NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review; Comment Request

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

ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection and 
solicitation of public comment.

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

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. 
The NRC published a Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period on this information collection on May 30, 2008.
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 9, Public 
Records.
    3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0043.
    4. The form number if applicable: Forms 509 and 509A.
    5. How often the collection is required: On occasion.
    6. Who will be required or asked to report: Individuals requesting 
access to records under the Freedom of Information or Privacy Acts, and 
submitters of information containing trade secrets or confidential 
commercial or financial information who have been notified that the NRC 
has made an initial determination that the information should be 
disclosed.
    7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 212.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 212.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: 167.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 9 prescribes procedures for individuals 
making requests for records under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 
or Privacy Act (PA). It contains information collection requirements 
for requests to waive or reduce fees for searching for and reproducing 
records in response to FOIA requests; appeals of denied requests; and 
requests for expedited processing. The information required from the 
public is necessary to justify requests for waivers or reductions in 
searching or copying fees; or to justify expedited processing. Section 
9.28(b) provides that if the submitter of information designated to be 
trade secrets or confidential commercial or financial information 
objects to the disclosure, he must provide a written statement within 
30 days that specifies all grounds why the information is a trade 
secret or commercial or financial information that is privileged or 
confidential.
    A copy of the final supporting statement may be viewed free of 
charge at the NRC Public Document Room, One White Flint North, 11555 
Rockville Pike, Room O-1 F21, Rockville, MD 20852. OMB clearance 
requests are available at the NRC worldwide Web site: http://www.nrc.gov/public-involve/doc-comment/omb/index.html. The document 
will be available on the NRC home page site for 60 days after the 
signature date of this notice. Comments and questions should be 
directed to the OMB reviewer listed below by September 15, 2008. 
Comments received after this date will be considered if it is practical 
to do so, but assurance of consideration cannot be given to comments 
received after this date.
    Nathan J. Frey, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (3150-
0043), NEOB-10202, Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC

    The NRC Clearance Officer is Russell A. Nichols, (301) 415-6874.
