Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The overall burden increased by 81 hours, from 1 hour to 82 hours. The total number of respondents increased from 1 to 2 and the responses increased from 5 to 328 (326 responses + 2 recordkeepers). The reason for the burden increase is an agreement that was established between the NRC and the Department of Energy (DOE). Under this agreement, DOE processes the security clearance requests for applicants of Nuclear Fuel Services, Incorporated (NFS) and upon certification that DOE has granted the clearance, NRC will reciprocally accept it. The respondents required both an NRC and DOE clearance, so this process reduces the burden of two clearance processes. This arrangement will significantly reduce the burden of the clearance process on the individual, the company, and each agency. The realignment was for consistency with the NRC regulatory requirements in 10 CFR Parts 11 and 25 and will make the practices for processing security clearances for NFS consistent with those used for BWXT¬-Lynchburg. This change also increases the number of respondents from 1 to 2. The professional hourly cost rate for professional staff has increased from $257/hr to $274/hr.
