SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(Pub. L. 104–13), ODNI is requesting 

extension in effect of SF 714, proposing 

no changes to the Form and its 

instructions at this time. ODNI invites 

the general public and other Federal 

agencies to comment on Standard Form 

714. The comments and suggestions 

should address one or more of the 

following points: (a) Whether the 

proposed information collection 

reflected in the Standard Form 714 

meets the intent of section 1.3 

(‘‘Financial Disclosure’’) of Executive 

Order 12968, as amended (‘‘Access to 

Classified Information’’); (b) the 

accuracy of the estimated burden of the 

proposed information collection for 

Standard Form 714; (c) ways to enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected in the 

Standard Form 714; (d) ways, including 

the use of information technology, to 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

information on all respondents to the 

Standard Form 714; and (e) whether 

small businesses are affected by this 

collection. The comments that are 

submitted will be summarized and 

included in the ODNI request for Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

approval. All comments will become a 

matter of public record. 

Abstract: The National Security Act of 

1947, as amended; section 3001 of the 

Intelligence Reform and Terrorism 

Prevention Act of 2004; and Executive 

Order 13467, ‘‘Reforming Processes 

Related to Suitability for Government 

Employment, Fitness for Contractor 

Employees, and Eligibility for Access to 

Classified National Security 

Information,’’ authorize the DNI, as the 

Security Executive Agent, to develop 

standard forms, including a standard 

financial disclosure form, that promotes 

uniformity and consistency in the 

implementation of the Government’s 

security programs. 

The Financial Disclosure Report 

contains information that is used to 

assist in making eligibility 

determinations for access to specifically 

designated classified information 

pursuant to Executive Order 12968, as 

amended, ‘‘Access to Classified 

Information.’’ The data may later be 

used as part of a review process to 

evaluate continued eligibility for access 

to such specifically designated 

classified information or as evidence in 

legal proceedings. In addition, law 

enforcement entities may use this data 

where pertinent to appropriate 

investigatory activity.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

National Science Foundation, as 

directed by the Antarctic Conservation 

Act of 1978 (Pub. L. 95–541), as 

amended by the Antarctic Science, 

Tourism and Conservation Act of 1996, 

has developed regulations for the 

establishment of a permit system for 

various activities in Antarctica and 

designation of certain animals and 

certain geographic areas a requiring 

special protection. The regulations 

establish such a permit system to 

designate Antarctic Specially Protected 

Areas. 

Application Details

012 

Dr. Diana H. Wall, Natural Resource 

Ecology Lab, Dept. 1499, Colorado 

State University, Fort Collins, CO 

80526–1499 

Activity for Which Permit Is 

Requested: ASPA entry, Import. 

Applicant wishes to enter Cape Royds 

ASPA 121 to collect soil samples and 

associated invertebrates as well as 

benthic algal mats and underlying soil. 

This project follows up on several past 

surveys of orthinogenic soils conducted 

in this ASPA which examined 

invertebrate genetic distribution, and 

also explores the influence of climate 

change on soil invertebrate populations. 

The algae sampling is to also follow up 

on previous surveys, to examine the 

temporal stability of lake algal 

communities in the region. Soil samples 

of approximately 600 grams each would 

be collected at up to 30 sites within the 

ASPA using sterile collecting 

techniques. For benthic algae, at 6 sites 

along the shore of Poly Lake, the 

applicant and team would use a 

sanitized 2cm copper coring apparatus 

to collect, by hand, 4 replicates of 

surface algal mats and 1–2 cm of 

underlying sediment. Samples would be 

transported back to the US for further 

study. 

Location: ASPA 121 Cape Royds. 

Dates: January 1, 2015–February 15, 

2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The NRC is considering renewal of 

CBR’s Source Materials License SUA– 

1534 for continued uranium production 

operations and ISR of uranium at the 

Crow Butte Project in Crawford, 

Nebraska. The applicant is proposing 

continued ISR operations and 

processing materials into yellowcake to 

be shipped for conversion. The NRC 

staff has prepared an Environmental 

Assessment (EA) in support of this 

proposed license renewal, in accordance 

with the requirements in Part 51 of Title 

10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 

(10 CFR). The NRC staff has also 

completed a safety evaluation of the 

proposed license renewal, pursuant to 

10 CFR Part 40, and the results of the 

safety evaluation are documented in a 

separate Safety Evaluation Report (SER), 

ADAMS Accession No. ML14149A433. 

If approved, the NRC will issue the 

renewed license following the 

publication of this notice. The new 

license will also be made publicly 

available in ADAMS. 

II. Environmental Assessment 

Summary 

On November 27, 2007, CBR 

submitted an application to the NRC to 

extend the current NRC License SUA– 

1534 for an additional 10 years of 

operation (ADAMS Accession Nos. 

ML073480266, ML073480272, 

ML073480274, and ML073480267). The 

proposed action would permit CBR to 

continue ISR operations and yellowcake 

production at the CBR facility. The ISR 

operations require an extraction step 

and a uranium recovery step. Extraction 

is accomplished by installing a series of 

injection wells through which barren 

lixiviant (a mixture of groundwater 

charged with oxygen and bicarbonate) is 

pumped into an underground geological 

formation containing uranium deposits 

(the ore body). Corresponding 

production wells and pumps promote 

flow through the ore body and allow for 

the collection of uranium-rich pregnant 

lixiviant. Uranium is removed from the 

pregnant lixiviant by ion exchange, and 

then from the ion exchange resin by 

elution. After the uranium is removed, 

the lixiviant can then be recharged and
