Short Statement:
The overall burden hours for this collection has decreased from 796 hours in the previous cycle to 753 total hours in this cycle (an overall decrease of 43 hours). Changes in burden include: • There is a reduction of operating reactor licensees submitting information related to Section 140.21, this number has been reduced from 98 in the previous cycle to 89 in this cycle resulting in a reduction of 72 hours; the burden per response was not affected. • 10 hours have been removed under the Section 140.8, no submission have been received in the previous two cycles, therefore, none are anticipated for this cycle. • The number of responses increased to include 15 licensees reporting under Section 140.13, an increase of 13 licensees and 13 hours • The previous submission inadvertently omitted recordkeeping burden maintaining these documents under 140.6(b); the burden has been included in the current submission. Industry has not indicated a significant amount of time is required to maintain these documents electronically. Therefore, the total annual recordkeeping burden is estimated at 15 minutes annually, or 26 hours for all respondents. In addition, this change increased by the number of responses by adding 104 recordkeeping responses. An increase in cost is also due to the increase in fee rate, from $263/hour to $279/hour.
