Terms of Clearance:
In accordance with 5 CFR 1320.11(c), OMB is filing comment and withholding approval at this time. This OMB action is not an approval to conduct or sponsor an information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This action has no effect on any current approvals. If OMB has assigned this ICR anew OMB Control Number, the OMB Control Number will not appear in the active inventory. The Agency shall examine public comment in response to the proposed rulemaking and include in the supporting statement of the next ICR--to be submitted to OMB at the final rule stage--a description of how the agency has responded to any public comments on the ICR, including comments on maximizing the practical utility of the collection and minimizing the burden. Given that the cost estimates presented rely largely on non-public data, the agency is requested to work with OMB to increase the amount of quality supporting information underlying the cost estimates before this information collection is submitted for renewal. Lastly, the supporting statement submitted at final rule stage should include any changes that occurred between the proposed and final rule related to this ICR.

Abstract:
Alternative Physical Security Requirements for Advanced Reactors - PROPOSED RULE The proposed rule would result in changes in reporting, recordkeeping, and third-party disclosure requirements relative to existing rules by providing certain alternative, risk-informed, performance-based physical security requirements for advanced reactors. Part 50 and part 52 advanced reactor applicants electing to apply an alternative would need to provide a description of the technical analysis required by proposed § 73.55(s)(1)(iv) relating to eligibility to use the alternatives. These part 50 and part 52 advanced reactor applicants or licensees would also be required to maintain a record of the technical analysis related to eligibility until the certifications of cessation of operations required by §§ 50.82(a)(1) or 52.110(a) have been docketed by the NRC. In addition, advanced reactor licensees relying on law enforcement or other offsite armed responders would need to provide information about the facilities and make available periodic training to these responders. Finally, the proposed rule would require part 50 and part 52 advanced reactor licensees, who make changes to or are aware of changes to plant features or offsite support resources described in the technical analysis, to prepare a report that considers the effect of changes and describes how the licensee will continue to meet the requirements in proposed § 73.55(s)(1)(ii) that the consequences of a postulated radiological release that results from a postulated security-initiated event does not exceed the offsite dose reference values. These new and amended information collections would be required to ensure the NRC has the necessary information to review whether an applicant or licensee has demonstrated they have met the proposed requirement to be eligible to use any of the proposed alternatives. The collected information would also be used by the NRC to review and determine whether the applicant or licensee has met the requirements for each elected alternative.

Short Statement:
The proposed rule would increase the burden for the Part 52 information collection by 1,002 hours, from 307,465 hours to 308,467 hours. The estimated change to the reporting burden is an increase of 1,002 hours due to the proposed rule requiring future Part 52 licensees that choose to utilize the alternative performance-based physical security plan to submit, as part of their FSAR, a description of the technical analysis required by 10 CFR 73.55(s)(1)(iv).
