DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
Federal Emergency Management Agency
[Docket ID FEMA-2010-0007]
Fee for Services To Support FEMA's Offsite Radiological Emergency
Preparedness Program
AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has established
a fiscal year (FY) 2010 hourly rate of $53.72 for assessing and
collecting fees from Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) licensees for
services provided by FEMA personnel for FEMA's Radiological Emergency
Preparedness (REP) Program.
DATES: This hourly rate is effective for FY 2010 (October 1, 2009, to
September 30, 2010).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: James R. Kish, Director, Technological
Hazards Division, Department of Homeland Security/FEMA, 1800 S. Bell
Street--CC845, Mail Stop 3025, Arlington, VA 20598-3025; (202) 212-2205
(phone); or [email protected] (e-mail).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As authorized in 42 U.S.C. 5196e, FEMA will
be charging an hourly user fee rate of $53.72 to NRC licensees of
commercial nuclear power plants for all REP Program exercise-specific
related services provided by FEMA personnel as described in 44 CFR part
354. FEMA will deposit these funds in the REP Program Fund to offset
the actual costs by FEMA for its REP Program.
FEMA established the hourly rate on the basis of the methodology
set forth in 44 CFR 354.4(b), ``Determination of site-specific biennial
exercise related component for [FEMA] personnel.'' FEMA will use the
rate to assess and collect fees for site-specific biennial exercise
related services rendered by FEMA personnel. This hourly rate only
addresses charges to NRC licensees for services that FEMA personnel
provide under the site-specific biennial exercise component, not
charges for services FEMA personnel provide under the flat fee
component referenced at 44 CFR 354.4(d), and not for services that FEMA
contractors provide.
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 5196(e), 44 CFR part 354.
W. Craig Fugate,
Administrator, Federal Emergency Management Agency.
