    SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a submittal to OMB for review of

        Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted:
        1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 790, 
    ``Classification Record.''
        2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0052.
        3. How often the collection is required: On Occasion.
        4. Who is required or asked to report: NRC employees, NRC 
    contractors, NRC licensees and others who classify and declassify NRC 
    information.
        5. The number of annual respondents: 175.
        6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement 
    or request: 147.
        7. Abstract: The NRC Form 790 is being revised to add three

    completion. In addition, an electronic reporting format is being made 
    available for those wishing to use it. Completion of the NRC Form 790 
    is a mandatory requirement for contractors, license applicants, 
    certificate holders, and others who classify and declassify NRC 
    information in accordance with Executive Order 12958, ``Classified 
    National Security Information,'' the Atomic Energy Act, and 
    implementing directives.
        Submit, by July 15, 1997, 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 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,

    information technology?
