The NRC is issu ing this F Y 2024 proposed fee r ule based on the FY 2024 budget request as further described in the NRCs F Y 2024 Congressional B udget Justification ( CBJ) (NUREG-1100, Volume 39) beca use a full-year app ropriation has not y et be en enacted for FY 2024. The pr oposed fee rule reflects a total budg et au thority i n the amount of $1006.3 million, an increase of $79.1 million f rom F Y 2023. The FY 2024 budget request proposes t he use of $27. 1 million in carryover to offset the Nuclear R eactor S afety bud get, r esulting in a gross budget authority of $ 979.2 million, which is an increase of $52.1 million f rom FY 2023. As exp lained in the proposed fee rule, c ertain portions of t he N RCs t otal bu dget authority for t he fiscal ye ar are excluded from N EIMAs f ee-recovery requirement un der S ection 102(b)(1)(B) of N EIMA. B ased on the FY 2024 CBJ, t hese exclusions t otal $156.0 m illion, c onsisting of $104.2 million for f ee-relief a ctivities; $34.2 million f or advanced r eactor r egulatory i nfrastructure act ivities; $15.1 million for gene ric ho meland se curity activities; $1.0 million for w aste incidental to reprocessing activities; and $1.5 million for I nspector General s ervices f or t he Defense Nuclear Facilities S afety B oard.
Based on the 100 percent f ee-recovery requirement, the NRC w ill have to recover ap proximately
$823.2 million in FY 2024 through 10 CF R Part 170 licensing and inspection fees and 10 CFR Part 171 annual f ees. The amount required by l aw t o be recovered t hrough fees f or FY 2024 would be
$35.1 million more t han the amount estimated for recovery in FY 2023, an increase of 4.4 percent.
The FY 2024 fee recovery amount is increased by $2.5 million to account for billing adjustments (i.e., for F Y 2024 invoices t hat t he NRC es timates w ill not be paid during the fiscal year, less payments received in FY 2024 for p rior ye ar i nvoices). This l eaves app roximately $825.7 million t o be billed as fees i n FY 2024 through 10 CFR P art 170 l icensing and inspection fees an d 10 CFR Part 171 annual f ees.
The NRC est imates t hat $205.5 million would be recovered from 10 CF R Part 170 fees i n FY 2024.
This represents an increase of $10.5 million or approximately 5.4 percent as compared to the estimated 10 CFR P art 17 0 collections of $19 5.0 million f or F Y 2 023. The remaining $620.2 million would be recovered through the 10 CFR P art 17 1 annual f ees i n FY 2024, wh ich is an increase of
$24.6 million wh en compared to estimated 10 CF R Part 171 collections o f $595.6 million for FY 2023.

