VtLf Privacy Act of 1974; Establishment of a New System of Records AGENCY:
Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION:
Establishment of a new system of records.
SUMMARY
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to establish a new system of records, entitled NRC-32, licensee and Applicant Taxpayer Identification Number Records, in order to obtain tax identification numbers from NRC licensees and applicants. This system will be used by the Office of the Controller, License Fee and Debt Collection Branch, in collecting delinquent debts.
In accordance with 10 CFR Part 15, NRC needs to obtain taxpayer identification numbers from NRC licensees and applicants in order to refer delinquent debts to debt collection agencies. The taxpayer identification numbers will also allow the NRC to report delinquent debtors to consumer reporting agencies (Section 15.26). These efforts are necessary in order to bring NRC's collection procedures into compliance with the Federal Claims Collections Standards.
DATES:
The system of records will take effect without further notice on (30 days after publication in the Federal Register), unless co1T111ents received on or before that date cause a contrary decision. If, based on NRC's review of \IZ.\~l n~
comments received, changes are made, NRC will publish a new final notice.
