Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
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 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (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: 10 CFR part 61,
Licensing Requirements for Land Disposal of Radioactive Waste.
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0135.
3. How often the collection is required: Applications for licenses
are submitted as needed. Other reports are submitted annually and as
other events require.
4. Who is required or asked to report: Applicants for and holders
of an NRC license (to include Agreement State licensees) for land
disposal of low-level radioactive waste; and all generators,
collectors, and processors of low-level waste intended for disposal at
a low-level waste facility.
5. The number of annual respondents: 4.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 5,372 hours (56 hours reporting + 5,316 hours
recordkeeping).
7. Abstract: Part 61 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations
establishes the procedures, criteria, and license terms and conditions
for the land disposal of low-level radioactive waste. The reporting and
recordkeeping requirements are mandatory and, in the case of
application submittals, are required to obtain a benefit. The
information collected in the applications, reports, and records is
evaluated by the NRC to ensure that the licensee's or applicant's
disposal facility, equipment, organization, training, experience,
procedures, and plans provide an adequate level of protection of public
health and safety, common defense and security, and the environment.
Submit, by July 7, 2014, 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?
