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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The annual burden decreased from 75 hours annually in the previous clearance to 37.5 hours annually (a decrease of 37.5 hours). This is due to a decrease in the estimated number of forms received annually. The burden per response has not changed. The NRC staff is lowering the estimated number of annual responses based on improved data from agency refund tracking system. In addition, the NRC is no longer sending the NRC Form 531 with the annual invoice to entities who have already provided a TIN. This change in the invoicing process resulted in a decrease in the number of forms received and a reduction of duplication. Finally, the fee rate increased from $288 to $317 per hour.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $11,888
