maintain, use, or disseminate data in 

this system, must comply with the 

requirements of the Privacy Act. 

(2) Physical Security of Electronic 

Data 

Physical security of electronic data 

will be maintained. The main database 

server for this system is located in a 

secure room at the contractor’s data 

center. Access to the secure room is 

monitored electronically. Personnel 

entering the room without electronic 

passes are logged in and admitted only 

by authorized personnel. The secure 

room is located behind closed doors in 

a passage limited to contractor 

personnel only. Finally, all entrances to 

the building are monitored both 

electronically and by front-desk 

personnel. 

Off-site backup media are encrypted, 

locked in a container, and transported 

securely by contractor staff to a second 

secure location that is also protected by 

electronic security measures. The 

locked container is stored in a dedicated 

locked room at the backup location. 

Access to the room is controlled by a 

key that is maintained by the backup 

location’s office manager. The office 

manager maintains a log of all 

individuals who access the room. 

(3) Physical Security of Print Data 

Physical security of print data will be 

maintained. Print data will be locked 

securely at contractor’s and 

subcontractors’ offices. At times, 

contractor or subcontractor staff may 

need to carry print records with them. 

These records will be locked securely 

when not in use. 

(4) User Access to Electronic Data 

Access to the database server and 

software is restricted to the system 

administrators for the MEBPSD. The 

Database Vendor, MS/EdD, is granted 

access to server data for the sole 

purpose of resolving contractor-initiated 

calls for assistance. The Department’s 

contractor and the database vendor 

maintain a signed confidentiality 

agreement. 

All MEBPSD user accounts will be 

granted by MEBPSD System 

Administrator staff and will leverage 

role-based accounts and security 

controls to limit access to the database 

application, its server, and 

infrastructure, to authorized users only. 

MEBPSD System Administrators will 

grant access to data in the MEBPSD to 

authorized contractor and subcontractor 

staff by creating accounts and assigning 

appropriate roles that restrict access 

based on user category (e.g., data 

administrator, MEP advocate, or project 

coordinator). MEBPSD System 

Administrators will grant access to data 

in the MEBPSD to the Database Vendor, 

MS/EdD, as needed, to address 

contractor initiated calls for assistance 

with the database. 

The MEBPSD requires the use of 

‘‘strong’’ passwords comprised of 

alphanumeric and special characters. 

Department, contractor, and 

subcontractor staff are granted access to 

student information on a ‘‘need to 

know’’ basis. All physically unsecured 

database installations, e.g., user 

workstations, reside on hard drives that 

are fully encrypted. Access to the 

system will be limited to secure network 

sessions such as Hypertext Transfer 

Protocol over Secure Socket Layer 

(HTTPS) and Virtual Private Network 

(VPN) connections. 

All electronic records stored on 

portable devices reside on fully 

encrypted hard drives or media. 

Electronic documents (e.g., spreadsheets 

and word processing documents) with 

student data are password protected. 

Records from the system are shared in 

accordance with the Privacy Act. 

(5) Additional Security Measures 

The CSIU uses a series of firewalls to 

limit internal access to specific Internet 

protocols and ports as well as intrusion 

detection systems to monitor any 

potential unauthorized access to the 

MEBPSD. The MIS2000 software logs 

and tracks login attempts, data 

modifications, and other key application 

events. CSIU staff monitor database and 

security logs on a regular basis. 

A third party performs vulnerability 

scans on a routine basis, and contractor 

staff monitor the US Computer 

Emergency Response Team (CERT) 

bulletins (see http://www.us-cert.gov/for 

more details) and apply operating 

system and vendor patches as 

appropriate. 

Confidentiality statements are 

maintained in job descriptions of all 

contractor and subcontractor employees. 

In addition, all contractor and 

subcontractor employees are required to 

sign data safeguarding statements.

BILLING CODE 6450–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Reimbursement for Costs of Remedial 

Action at Active Uranium and Thorium 

Processing Sites 

AGENCY: Department of Energy. 

