1. The Title of the Information
Collection: Voluntary Reporting of
Performance Indicators.
2. Current OMB Approval Number:
3150–0195.
3. How Often the Collection Is
Required: Quarterly.
4. Who Is Required or Asked To
Report: Power reactor licensees.
5. The Number of Annual
Respondents: 104 reactors.
6. The Number of Hours Needed
Annually To Complete the Requirement
or Request: 84,520 (83,200 hours for
reporting plus 1,320 recordkeeping
hours for 33 recordkeepers).
7. Abstract: As part of a joint industry-
NRC initiative, the NRC receives
information submitted voluntarily by
power reactor licensees regarding
selected performance attributes known
as performance indicators (PIs). PIs are
objective measures of the performance
of licensee systems or programs. The
NRC’s reactor oversight process uses PI
information, along with the results of
audits and inspections, as the basis for
NRC conclusions regarding plant
performance and necessary regulatory
response. Licensees transmit PIs
electronically to reduce burden on
themselves and the NRC.
Submit, by August 16, 2005,
comments that address the following
questions:
1. Is the proposed collection of
information necessary for the NRC to
properly perform its functions? Does the
information have practical utility?
2. Is the burden estimate accurate?
3. Is there a way to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected?
4. How can the burden of the
information collection be minimized,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology?

COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. 50–445 and 50–446]
TXU Generation Company, LP; Notice
of Withdrawal of Application for
Amendments to Facility Operating
Licenses
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (the Commission) has
granted the request of TXU Generation
Company, LP (the licensee) to withdraw
its August 5, 2004, application for
proposed amendment to Facility
Operating License No. NPF–87 and
Facility Operating License No. NPF–89
for Comanche Peak Steam Electric
Station, Units 1 and 2, respectively,
located in Somervell County, Texas.
The proposed amendments would
have revised the facility Technical
Specifications (TSs) pertaining to
control room emergency filtration/
pressurization system (CREFS). The
revised TSs would have added a new
condition for an inoperable control
room boundary with an opening
(breach) into the cable spreading room,
for an extended period of time (greater
than current 24 hours).
The Commission had previously
issued a Notice of Consideration of
Issuance of Amendment published in
the Federal Register on August 31, 2004
(69 FR 55114). However, by letter dated
May 18, 2005, the licensee withdrew the
proposed change.
For further details with respect to this
action, see the application for
amendment dated August 5, 2004, and
the licensee’s letter dated May 18, 2005,
which withdrew the application for
license amendment. Documents may be
examined, and/or copied for a fee, at the
NRC’s Public Document Room (PDR),
located at One White Flint North, Public
File Area O1 F21, 11555 Rockville Pike
(first floor), Rockville, Maryland.
