-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to OMB for review of continued
approval of information collection under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). 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.
1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information collection: State Agreements
Program, as authorized by Section 274(b) of the Atomic Energy Act.
3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0029.
4. How often the collection is required: One time or as needed.
5. Who is required or asked to report: Thirty Agreement States who
have signed Section 274(b) agreements with NRC.
6. An estimate of the number of responses: 95.
7. An estimated number of annual respondents: 30.
8. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 570 (approximately six hours per
response).
9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Public Law 104-13
applies: Not applicable.
10. Abstract: Agreement States are surveyed on a one-time or as-
needed basis, i.e., in response to a specific incident, to gather
information on licensing and inspection practices and other technical
and statistical information. The results of such information requests,
which are authorized under Section 274(b) of the Atomic Energy Act, are
utilized in part by NRC in preparing responses to Congressional
inquiries. Agreement State comments are also solicited in the areas of
proposed procedure and policy development.
A copy of the final supporting statement may be viewed free of
