request the OMB's approval for the information collection summarized
below.
1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 4,
Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Commission Programs.
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0053.
3. Type of submission: Revision.
4. The form number, if applicable: NRC Forms 782.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: NRC Form 782
is submitted on occasion, if any person believes himself or any
specific class of individuals have been subjected to discrimination
prohibited by title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) part
4, subpart A--Regulations Implementing Title VI of the Civil Rights Act
of 1964 and Title IV of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, on
behalf of the primary funding recipient or any other recipient that
received NRC Federal financial assistance through the primary funding
recipient. Self-evaluations are performed throughout the duration of
obligation based on 10 CFR 4.231, Responsibility of applicants and
recipients.
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

the NRC are subject to the provisions of 10 CFR part 4,
``Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Programs or Activities
Receiving Assistance from the Commission.'' Respondents must notify
participants, beneficiaries, applicants, and employees of
nondiscrimination practices and keep records of Federal financial
assistance and of their own self-evaluations of policies and practices.
In the event that discrimination is alleged in NRC-conducted and
Federal financially assisted programs and activities, it may be
reported using NRC Form 782.
III. Specific Requests for Comments

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 35130]]
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?
