NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review; Comment Request
AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection and
solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to OMB for review the following
proposal for the collection of information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). 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 March 24, 2008.
1. Type of submission--new, revision, or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 54,
``Requirements for Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power
Plants.''
3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0155.
4. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required: There is a one-time
application for any licensee wishing to renew its nuclear power plant's
operating license. There is a one-time requirement for each licensee
with a renewed operating license to submit a commitment completion
letter. All holders of renewed licenses must perform yearly record
keeping.
6. Who will be required or asked to report: Commercial nuclear
power plant licensees who wish to renew their operating licenses and
holders of renewed licenses.
7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 10 (six Part 54
respondents plus four commitment completion letter respondents).
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 50 (10 responses
plus 40 recordkeepers).
9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 544,940 hours (504,940 hours
reporting plus 40,000 hours recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: Title 10, Part 54, establishes license renewal
requirements for commercial nuclear
[[Page 34798]]
power plants and describes the information that licensees must submit
to the NRC when applying for a license renewal.
The application must contain information on how the licensee will
manage the detrimental effects of age-related degradation on certain
plant systems, structures, and components so as to continue the plant's
safe operation during the renewal term. The NRC needs this information
to determine whether the licensee's actions will be effective in
assuring the plant's continued safe operation.
Holders of renewed licenses must retain in an auditable and
retrievable form, for the term of the renewed operating license, all
information and documentation required to document compliance with 10
CFR Part 54. The NRC needs access to this information for continuing
effective regulatory oversight.
