III. Proposed Actions
The Agency is requesting that OMB
extend its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in
Subpart A (‘‘General Provisions’’) and
Subpart B (‘‘Confined and Enclosed
Spaces and Other Dangerous
Atmospheres in Shipyard
Employment’’) (29 CFR part 1915). The
Agency is proposing to decrease the
existing burden hour estimate for the
collection of information requirements
specified by subparts A and B. In this
regard, the Agency is proposing to
decrease the current burden hour
estimate from 348,394 hours to 312,774
hours, a total decrease of 35,620 hours.
The decrease is the result of updated
data indicating a decline in the number
of establishments from 717 to 639.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Subpart A (‘‘General
Provisions’’) and Subpart B (‘‘Confined
and Enclosed Spaces and Other
Dangerous Atmospheres in Shipyard
Employment’’) (29 CFR part 1915).
OMB Number: 1218–0011.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 639.
Frequency: On occasion.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from 1 minute (.02 hour) for a secretary
to maintain a training certification
record to 10 minutes (.17 hour) for a
supervisory shipyard production worker
to update, maintain and post either the
required roster or statement at each
shipyard.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
312,774.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.

BILLING CODE 4510–26–P
NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC).
ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to
submit an information collection
request to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) and solicitation of public
comment.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a
submittal to OMB for review of
continued approval of information
collections under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35).
Information pertaining to the
requirement to be submitted:
1. The title of the information
collection: Notice of Enforcement
Discretion (NOEDs) For Operating
Power Reactors and Gaseous Diffusion
Plants (GDP) (NRC Enforcement Policy).
2. Current OMB approval number:
3150–0136.
3. How often the collection is
required: On occasion.
4. Who is required or asked to report:
Nuclear power reactor licensees and
gaseous diffusion plant certificate
holders.
5. The number of annual respondents:
Approximately 14.
6. The number of hours needed
annually to complete the requirement or
request: 1,825.
7. Abstract: The NRC’s Enforcement
Policy addresses circumstances in
which the NRC may exercise
enforcement discretion. A specific type
of enforcement discretion is designated
as a NOED and relates to circumstances
which may arise where a nuclear power
plant licensee’s compliance with a
Technical Specification Limiting
Condition for Operation or other license
conditions would involve: (1) An
unnecessary plant shutdown; (2)
PO 00000
Frm 00075
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
performance of testing, inspection, or
system realignment that is inappropriate
for the specific plant conditions; or (3)
unnecessary delays in plant startup
without a corresponding health and
safety benefit. Similarly, for a gaseous
diffusion plant, circumstances may arise
where compliance with a Technical
Safety Requirement or other condition
would unnecessarily call for a total
plant shutdown, or, compliance would
unnecessarily place the plant in a
condition where safety, safeguards or
security features were degraded or
inoperable.
A licensee or certificate holder
seeking the issuance of an NOED must
provide a written justification, in
accordance with guidance provided in
NRC Inspection Manual, Part 9900,
which documents the safety basis for
the request and provides whatever other
information the NRC staff deems
necessary to decide whether or not to
exercise discretion.
Submit, by April 14, 2008, comments
that address the following questions:
1. Is the proposed collection of
information necessary for the NRC to
properly perform its functions? Does the
information have practical utility?
2. Is the burden estimate accurate?
3. Is there a way to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected?
4. How can the burden of the
information collection be minimized,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology?
A copy of the draft supporting
statement may be viewed free of charge
at the NRC Public Document Room, One
White Flint North, 11555 Rockville
Pike, Room O–1 F21, Rockville, MD
20852. OMB clearance requests are
available at the NRC worldwide Web
site: https://www.nrc.gov/public-involve/
doc-comment/omb/. The
document will be available on the NRC
home page site for 60 days after the
signature date of this notice.
Comments and questions about the
information collection requirements
may be directed to the NRC Clearance
Officer, Margaret A. Janney (T–5 F52),
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,
Washington, DC 20555–0001, by
telephone at 301–415–7245, or by e-mail
to INFOCOLLECTS@NRC.GOV.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 7th day
of February 2008.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Gregory Trussell,
Acting NRC Clearance Officer, Office of
Information Services.