The NRCs pro fessional hourly rate is derive d by a dding budge ted r esourc es fo r (1 ) mission-direct progr am sala ries an d ben efits; ( 2) missio n indir ect-p rogr am sup port; and (3) agency s uppo rt (corpo rate s uppo rt an d the I nspect or Ge neral (IG), then s ubtr acting ce rtain offsettin g recei pts an d then dividin g this tot al by missio n direc t full-tim e equiv alents ( FTE ) c onve rted t o hou rs. T he only budget ed res ources exclude d fro m the prof essional hourly rate are t hose f or missio n-dir ect contract activities.
The NRC has reviewed and analyzed actual ti me an d labo r dat a in th e NRCs Human C apital Manag ement Cloud S ystem for t he m ost rec ent co mplete d fiscal yea r ( FY 2023 ) to d eter mine if t he annual di rect h ours wo rked p er di rect FTE estim ate r equires upd ating fo r the FY 20 24 fee rule.
B ased on this review usin g actu al time and lab or d ata, t he NRC dete rmine d tha t 1,500 ho urs is th e best estima te of direct hours w orked annu ally per direct FTE. This estim ate exclu des all n on-di rect activities, such as annu al leave, sick leave, holidays, t raining, and gene ral ad ministra tion tasks.
Definitions of Professional Hourly Rate Components
Mission-Di rect Pro g ram Sal ari es an d Ben efi ts:
These resources are allocated to perform core work activities committed to fulfillin g the agencys mission of prot ect ing public health and safety, promoting the common defense and security, and prot ect ing the environment. These resources include the maj ority of the resources assigned under the direct business lines (Operating Reactors, New Reactors, Fuel Facilit ies, Nucle ar M at er ials Users, Decommissioning and Low-Leve l Waste, and Spent fuel Storage and Transportation) are core work activities considered mission-direct.
Mission-I nd i rect Program Support :
These resources support the core mission-dir ect act ivit ies. These resources include f or example, supervisory and n onsupervisory support, and mission travel and training. S upervisory and nonsupervisory support, and mission travel and training resources assigned under direct business line st ruct ure, are considered mission-indirect due to their supporting role of the core mission act ivit ies.
Agency Support (Corporate Support and the IG) :
These resources are located in executive, administrative, and other support offices such as the Office of the Commission, the Office of the Secretary, the Office of the Executive Director for Operations, the Offices of Congressional and Pub lic Affairs, the Office of the Inspector General, the Office of Administration, the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, the Office of the Chief Information Officer, the Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer and the Office of Small Business and Civi l Rights. These r esources administer the corporate or shared efforts that more broadly support the act ivit ies of the agency. These resources also include information technology services, human capital services, financial management and administrative support.
O ffsetti n g Recei p ts:
The fees collected by the NRC for the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and Indemnity (financial protection required of licensees for public liab il ity claims of 10 CFR Part 140) are subtracted from the budgeted resources amount when calculating the 10 CFR Par t 170 prof essional hourly rate per the guidance in OMB Circular A-25 User Charges. The budgeted resources for FOIA activities are allocated under the product for information services within the Corporate Support business line. The indemnity activities are allocated under the licensing actions and the Research and Test Reactors products within the Operating Reactors business line.
Estimated Annual Mission Direct FTE Productive hours :
Also referred to as the productive hours estimation, reflects the average number of hours that a mission-direct employee spends on mission-d irect w ork in a given year. This excludes hours charged to annual leave, sick leave, holidays, training and general administration tasks. The productive hours is calculated using actual time and labor data in HCM Clo ud (minus support and supervisory staff).
Total hours in mission business lines Total hours in mission business lines X Total work hours in ayear (2,087) = Productive Hours
+ Other Hours
2,007,966 X Total work hours in a 2,797,041 year (2,087) = 1,500
Elements of the formula are defined as follows:
- M i ssi on Busi ne ss Li ne s. The Operating Reactors, New Reactors, Nuclear Materials Users, Fuel Facilities, Spent Fuel Storage and Transportation, and Decommissioning and Low-level W a st e Busi ne ss Li ne s.
- H our s i n M i ssi on Busi ne ss Li ne s. Hour s charged to cost accountability codes for mission-direct work.
- Other Hours. Includes hours charged to annual leave, sick leave, holidays, etc., and hours charged to cost accountability codes for training and general admini st ra ti ve ta sks.
- Hours in a Work Year. 2,087 hours0.00101 days <br />0.0242 hours <br />1.438492e-4 weeks <br />3.31035e-5 months <br /> is used to be consistent with OPM guidance on computing hourly rates of pay and the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (Public Law 99-272, April 7, 1986).

Service Fees
Section III.A.2
Flat application fees are calculated by multiplying the average professional staff hours needed to process the licensing actions by the proposed professional hourly rate ($321 for FY 2024). The agency estimates the average professional staff hours every other year as part of its biennial review of fees which was performed in FY 2023.
Full cost fees are determined based on the professional staff time and appropriate contractual support of services. The full cost fees for professional staff time will be determined at the professional hourly rate in effect the time the service was provided.
The NRC estimates the amount of 10 CFR Part 170 fees for each fee class based on established fee methodology guidelines (42 FR 22149; May 2, 1977), which specified that the NRC has the authority to recover the full cost of providing services to identifiable beneficiaries. The NRC uses these established guidelines to apply the most current financial data and workload projections by offices and divisions to calculate the 10 CFR Part 170 fee estimates. Current financial data includes: 1) four quarters of the most recent billing data (professional hourly rate invoice data);
- 2) actual contractual work charged (prior period data) to develop contract work estimates; and
- 3) the number of FTE hours charged, multiplied by the NRC professional hourly rate.

