SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to OMB for review the following 
proposal for the collection of information under the provisions of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). The NRC hereby 
informs potential respondents that an agency may not conduct or 
sponsor, and that a person is not required to respond to, a collection 
of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Extension.
    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 54, 
``Requirements for Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power 
Plants''.
    3. The form number if applicable:

    4. How often the 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 asked to report: Commercial nuclear 
power plant licensees who wish to renew their operating licenses.
    6. An estimate of the number of responses: 20 (an average of 6 
responses annually + 14 recordkeepers).
    7. The estimated number of annual respondents: 14 (6 respondents 
annually based on an estimate of the receipt of 19 new renewal 
applications over three years + 8 current recordkeepers).
    8. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: Approximately 432,333 hours 
(405,333 hours one-time reporting burden and 27,000 hours recordkeeping 
burden).
    9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Pub. L. 104-13 
applies: N/A.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 54 of the NRC regulations, ``Requirements 
for Renewal of Operating Licensees for Nuclear Power Plants,'' 
specifies the procedures, criteria, and standards governing nuclear 
power plant license renewal, including information submittal and 
recordkeeping requirements, so that the NRC may make determinations 
that the operation of civilian nuclear power reactors during the 
extended term of the license will adequately protect the health and 
safety of the public and the environment.
