appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

As required by 5 CFR 1320.8(d), 

comments on the information collection 

activities as part of this study were 

solicited through publication of a 60- 

Day Notice in the Federal Register on 

March 30, 2022, at 87 FR 18399. One 

comment was received, to which we 

here respond. The comment came from 

the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). 

They expressed general support for the 

HERD and FFRDC surveys and 

requested that they be informed of any 

future questionnaire modifications. 

NCSES is in regular contact with BEA 

about their data needs and sends annual 

data files to support their national 

income and product accounts (NIPAs), 

industry economic accounts (IEAs), and 

gross domestic product (GDP) by state 

estimates. BEA noted the specific items 

used from each survey. 

NSF may not conduct or sponsor a 

collection of information unless the 

collection of information displays a 

currently valid OMB control number, 

and the agency informs potential 

persons who are to respond to the 

collection of information that such 

persons are not required to respond to 

the collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title of Collection: Higher Education 

Research and Development Survey. 

OMB Number: 3145–0100. 

Type of Request: Renewal with 

change of an information collection. 

Proposed Project: The Higher 

Education Research and Development 

(R&D) Survey (formerly known as the 

Survey of R&D Expenditures at 

Universities and Colleges) originated in 

fiscal year (FY) 1954 and has been 

conducted annually since FY 1972. The 

survey represents one facet of the higher 

education component of the NSF’s 

National Center for Science and 

Engineering Statistics (NCSES) 

statistical program authorized by the 

America COMPETES Reauthorization 

Act of 2010 § 505, codified in the 

National Science Foundation Act of 

1950 (NSF Act), as amended, at 42 

U.S.C. 1862. The collection also 

includes the Federally Funded Research 

and Development (FFRDC) R&D survey, 

which has been conducted annually for 

all FFRDCs since 2001. Between 1953 

and 2001, only FFRDCs administered by 

academic institutions were surveyed. 

Use of the Information: The proposed 

project will continue the annual survey 

cycle for three years. The Higher 

Education R&D Survey will provide 

continuity of statistics on R&D 

expenditures by source of funding, type 

of R&D (basic research, applied 

research, or development), and field of 

research, with separate data requested 

on research equipment by field. 

Data are published in NSF’s annual 

publication series Higher Education 

Research and Development, available on 

the web at http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/ 

srvyherd/. 

The Federally Funded Research and 

Development Centers R&D survey will 

also provide continuity of statistics on 

R&D expenditures by source of funding 

(federal, state and local, business, 

nonprofit, or other, and federal agency 

source), and type of R&D (basic 

research, applied research, or 

development). Beginning with FY 2022, 

the FFRDC R&D survey will collect 

headcounts and full-time equivalents of 

R&D personnel (researchers, R&D 

technicians, and R&D support staff). 

Data are published in NSF’s annual 

publication series FFRDC Research and 

Development Survey, available on the 

web at https://www.nsf.gov/statistics/ 

srvyffrdc/. 

Expected respondents: The FY 2022 

Higher Education R&D Survey will be 

administered to approximately 650 

institutions. In addition, a shorter 

version of the survey asking for R&D 

expenditures by source of funding and 

broad field will be sent to 

approximately 275 institutions spending 

at least $150 thousand but less than $1 

million on R&D in their previous fiscal 

year. A short population review 

screener is also sent to approximately 

125 institutions before the survey cycle 

to identify potential eligible institutions 

not already in the survey frame. Finally, 

a survey requesting R&D expenditures 

by source of funds, cost categories, and 

type of R&D will be administered to the 

42 Federally Funded Research and 

Development Centers. 

Estimate of burden: The survey is a 

fully automated web data collection 

effort and is handled primarily by 

administrators in university sponsored 

programs and accounting offices. 

Response to this voluntary survey has 

exceeded 95 percent each year. 

The total annual calculated burden 

across all forms is 44,613 hours. 

Additional details on the burden 

calculation can be found in the first 

Federal Register Notice. This estimated 

burden includes 100 average annual 

burden hours requested for research on 

the development of national totals for 

R&D capital expenditures and 

depreciation of R&D assets. This 

research will be conducted in 2022 and 

2023.

Decommissioning Activities Report 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Public meeting and request for 

comment. 

SUMMARY: On December 4, 2019, Pacific 

Gas and Electric Company (PG&E, the 

licensee) submitted to the U.S. Nuclear 

Regulatory Commission (NRC) letters 

enclosing the post-shutdown 

decommissioning activities report 

(PSDAR), the site-specific 

decommissioning cost estimate 

(SSDCE), and the irradiated fuel 

management plan (IFMP), for the Diablo 

Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 

and 2 (Diablo Canyon, Units 1 and 2). 

