DRAFT OMB SUPPORTING STATEMENT FOR NRC POLICY STATEMENT, CRITERIA FOR GUIDANCE OF STATES AND NRC IN DISCONTINUANCE OF NRC REGULATORY AUTHORITY AND ASSUMPTION THEREOF BY STATES THROUGH AGREEMENT, MAINTENANCE OF EXISTING AGREEMENT STATE PROGRAMS, REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION THROUGH THE INTEGRATED MATERIALS PERFORMANCE EVALUATION PROGRAM (IMPEP) QUESTIONNAIRE, AND AGREEMENT STATE PARTICIPATION IN IMPEP (3150-0183)

EXTENSION Description of the Information Collection States seeking to regulate certain Atomic Energy Act (Act) radioactive materials are requested to submit information directly to the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC), Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) related to the management, structure, and performance of their radiation control programs (RCPs) in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 274 of the Act and the criteria identified in the NRC Policy Statement, Criteria for Guidance of States and NRC in Discontinuance of NRC Regulatory Authority and Assumption Thereof By States Through Agreement (noticed in the Federal Register 46 FR 7540, January 23, 1981; as amended by policy statements published at 46 FR 36969, July 16, 1981, and 48 FR 33376, July 21, 1983). This policy statement identifies the factors considered by NRC prior to approving new or amended Agreements. A State that has entered into such an Agreement is referred to as an Agreement State. Presently, there are 38 Agreement States, which regulate approximately 86 percent of the byproduct, source, and certain special nuclear material licensees in the United States.

The NRC is required to evaluate Agreement State programs to ensure that its RCP remains adequate and compatible with the requirements of Section 274 of the Act. The NRC implemented a process, noticed in the Federal Register, known as the Integrated Materials Performance Evaluation Program (IMPEP) to evaluate NRC Regional licensing and inspection programs and Agreement State RCPs for adequacy and compatibility. These performance-based reviews are conducted in accordance with Management Directive 5.6, Integrated Materials Performance Evaluation Program (IMPEP)and are routinely conducted approximately every 4 years. A questionnaire (Attachment 1) is used by IMPEP review teams to gather information about the RCP to assist the IMPEP team in conducting the evaluation of the adequacy of the States program to protect public health and safety and determining the compatibility of the program with the NRCs regulatory program. The IMPEP questionnaire also includes a request for material to be available for the on-site portion of the IMPEP review. The Agreement States requested that such a questionnaire be developed to facilitate the IMPEP review.

The questionnaire requests information about the following RCP performance indicators:

a. Technical Staffing and Training
b. Status of Materials Inspection Program
c. Technical Quality of Inspections
d. Technical Quality of Licensing Actions
e. Technical Quality of Incident and Allegation Activities
f. Legislation, Regulations, and Other Program Elements
g. Sealed Source and Device Evaluation Program
h. Low-level Radioactive Waste Disposal Program
i. Uranium Recovery Program A. JUSTIFICATION
1. Need For and Practical Utility of the Collection of Information Section 274 of the Act permits the NRC to relinquish portions of its regulatory authority to States. The mechanism for this transfer of authority is a formal Agreement between the NRC and the Governor of the State and issuance of an exemption to licensed persons in accordance with 10 CFR 150.10. The Act requires the NRC to perform periodic reviews of each Agreement State to ensure that its RCP remains adequate and compatible with the requirements of the Act.

The information covered by this request is required by NRC in order to evaluate: (1) the adequacy of a States RCP to protect public health and safety, and (2) the compatibility of a States RCP with NRCs program.

2. Agency Use of Information As required by the Act, information received from the States under this program assists the NRC in determining: (1) the adequacy of a States RCP to protect public health and safety, and (2) the compatibility of a States RCP with NRCs program.
3. Reduction of Burden Through Information Technology The NRC has issued Guidance for Electronic Submissions to the NRC which provides direction for the electronic transmission and submittal of documents to the NRC.

Electronic transmission and submittal of documents can be accomplished via the following avenues: the Electronic Information Exchange (EIE) process, which is available from the NRC's Electronic Submittals Web page, by Optical Storage Media (OSM) (e.g.

CD-ROM, DVD), by facsimile or by e-mail. It is estimated that approximately 99% of the responses are filed electronically.

