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,
``Part 140 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
Financial Protection Requirements and Indemnity Agreements.'' 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 June 18, 2024, 89 FR 51556.
1. The title of the information collection: Part 140 of title 10 of
the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Financial Protection
Requirements and Indemnity Agreements.
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0039.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: Annually, and
on occasion, as needed for applicants and licensees to meet their
responsibilities called for in Sections 170 and 193 of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954, as amended (AEA).
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Each applicant for or
holder of a license issued under 10 CFR parts 50 or 54, to operate a
nuclear reactor, or the applicant for or holder of a combined license
issued under 10 CFR parts 52 or 54, as well as licensees authorized to
possess and use plutonium in a plutonium processing and fuel
fabrication plant. In addition, licensees authorized to construct and
operate a uranium enrichment facility in accordance with 10 CFR parts
40 and 70.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 110.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 110.
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 768 hours.
10. Abstract: Part 140 of 10 CFR specifies the information to be
submitted by licensees that enables the NRC to assess: (a) financial
protection required by licensees and for the indemnification and
limitation of liability of certain licensees and other persons pursuant
to Section 170 of the AEA, as amended; and (b) the liability insurance
required opinion.
