SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with § 51.118 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the NRC is making available final Supplement 55 to the GEIS regarding the renewal of Exelon operating licenses NPF–72 and NPF–77 for an additional 20 years of operation for Braidwood. Draft Supplement 55 to the GEIS was noticed by the NRC in the Federal Register on March 25, 2015 (80 FR 15827), and noticed by the Environmental Protection Agency on March 27, 2015 (80 FR 16384). The public comment period on draft Supplement 55 to the GEIS ended on May 12, 2015, and the comments received are addressed in final Supplement 55 to the GEIS. Final Supplement 55 to the GEIS is available as indicated in the ADDRESSES section of this document. As discussed in Chapter 5 of the final Supplement 55 to the GEIS, the NRC determined that the adverse environmental impacts of license renewal for Braidwood are not so great that preserving the option of license renewal for energy-planning decision makers would be unreasonable. This recommendation is based on: (1) The analysis and findings in the GEIS; (2) information provided in the environmental report and other documents submitted by Exelon; (3) consultation with Federal, State, local, VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:00 Nov 18, 2015 Jkt 238001 and Tribal agencies; (4) the NRC staff’s independent environmental review; and (5) consideration of public comments received during the scoping process and on the draft Supplement 55 to the GEIS. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 13 day of November 2015. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. James G. Danna, Chief, Projects Branch 2, Division of License Renewal, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.

II. Background

    Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 
U.S.C. chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of 
an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, ``NRC 
Form 244, Registration Certificate--Use of Depleted Uranium Under 
General License.'' The NRC hereby informs potential respondents that an 
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and that a person is not required to 
respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently 
valid OMB control number.
    The NRC published a Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment 
period on this information collection on June 16, 2015 (80 FR 34466).
    1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 244, 
``Registration Certificate--Use of Depleted Uranium Under General 
License.''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0031.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 244.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: Within 30 
days after the first receipt or acquisition of depleted uranium. Any 
changes in information furnished by the registrant in the NRC Form 244 
shall be reported in writing to the Director, Office of Nuclear 
Material Safety and Safeguards, with a copy to the Regional 
Administrator of the appropriate U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 
Regional Office listed in appendix D of part 20 of title 10 of the Code 
of Federal Regulations (10 CFR); this report shall be submitted within 
30 days after the effective date of such change.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Persons who receive,

    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 9.4 
hours (1.3 NRC licensee hours and 8.1 Agreement State licensee hours).
    10. Abstract: Part 40 of 10 CFR establishes requirements for the

byproduct materials. Section 40.25 established a general license 
authorizing the use of depleted uranium contained in industrial 
products or devices for the purpose of providing a concentrated mass in

conformance with the NRC's regulations for the protection of public 
health and safety.