4. Effort to Identify Duplication and Use Similar Information No sources of similar information are available. There is no duplication of requirements.
5. Effort to Reduce Small Business Burden These information collections do not affect small businesses.
6. Consequences to Federal Program or Policy Activities if the Collection Is Not Conducted or Is Conducted Less Frequently The collection of information less frequently than in association with periodic IMPEP reviews of Agreement States, which are currently conducted approximately every 4 years, would significantly reduce the efficiency and effectiveness of those reviews. The NRC believes that gathering information at the time of the review assures that the determination of the adequacy to protect public health and safety and the compatibility of an Agreement State program with NRCs program is based on current information.
7. Circumstances Which Justify Variation from OMB Guidelines There is no variation from OMB guidelines.
8. Consultations Outside the NRC Opportunity for public comment on the information collection requirements for this clearance package has been published in the Federal Register.
9. Payment or Gift to Respondents Not applicable.
10. Confidentiality of Information Confidential and proprietary information is protected in accordance with NRC regulations at 10 CFR 9.17(a) and 10 CFR 2.390(b). However, no information normally considered confidential or proprietary is requested.
11. Justification for Sensitive Questions The NRC does not require the State to submit any sensitive information.
12. Estimated Burden and Burden Hour Cost This information collection affects 40 respondents during the 3-year clearance period: 38 existing Agreement States, 1 Agreement State application currently being reviewed by the NRC1, and 1 anticipated new application.

Questionnaire The NRC has requested approximately 12 of the existing 38 Agreement States to respond to an IMPEP questionnaire annually. They expend an average of 53 hours6.134259e-4 days <br />0.0147 hours <br />8.763227e-5 weeks <br />2.01665e-5 months <br /> per Agreement State program, or a total of 636 hours0.00736 days <br />0.177 hours <br />0.00105 weeks <br />2.41998e-4 months <br /> annually, for a cost of $174,900 (636 hours0.00736 days <br />0.177 hours <br />0.00105 weeks <br />2.41998e-4 months <br /> x $275/hour). This estimate includes the recordkeeping burden for the IMPEP questionnaire. This burden does not include the burdens to Agreement State licensees, which are included in OMB clearances for each 10 CFR Part.

Policy Statement and Maintenance of Program New Agreement State Applications. The NRC estimated that a State seeking an Agreement expends approximately 6,750 hours0.00868 days <br />0.208 hours <br />0.00124 weeks <br />2.85375e-4 months <br /> over a 3-year period or 2,250 hours0.00289 days <br />0.0694 hours <br />4.133598e-4 weeks <br />9.5125e-5 months <br /> annually (6,750 hours0.00868 days <br />0.208 hours <br />0.00124 weeks <br />2.85375e-4 months <br /> divided by 3 years) preparing a proposal for a new Agreement. As a planning assumption the NRC staff anticipates receiving one new Agreement State application over the next three years at an annual cost of $618,750 (2,250 hours0.00289 days <br />0.0694 hours <br />4.133598e-4 weeks <br />9.5125e-5 months <br /> x

$275/hour). There is no additional recordkeeping burden associated with new Agreement State applications.

Participation in IMPEP Reviews. IMPEP review teams are composed of NRC and Agreement State staff. The Agreement State team members participate annually in 10 1

The NRC staff is reviewing the Vermont Agreement State application and it is anticipated that the Commission will make a final decision on the Vermont Agreement State application by September 30, 2019.

Agreement State IMPEP reviews, 1 NRC Regional review and 2 Agreement State follow-up reviews. Each review is estimated to take 180 hours0.00208 days <br />0.05 hours <br />2.97619e-4 weeks <br />6.849e-5 months <br /> for a total of 2,340 staff hours per year (180 hours0.00208 days <br />0.05 hours <br />2.97619e-4 weeks <br />6.849e-5 months <br /> x 13 reviews). This estimate is based on the length of time for States to conduct the entire review (prepare, conduct, and document the review). The NRC estimated that 20 percent or a total of 468 hours0.00542 days <br />0.13 hours <br />7.738095e-4 weeks <br />1.78074e-4 months <br /> annually (0.2 x 2,340 hours0.00394 days <br />0.0944 hours <br />5.621693e-4 weeks <br />1.2937e-4 months <br />) of this burden is spent on the information collection activities. Thus, the average burden per review is 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br /> (468 hours0.00542 days <br />0.13 hours <br />7.738095e-4 weeks <br />1.78074e-4 months <br /> per year divided by 13 reviews). The annual cost for participation in the IMPEP program is estimated to be $128,700 (468 hours0.00542 days <br />0.13 hours <br />7.738095e-4 weeks <br />1.78074e-4 months <br /> x $275/hour).

