NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. NRC-2010-0360]
Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review; Comment Request
AGENCY: 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 November 22, 2010.
1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information collection: Comprehensive
Decommissioning Program, Including Annual Data Collection.
3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0206.
4. The form number if applicable: N/A.
5. How often the collection is required: Annually.
6. Who will be required or asked to report: All Agreement States
who have signed Section 274(b) Agreements with NRC.
7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 83.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 37 (13 Agreement
States respondents with sites of interest + 24 Agreement States
respondents with no sites of interest).
9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 662 (590 hours from Agreement
States with sites of interest + 72 hours from Agreement States with no
sites of interest).
10. Abstract: Agreement States will be asked to provide information
about uranium recovery and complex sites undergoing decommissioning
regulated by the Agreement States on an annual basis. The information
request will allow the NRC to compile, in a centralized location, more
complete information on the status of decommissioning and
decontamination in the United States in order to provide a national
perspective on decommissioning. The information will be made available
to the public by the NRC in order to ensure openness and promote
communication to enhance public knowledge of the national
decommissioning program. This does not apply to information, such as
trade secrets and commercial or financial information provided by the
Agreement States, that is considered privileged or confidential.
Information such as financial assurance and the status of
decommissioning funding would need to be identified by the Agreement
State as privileged or confidential, whereupon the NRC would withhold
such information from public access and treat it as sensitive or non-
sensitive, per the considerations in 10 CFR 2.390 and 9.17. This does
not apply to financial assurance or decommissioning funding information
that is already available to the public. Although specific details of
the funding mechanisms are treated as confidential, beneficial lessons
learned regarding the improvement of decommissioning-related funding
will be shared with the Agreement States.
A copy of the final supporting statement may be viewed free of
charge at the NRC Public Document Room, One White Flint North, 11555
Rockville Pike, Room O-1 F21, Rockville, Maryland 20852. OMB clearance
requests are available at the NRC worldwide Web site: http://www.nrc.gov/public-involve/doc-comment/omb/index.html. The document
will be available on the NRC home page site for 60 days after the
signature date of this notice.
Comments and questions should be directed to the OMB reviewer
listed below by March 10, 2011. Comments received after this date will
be considered if it is practical to do so, but assurance of
consideration cannot be given to comments received after this date.
Christine J. Kymn, Desk Officer, Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs (3150-0206), NEOB-10202, Office of Management and
