Abstract: Agreement States will be asked to provide information about uranium recovery and complex sites undergoing decommissioning regulated by the Agreement States on an annual basis. The information request will allow the NRC to compile, in a centralized location, more complete information on the status of decommissioning and decontamination in the United States in order to provide a national perspective on decommissioning. The information will be made available to the public by the NRC in order to ensure openness and promote communication to enhance public knowledge of the national decommissioning program. This does not apply to information, such as trade secrets and commercial or financial information provided by the Agreement States, that is considered privileged or confidential. Information such as financial assurance and the status of decommissioning funding would need to be identified by the Agreement State as privileged or confidential, whereupon the NRC would withhold such information from public access and treat it as sensitive or non-sensitive, per the considerations in 10 CFR Parts 2.390 and 9.17. This does not apply to financial assurance or decommissioning funding information that is already available to the public. Although specific details of the funding mechanisms are treated as confidential, beneficial lessons learned regarding the improvement of decommissioning-related funding will be shared with the Agreement States.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The estimated burden has decreased by 37 hours from 469 hours to 432 hours. The burden has changed due to a decrease in the number of sites of interest from 50 to 45. Agreement States are requested to complete one response annually for each site of interest, or provide one response annually stating that the Agreement State has no sites of interest. A decrease of 5 sites of interest would decrease the estimated burden by 40 hours, while the addition of one Agreement State with no sites of interest would require an additional 3 hours. In addition, the fee rate decreased from $272 to $265 per hour.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $106,000
