        5. The number of annual respondents: 1,320 (300 for the Financial

        6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement

        7. Abstract: The U.S. Department of Treasury encourages the public 
    to pay monies owed the government through use of the Automated 
    Clearinghouse Network and credit card. These two methods of payment are 
    used by licensees, applicants, and individuals to pay civil penalties, 
    full cost licensing fees, and inspection fees to the NRC.

    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 burden estimate 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 be minimized, 
    including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
    information technology?
