Abstract:
10 CFR Parts 50, 52, 72,and 73, Power Reactor Security Requirements, Final Rule The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its security regulations and adding new security requirements pertaining to nuclear power reactors. This rulemaking establishes and updates generically applicable security requirements similar to those previously imposed by Commission orders issued after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Additionally, this rulemaking adds several new requirements not derived directly from the security order requirements but developed as a result of insights gained from implementation of the security orders, review of site security plans, implementation of the enhanced baseline inspection program, and NRC evaluation of force-on-force exercises. This rulemaking also updates the NRC's security regulatory framework for the licensing of new nuclear power plants. Finally, it resolves three petitions for rulemaking (PRM) that were considered during the development of the final rule.

Short Statement:
The estimated incremental recordkeeping and reporting burden of the rule is 421,709.1 hours. This analysis estimates the one-time and annual requirements of the rule, including the third-party annual burden. This analysis concludes that 70,144.5 hours are for one-time reporting and recordkeeping requirements. Therefore, the burden increase will be reduced by approximately 17 percent once the one-time requirements have been completed. The rule adds three new sections, specifically §§ 50.54(hh), 73.54 and 73.58, and completely revises §§73.55, 73.56, Part 73 Appendix B, and Part 73 Appendix C. The factors that account for the increased estimate are the following: The final rule (1) creates more detailed requirements for the content of licensees security plans; (2) includes more detailed requirements for correcting security deficiencies through the sites corrective action program; (3) adds requirements for safety-security interface procedures, including third-party information collection and sharing costs; (4) accounts for recordkeeping associated with alarm annunciations and access control devices; and, (5) creates additional recordkeeping and reporting requirements associated with background investigations for access authorization, including third-party information collection and sharing costs. The final rule contains these new provisions that include reporting and recordkeeping burdens that were not part of previous estimates. The proposed rule was submitted to OMB on 11/08/07. ICR Reference Number: 200612-3150-004 and OMB Control Number: 3150-0205.
