Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a proposed collection of information to OMB for review entitled ``Planned Power Uprate-Related Licensing Submittals for All Power Reactor Licensees.'' 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 April 29, 2024, 89 FR 33402. 1. The title of the information collection: Planned Power Uprate- Related Licensing Submittals for All Power Reactor Licensees. 2. OMB approval number: An OMB control number has not yet been assigned to this proposed information collection. 3. Type of submission: New. 4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable. 5. How often the collection is required or requested: Annually, with the addition of voluntary updates as available. 6. Who will be required or asked to respond: All holders of operating licenses or combined licenses for nuclear power reactors, except those that have permanently ceased operations and have certified that fuel has been permanently removed from the reactor vessel or combined license holders that have not received authorization to load nuclear fuel and begin operation. 7. The estimated number of annual responses: 5.33. 8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 5.33. 9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 107. 10. Abstract: This voluntary information collection assists the NRC in determining resource and budget needs as well as aligning the proper allocation and utilization of resources to support power uprate related licensing activities. In addition, information provided to the NRC staff is intended to promote early communications between the NRC and the respective addressees about potential power uprate licensing actions, submission dates, and related activities to support power uprates, such as alternate source term amendments or accident tolerant fuels amendment activities. The overarching goal of this information collection is to assist the NRC staff more effectively and efficiently plan, schedule, and implement activities and reviews in a timely manner.
