request the OMB’s approval for the
information collection summarized
below.
1. The title of the information
collection: Part 72 of title 10 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
‘‘Licensing Requirements for the

an average of about 80 per year under
other rule sections. Applications for
new licenses, certificates of compliance
(CoCs), and amendments may be
submitted at any time; applications for
renewal of licenses are required every
40 years for an Independent Spent Fuel
Storage Installation (ISFSI) or CoC
effective May 21, 2011, and every 40
years for a Monitored Retrievable
Storage (MRS) facility.
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: Certificate holders and
applicants for a CoC for spent fuel
storage casks; licensees and applicants

licenses to the Department of Energy to
receive, transfer, package, and possess
power reactor spent fuel and high-level
radioactive waste, and other associated
radioactive materials in an MRS. The
information in the applications, reports,
