ACTION: Regulatory guide; issuance.
AGENCY:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing revision 1
to Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.214,
‘‘Response Strategies for Potential
Aircraft Threats.’’ The revision contains
updated references and minor
corrections. The revision does not
contain substantive changes in the NRC
staff’s regulatory positions. The guide
describes a method that the NRC staff
considers acceptable for applicants for,
and holders of, nuclear power plant
licenses to comply with NRC
requirements to develop, implement,
and maintain procedures for responding
to potential aircraft threats.
ADDRESSES: The document will be made
available for those individuals who have
established a ‘‘need-to-know’’ and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The NRC is issuing a revision to an
existing guide in the NRC’s ‘‘Regulatory
Guide’’ series. Regulatory guides were
developed to describe and make
available to the public, to the extent
possible, information and methods that
are acceptable to the NRC staff for
implementing specific parts of the
agency’s regulations, techniques that the
staff uses in evaluating specific
problems or postulated accidents, and
data that the staff needs in its review of
applications for permits and licenses.
The NRC typically seeks public
comment on a draft version of a
regulatory guide by announcing its
availability for comment in the Federal
Register. However, as explained in
section III.F. of the Handbook for NRC
Management Directive 6.6, ‘‘Regulatory
Guides’’ (Agencywide Documents
Access and Management System
Accession No. ML110330475), the NRC
may directly issue a final regulatory
guide without a draft version or public
comment period if the changes to the
regulatory guide are non-substantive.
Furthermore, RG 1.214 is withheld from
public disclosure but is available to
those affected licensees and cleared
stakeholders who can or have
demonstrated a ‘‘need-to-know.’’
The NRC is issuing Revision 1 of RG
1.214 directly as a final regulatory guide
because the changes between Revision 0
and Revision 1 are non-substantive.
This revision of RG 1.214 incorporates
editorial changes, updates the guide to
conform to the current format for
regulatory guides, and updates
references to related guidance for
emergency preparedness (EP). These
changes are intended to improve clarity
of the guidance and alignment with the
EP requirements in part 50 of Title 10
of the Code of Federal Regulations (10
CFR), Appendix E, and do not alter the
staff regulatory guidance.
II. Backfitting and Issue Finality
Issuance of this final regulatory guide
does not constitute backfitting as
defined in 10 CFR 50.109 (the Backfit
Rule) and is not otherwise inconsistent
with the issue finality provisions in 10

PO 00000

Frm 00081

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

CFR part 52. The changes in Revision 1
of RG 1.214 are limited to editorial
changes to improve clarity of the
guidance and alignment with the EP
requirements in 10 CFR part 50,
Appendix E. These changes do not fall
within the kinds of agency actions that
constitute backfitting or are subject to
limitations in the issue finality
provisions of 10 CFR part 52.
Accordingly, the NRC did not address
the Backfit Rule or issue finality
provisions of 10 CFR part 52.
III. Congressional Review Act
This action is not a rule as defined in
the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C.
801–808).
IV. Submitting Suggestions for
Improvement of Regulatory Guides
Revision 1 of RG 1.214 is being issued
without an opportunity for comment.
However, you may at any time submit
suggestions to the NRC for improvement
of existing regulatory guides or for the
development of new regulatory guides
to address new issues. The input
received will be considered in future
updates and enhancements of the
regulatory guide. Please coordinate with
James Vaughn from the NRC’s Office of
Nuclear Security and Incident Response
(telephone: 301–287–3686 or email:
james.vaughn@nrc.gov) regarding the
drafting and transmission of such
comments in order to protect comments
that contain OUO–SRI information.

requirements, decisions on superior
qualification appointments, temporary
appointments outside a register, and
employee status determinations.
Authority for making decisions on many
of these actions has also been delegated
to agencies. The records retained by the
Office on such actions and copies of
such files retained by the agency
submitting the request to the Office,
along with records that agencies
maintain as a result of the Office’s
delegations of authorities, are
considered part of this system of
records.
h. Records retained to support
Schedule A appointments of severely
physically handicapped individuals,
retained both by the Office and agencies
acting under the Office delegated
authorities, are part of this system.
i. Agency applicant supply file
systems (when the agency retains
applications, resumes, and other related
records for hard-to-fill or unique
positions, for future consideration),
along with any pre-employment
vouchers obtained in connection with
an agency’s processing of an
application, are included in this system.
j. Records derived from the Officedeveloped or agency-developed
assessment center exercises.
k. Case files related to medical
suitability determinations and appeals.
l. Records related to an applicant’s
examination for use of illegal drugs
under provisions of Executive Order
12564. Such records may be retained by
the agency (e.g., evidence of confirmed
positive test results) or by a contractor
laboratory (e.g., the record of the testing
of an applicant, whether negative, or
confirmed or unconfirmed positive test
result).
NOTE 1:

