II. Background In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC is requesting public comment on its intention to request the OMB's approval for the information collection summarized below. 1. *The title of the information collection:* NRC Forms 366, 366A, and 366B, “Licensee Event Report”. 2. *OMB approval number:* 3150-0104. 3. *Type of submission:* Extension. 4. *The form number, if applicable:* NRC Forms 366, 366A, and 366B. 5. *How often the collection is required or requested:* As needed per § 50.73 of title 10 of the *Code of Federal Regulations* (10 CFR), “Licensee event report system.” The total number of reports is estimated to be 350 per year. 6. *Who will be required or asked to respond:* The holder of an operating license under 10 CFR part 50 or a combined license under 10 CFR part 52 (after the Commission has made the finding under § 52.103(g)). 7. *The estimated number of annual responses:* The total number of reports is estimated to be 350 per year. 8. *The estimated number of annual respondents:* 100. 9. *The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request:* The total estimated burden for completing Licensee Event Reports is 28,000 hours (based on 80 hours for each of 350 reports). 10. *Abstract:* Part of the NRC's function is to license and regulate the operation of commercial nuclear power plants to ensure protection of public health and safety and the environment in accordance with the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (the Act) as amended. In order for the NRC to carry out these responsibilities, licensees must report significant events in accordance with § 50.73, so that the NRC can evaluate the events to determine what actions, if any, are warranted to ensure protection of public health and safety or the environment. § 50.73 requires reporting on NRC Forms 366, 366A, and 366B. III. Specific Requests for Comments The NRC is seeking comments that address the following questions: 1. Is the proposed collection of information necessary for the NRC to properly perform its functions? Does the information have practical utility? 2. Is the estimate of the burden of the information collection accurate? 3. Is there a way to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected? 4. How can the burden of the information collection on respondents be minimized, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology? Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 21st day of July 2016. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. David Cullison, NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
