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 396, ``Certification of Medical Examination by Facility 
Licensee.'' 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 October 10, 2018, 83 FR 50963.
    1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 396, 
``Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee.''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0024.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 396.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: Upon 
application for an initial or upgrade license; every six years for the 
renewal of an operator or senior operator license, and notices of 
disability that occur during licensed tenure.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Facility licensees who 
are tasked with certifying the medical fitness or operator licensee.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 1,882.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 125.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 2,196.25 
hours (1,757 Reporting hours plus 439.25 Recordkeeping hours).
    10. Abstract: NRC Form 396 is used to transmit information to the 
NRC regarding the medical condition of applicants for initial operator 
licenses or renewal of operator licenses and for the maintenance of 
medical records for all licensed operators. The information is used to 
determine whether the physical condition and general health of 
applicants for operator licensees is such that the applicant would not 
be expected to cause operational errors and endanger public health and 
safety.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 11th day of February 2019.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Acting NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
