II. Background
Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a proposed collection of
information to OMB for review entitled ``Codes and Standards.'' 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 August 30, 2023, 88 FR 59950.
1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR 50.55a, Codes
and Standards.
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: Reports are
submitted on occasion, typically at each refueling outage or when an
alternative is
[[Page 82921]]
requested. Inservice Testing (IST) Program Test and Examination Plans
must be submitted within 90 days of their implementation for the
applicable 120-month IST Program interval.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Licensees and
applicants for or holders of an operating license or construction
permit, applicants for a standard design certification under part 52 of
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) of this chapter,
or an applicant for or holder of a standard design approval, or a
combined license.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 754 (660 reporting
responses plus 94 recordkeepers).
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 94.
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 336,416 (119,276
reporting + 217,140 recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: Paragraph 50.55a, ``Codes and Standards,'' specifies
technical information and data to be provided to the NRC or maintained
by applicants and licensees so that the NRC may take determinations
necessary to protect the health and safety of the public, in accordance
with the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. The reporting and
recordkeeping requirements contained in 10 CFR 50.55a are mandatory for
the affected licensees and applicants.
Dated: November 21, 2023.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
