to gather and analyze original data to:
(1) Better understand achievements,
uses, impacts, and remaining needs for
its program of annual formula-based
library Grants to States from

(2) Relate services provided through
Grants to States to all library services
provided by the State Library
Administrative Agencies in this period
and understand the contribution of
Grants to States to stimulating funding
for library services;
(3) Relate these services to library
services and trends in general in this
period; and
(4) Better understand the function and
impact of the program in the national
context of library services.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a
submittal to OMB for review of
continued approval of information

collection: 10 CFR part 100, ‘‘Reactor
Site Criteria.’’
2. Current OMB approval number:
3150–0093.
3. How often the collection is
required: As necessary in order for the
NRC to assess the adequacy of proposed
seismic design bases and the design
bases for other site hazards for nuclear
power and test reactors constructed and
licensed in accordance with 10 CFR
parts 50 and 52 and the Atomic Energy
Act of 1954, as amended.
4. Who is required or asked to report:
Applicants and licensees for nuclear
power and test reactors.
5. The number of annual respondents:
Approximately 9.
6. The number of hours needed
annually to complete the requirement or
request per applicant: 657,000 (73,000
hours per applicant).
7. Abstract: 10 CFR part 100, ‘‘Reactor
Site Criteria,’’ establishes approval
requirements for proposed sites for the
purpose of constructing and operating
stationary power and testing reactors
pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR
parts 50 or 52. These reactors are
required to be sited, designed,
constructed and maintained to
withstand geologic hazards, such as
faulting, seismic hazards, and the
maximum credible earthquake, to
protect the health and safety of the
public and the environment. Nonseismic siting criteria must also be
evaluated. Non-seismic siting criteria

include such factors as population
density, the proximity of man-related
hazards, and site atmospheric
dispersion characteristics. NRC uses the
information required by 10 CFR part 100
to evaluate whether natural phenomena
and potential man-made hazards will be
appropriately accounted for in the
design of nuclear power and test
reactors.
Submit, by May 2, 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?
