petitioner intends to rely to establish

those facts or expert opinion. Petitioner

must provide sufficient information to

show that a genuine dispute exists with

the applicant on a material issue of law

or fact. Contentions shall be limited to

matters within the scope of the

amendment under consideration. The

contention must be one which, if

proven, would entitle the petitioner to

relief. A petitioner who fails to file such

a supplement which satisfies these

requirements with respect to at least one

contention will not be permitted to

participate as a party.

Those permitted to intervene become

parties to the proceeding, subject to any

limitations in the order granting leave to

intervene, and have the opportunity to

participate fully in the conduct of the

hearing, including the opportunity to

present evidence and cross-examine

witnesses.

If a hearing is requested, the

Commission will make a final

determination on the issue of no

significant hazards consideration. The

final determination will serve to decide

when the hearing is held.

If the final determination is that the

amendment request involves no

significant hazards consideration, the

Commission may issue the amendment

and make it immediately effective,

notwithstanding the request for a

hearing. Any hearing held would take

place after issuance of the amendment.

If the final determination is that the

amendment request involves a

significant hazards consideration, any

hearing held would take place before

the issuance of any amendment.

A request for a hearing or a petition

for leave to intervene must be filed with

the Secretary of the Commission, U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

Washington, DC 20555–0001, Attention:

Docketing and Services Branch, or may

be delivered to the Commission’s Public

Document Room, the Gelman Building,

promptly so inform the Commission by

a toll-free telephone call to Western

Union at 1-(800) 248–5100 (in Missouri

Nontimely filings of petitions for

leave to intervene, amended petitions,

should be granted based upon a

balancing of the factors specified in 10

CFR 2.714(a)(1)(i)–(v) and 2.714(d).

[Notice No. 97]

Information Collection Activity

AGENCY: Research and Special Programs

Administration (RSPA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of information collection

approval

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this

notice announces the emergency

approval by the Office of Management

and Budget (OMB) of an information

collection request (ICR). An emergency

interim final rule (IFR) regarding cargo

tank motor vehicles in liquefied

compressed gas service contained the

ICR and was published in the Federal

Register on February 19, 1997, in

Docket No. RSPA–97–2133 (HM225)

with a 60-day comment period (62 FR

7638). The ICR describes the nature of

the information collection and its

expected cost and burden.

DATES: OMB approval of the information

collection request expires August 15,

1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Materials Standards (DHM–10),

Administration, Room 8102, 400

Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, DC

20590–0001, Telephone (202) 366–8553.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB

regulations (5 CFR 1320) implementing

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1995 (PRA) (Pub. L. 104–13; 109

Stat.163; 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) require

that interested members of the public

and affected agencies be given an

opportunity to comment on information

collection and recordkeeping activities

(see 5 CFR 1320.8(d)). Under the PRA,

no person is required to respond to an

information collection unless it displays

a valid OMB control number.

The IFR requires that a

comprehensive emergency operating

procedure be developed for all liquefied

compressed gas transfer operations. The

information collection and

recordkeeping requirements contained

in the IFR have received emergency

approval by OMB under the provisions

of the PRA. The OMB control number

for the information collection is 2137–

0595, and the approval expires August

15, 1997. The comment period for the

IFR, including the information

collection requirements, closes April 21,

1997. If RSPA receives substantive

comments on the information collection

requirements, a revised ICR will be

submitted to OMB for emergency

approval. RSPA estimates that the total

information collection and

recordkeeping burden of the IFR is

18,753 hours, at a cost of $422,660, for

the development and maintenance of

the comprehensive emergency operating

procedure. Requests for a copy of this

information collection should be

directed to the address above.

Issued in Washington, DC on February 27,

1997.

for the hearing impaired: (202) 927–

5721 (after March 16, 1997, (202) 565–

1695).]

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Applicants seek approval to pool

passenger and express operations and

revenues on the bus service they

provide between Philadelphia and New

York, via the New Jersey Turnpike.

They state that their services between

these points overlap and that excess

schedules are operated because of the

need to protect their respective

marketshares. According to applicants,

this has resulted in unacceptably low

load factors, an over-served market, and

inefficient operations.

Applicants state that the pooling

agreement will allow them to reduce

excess bus capacity, cement their

business relationship, and allow them to

share in the financial vicissitudes of the

pooled-route operations of the other.

They claim public benefits that will

include: (1) Rationalization of schedules
