BILLING CODE 7533-01-M NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to submit an information collection request to OMB and solicitation of public comment. SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a submittal to OMB for review of continued approval of information collections under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35). Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted: 1. *The title of the information collection* : 10 CFR Part 61—Licensing Requirements for Land Disposal of Radioactive Waste. 2. *Current OMB approval number* : 3150-0135. 3. *How often the collection is required* : Applications for licenses are submitted as needed. Other reports are submitted annually and as other events require. 4. *Who is required or asked to report* : Applicants for and holders of an NRC license (to include Agreement States) for land disposal of low-level radioactive waste, and all generators, collectors, and processors of low-level waste intended for disposal at a low-level waste facility. 5. *The estimated number of annual respondents* : 4. 6. *The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement or request* : 5,412 hours (56 hours for reporting {approximately 4.6 hours per response} plus 5,356 hours for recordkeeping {approximately 1,339 hours per recordkeeper}). 7. *Abstract* :
Part 61 establishes the procedures, criteria, and license terms and conditions for the land disposal of low-level radioactive waste. Reporting and recordkeeping requirements are mandatory or, in the case of application submittals, are required to obtain a benefit. The information collected in the applications, reports, and records is evaluated by the NRC to ensure that the licensee's or applicant's physical plant, equipment, organization, training, experience, procedures, and plans provide an adequate level of protection of public health and safety, common defense and security, and the environment.
