NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

 

Documents Containing Reporting or Recordkeeping Requirements: 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to the OMB for review the 
following proposal for the collection of information under the 
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 
35).
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
    2. The title of the information collection: Proposed Rule, 10 CFR 
Part 54, ``Nuclear Power Plant License Renewal.''
    3. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
    4. How often collection is required: One-time submission with 
application for renewal of an operating license for a nuclear power 
plant and occasional collections for holders of renewed licenses.
    5. Who will be required or requested to report: Commercial nuclear 
power plant licensees who wish to renew their operating licenses.
    6. An estimate of the number of responses: As many as 100 licensees 
may take advantage of this provision over the next 30 years. It is 
anticipated that three or four responses will be received on average 
each year.
    7. An estimate of the total number of hours needed to complete this 
requirement: The estimated burden on the licensee is being reduced from 
approximately 135,000 hours to 94,000 hours per license renewal.
    8. An indication of whether Section 3504(h), Pub. L. 96-511 
applies: Applicable.
    9. Abstract: The license renewal rule (10 CFR Part 54) which was 
completed in December 1991, established procedures, criteria, and 
standards governing nuclear power plant license renewal, including 
information submittal and recordkeeping requirements. However, many of 
the details of the current rule are not clear with respect to 
requirements and procedures. The proposed rule amendment clarifies the 
requirements, eliminates unnecessary terminology, and simplifies the 
Integrated Plant Assessment to focus only on those passive, long-lived, 
nonredundant structures and components, whose functionality is not 
easily verified through performance or condition monitoring.
    Copies of the submittal can be inspected or obtained for a fee from 
the NRC Public Document Room, 2120 L Street NW., Lower Level, 
Washington, DC 20037.
    Comments and questions should be directed by mail to the OMB 
reviewer: Troy Hiller, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
(3150-0155), NEOB-3019, Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC 
20503.
    Comments can also be submitted by telephone at (202) 395-3084. The 
NRC Clearance Officer is Brenda J. Shelton, (301) 415-7232. Dated at 
Rockville, Maryland, this 21st day of June, 1994.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Gerald F. Cranford,
Designated Senior Official for Information Resources Management.