The PSDAR, including the SSDCE and 

IFMP, provide an overview of PG&E’s 

planned activities, schedule, projected 

costs, and environmental impacts for 

the decommissioning of Diablo Canyon, 

Units 1 and 2. On February 21, 2020, the 

NRC solicited comments on these 

documents. Subsequently, PG&E 

submitted a notification of changes on 

October 19, 2021. The NRC planned to 

hold a public meeting in the vicinity of 

Diablo Canyon, Units 1 and 2, to discuss 

the PSDAR’s content, including the 

SSDCE and IFMP, and receive 

comments but decided to reschedule the 

public meeting due to concerns with the 

coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID–19) 

public health emergency. The NRC has 

rescheduled the public meeting to 

discuss the PSDAR, including the 

SSDCE and IFMP, and receive 

comments. 

DATES: The public meeting will be held 

on Thursday, July 21, 2022, from 6:00

II. Discussion 

PG&E is the holder of Facility 

Operating License Nos. DPR–80 and 

DPR–82 for Diablo Canyon, Units 1 and 

2, respectively. The license provides, 

among other things, that the facility is 

subject to all relevant rules, regulations, 

and orders of the NRC now or hereafter 

in effect. The facility consists of a pair 

of Westinghouse four loop pressurized 

water reactors located in San Luis 

Obispo County, California. By letter 

dated November 27, 2018, PG&E 

informed the NRC that it will 

permanently cease power operations at 

Diablo Canyon, Units 1 and 2, on 

November 2, 2024, and August 26, 2025, 

respectively. 

Paragraph 50.82(a)(4)(i) of title 10 of 

the Code of Federal Regulations (10 

CFR) states that a PSDAR must contain 

a description of the planned 

decommissioning activities along with a 

schedule for their accomplishment, a 

discussion that provides the reasons for 

concluding that the environmental 

impacts associated with site-specific 

decommissioning activities will be 

bounded by appropriate previously 

issued environmental impact 

statements, and an SSDCE, including 

the projected cost of managing 

irradiated fuel. 

Accordingly, pursuant to 10 CFR 

50.82(a)(4)(ii), the NRC noticed receipt 

of the Diablo Canyon, Units 1 and 2 

PSDAR, including the SSDCE and IFMP, 

and made them available for public 

comment on February 21, 2020 (85 FR 

10200). The public comment period 

closed on June 22, 2020. The purpose of 

the Federal Register notice (85 FR 

10200; February 21, 2020) was to inform 

the public of a meeting on March 19, 

2020, to discuss and accept comments 

on the PSDAR, including the SSDCE 

and IFMP. Due to the concerns of 

COVID–19, the NRC canceled the March 

19, 2020, public meeting (85 FR 15505; 

March 18, 2020). On October 19, 2021, 

PG&E submitted a notification of 

changes to the PSDAR, including the 

SSDCE and IFMP. 

III. Request for Comment and Public 

Meeting 

The NRC is requesting public 

comments on the PSDAR, including the 

SSDCE and IFMP, for Diablo Canyon, 

Units 1 and 2. The NRC is planning to 

hold the PSDAR meeting and receive 

comments on Thursday, July 21, 2022, 

from 6:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. (PT), at 

the San Luis Obispo County 

Government Building, located at 1055 

Monterey Street, in San Luis Obispo, 

California. Please contact Samson Lee

In the Matter of Dominion Energy 

Kewaunee, Inc.; Kewaunee Power 

Station and the Kewaunee Independent 

Spent Fuel Storage Installation 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Indirect transfer of license; 

order. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC, the Commission) is 

issuing an order approving the indirect 

transfer of Renewed Facility Operating 

License No. DPR–43 for the Kewaunee 

Power Station (KPS) and the general 

license for the KPS independent spent 

fuel storage installation, held by 

Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc. (DEK), 

to Kewaunee Solutions, Inc. (Kewaunee 

Solutions). The transfer assigns control 

of the licenses from DEK’s parent entity, 

Dominion Nuclear Projects, Inc. 

(Dominion), to EnergySolutions, LLC 

and reflects, concurrent with the 

transfer, the planned name change from 

DEK to Kewaunee Solutions. The NRC 

is also issuing a draft conforming 

amendment to the renewed facility 

operating license for administrative 

purposes to reflect the license transfer 

from DEK to Kewaunee Solutions. The 

NRC determined that Kewaunee 

Solutions, as a direct and wholly owned 

subsidiary of EnergySolutions, is 

qualified to be the holder of the licenses 

and that transfer of the licenses is 

otherwise consistent with applicable 

provisions of law, regulations, and 

orders issued by the Commission 

pursuant thereto, subject to the 

conditions set forth in the order. The 

order approving the indirect transfer of 

the licenses was effective on March 31, 

2022. 

DATES: The order was issued on March 

31, 2022 and is effective for 1 year.
