DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment Standards Administration

Wage and Hour Division; Minimum

Wages for Federal and Federally

Assisted Construction; General Wage

Determination Decisions

General wage determination decisions

of the Secretary of Labor are issued in

accordance with applicable law and are

based on the information obtained by

the Department of Labor from its study

of local wage conditions and data made

available from other sources. They

specify the basic hourly wage rates and

fringe benefits which are determined to

be prevailing for the described classes of

laborers and mechanics employed on

construction projects of a similar

character and in the localities specified

therein.

The determinations in these decisions

of prevailing rates and fringe benefits

have been made in accordance with 29

CFR Part 1, by authority of the Secretary

of Labor pursuant to the provisions of

the Davis-Bacon Act of March 3, 1931,

as amended (46 Stat. 1494, as amended,

40 U.S.C. 276a) and of other Federal

statutes referred to in 29 CFR Part 1,

Appendix, as well as such additional

statutes as may form time to time be

enacted containing provisions for the

payment of wages determined to be

prevailing by the Secretary of Labor in

accordance with the Davis-Bacon Act.

The prevailing rates and fringe benefits

determined in these decisions shall, in

accordance with the provisions of the

foregoing statutes, constitute the

minimum wages payable on Federal and

federally assisted construction projects

to laborers and mechanics of the

specified classes engaged on contract

work of the character and in the

localities described therein.

Good cause is hereby found for not

utilizing notice and public comment

procedure thereon prior to the issuance

of these determinations as prescribed in

5 U.S.C. 553 and not providing for delay

in the effective date as prescribed in that

section, because the necessity to issue

current construction industry wage

determinations frequently and in large

volume causes procedures to be

impractical and contrary to the public

interest.

General wage determination

decisions, and modifications and

supersedeas decisions thereto, contain

no expiration dates and are effective

from their date of notice in the Federal

Register, or on the date written notice

is received by the agency, whichever is

earlier. These decisions are to be used

in accordance with the provisions of 29

CFR Parts 1 and 5. Accordingly, the

applicable decision, together with any

modifications issued, must be made a

part of every contract for performance of

the described work within the

geographic area indicated as required by

an applicable Federal prevailing wage

law and 29 CFR Part 5. The wage rates

and fringe benefits, notice of which is

published herein, and which are

contained in the Government Printing

Office (GPO) document entitled

‘‘General Wage Determinations Issued

The Davis-Bacon And Related Acts,’’

shall be the minimum paid by

contractors and subcontractors to

laborers and mechanics.

Any person, organization, or

governmental agency having an interest

in the rates determined as prevailing is

encouraged to submit wage rate and

fringe benefit information for

consideration by the Department.

Further information and selfexplanatory forms for the purpose of

submitting this data may be obtained by

NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50–317 and 50–318]

Baltimore Gas and Electric Company;

Notice of Consideration of Issuance of

Amendment to Facility Operating

License, Proposed No Significant

Hazards Consideration Determination,

and Opportunity for a Hearing

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (the Commission) is

considering issuance of an amendment

to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR–

53 and DPR–69, issued to Baltimore Gas

and Electric Company (BGE) for

operation of the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear

Plant Unit Nos. 1 and 2 located in

Calvert County, Maryland.

The proposed amendment would

replace the mechanical stops in the inlet

control valves of the containment air

coolers (CACs) with a variable flow

controller for the inlet control valve.

The licensee requests that this

proposed amendment be considered as

exigent under the criteria of 10 CFR

50.91(a)(6). The licensee states that they

could not have foreseen the need for

this request prior to this time. This

modification is the result of a

substantial proactive effort in dealing

with the concerns that BGE have with

their Service Water (SRW) System. The

history of BGE’s activities concerning

the SRW System is given in Attachment

(1) of the proposed amendment. This

particular modification was determined

to be necessary after BGE obtained data

from a site stream monitor that BGE had

installed to measure the rate of

microfouling in the SRW heat

exchangers. The data from the side

stream monitor was not analyzed and

available to BGE until January 17, 1996.