ACTION: Notice of the acceptance of Title 

X claims during fiscal year (FY) 2012. 

SUMMARY: This Notice announces the 

Department of Energy’s (DOE) 

acceptance of claims in FY 2012 from 

eligible active uranium and thorium 

processing site licensees for 

reimbursement under Title X of the 

Energy Policy Act of 1992. In FY 2009, 

Congress appropriated $70 million for 

Title X in the American Recovery and 

Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery 

Act). Also in FY 2009, Congress 

provided $10 million for Title X through 

the normal appropriation process. As of 

the end of FY 2011, there are 

approximately $15.0 million of 

Recovery Act funds available for 

reimbursement in FY 2012. Of the 

$10 million provided by the FY 2009 

appropriation, $9.9 million of 

unobligated balances was rescinded by 

the Department of Defense and Full 

Year Continuing Appropriations Act 

(Pub. L. 112–10); and the remaining 

$100,000 had been obligated for Title X 

audit support. No funds were 

appropriated for Title X in FY 2012. All 

of the remaining Recovery Act funds 

will be reimbursed to licensees in early 

calendar year 2012 following the review 

of claims received by June 3, 2011. 

Since the available Recovery Act funds 

are less than the total estimated 

amounts eligible for reimbursement 

(approximately $23 million), the 

reimbursements to licensees will be 

paid on a prorated basis. 

DATES: The closing date for the 

submission of claims in FY 2012 is 

April 30, 2012. These new claims will 

be processed for payment by April 30, 

2013, together with any eligible unpaid 

approved claim balances from prior 

years, based on the availability of funds 

from congressional appropriations. If 

the total of approved claim amounts 

exceeds the available funding, the 

approved claim amounts will be 

reimbursed on a prorated basis. All 

reimbursements are subject to the 

availability of funds from congressional 

appropriations. 

ADDRESSES: Claims should be forwarded 

by certified or registered mail, return 

receipt requested, to U.S. Department of 

Energy, Office of Legacy Management, 

Attn: Title X Coordinator, 2597 Legacy 

Way, Grand Junction, Colorado 81503. 

Two copies of the claim should be 

included with each submission. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Contact David Mathes at (301) 903–7222 

of the U.S. Department of Energy, Office 

of Environmental Management, Office of 

Disposal Operations. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE 

published a final rule under 10 CFR Part 

765 in the Federal Register on May 23, 

1994, (59 FR 26714) to carry out the 

requirements of Title X of the Energy 

Policy Act of 1992 (sections 1001–1004 

of Public Law 102–486, 42 U.S.C. 2296a 

et seq.) and to establish the procedures 

for eligible licensees to submit claims 

for reimbursement. DOE amended the 

final rule on June 3, 2003, (68 FR 32955) 

to adopt several technical and 

administrative amendments (e.g., 

statutory increases in the 

reimbursement ceilings). Title X 

requires DOE to reimburse eligible 

uranium and thorium licensees for 

certain costs of decontamination, 

decommissioning, reclamation, and 

other remedial action incurred by 

licensees at active uranium and thorium 

processing sites to remediate byproduct 

material generated as an incident of 

sales to the United States Government. 

To be reimbursable, costs of remedial 

action must be for work which is 

necessary to comply with applicable 

requirements of the Uranium Mill 

Tailings Radiation Control Act of 1978 

(42 U.S.C. 7901 et seq.) or, where 

appropriate, with requirements 

established by a State pursuant to a 

discontinuance agreement under section 

274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 

(42 U.S.C. 2021). Claims for 

reimbursement must be supported by 

reasonable documentation as 

determined by DOE in accordance with 

10 CFR part 765. Funds for 

reimbursement will be provided from 

the Uranium Enrichment 

Decontamination and Decommissioning 

Fund established at the Department of 

Treasury pursuant to section 1801 of the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42 U.S.C. 

2297g). Payment or obligation of funds 

shall be subject to the requirements of 

the Anti-Deficiency Act (31 U.S.C. 

1341).