- 1. Percentages to allocate remainder of Generic Low-Level Waste resources to Power Reactors, Fuel Facilities, and Materials
DOEs Manifest Information Management System (MIMS) database was used to determine a 5-year average ( Calendar Years 2018 - 2022) based on the DOE MIMS Clas s. The following were the results as of 03/13/2023:
Power Reactor: 73.3%
Fuel Facilities: 8.8%
Materials: 17.9%
87% of the Materials portion from the above distribution is allocated to Oversight of Agreement States (AS) off-fee base category. This results in the following distribution:
Power Reactor: 73.3%
Fuel Facilities: 8.8%
Materials (NRC): 2.3%
Materials (AS): 15.6 % *Allocate to Oversight of AS Fee Relief Category
To adjust the above Power Reactor, Fuel Facilities, and Materials (NRC) percentages, the percentages are divided by the total of the remainder after the AS portions were removed (100% - 15.6% = 84.4 %).
Power Reactor 73.3%/84.4% = 86. 9%
Fuel Facilities 8.8 %/84.4% = 10.4%
Materials (NRC) 2.3%/8 4.4% = 2.7%
10 CFR Part 171 Annual Fees
Operating Power Reactors
Section III.B.2.a
Table VI
In FY 2024, the NRC proposes to collect $515.9 million in annual fees from the operating power reactors fee class. The fee-recoverable budgeted costs are divided equally among the 94 licensed operating power reactors. This results in a FY 2024 proposed annual fee of $5,4 88,000 per operating power reactor. Additionally, the NRC estimates that each licensed operating power reactor will be assessed the FY 2024 spent fuel storage/reactor decommissioning proposed annual fee of $330,000. The NRC estimates that the combined FY 2024 proposed annual fee for each operating power reactor will be $5, 818,000.
Note: In FY 2016, the NRC amended 10 CFR 171.15 to establish a variable annual fee structure for light-water reactor (LWR) small modular reactors (SMRs) (81 FR 32617; May 24, 2016). In FY 2023, the NRC further amended part 171.5 to: 1) expand the applicability of the SMR variable fee structure to include non-LWR SMRs; and 2) establish an additional minimum fee and variable rate applicable to SMRs with a licensed thermal power rating of less than or equal to 250 megawatts-thermal (MWt) (88 FR 39120; June 15, 2023). This revision to the SMR variable annual fee structure retained the bundled unit concept for SMRs and the approach for calculating fees for reactors, or bundled units, with licensed thermal power ratings greater than 250 MWt.
Currently, there are no operating SMRs; therefore, the NRC will not assess an annual fee in FY 2024 for this type of licensee.

FY 2024
The total transportation budgeted costs of $9,701,454 to be recovered from annual fees (not including fee-relief adjustments) is to be obtained from two sources:
- 1. Department of Energy (DOE)--has own annual fee (fee category 18A)
- 2. Other licensees (included in their annual fees)
Distribute these costs to DOE and the fee classes based on the percentage of CoCs benefitting (used) per fee class:

Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
Section IV.
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), as amended 5 U.S.C. § 601 et seq., requires that agencies consider the impact of their rulemakings on small entities and, consistent with applicable statutes, consider alternatives to minimize these impacts on the businesses, organizations, and government jurisdictions to which they apply.
Additionally, the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA) requires all Federal agencies to prepare a written compliance guide for each rule for which the agency is required to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis. The NRC, in compliance with the law, prepared the FY 2023 Small Entity Compliance Guide for the FY 2023 fee rule. The compliance guide was developed when the NRC completed the small entity biennial review for FY 2023. The NRC plans to continue to use this compliance guide for FY 2024 and has relabeled the compliance guide to reflect the current FY.
Licensees may use this guide to determine whether they qualify as a small entity under NRC regulations and are eligible to pay reduced FY 2024 annual fees assessed under 10 CFR Part 171.
The NRC has established two tiers of annual fees for those materials licensees who qualify as small entities under the NRCs size standards.
