NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[NRC-2010-0120]
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 pending NRC action to submit an information
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and
solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC invites public comment about our intention to request
the OMB's approval for renewal of an existing information collection
that is summarized below. We are required to publish this notice in the
Federal Register 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: The Office of Federal
and State Materials and Environmental Management Programs Requests to
Agreement States for Information.
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0029.
3. How often the collection is required: One time or as needed.
4. Who is required or asked to report: Thirty-seven Agreement
States who have signed Section 274(b) Agreements with NRC.
5. The number of annual respondents: 37.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 1,480.
7. Abstract: The Agreement States are asked on a one-time or as-
needed basis to respond to a specific incident, to gather information
on licensing and inspection practices or other technical and
statistical information. Information is also exchanged for training
purposes, such as, student travel submissions. In 2007, the NRC policy
changed to begin funding training for Agreement State materials
licensing and inspection staff and associated travel to attend courses
offered through the NRC training program. The results of such
information requests, which are authorized under Section 274(b) of the
Atomic Energy Act, are utilized in part by the NRC in preparing
responses to Congressional inquiries. The Agreement State comments are
also solicited in the areas of proposed procedure and policy
development.
Submit, by June 1, 2010, 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?
