Abstract: Following events at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear power plant resulting from the March 11, 2011, earthquake and subsequent tsunami, and in response to requirements contained in Section 402 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act (Pub. L. 112–074), the NRC requested information from power reactor licensees pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 50.54(f). The information requested includes seismic and flooding hazard reevaluations to determine if further regulatory action is necessary, walkdowns to confirm compliance with the current licensing basis and provide input to the hazard reevaluations, and analysis of the Emergency Preparedness capability with respect to staffing and communication ability during a prolonged multiunit event. The NRC will use the information provided by licensees to determine if additional regulatory action is necessary.

Short Statement: The previously approved burden total for the 50.54(f) letters issued in March 2012 is 314,885 hours and 238 responses, annualized to 104,961.7 hours and 79.3 responses. This estimate was based on the work that would be performed by licensees during the 2016-2019 clearance period. The current request is for 33,000 hours and 12 responses (annualized to 11,000 hours and 4 responses), a decrease of 93,961.7 annualized hours and 75.3 annualized responses, based on the work that will be performed by licensees during the 2019-2021 clearance period. The primary reason for the decrease in burden is that the information collection is a one-time collection and most responses were submitted during the previous two clearance periods. The only remaining submissions are the SPRA submittals from 12 power reactor licensees. Information collections that have been completed include the seismic high and low frequency confirmations, seismic spent fuel pool evaluations, flooding hazard reevaluations, flooding integrated assessments, focused evaluations of local intense precipitation and available physical margin, and the remaining final staffing analyses. In addition, 16 power reactor licensees have completed their SPRA submittals. Four licensees have announced their plans to permanently cease operation of their power reactors and are not expected to be required to respond to the information collections covered by this clearance.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $962,500
