I. Introduction
The NRC is amending its regulations in parts 1, 2, 4, 7, 9, 11, 15, 19, 20, 21, 25, 26, 30, 32, 37, 40, 50, 51, 52, 55, 60, 61, 62, 63, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 76, 81, 95, 100, 110, 140, 150, 170, and 171 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) to make miscellaneous corrections. These changes include renaming the Office of Information Services, renaming the Computer Security Office and removing it as a standalone office, capitalizing the words Tribe, Tribes, and Tribal, correcting a Web site address, correcting a misspelling, removing a submission requirement, correcting an email address, correcting a room number, removing a Federal Register notice requirement, and adding missing information collection references. This document is necessary to inform the public of these non-substantive changes to the NRC's regulations.
II. Summary of Changes
10 CFR Part 1
Remove Office. This final rule removes and reserves § 1.38. The Computer Security Office has been renamed the Information Security Directorate and will now be part of the Office of the Chief Information Officer. The Information Security Directorate information is now included as new paragraphs (h) through (l) under § 1.35. Additional editorial changes have been Start Printed Page 74975made as the result of adding the new paragraphs. Also, in § 1.3, paragraph (c), the phrase “Information and Records Services Division” is being removed as reference to the Office is sufficient information.
10 CFR Parts 1, 2, 4, 7, 9, 11, 15, 19, 20, 21, 25, 26, 30, 37, 40, 50, 51, 52, 55, 60, 61, 62, 63, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 76, 81, 95, 100, 110, 140, 150, 170, and 171
Rename Office. This final rule removes all references to the office name “Office of Information Services” and replaces them with the new office name “Office of the Chief Information Officer.”
10 CFR Parts 1, 2, 7, 32, 40, 51, 61, 71, 72, 73, and 150
Capitalize The Words Tribe, Tribes, And Tribal. This final rule capitalizes all references of “Tribe,” “Tribes,” and “Tribal.” These changes are being made so that these terms are used consistently in the NRC's regulations.
10 CFR Part 37
Correct Web site Address. In § 37.77(a)(1), this final rule removes the incorrect Web site address “https://nrc.stp.ornl.gov/special/designee.pdf” and replaces it with the correct Web site address “https://scp.nrc.gov/special/designee.pdf.”
10 CFR Part 50
Correct Misspelling. In § 50.34(f)(3)(v)(A)(1) and (B)(1), this final rule removes the misspelled term “subsubarticle” and replaces it with the correct term “subarticle.”
Remove Submission Requirement In section V, of appendix E, this final rule removes the requirement on nuclear power plant licensees to submit any changes to their emergency plans or procedures to the Commission, as specified in § 50.4, within 30 days. Changes to an emergency plan, however, must still be reported to the NRC or requested in a license amendment application as required in 10 CFR 50.54(q). With regard to changes to procedures that are required to be submitted under appendix E, section V only, and not under 10 CFR 50.54(q), the NRC has found that these changes consist of administrative information that is inconsequential to the NRC's licensing or regulatory oversight activities (such as address changes and phone number changes). Even after the effective date of this rule, these changes to procedures will remain subject to NRC inspection. Thus, the change to appendix E, section V will reduce the regulatory burden on the licensee and the administrative burden on the NRC staff without impacting the NRC's oversight and inspection of nuclear power plant licensees. For these reasons, this rule reflects a non-substantive change of a duplicative requirement where notice-and-comment is unnecessary under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)).
10 CFR Part 51
Correct Email Address. In § 51.123(a) and (b), this final rule removes the incorrect email address “distribution@nrc.gov” and replaces it with the correct email address “distribution.resource@nrc.gov.”
10 CFR Part 55
Correct Office Room Number. In Footnote 1 of § 55.40, this final rule removes the incorrect room number for the NRC Public Document “(0-1 F23)” and replaces it with the correct room number “(O-1 F21).”
10 CFR Part 71
Remove Federal Register Notice Requirement. In § 71.97(c)(3)(ii), this rule removes the requirement that changes to the list of governor's designees and Tribal official's designees of participating Tribes be published annually in the Federal Register on or about June 30th. This section will now direct stakeholders to the NRC's public Web site where the most accurate information is available. This change also conforms this section to §§ 37.77(a)(1) and 73.37(b)(2).
10 CFR Part 73
Add Missing Information Collection References. In § 73.8, this final rule adds sections “73.23” and “73.51” to the list of sections in 10 CFR part 73 that contain information collections. These two sections were added to § 73.8 in a final rule dated July 6, 2012 (77 FR 39909), and were inadvertently removed in a final rule published on May 20, 2013 (78 FR 29550).
Correct Web site Address. In § 73.37(b)(2), this final rule removes the incorrect Web site address “https://nrc.stp.ornl.gov/special/designee.pdf” and replaces it with the correct Web site address “https://scp.nrc.gov/special/designee.pdf.”
III. Rulemaking Procedure
Under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)), an agency may waive the normal notice and comment requirements if it finds, for good cause, that they are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. As authorized by 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), the NRC finds good cause to waive notice and opportunity for comment on the amendments, because notice and opportunity for comment are unnecessary. The amendments will have no substantive impact and are of a minor and administrative nature dealing with corrections to certain CFRs related only to management, organization, procedure, and practice. Specifically, the revisions rename offices, capitalize words, correct a Web site address, correct a misspelling, remove a submission requirement, correct an email address, correct a room number, remove a Federal Register notice requirement, and add missing information collection references.
The Commission is exercising its authority under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B) to publish these amendments as a final rule. The amendments are effective December 31, 2015. These amendments do not require action by any person or entity regulated by the NRC. Also, the final rule does not change the substantive responsibilities of any person or entity regulated by the NRC.
IV. Environmental Impact: Categorical Exclusion
The NRC has determined that this final rule is the type of action described in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(2), which categorically excludes from environmental review rules that are corrective or of a minor, nonpolicy nature and do not substantially modify existing regulations. Therefore, neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental assessment has been prepared for this rule.
V. Paperwork Reduction Act Statement
This final rule does not contain a collection of information as defined in the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and, therefore, is not subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The final rule, however, makes a non-substantive modification to an information collection, as the final rule eliminates a collection of information previously contained in 10 CFR part 50, appendix E, section V. The collection of information was approved by the Office of Management and Budget, approval number 3150-0011.
Public Protection Notification
The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.
VI. Plain Writing
The Plain Writing Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-274) requires Federal agencies to Start Printed Page 74976write documents in a clear, concise, and well-organized manner. The NRC has written this document to be consistent with the Plain Writing Act as well as the Presidential Memorandum, “Plain Language in Government Writing,” published June 10, 1998 (63 FR 31883).
VII. Backfitting and Issue Finality
The NRC has determined that the corrections in this final rule do not constitute backfitting and are not inconsistent with any of the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. The revisions are non-substantive in nature, including renaming offices, capitalizing words, correcting a Web site address, correcting a misspelling, removing a submission requirement, correcting an email address, correcting a room number, removing a Federal Register notice requirement, and adding missing information collection references. They impose no new requirements and make no substantive changes to the regulations. The corrections do not involve any provisions that would impose backfits as defined in 10 CFR chapter I, or would be inconsistent with the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. For these reasons, the issuance of the rule in final form would not constitute backfitting or represent an inconsistency with any of the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. Therefore, the NRC has not prepared any additional documentation for this correction rulemaking addressing backfitting or issue finality.