There is no additional recordkeeping burden associated with participation in IMPEP reviews.

Agreement State Program Maintenance. The number of hours to maintain Agreement State programs (expressed in full-time equivalents or FTE) varies depending on the number of licensees in the State and the scope of their Agreement (for example, some States have authority for special programs like low-level waste or uranium recovery that would require additional FTE). The NRC estimates that it takes the Agreement States approximately 10.5 FTE to maintain their programs, or a total of 409.5 FTE annually (10.5 FTE per state for a total of 39 Agreement States (38 existing Agreement States plus the 1 application currently under review)). As such, the total effort for the 39 Agreement States is estimated to be 737,100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> annually (409.5 FTE x 1,800 hours0.00926 days <br />0.222 hours <br />0.00132 weeks <br />3.044e-4 months <br /> per FTE). For the purpose of this analysis, the NRC estimated that 40 percent of this burden is spent on information collection activities associated with the Agreement State program implementation. This will constitute a total paperwork burden of 294,840 hours0.00972 days <br />0.233 hours <br />0.00139 weeks <br />3.1962e-4 months <br /> per year (0.40 x 737,100). This estimate includes any burden associated with recordkeeping.

The NRC estimated that the average burden for each Agreement State is 7,560 hours0.00648 days <br />0.156 hours <br />9.259259e-4 weeks <br />2.1308e-4 months <br /> per year (294,840 hours0.00972 days <br />0.233 hours <br />0.00139 weeks <br />3.1962e-4 months <br /> per year divided by 39 Agreement States). The annual cost for Agreement State program maintenance is therefore estimated to be $81,081,000 (294,840 hours0.00972 days <br />0.233 hours <br />0.00139 weeks <br />3.1962e-4 months <br /> x $275 hour).

The following summary table indicates the estimated annual burden for the information collection activities, as discussed above, required by the IMPEP questionnaire, policy statement for new Agreement States, participation in the IMPEP program, and maintenance of the existing Agreement State programs. The total burden for this information collection is estimated to be 298,194 hours0.00225 days <br />0.0539 hours <br />3.207672e-4 weeks <br />7.3817e-5 months <br /> with a cost of $82,003,350 (298,194 hours0.00225 days <br />0.0539 hours <br />3.207672e-4 weeks <br />7.3817e-5 months <br /> x $275 hour), or an average of 7,455 hours0.00527 days <br />0.126 hours <br />7.523148e-4 weeks <br />1.731275e-4 months <br /> per respondent.

The $275 hourly rate used in the burden estimates is based on the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions fee for hourly rates as noted in 10 CFR 170.20 Average cost per professional staff-hour. For more information on the basis of this rate, see the Revision of Fee Schedules; Fee Recovery for Fiscal Year 2018 (83 FR 29622, June 25, 2018).

13. Estimate of Other Additional Costs There are no additional costs.
14. Estimated Annualized Cost to the Federal Government The staff has developed estimates of annualized costs to the Federal Government related to the conduct of this collection of information. These estimates are based on staff experience and subject matter expertise and include the burden needed to review, analyze, and process the collected information and any relevant operational expenses.

Based on data from the agencys time and labor reporting system, NRC staff expends approximately 8,598 staff-hours annually evaluating review information of established Agreement States in support of the IMPEP review program. Of these 8,598 hours0.00692 days <br />0.166 hours <br />9.887566e-4 weeks <br />2.27539e-4 months <br />, it is estimated that approximately 30 percent or a total of 2,579 hours0.0067 days <br />0.161 hours <br />9.573413e-4 weeks <br />2.203095e-4 months <br /> (0.30 x 8,598 hours0.00692 days <br />0.166 hours <br />9.887566e-4 weeks <br />2.27539e-4 months <br />) is expended on information collection activities. Based upon current estimates, using the rate of $275 per hour, the annual cost to the Federal Government is approximately

$709,225 (2,579 hours0.0067 days <br />0.161 hours <br />9.573413e-4 weeks <br />2.203095e-4 months <br /> x $275/hour).