Only Routine Use ‘p’ identified for
this system of records is applicable to
records relating to drug testing under
Executive Order 12564. Further, such
records shall be disclosed only to a very
limited number of officials within the
agency, generally only to the agency
Medical Review Official (MRO), the
administrator of the agency Employee
Assistance Program, and any
supervisory or management official
within the employee’s agency having
authority to take the adverse personnel
action against the employee.
NOTE 2:

OPM does not intend that records
created by agencies in connection with
the agency’s Merit Promotion Plan
program be included in the term
‘Applicant Supply File’ as used within
this notice. It is OPM’s position that

E:\FR\FM\26MRN1.SGM

26MRN1

16836

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 58 / Wednesday, March 26, 2014 / Notices

Merit Promotion Plan records are not a
system of records within the meaning of
the Privacy Act as such records are
usually filed by a vacancy
announcement number or some other
key that is not a unique personnel
identifier. Agencies may choose to
consider such records as within the
meaning of a system of records as used
in the Privacy Act, but if they do so,
they are solely responsible for
implementing Privacy Act requirements,
including establishment and notice of a
system of records pertaining to such
records.
NOTE 3:

To the extent that an agency utilizes
an automated medium in connection
with maintenance of records in this
system, the automated versions of these
records are considered covered by this
system of records.
AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM:

5 U.S.C. 1302, 3109, 3301, 3302, 3304,
3305, 3306, 3307, 309, 3313, 3317, 3318,
3319, 3326, 4103, 4723, 5532, and 5533,
and Executive Order 9397.
PURPOSE(S):

The records are used in considering
individuals who have applied for
positions in the Federal service by
making determinations of qualifications
including medical qualifications, for
positions applied for, and to rate and
rank applicants applying for the same or
similar positions. They are also used to
refer candidates to Federal agencies for
employment consideration, including
appointment, transfer, reinstatement,
reassignment, or promotion. Records
derived from the Office-developed or
agency-developed assessment center
exercises may be used to determine
training needs of participants. These
records may also be used to locate
individuals for personnel research.

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES:

Information in this system of records
comes from the individual to whom it
applies or is derived from information
the individual supplied, reports from
medical personnel on physical
qualifications, results of examinations
that are made known to applicants,
agencies, and OPM records, and
vouchers supplied by references or
other sources that the applicant lists or
that are developed.
SYSTEMS EXEMPTED FROM CERTAIN PROVISIONS
OF THE ACT:

This system contains investigative
materials that are used solely to

E:\FR\FM\26MRN1.SGM

26MRN1

sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

16838

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 58 / Wednesday, March 26, 2014 / Notices

determine the appropriateness of a
request for approval of an objection to
an eligible’s qualifications for Federal
civilian employment or vouchers
received during the processing of an
application. The Privacy Act, at 5 U.S.C.
552a(k)(5), permits an agency to exempt
such investigative material from certain
provisions of the Act, to the extent that
release of the material to the individual
whom the information is about would—
a. Reveal the identity of a source who
furnished information to the
Government under an express promise
(granted on or after September 27, 1975)
that the identity of the source would be
held in confidence; or
b. Reveal the identity of a source who,
prior to September 27, 1975, furnished
information to the Government under an
implied promise that the identity of the
source would be held in confidence.
This system contains testing and
examination materials used solely to
determine individual qualifications for
appointment or promotion in the
Federal service. The Privacy Act, at 5
U.S.C. 552a(k)(6), permits an agency to
exempt all such testing or examination
material and information from certain
provisions of the Act, when disclosure
of the material would compromise the
objectivity or fairness of the testing or
examination process. OPM has claimed
exemptions from the requirements of 5
U.S.C. 552a(d), which relate to access to
and amendment of records.
The specific material exempted
include, but are not limited to, the
following

Extension:
Schedule TO.

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget the
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Schedule TO (17 CFR 240.14d–100)
must be filed by a reporting company
that makes a tender offer for its own
securities. Also, persons other than the
reporting company making a tender
offer for equity securities registered

Frm 00085

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

under Section 12 of the Exchange Act
(15 U.S.C. 78l) (which offer, if
consummated, would cause that person
to own over 5% of that class of the
securities) must file a Schedule TO. The
purpose of Schedule TO is to improve
communications between public
companies and investors before
companies file registration statements
involving tender offer statements. This
information is made available to the
public. The information provided on
Schedule TO is mandatory. Schedule
TO takes approximately 43.5 hours per
response and is filed by approximately
820 issuers annually. We estimate that
50% of the 43.5 hours per response
(21.75 hours) is prepared by the issuer
for an annual reporting burden of 17,835
hours (21.75 hours per response × 820
responses).
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid
control number.
The public may view the background
documentation for this information
collection at the following Web site,
www.reginfo.gov . Comments should be
directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the
Securities and Exchange Commission,
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, Room 10102, New Executive
Office Building, Washington, DC 20503,
or by sending an email to: Shagufta_
Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Thomas
Bayer, Director/Chief Information
Officer, Securities and Exchange
Commission, c/o Remi Pavlik-Simon,

or send an email to: PRA_Mailbox@
sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to
OMB within 30 days of this notice.
Dated: March 20, 2014.
