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,
``Voluntary Reporting of Performance Indicators.'' 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 5, 2024, 89 FR 15903.
1. The title of the information collection: Voluntary Reporting of
Performance Indicators.
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0195.
3. Type of submission: Revision.
4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: Quarterly for
Performance Indicator reporting and, on occasion, for the Frequently
Asked Question process.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Power reactor
licensees.
[[Page 58776]]
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 400 (379 reporting
responses + 21 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: 82,034 (80,960 hours
reporting + 1,074 hours recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: As part of a joint industry-NRC initiative, the NRC
receives information submitted voluntarily by power reactor licensees
regarding selected performance attributes known as performance
indicators (PIs). PIs are objective measures of the performance of
licensee systems or programs. The NRC uses PI information and
inspection results in its Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) to make
decisions about plant performance and regulatory response. Licensees
transmit PIs electronically to reduce burden on themselves and the NRC.
Licensees also participate in the ROP Performance Indicator Frequently
Asked Question (FAQ) process that it is used to resolve interpretation
issues with Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) document, NEI 99-02,
``Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline.'' The ROP PI
FAQ process and white papers may also be used to propose changes to NEI
99-02 guidance and the PI Program. The NRC and industry review FAQs and
white papers and work to achieve resolution during periodic public
meetings.
Dated: July 16, 2024.

NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
