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 August 1, 2008 (73 FR 45083).
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Extension.
    2. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 396, 
``Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee''.
    3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0024.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 396.
    5. How often the collection is required: Upon application for an 
initial operator license, every six years for the renewal of operator 
or senior operator license, and upon notice of disability.
    6. Who will be required or asked to report: Facility licensees who 
are tasked with certifying the medical fitness of an applicant or 
licensee.
    7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 1,290.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 137.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: 793 (323 hours for reporting [.25 
hours per response], and 470 hours for recordkeeping [3.4 hours per 
recordkeeper].
    10. Abstract: NRC Form 396 is used to transmit information to the 
NRC regarding the medical condition of applicants for initial operator 
licenses or renewal of operator licenses and for the maintenance of 
medical records for all licensed operators. The information is used to 
determine whether the physical condition and general health of 
applicants for operator licensees is such that the applicant would not 
be expected to cause operational errors and endanger public health and 
safety.