The NRC expends approximately 7,589 staff-hours annually evaluating information submitted by established Agreement States in maintenance of their program. Of these 7,589 hours0.00682 days <br />0.164 hours <br />9.738757e-4 weeks <br />2.241145e-4 months <br />, the NRC estimated that approximately 25 percent or a total of 1,897 hours0.0104 days <br />0.249 hours <br />0.00148 weeks <br />3.413085e-4 months <br /> (0.25 x 7,589 hours0.00682 days <br />0.164 hours <br />9.738757e-4 weeks <br />2.241145e-4 months <br />) is expended on information collection activities. Based on current estimates, using rate of $275 per hour, the annual cost to the Federal Government is approximately $521,675 (1,897 hours0.0104 days <br />0.249 hours <br />0.00148 weeks <br />3.413085e-4 months <br /> x $275/hour).

The NRC expends approximately 1,575 staff-hours annually evaluating a State application to become an Agreement State. Of these 1,575 hours0.00666 days <br />0.16 hours <br />9.507275e-4 weeks <br />2.187875e-4 months <br />, it is estimated that approximately 20 percent or a total of 315 hours0.00365 days <br />0.0875 hours <br />5.208333e-4 weeks <br />1.198575e-4 months <br /> (0.20 x 1,575 hours0.00666 days <br />0.16 hours <br />9.507275e-4 weeks <br />2.187875e-4 months <br />) is expended on information collection activities. Based upon the above noted rates, the annual cost to Federal Government is approximately $86,625 (315 hours0.00365 days <br />0.0875 hours <br />5.208333e-4 weeks <br />1.198575e-4 months <br /> x $275/hour) per application.

The total annual cost to the Federal Government for one State application is approximately $86,625 ($86,625 multiplied by 1 State applications).

Therefore, the total annual cost to the Federal Government to review new and existing Agreement States is approximately $1,317,525 ($790,225 + $521,675 + $86,625).

15. Reasons for Change in Burden or Cost There has been an increase in the overall burden of 10,236 hours0.00273 days <br />0.0656 hours <br />3.902116e-4 weeks <br />8.9798e-5 months <br /> from, 287,958 hours0.0111 days <br />0.266 hours <br />0.00158 weeks <br />3.64519e-4 months <br /> to 298,194 hours0.00225 days <br />0.0539 hours <br />3.207672e-4 weeks <br />7.3817e-5 months <br /> annually. This increase is primarily due to the addition of the State of Wyoming as the 38th Agreement State in September 2018, and anticipated completion of Vermont Agreement State application review in September 2019, resulting in an 10,236 hour0.00273 days <br />0.0656 hours <br />3.902116e-4 weeks <br />8.9798e-5 months <br /> increase in the burden associated with Agreement State Program Maintenance. Other factors impacting the overall burden include:
  • An increase in the estimated number of Agreement State questionnaires is 12, up from 9, resulting in an increase overall burden of 159 hours0.00184 days <br />0.0442 hours <br />2.628968e-4 weeks <br />6.04995e-5 months <br /> annually.
  • A decrease in the estimated number of new Agreement State applications and the level of effort required for the States to complete these applications. While several States have indicated that there is interest in becoming Agreement States, the NRC has not received any letters of intent for pending new Agreement State applications.

The NRC has also determined that the level of effort required to complete the new application process has been reduced by 500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> due to efficiencies gained during the recent development and review of several new Agreement State applications (e.g., WY and VT). As such, the NRC is estimating an overall reduction in burden of 2250 hours0.026 days <br />0.625 hours <br />0.00372 weeks <br />8.56125e-4 months <br /> annually.

  • An increase in the participation in IMPEP reviews from 11 to 13, resulting in an increase in overall burden on 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.
  • An increase in the hourly rate changed from $268 per hour to $275 per hour.
16. Publication for Statistical Use This information will not be published for statistical use.
17. Reason for Not Displaying the Expiration Date The NRC believes that it is impractical to put the expiration date in the Policy Statement for Criteria for Guidance of States and NRC in Discontinuance of NRC Regulatory Authority and Assumption Thereof by States Through Agreement. By supplying the expiration, the NRC would be required to republish the policy statement every time a renewal of the information collection requirements is approved by OMB. The expiration date appears on the IMPEP questionnaire.
18. Exceptions to the Certification Statement No exceptions B. COLLECTIONS OF INFORMATION EMPLOYING STATISTICAL METHODS Statistical methods are not used in this collection of information.
