AGENCY: National Endowment for the 

Arts. 

ACTION: Notice of submission for OMB 

review; comment request. 

SUMMARY: The National Endowment for 

the Arts (NEA) has submitted the 

following public information collection 

request (ICR) to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NEA’s 

Literature: Translation Projects program 

gives grants to translators of previously 

written works which may be protected 

by copyright. The NEA typically 

requires that these applicants obtain 

from the publisher the affirmative ‘‘right 

to translate’’ the work (or, in cases that 

do not apply to this request that the 

work be in the public domain). Some 

publishers, due to industry standard 

practices, have refused to provide 

applicants with the ‘‘right to translate’’ 

but do not object to the work being 

translated. In order to ensure that these 

otherwise qualified applicants are 

eligible, the NEA proposes to use this 

form in which a non-applicant rightsholder affirmatively acknowledges and 

approves of the applicant’s project. 

Title of Collection: Acknowledgement 

of Rights-Holder for Literature: 

Translation Projects Applications. 

Type of Review: Regular. 

Affected Public: Individuals. 

Total Estimated Number of 

Respondents Across All Three Years: 

300. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Respondents: 100.

Request for Comments: Comments 

submitted in response to this notice will 

be summarized and/or included in the 

request for OMB approval. The OMB is 

particularly interested in comments 

which: (1.) Evaluate whether the 

proposed collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (2.) Evaluate the 

accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (3.) 

Enhance the quality, utility and clarity 

of the information to be collected; (4.) 

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, e.g., permitting 

electronic submissions of responses; 

and (5.) Estimate the capital or start-up 

costs and costs of operation, 

maintenance, and purchase of services 

to provide information. 

Burden means the total time, effort, or 

financial resources expended by persons 

to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or 

provide information to or for a Federal 

agency. This includes the time needed 

to review instructions; to develop, 

acquire, install and utilize technology 

and systems for the purpose of 

collecting, validating and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; to train 

personnel and to be able to respond to 

a collection of information, to search 

data sources, to complete and review 

the collection of information; and to 

transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[NRC–2017–0235] 

Licensing Support Network Advisory 

Review Panel: Revised Meeting Notice 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of meeting; revised; 

request for comments. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) will convene a 

meeting of the Licensing Support 

Network Advisory Review Panel 

(LSNARP) on February 27–28, 2018, at 

the NRC’s Headquarters Offices in Room 

01C3, Three White Flint North Building, 

11601 Landsdown Street, Rockville, 

Maryland 20852. The NRC has revised 

the meeting date from January 30–31 to 

February 27–28, 2018, to allow more 

time to evaluate options for the 

potential reconstitution or replacement 

of the Licensing Support Network 

(LSN). 

The meeting is being held to carry out 

the NRC’s responsibilities under the 

U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of 

Columbia Circuit’s decision in the case 

In re Aiken County, 645 F.3d 428 (D.C. 

Cir. 2011), and the Commission’s July 

31, 2017, direction in the Staff 

Requirements Memorandum associated 

with COMSECY–17–0019 that a next 

step in the Yucca Mountain licensing 

process is for the NRC to initiate 

information-gathering activities 

regarding reinstituting or replacing the 

LSN. The LSN, which was used to make 

documentary material associated with 

the Yucca Mountain adjudicatory 

proceeding available to hearing 

participants and the public, was 

decommissioned when the adjudication 

was suspended in 2011. The 

information being collected will assist 

the Commission in making efficient, 

informed decisions concerning 

appropriate means for reconstituting the 

LSN’s functionality if the currentlysuspended Yucca Mountain 

adjudication were to re-commence in 

the future. 

The meeting will be open to the 

public pursuant to the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act (FACA) (Pub. L. 94–463, 

86 Stat. 770–776) and will be conducted
