``Personal Qualification Statement--Licensee''.
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0090.
3. How often the collection is required: On occasion and every six
years (at renewal).
4. Who is required or asked to report: Individuals requiring a
license to operate the controls at a nuclear reactor.
5. The number of annual respondents: 1,155.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 1,465 or approximately 1.3 hours per response (1,465 hours
/ 1,155 applications (new, re-applications, renewals and waivers =

7. Abstract: NRC Form 398 requests detailed information that should
be submitted by a licensing applicant and facility licensee when
applying for a new or renewal license to operate the controls at a
nuclear reactor facility. This information, once collected, would be
used for licensing actions and for generating reports on the Operator
Licensing Program.

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?
