[Docket No. NRC-2014-0148]
Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review; Comment Request
AGENCY:
Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
[top]
ACTION:
Notice of the OMB review of information collection and solicitation of public comment.
SUMMARY:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (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 July 2, 2014.
1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Extension.
2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 100 "Reactor Site Criteria."
3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0093.
4. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required: As necessary in order for the NRC to assess the adequacy of proposed seismic design bases and the design bases for other site hazards for nuclear power and test reactors constructed and licensed in accordance with parts 50 and 52 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), and the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended.
6. Who will be required or asked to report: Applicants and licensees for nuclear power and test reactors.
7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 2.3.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 2.3.
9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement or request: Annually, 167,900 hours (73,000 per application × 2.3 applications).
10. Abstract: Part 100, A Reactor Site Criteria, establishes approval requirements for proposed sites for the purpose of constructing and operating stationary power and testing reactors pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR parts 50 and 52. These reactors are required to be sited, designed, constructed, and maintained to withstand geologic hazards, such as faulting, seismic hazards, and the maximum credible earthquake, to protect the health and safety of the public and the environment. Non-seismic siting criteria must also be evaluated. Non-seismic siting criteria include such factors as population density, the proximity of man-related hazards, and site atmospheric dispersion characteristics. The NRC uses the information required by 10 CFR part 100 to evaluate whether natural phenomena and potential man-made hazards will be appropriately accounted for in the design of nuclear power and test reactors.
