and maintained. This option may also

include a monument or sculpture.

A variation on Option B would also

incorporate a 3-hole youth golf facility

in the extreme northern portion of the

island. The environmental impacts of

this option will be assessed both with

and without the golf development.

Access to the islands would be

permitted both from the footbridges and,

because of the need for service

deliveries, from the Benning Road

access drive. Security would be

maintained by closing the gates to the

Island at dusk and providing an Urban

Ranger to help patrol the islands.

Security must be provided when

campers are on the islands.

Option C—Active Use for Recreational

Purposes

Option C focuses on the reuse of the

Islands as a 9-hole, par 3 youth golf

facility. This use would develop the

upper portion of Kingman Island as a

putting green and golf holes. The facility

will be accessible from Langston Golf

Course via an underpass under Benning

Road on the east side of the Island. The

development would also include a

riverwalk along the edge of the golf

course and extending down the length

of the islands. A boat-tie up and bird

observation towers will also be provided

in this development plan. In addition,

monuments and public art, camping

facilities, and a playground could also

be incorporated.

Security will be maintained by regular

use and activity on the islands. In

addition, the golf course will be well lit

with the possibility of extending

lighting along the major trails. It is

anticipated that some form of private

security might also be employed in

conjunction with regular police patrols.

The EA will identify and analyze

environmental impacts and mitigation

options of the alternative plans

including the No Action alternative.

Topics for environmental analysis

include short-term construction-related

impacts; long-term changes in traffic,

parking, socio-economic impacts, land

use and physical/biological conditions

within the project area; cultural (historic

and archeological) in accordance with

the Section 106 of the National Historic

Preservation Act, and visual resource

protection, site operation, and

maintenance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

environmental scoping process will

include all written comments and one

(1) public meeting for the purpose of

determining significant issues related to

the alternatives and to the potential

impacts associated with the proposed

development of Kingman and Heritage

Islands. The public meeting will be

held: Tuesday, December 12, 2000, 6

NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

Agency Information Collection

Activities: Submission for OMB

Review; Comment Request

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of

information collection and solicitation

of public comment.

SUMMARY: The NRC recently submitted

to OMB for review the following

proposal for the collection of

information under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44

U.S.C. Chapter 35). The NRC hereby

informs potential respondents that an

agency may not conduct or sponsor, and

that a person is not required to respond

to, a collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid OMB control

number.

1. Type of submission, new, revision,

or extension: New.

2. The title of the information

collection: General Licensee

Registration.

3. The form number, if applicable:

NRC Form 664.

4. How often the collection is

required: Annually.

5. Who will be required or asked to

report: General Licensees of the NRC

who possess devices subject to

registration under 10 CFR 31.5.

6. An estimate of the number of

annual respondents: 4,300.

7. An estimate of the total number of

hours needed annually to complete the

requirement or request: 1,433 hours

annually (4,300 respondents x 20

minutes per form).

8. An indication of whether Section

3504(h), Pub. L. 96–511 applies:

Applicable.

9. Abstract: NRC Form 664 would be

used by NRC general licensees to make

reports regarding certain generally

licensed devices subject to registration.

The registration program is intended to

allow NRC to better track general

licensees, so that they can be contacted

or inspected as necessary, and to make

sure that generally licensed devices can

be identified even if lost or damaged,

and to further ensure that general

licensees are aware of and understand

the requirements for the possession of

devices containing byproduct material.

Greater awareness helps to ensure that

general licensees will comply with the

requirements for proper handling and

disposal of generally licensed devices

and would reduce the potential for

incidents that could result in

unnecessary radiation exposure to the

public and contamination of property.

A copy of NRC Form 664 and the final

OMB supporting statement may be

viewed free of charge at the NRC Public

Document Room, One White Flint

North, 11555 Rockville Pike, Room

1F23, Rockville, MD 20852. OMB

clearance requests are also available at

the NRC Worldwide web site: http://

www.nrc.gov/NRC/PUBLIC/OMB/

index.html. The OMB supporting

statement, and NRC Form 664 will be

available on the NRC home page for 60

days after the signature date of this

notice.

Comments and questions should be

directed to the OMB reviewer by

December 18, 2000. Comments received

after this date will be considered if it is

practical to do so, but assurance of

consideration cannot be given to

comments received after this date.
