II. Background
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35), the NRC is requesting public comment on its intention to
request the OMB's approval for the information collection summarized
below.
1. The title of the information collection: NRC Forms 366, 366A,
and 366B, ``Licensee Event Report''.
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0104.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: NRC Forms 366, 366A, and 366B.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: As needed per
Sec. 50.73 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
``Licensee event report system.'' The total number of reports is
estimated to be 350 per year.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: The holder of an
operating license under 10 CFR part 50 or a combined license under 10
CFR part 52 (after the Commission has made the finding under Sec.
52.103(g)).
7. The estimated number of annual responses: The total number of
reports is estimated to be 350 per year.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 100.

burden for completing Licensee Event Reports is 28,000 hours (based on

10. Abstract: Part of the NRC's function is to license and regulate
the operation of commercial nuclear power plants to ensure protection
of public health and safety and the environment in accordance with the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (the Act) as amended. In order for the NRC to
carry out these responsibilities, licensees must report significant
events in accordance with Sec. 50.73, so that the NRC can evaluate the
events to determine what actions, if any,
[[Page 49281]]
are warranted to ensure protection of public health and safety or the
environment. Sec. 50.73 requires reporting on NRC Forms 366, 366A, and
366B.
III. Specific Requests for Comments
The NRC is seeking 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 estimate of the burden of the information collection
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 on respondents
be minimized, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology?
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 21st day of July 2016.
