    AGENCY: U. S. 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: NRC Form 396, 
    Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee.
        2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0024.
        3. How often the collection is required: Upon application for an 
    initial operator license, every six years for the renewal of operator 
    or senior operator licenses, and upon notices of disability.
        4. Who is required or asked to report: Facility employers of 
    applicants for operator licenses.
        5. The number of annual respondents: 975.
        6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement 
    or request: Reporting: 243.75 hours (.25 hours per response), 
    Recordkeeping: 497.5 hours (.10 hours per record).
        7. Abstract: NRC Form 396 establishes the procedure for 
    transmitting information to the NRC regarding the medical condition of 
    applicants for initial or renewal operator licenses and for the 
    maintenance of medical records for all licensed operators. The 
    information is used to determine whether the physical condition and 
    general health of applicants for operator licenses is such that the 
    applicant would not be expected to cause operational errors endangering 
    public health and safety.
        Submit, by September 3, 1996, 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, 
    including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
    information technology?
