Short Statement:
The overall annual burden decreased by 50,710 hours annually from 98,814 hours to 48,104 hours. This decrease occurred due to: • License amendments are expected to increase by 5 respondents; however, the burden has been re-evaluated to be 20 hours per response resulting in a decrease of 700 hours annually. This re-evaluation is based on the same assumptions as previous burden estimates and appears to be the result of more efficient processes as subsequent amendments are prepared and reviewed. • Combined licenses will decrease by 2.33 respondents and 24,000 hours annually. • Early Site Permits will decrease by 0.67 respondents and 7,524 hours annually. • Design Certifications are expected to decrease by 1 respondent and 60 hours annually. • Amended Design Certifications are expected to decrease by 5 respondents and 300 hours annually. • License Renewals are expected to decrease by 2 respondents and 24,600 hours annually. • Research and Test Reactors are expected to decrease by 4.67 respondents and 280 hours annually. Burden Increases: During this clearance period, the agency expects increases in a few areas as follows: • Requests for exemptions will increase by 8 respondents and 40 hours annually. • Requests to withhold proprietary information from disclosure will increase by 1 respondent and 10 hours annually. • Construction permit stage environmental reports will increase by 0.33 respondents and 3,536 hours annually. • Materials license environmental reviews will increase by 0.67 respondents and 1,118 hours annually. • Petitions for rulemaking will increase by 1 respondent and 80 hours annually.
