NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. NRC-2010-0118]
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 OMB review of information collection and solicitation
of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to the Office of Management and
Budget (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 March 24, 2010.
1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 52,
``Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants.''
3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0151.
4. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required: Whenever applications are
made for Early Site Permits (ESPs), Standard Design Certifications
(SDCs), Combined Licenses (COLs), Standard Design Approvals (SDAs), or
Manufacturing Licenses (MLs); and every 10 to 20 years for applications
for renewal.
6. Who will be required or asked to report: Designers of commercial
nuclear power plants (NPPs), electric power companies, and any person
eligible under the Atomic Energy Act to apply for ESPs, SDCs, COLs, or
MLs.
7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 11.332.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 4.666.
9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 204,075 (191,774 reporting, 12,301
recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 52 establishes requirements for the
granting of ESPs, certifications of standard NPP designs, and licenses
which combine in a single license a construction permit, and an
operating license with conditions, OLs, MLs, SDAs, and pre-application
reviews of site suitability issues. Part 52 also establishes
requirements for renewal of those approvals, permits, certifications,
and licenses; amendments to them; exemptions from certifications; and
variances from ESPs.
NRC uses the information collected to assess the adequacy and
suitability of an applicant's site, plant design, construction,
training and experience, plans and procedures for the protection of
public health and safety. The NRC review of such information and the
findings derived from that information form the basis of NRC decisions
and actions concerning the issuance, modification or revocation of site
permits, DCs, COLs, and MLs for NPPs.
