AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to submit an information
collection
[[Page 24626]]
request to OMB and solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a submittal to OMB for review of
continued approval of information collections under the provisions of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted:
1. The title of the information collection: NRC Survey of Public
Response to Emergencies.
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-XXXX (New Collection).
3. How often the collection is required: This is a one-time
collection.
4. Who is required or asked to report: Members of the public that
reside within 10 mile Emergency Planning Zones of nuclear power plant.
5. The estimated number of annual respondents: This is a one-time
collection of 800 completed surveys.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request:
One-time event. 277 hours ((completed surveys 800 x .333 hrs per
response = 267 hrs) + (uncompleted surveys 120 x .083 hrs per response
= 10 hrs)).
7. Abstract: As part of NRC's effort to review and improve
emergency response program areas, a telephone survey will be conducted
to assess the satisfaction of the pubic with existing protective action
strategies, the effectiveness in which these strategies are conveyed to
the public, and the public response to the possibility of modifying
protection action strategies. The survey will produce statistical
descriptions of customer satisfaction and acceptance of emergency
response planning and protective actions. The response to the surveys
will be used by the NRC in the development of new or modified
protective action strategies including the types of strategies
implemented and the means for which the information on protective
actions may be disseminated to the public. The response may also
support quality improvement in the existing emergency planning
information in other areas indirectly related to protective actions.
Submit, by July 2, 2007, comments that address the following
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?
