SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
INTEC TFF and TFF system consists of
eleven 300,000-gallon belowgrade
stainless-steel tanks in unlined concrete
vaults, four 30,000-gallon belowgrade
stainless-steel tanks, and associated
ancillary equipment and piping.
Historically, the TFF tanks were used to
store various INTEC wastes, including
those from reprocessing spent nuclear
fuel, decontamination waste, laboratory
waste, and contaminated liquids from
other INTEC operations. DOE has
initiated cleaning of the TFF and TFF
system, a process that includes
consolidating remaining wastes in the
minimum number of tanks necessary,
and then cleaning the empty tanks and
ancillary equipment and piping. After
completing cleaning operations, a small
amount of residual radioactive waste
that cannot be removed will remain in
the tanks and ancillary equipment and
ycherry on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
piping. DOE plans to stabilize the
residuals by filling the TFF and TFF
system with grout. The Secretary’s
Section 3116 Determination concludes
that the TFF and TFF system residuals
VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:42 Nov 27, 2006 Jkt 211001
will meet the criteria in NDAA Section
3116. Therefore, and pursuant to
Section 3116, that material is not HLW.
The Basis Document sets forth the
reasons supporting the Section 3116
Determination. DOE’s Amended Record
of Decision to close the TFF pursuant to
the Idaho High-Level Waste and
Facilities Disposition Final

 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 228 / Tuesday, November 28, 2006 / Notices
OMB regulations, the Agency may

EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR,
after appearing in the Federal Register

Abstract: With this ICR, we are
seeking permission to accept
notifications from gasoline retailers and
wholesale purchaser-consumers related
to commingling of ethanol blended and
non-ethanol-blended reformulated
gasoline (RFG) under section 1513 of the
Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct) and
40 CFR 80.78(a)(8)(ii)(B); and to provide
for a compliance option whereby a
retailer or wholesale purchaser-
consumer may demonstrate compliance
via test results under 40 CFR
80.78(a)(8)(iii)(A). These provisions are
designed to grant compliance flexibility.
An emergency ICR has been put in place
and expires on November 30, 2006. We
are requesting that the OMB renew this
ICR and request that it be effective for
three years after approval.

reporting and recordkeeping burden for
