32202 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 103 / Friday, May 27, 2022 / Notices 

If you are requesting or aggregating 

comments from other persons for 

submission to the OMB, then you 

should inform those persons not to 

include identifying or contact 

information that they do not want to be 

publicly disclosed in their comment 

submission. Your request should state 

that comment submissions are not 

routinely edited to remove such 

information before making the comment 

submissions available to the public or 

entering the comment into ADAMS. 

II. Background 

Under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently 

submitted a proposed collection of 

information to OMB for review entitled 

NRC Form 646, ‘‘Formal Discrimination 

Complaint.’’ 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. 

The NRC published a Federal 

Register notice with a 60-day comment 

period on this information collection on 

February 11, 2022, 87 FR 8060. 

1. The title of the information 

collection: NRC Form 646, ‘‘Formal 

Discrimination Complaint.’’ 

2. OMB approval number: An OMB 

control number has not yet been 

assigned to this proposed information 

collection. 

3. Type of submission: New. 

4. The form number, if applicable: 

NRC Form 646. 

5. How often the collection is required 

or requested: On occasion. The NRC 

Form 646 is submitted at the time an 

aggrieved individual decides to file a 

formal complaint of discrimination. 

6. Who will be required or asked to 

respond: Employees, former employees, 

or applicants for employment with the 

NRC, who believe that they have been 

subjected to discrimination based on 

race, color, national origin, religion, 

gender, age, disability, reprisal, or 

sexual orientation. 

7. The estimated number of annual 

responses: 30. 

8. The estimated number of annual 

respondents: 30. 

9. The estimated number of hours 

needed annually to comply with the 

information collection requirement or 

request: 30 hours. 

10. Abstract: As set forth under 29 

CFR 1614, the Equal Employment 

Opportunity (EEO) complaint process 

prescribes that when an aggrieved 

individual believes that they have been 

discriminated against on the basis of 

their race, color, religion, sex (including 

sexual orientation, gender identity and 

expressions, and pregnancy), national 

origin, age, disability, genetic 

information (including family medical 

history), marital status, parental status, 

political affiliation, military service, and 

reprisal and seeks EEO counseling, the 

assigned EEO Counselor will conduct 

the pre-complaint (Informal) with the 

intentions of resolving the complaint 

within the Agency. At the conclusion of 

pre-complaint (Informal) process and if 

resolution was unsuccessful, the EEO 

Counselor during the final interview 

with the aggrieved person must discuss 

what occurred during the counseling 

process and provide the aggrieved with 

information to move the matter forward. 

Pursuant to 29 CFR 1614.105(c), if the 

aggrieved individual decides to file a 

Formal complaint (i.e., NRC Form 646), 

the EEO Counselor must submit a 

written report (i.e., EEO Counselors 

Report) within fifteen (15) calendar days 

to the Office of Small Business and Civil 

Right Director or designated official that 

will contain relevant information about 

the aggrieved individual, jurisdiction, 

claims, bases, Responding Management 

Officials, witnesses, requested remedies, 

and the EEO Counselor’s checklist. 

Once received by the NRC, an 

authorized NRC representative will 

place the completed NRC Form 646 in 

a secure folder created specifically for 

the aggrieved individual within an 

automated tracking system. 

Dated: May 24, 2022. 

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Pacific Northwest Electric Power 

Planning and Conservation Act of 1980 

(Northwest Power Act) requires the 

Council to adopt and periodically 

review and revise a regional power plan, 

the northwest conservation and electric 

power plan. The Council first adopted 

the power and conservation plan in 

1983, with significant amendments or 

complete revisions adopted in 1986, 

1991, 1998, 2004, 2010, and 2016. For 

the 2021 Northwest Power Plan, the 

Council formally began the review 

process in February 2019, and in 

September 2021 the Council released for 

public review and comment the draft 

power plan. During the comment 

period, the Council held four public 

hearings on the draft plan, all of them 

held virtually due to the limitations 

imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic 

restrictions, but with each denoted as 

the public hearing for one of the four 

states of the Council, consistent with the 

requirements of the Northwest Power 

Act. In addition, the Council engaged in 

consultations about the power and 

conservation plan with Bonneville 

Power Administration (Bonneville), 

Bonneville’s utility customers, other 

utilities, various state, federal, tribal and 

local agencies and governments, public 

interest organizations, business and 

trade associations, and the public at 

large, and, accepted and considered 

substantial written and oral comments, 

with the Council receiving nearly 200 

formal and informal written public 

comments on the draft plan. The 

Council’s work on the 2021 Northwest 

Power Plan came in the middle of a 

transformation in the power system in 

the northwest and the western US as a 

whole, driven by policies and economic 

trends that are pushing out fossil-fueled 

generation, adding renewable resources

with different power system 

characteristics, and potentially 

electrifying significant sectors of the 

economy. The Council grappled 

throughout the power plan process, 

including through consideration of the 

comments received on the draft, with a 

host of issues arising out of that 

transformation. 

At the Council’s regularly scheduled 

public meeting in February 2022, held 

in Portland, Oregon via webinar, the 

Council formally adopted the 2021 

Northwest Power Plan. The revised 

power and conservation plan meets the 

requirements of the Northwest Power 

Act, which specifies the components the 

power plan is to have, including an 

energy conservation program, a 

recommendation for research and 

development; a methodology for 

determining quantifiable environmental 

costs and benefits; a 20-year demand 

forecast; a forecast of power resources 

that the Bonneville Power 

Administration will need to meet its 

obligations; and an analysis of reserve 

and reserve reliability requirements. 

The power and conservation plan also 

includes the Council’s Columbia River 

Basin Fish and Wildlife Program, as 

amended pursuant to Section 4(h) under 

the Northwest Power Act prior to 

beginning this review of the power plan. 

The Council followed the adoption of 

the 2021 Northwest Power Plan with a 

decision at its regular monthly meeting 

in May 2022, in Whitefish, Montana, to 

approve a Statement of Basis and 

Purpose and Response to Comments to 

accompany the final plan.
