NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[NRC-2014-0182]
Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the
Office of Management and Budget Review; Comment Request
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection and
solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to 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 August 28, 2014.
1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Extension.
2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 54,
[[Page 77536]]
``Requirements for Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power
Plants.''
3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0155.
4. The form number if applicable: N/A.
5. How often the collection is required: There is a one-time
application for any licensee wishing to renew the operating license for
its nuclear power plant. There is a one-time requirement for each
licensee with a renewed operating license to submit a letter
documenting the completion of inspection and testing activities. All
holders of renewed licenses must perform yearly record keeping.
6. Who will be required or asked to report: Commercial nuclear
power plant licensees who wish to renew their operating licenses and
holders of renewed licenses.
7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 6.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 58 (52 recordkeepers
+ 6 responses (2 license renewal applications expected on average + 4
letters documenting the completion of inspection and testing activities
expected on average)).
9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 220,340 hours (168,340 hours of
reporting + 52,000 hours of recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: Part 54 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), establishes license renewal requirements for
commercial nuclear power plants and describes the information that
licensees must submit to the NRC when applying for a license renewal.
The application must contain information on how the licensee will
manage the detrimental effects of age-related degradation on certain
plant systems, structures, and components so as to continue the plant's
safe operation during the renewal term. The NRC needs this information
to determine whether the licensee's actions will be effective in
assuring the plants' continued safe operation during the period of
extended operation.
Holders of renewed licenses must retain in an auditable and
retrievable form, for the term of the renewed operating license, all
information and documentation required to document compliance with 10
CFR part 54. The NRC needs access to this information for continuing
effective regulatory oversight.

consideration cannot be given to comments received after this date.
