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, ``NRC 
Form 354, Data Report on Spouse.'' 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 June 27, 2017, (82 FR 29118).
    1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 354, ``Data 
Report on Spouse.''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0026.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 354.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: On Occasion.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: NRC contactors, 
licensees, applicants, and other (e.g. intervener's) who marry or 
cohabitate after completing the Personnel Security Forms, or after 
having been granted an NRC access authorization or employment 
clearance.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 80.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 80.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 16.
    10. Abstract: NRC Form 354 must be completed by NRC contractors, 
licensees, applicants who marry or cohabitate after completing the 
Personnel Security Forms, or after having been granted an NRC access 
authorization or employment clearance. Form 354 identifies the 
respondent, the marriage, and data on the spouse and spouse's parents. 
This information permits the NRC to make initial security 
determinations and to assure there is no increased risk to the common 
defense and security.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 9th day of November 2017.
    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
David Cullison,
NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
