II. Background

    Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a proposed collection of 
information to OMB for review entitled, ``NRC Form 361, Reactor Plant 
Event Notification Worksheet; NRC Form 361A, Fuel Cycle and Materials 
Event Notification Worksheet; NRC Form 361N, Non-Power Reactor Event 
Notification Worksheet.'' 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 September 25, 2018 (83 FR 
48472).
    1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 361, Reactor 
Plant Event Notification Worksheet, NRC Form 361A, Fuel Cycle and 
Materials Event Notification Worksheet; NRC Form 361N, Non-Power 
Reactor Event Notification Worksheet.''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-XXXX.
    3. Type of submission: New.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 361, NRC Form 361A, NRC 
Form 361N.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion, 
as defined, NRC licensee events are reportable when they occur.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Holders of NRC 
licenses for commercial nuclear power plants, fuel cycle facilities, 
NRC material licensees, and non-power reactors.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 537.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 537.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 268.5 
hours.
    10. Abstract: The NRC requires its licensees to report by telephone 
certain reactor events and emergencies that have potential impact to 
public health and safety. In order to efficiently process the 
information received through such reports for reactors, the NRC created 
Forms 361 to provide a templated worksheet for recording the 
information. NRC licensees are not required to fill out or submit the 
worksheet, but the form provides the usual order of questions and 
discussion to enable a licensee to prepare answers for a more clear and 
complete telephonic notification. Without the templated format of the 
NRC Forms 361, the information exchange between licensees and NRC 
Headquarters Operations Officers via telephone could result in delays 
as well as unnecessary transposition errors.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 1st day of April 2019.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
David C. Cullison,
NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
