II. Background
Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of
an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, ``10
CFR part 4, Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Commission
Programs.'' 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.

Federally Assisted Commission Programs.''
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0053.

for this collection are covered in Sec. 4.331 of title 10 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Compliance Reviews, which indicates
that the NRC may conduct compliance reviews and Pre-Award reviews of
recipients or use other similar procedures that will permit it to
investigate and correct violations of the act and these regulations.
The NRC may conduct these reviews even in absence of a complaint
against a recipient. The reviews may be as comprehensive as necessary
to determine whether a violation of these regulations has occurred.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Recipients of Federal
Financial Assistance provided by the NRC (including Educational
Institutions, Other Nonprofit Organizations receiving Federal
Assistance, and Agreement States).
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 600.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 200.
9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 3,600
(3,000 hrs for reporting (5 hrs per respondent) and 600 hrs for
recordkeeping (3 hrs per recordkeeper).
10. Abstract: The regulations under 10 CFR part 4 implement the

352; (78 Stat. 241; 42 U.S.C. 2000a note), Title IV of the Energy
Reorganization Act of 1974, Public Law 93-438, (88 stat. 1233; 42
