II. Background Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently PO 00000 Frm 00063 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 24901 submitted a request for renewal of an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, ‘‘Voluntary Reporting of Performance Indicators.’’ 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 January 8, 2021, (86 FR 1544). 1. The title of the information collection: ‘‘Voluntary Reporting of Performance Indicators.’’ 2. OMB approval number: 3150–0195. 3. Type of submission: Revision. 4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable. 5. How often the collection is required or requested: Quarterly for Performance Indicator reporting and on occasion for the Frequently Asked Question process. 6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Power reactor licensees. 7. The estimated number of annual responses: 380 (359 reporting responses + 21 recordkeepers). 8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 89. 9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: The total reporting and recordkeeping burden is 77,734 (76,660 hours reporting + 1,074 hours recordkeeping). 10. Abstract: As part of a joint industry-NRC initiative, the NRC receives information submitted voluntarily by power reactor licensees regarding selected performance attributes known as performance indicators (PIs). Performance indicators are objective measures of the performance of licensee systems or programs. The NRC uses PI information and inspection results in its Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) to make decisions about plant performance and regulatory response. Licensees transmit PIs electronically to reduce burden on themselves and the NRC. Licensees also participate in the ROP Performance Indicator Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) process that it is used to resolve interpretation issues with NEI 99–02. The FAQ process and white papers may also be used to propose changes to NEI 99–02 guidance and the PI Program. The NRC and industry review FAQs and white papers and work to achieve resolution during periodic public meetings. Dated: May 5, 2021.

AGENCY: The United States Postal Service (USPSTM) is proposing to create a new General Privacy Act System of Records. SUMMARY: These revisions will become effective without further notice on June 9, 2021 unless comments received on or before that date result in a contrary determination. DATES: Comments may be submitted via email to the Privacy and Records Management Office, United States Postal Service Headquarters (privacy@usps.gov). Arrangements to view copies of any written comments received, to facilitate public inspection, will be made upon request. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Janine Castorina, Chief Privacy and Records Management Officer, Privacy and Records Management Office, 202– 268–3069 or privacy@usps.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ADDRESSES: khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Background The world of commercial information technology resources (‘‘IT’’) is constantly changing and innovating to improve the daily lives of businesses, their employees, and their customers. This pace can often result in unanticipated obsolescence, necessitating review of an organization’s already implemented solutions. For the Postal Service, legal processes and notice required by the Privacy Act present additional challenges, as new technologies will require further review for possible compliance issues to meet statutory and regulatory requirements. To better meet the changing technology world, the Postal Service will consolidate existing Systems of Records (‘‘SOR’’s) covering IT into three new, comprehensive Systems of Records. These SORs will work in tandem, with each individual SOR covering a specific group of related functions, and all three SORs working together to support a seamless technology experience. VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:05 May 07, 2021 Jkt 253001 These SORs, generally, will cover the following three areas: • Infrastructure, covering records created for use throughout the entirety of a particular IT resource in addition to covering the records created from the usage of those records by users and applications. • Applications, covering records created through the regular use of an application. • Administrative, covering records created for monitoring and administration of users and applications within an IT resource. In addition to covering these three areas generally, the Postal Service will look ahead in an effort to include possible future technology solutions within this System of Records. This will give the Postal Service flexibility to more easily adapt to the advancing pace of information technology and to better fulfill its service obligations. This will also provide transparency into the collection of records relating to commercial IT, allowing Postal employees, contractors, and the public to more easily identify what we do with their information. Rationale for the Creation of a New USPS System of Records Currently, records relating to the implementation of IT resources are housed primarily in USPS 500.000, Property Management Records, with other IT-related components appearing in 890.000, Sales, Marketing, Events, and Publications, and other SORs. SOR 500.000 reflects not only IT access records, but also building access and related records. This results in a mixture of uses within SOR 500.000, which reduces optimization and can result in confusion. The creation of a new SOR to encompass commercial IT resources, therefore, provides a platform which is easy to understand and allows for greater flexibility in use and maintenance. Since the new SOR will house only IT resources, the public can more easily understand what information is collected and how it is used. Further, documenting IT records within one SOR provides for greater flexibility in adding new resources as well as maintaining existing resources. For example, one application may already collect and store, for the same purpose, data elements that a new application will use. With a record already documented, the implementation process of the new technology will be streamlined while also meeting statutory and regulatory mandates. PO 00000 Frm 00064 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Description of New or Modified System of Records This new System of Records is being developed to support the implementation of various commercial IT resources and to provide support for future implementations. This system specifically will cover categories of records referred to collectively as ‘‘Administrative.’’ Categories of Records in this system reference data elements created from a user or application’s interactions with other applications. Applications covered in this SOR reference or incorporate data elements otherwise documented in USPS 550.000 Commercial Information Technology Resources- Infrastructure; therefore, they will not be specifically documented here unless this system references a transformative use of that element. This System of Records may overlap with elements appearing in other Systems of Records, as indicated in the Rationale for Changes to USPS System of Records section. This new System of Records will encompass commercially developed or commercially assisted IT resources. Applications developed inhouse or by the Postal Service, such as Informed Delivery®, will still be represented in their own SOR. SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER: 550.200 Commercial Information Technology Resources—Administrative. SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: None. SYSTEM LOCATION: All USPS facilities and contractor sites. SYSTEM MANAGER(S) AND ADDRESS: Chief Information Officer and Executive Vice President, United States Postal Service, 475 L’Enfant Plaza SW, Washington, DC 20260. AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM: 39 U.S.C. 401, 403, and 404. PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM: 1. To provide active and passive monitoring and review of information system applications and user activities. 2. To generate logs and reports of information system application and user activities. 3. To provide a means of auditing commercial information system activities across applications and users. CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM: 1. Individuals with authorized access to USPS computers, information E:\FR\FM\10MYN1.SGM 10MYN1
