II. Background
Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of
an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, ``10
CFR part 55, Operators' Licenses.'' 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 February 1, 2022, 87 FR 5519.
1. The title of the information collection: ``10 CFR part 55,
Operators' Licenses.''
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0018.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: As necessary
for the NRC to meet its responsibilities to determine the eligibility
for applicants and operators.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Holders of, and
applicants for, facility (i.e., nuclear power and non-power research
and test reactor) operating licenses and individual operator licensees.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 437 (345 reporting
responses + 92 recordkeepers).
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 92.
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 170,928 hours (149,619
hours reporting + 21,309 hours recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: Part 55 of title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), ``Operators' Licenses,'' specifies information
and data to be provided by applicants and facility licensees so that
the NRC may make determinations concerning the licensing and
requalification of operators for nuclear reactors, as necessary to
promote public health and safety. The reporting and recordkeeping
requirements contained in 10 CFR part 55 are mandatory for the affected
facility licensees and applicants. In addition, the information
collection includes two online forms for requesting exemptions from
requirements for Part 55 Exemption Request and Part 55 Research and
Test Reactor Exemption Request related to the COVID-19 Public Health
Emergency (PHE). The information collected by the online form is the
minimum needed by NRC to make a determination on the acceptability of
the licensee's request for an exemption.
Dated: May 25, 2022.

NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
