SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Exports of

electricity from the United States to a

foreign country are regulated and

require authorization under section

202(e) of the Federal Power Act (FPA)

(16 U.S.C. 824a(e)).

On February 6, 2001, the Office of

Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of

Energy (DOE) received an application

from OERI to transmit electric energy

from the United States to Canada. OERI

is an Oklahoma corporation created for

the purposes of marketing electricity,

natural gas and other energy

commodities throughout North

America. OERI will purchase the power

to be exported from electric utilities and

Federal power marketing agencies in the

United States.

OERI proposes to arrange for the

delivery of electric energy to Canada

over the existing international

transmission facilities owned by Basin

Electric Power Cooperative, Bonneville

Power Administration, Citizens Utilities

Co., Detroit Edison Company, Eastern

Maine Electric Cooperative, Joint

Owners of the Highgate Project, Long

Sault, Inc., Maine Electric Power

Company, Maine Public Service

Company, Minnesota Power and Light

Inc., Minnkota Power Cooperative, New

York Power Authority, Niagara Mohawk

Power Corporation, Northern States

Power, and Vermont Electric

Transmission Company. The

construction, operation, maintenance,

and connection of each of the

international transmission facilities to

be utilized by OERI, as more fully

described in the application, has

previously been authorized by a

Presidential permit issued pursuant to

Executive Order 10485, as amended.

party to this proceeding or to be heard

by filing comments or protests to this

application should file a petition to

intervene, comment or protest at the

address provided above in accordance

NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

[Docket No. A–2000–38; FRL–6945–8]

Interagency Steering Committee on

Radiation Standards (ISCORS)

Cleanup Subcommittee: Draft

Approach for Developing a Web

Accessible Catalog of Dose and Risk

Models and Their Capabilities, and

Guidance to Users Regarding the

Selection of Dose and Risk Models

AGENCY: U.S. Environmental Protection

Agency, U.S. Department of Energy, and

the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission.

ACTION: Notice of availability and

comment.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA), U.S.

Department of Energy (DOE), and the

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission

(NRC) are announcing the availability

for comment of the draft document,

Approach for Developing a Web

Accessible Catalog of Dose and Risk

Models and their Capabilities. The

purpose of the document is twofold and

is organized in two Sections: Section 1

is to provide model users with general

guidance and performance

considerations regarding how to select

radiation dose and risk assessment

models for use in site cleanup activities

and decision making; Section 2 is to

provide a catalog of available dose and

risk models, to include descriptions of

each model’s attributes and performance

capabilities in response to the model

selection and performance

considerations presented in Section 1.

The complete document will be in the

form of an ‘‘on-line catalog’’ accessible

via the Internet, where model users can

directly download guidance and

information on model capabilities, and

model developers can directly input

performance information concerning

their models. It will combine

information that has been developed by

ISCORS member agencies regarding

model selection criteria with the

capabilities of specific models. The

public comment period for the

document containing the model

selection criteria will last 120 days from

the date of this notice. Specifically, we

are seeking comments on: (1) The

general approach for the document and

use of the Internet for model user and

developer access for uploading and

downloading information; and (2) the

proposed guidance and set of questions

to assist a user in selecting an

appropriate model that is responsive to

the user’s needs. Comments should be

sent to the EPA or NRC docket or to the

agency contacts listed below. Following

the close of the comment period, the

agencies will review the public

comments and suggested changes will

be incorporated, where appropriate, in

response to those comments. A final

draft of the model selection criteria will

then be made available to the public.

Model-specific capabilities will then be

added by model users and developers.

DATES: Comments received by June 21,

2001 will be considered. Comments

received after that date will be

considered if it is practical to do so, but

no assurance can be given for

consideration of late comments.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the draft

document may be examined or copied

for a fee at the EPA Docket Room
