Pennsylvania is home to three of the 10 U.S. nuclear power plants most vulnerable to an earthquake, including the Beaver Valley plant in Shippingport, according to Nuclear Regulatory Commission data. The federal agency that oversees nuclear energy evaluates the nation's 104 nuclear power reactors for the chance of an earthquake causing a catastrophic failure each year, based on 2008 and 1989 geological data.

The EIA, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, intends to extend for three years, Form NWPA-830G ``Appendix G-- Standard Remittance Advice for Payment of Fees (including Annex A to Appendix G),'' with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) is closing a petition for rulemaking (PRM-31-5) submitted by the Organization of Agreement States, Inc. (OAS). The petition requested that the NRC amend its regulations to strengthen the regulation of radioactive materials by requiring a specific license for higher- activity devices that are currently available under a general license, and change the compatibility designation of applicable regulations from category B to category C. The petition also addresses a request filed by the Florida Department of Health, Bureau of Radiation Control, to change the compatibility category of a certain part of the applicable regulation from category B to category C.
