NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. NRC-2008-0565]


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 February 9, 2009.
    1. Type of Submission, New, Revision, or Extension: Extension.
    2. The Title of the Information Collection: 10 CFR part 62--
``Criteria and Procedures for Emergency Access to Non-Federal and 
Regional Low-Level Waste Disposal Facilities.''
    3. Current OMB Approval Number: 3150-0143.
    4. The Form Number if Applicable: N/A.
    5. How Often the Collection is Required: The collection would only 
be required upon application for an exemption when access to a non-
Federal low-level waste disposal facility is denied, which results in a 
public health and safety and/or common defense and security concern.
    6. Who Will Be Required or Asked to Report: Generators of low-level 
radioactive waste who are denied access to a non-Federal low-level 
radioactive waste and who wish to request emergency access for disposal 
at a non-Federal LLRW disposal facility pursuant to 10 CFR part 62.
    7. An Estimate of the Number of Annual Responses: 1.

[[Page 20350]]

    8. The Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 1.
    9.  An Estimate of the Total Number of Hours Needed Annually to 
Complete the Requirement or Request: 233.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 62 sets out the information which must be 
provided to the NRC by any low-level waste generator seeking emergency 
access to an operating low-level waste disposal facility. The 
information is required to allow NRC to determine if denial of disposal 
constitutes a serious and immediate threat to public health and safety 
or common defense and security. 10 CFR part 62 also provides that the 
Commission may grant an exemption from the requirements in this Part 
upon application of an interested person or upon its own initiative.
