679). 

Participants who believe that they 

have good cause for not submitting 

documents electronically must file an 

exemption request, in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper 

filing stating why there is good cause for 

not filing electronically and requesting 

authorization to continue to submit 

documents in paper format. Such filings 

must be submitted in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(b)–(d). Participants filing 

adjudicatory documents in this manner 

are responsible for serving their 

documents on all other participants. 

Participants granted an exemption 

under 10 CFR 2.302(g)(2) must still meet 

the electronic formatting requirement in 

10 CFR 2.302(g)(1), unless the 

participant also seeks and is granted an 

exemption from 10 CFR 2.302(g)(1). 

Documents submitted in adjudicatory 

proceedings will appear in the NRC’s 

electronic hearing docket, which is 

publicly available at https://

adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless excluded 

pursuant to an order of the presiding 

officer. If you do not have an NRCissued digital ID certificate as 

previously described, click ‘‘cancel’’ 

when the link requests certificates and 

you will be automatically directed to the 

NRC’s electronic hearing dockets where 

you will be able to access any publicly 

available documents in a particular 

hearing docket. Participants are 

requested not to include personal 

privacy information such as social 

security numbers, home addresses, or 

personal phone numbers in their filings 

unless an NRC regulation or other law 

requires submission of such 

information. With respect to 

copyrighted works, except for limited 

excerpts that serve the purpose of the 

adjudicatory filings and would 

constitute a Fair Use application, 

participants should not include 

copyrighted materials in their 

submission.