By mid-February, BGE had determined

that the installation of flow controllers

on the CAC inlet valves was necessary

to offset the effects of the larger than

expected microfouling. BGE has

committed the necessary money and

resources to install this modification

before the summer. Design and

procurement activities were done in

parallel. About mid-April, the

engineering was to the stage that work

could begin on the safety evaluation

(SE) required by 10 CFR 50.59.

Refinements to the engineering

continued even as the SE was being

developed. On May 24, 1996, the Plant

General Manager determined that an

unreviewed safety question existed for

this modification. This request has been

submitted as soon as practical after the

determination was made.

It is important for BGE to perform this

modification on the schedule set out a

number of months ago. To prevent

operational and safety impacts, this

modification must be installed before

the hot summer weather causes the

Chesapeake Bay water temperature to

exceed the SRW temperature limit.

Historically, the Chesapeake Bay water

temperature has approached or

exceeded the current limit by the last

week in June. As noted above, whenever

the SRW heat exchangers are removed

from service for cleaning, some safetyrelated equipment is rendered

inoperable. It is important to minimize

the amount of time BGE is in these more

vulnerable conditions (with some

safety-related equipment out-of-service).

Additionally, BGE believes that

reducing the power output from both

units significantly during a time of high

demand (high summer temperatures) is

not in the best interest of the public.

Therefore, given the need to act

quickly, and the determination that this

change does not represent a significant

hazard, BGE requests that this

amendment be considered under

exigent circumstances as described in

10 CFR 50.91(a)(6).

Before issuance of the proposed

license amendment, the Commission

will have made findings required by the

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended

(the Act) and the Commission’s

regulations.

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.91(a)(6) for

amendments to be granted under

exigent circumstances, the NRC staff

must determine that the amendment

request involves no significant hazards

consideration. Under the Commission’s

regulations in 10 CFR 50.92, this means

that operation of the facility in

accordance with the proposed

amendment would not (1) involve a

significant increase in the probability or

consequences of an accident previously

evaluated; or (2) create the possibility of

a new or different kind of accident from

any accident previously evaluated; or

(3) involve a significant reduction in a

margin of safety. As required by 10 CFR

50.91(a), the licensee has provided its

analysis of the issue of no significant

hazards consideration, which is

presented below:

1. Would not involve a significant increase

in the probability or consequences of an

accident previously evaluated.

The proposed modification is the result of

our need to reduce the peak post-accident

heat load on the service water (SRW) heat

exchangers. It will replace the mechanical

stops currently on the control valves which

admit SRW into the containment air coolers

(CACs) with a flow controller loop. By

throttling the SRW to the CACs, the heat load

on the SRW heat exchangers is reduced

during the early phases of an accident. The

increased accuracy of throttling would allow

the SRW system to perform its safety

function during periods of high ultimate heat

sink temperatures. During the summer

months, the Chesapeake Bay water (the

ultimate heat sink for the units) heats up

substantially during some parts of the day. At

times, these high temperatures could exceed

the current expected limits for the heat

exchanger operation. With the more

accurately throttled valves, the effect of high

ultimate heat sink temperatures is reduced.

The modification will ensure that the SRW

heat exchangers are capable of meeting their

intended safety function up to the maximum

expected bay water temperature.

The safety function of the SRW System is

to provide cooling to the CACs and the

Emergency Diesel Generators (EDGs)

following a design basis accident. With this

proposed modification in place, the SRW

System will continue to meet this safety

function. All of the failure mechanisms for

this modification have previously been

evaluated and were found acceptable.

However, because the proposed modification

may have a higher probability of malfunction

for which compensatory actions may not

adequately control the consequence of

failure, the probability of a malfunction of

systems important to safety may be slightly

increased, and this modification has been

determined to be an unreviewed safety

question.

The single failure of the flow controllers

would not be an initiator to an accident. The

system provides cooling to safety-related

equipment following an accident. It supports

accident mitigation functions. Therefore, this

proposed modification does not significantly

increase the probability of an accident

previously evaluated.

The proposed modification will enhance

the ability of the SRW system to respond to

accident conditions under a wider range of
