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, 
``Suspicious Activity Reporting Using the Protected Web Server.'' 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 December 9, 2019 (84 FR 
67298).
    1. The title of the information collection: Suspicious Activity 
Reporting Using the Protective Web Server.
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0219.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number, if applicable: N/A.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion. 
Reporting is done on a voluntary basis, as suspicious incidents occur.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Nuclear power reactor 
licensees provide the majority of reports, but other entities that may 
voluntarily send reports include fuel facilities, independent spent 
fuel storage installations, decommissioned power reactors, power 
reactors under construction, research and test reactors, agreement 
States, non-agreement States, as well as users of byproduct material 
(e.g., departments of health, medical centers, steel mills, well 
loggers, and radiographers).
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 124.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 62.
    9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the 
information collection requirement or request: 248.
    10. Abstract: NRC licensees voluntarily report information on 
suspicious incidents on an ad-hoc basis, as these incidents occur. This 
information is shared with authorized nuclear industry officials and 
Federal, State, and local government agencies using the Protected Web 
Server. Information provided by licensees is considered OFFICIAL USE 
ONLY and is not made public.

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?

[[Page 20309]]

    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: April 7, 2020.
