The NRC cautions you not to include
identifying or contact information in

want to be publicly disclosed in your
comment submission. All comment
submissions are posted at https://
www.regulations.gov and entered into
ADAMS. Comment submissions are not
routinely edited to remove identifying

should inform those persons not to
include identifying or contact
information that they do not want to be
publicly disclosed in their comment
submission. Your request should state
that comment submissions are not
routinely edited to remove such
information before making the comment
submissions available to the public or
entering the comment into ADAMS.
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, ‘‘Requests to
Federally Recognized Indian Tribes for
Information.’’ 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
March 8, 2023, 88 FR 14399.
1. The title of the information
collection: Requests to Federally
Recognized Indian Tribes for
Information.
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0245.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable:
Not Applicable.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: On occasion.
PO 00000
Frm 00083
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: Federally recognized Indian
Tribes.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 32.
8. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 637.
9. The estimated number of hours
needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or
request: 5,120 (15,360 hours over the
course of the three-year clearance period
(32 responses per request × 20 requests
per year × 8 hours per response × 3 years
= 15,360 hours)).
10. Abstract: NRC actions and NRC
regulated activities may affect Indian
Tribes and their current or ancestral
Tribal lands. On January 9, 2017, the
NRC published a Tribal Policy
Statement (82 FR 2402). In its Tribal
Policy Statement, the NRC indicated
that it recognizes the Federal Trust
Relationship with Indian Tribes and
will uphold its Trust Responsibility to
Indian Tribes. In its policy statement,
the NRC stated that it recognizes and is
committed to a government-togovernment relationship with Indian
Tribes. The NRC also indicated that it
would engage in timely consultations
with Indian Tribes. The NRC is
requesting OMB approval of a plan for
a generic collection of information. The
need and practicality of the collection
can be evaluated, but the details of the
specific individual collections will not
be known until a later time. The
information collected will include
voluntary requests for information that
would allow the NRC to more
effectively involve Indian Tribes in the
NRC’s regulatory activities and to enable
the NRC to plan the NRC’s Tribal
outreach and consultation activities.
Dated: July 20, 2023.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief
Information Officer.

II. Clearing Agency’s Statement of the
Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the

In its filing with the Commission, the
clearing agency included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for
the proposed rule change and discussed
any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of these

places specified in Item IV below. The
clearing agency has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant
aspects of such statements.
(A) Clearing Agency’s Statement of the
Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the
Proposed Rule Change
1. Purpose
The proposed rule change consists of
modifications to the Service Guides and
the OA relating to the Compensation
Claims Process, as described below.
Background
As the holder of immobilized
securities through its nominee, Cede &
Co., DTC provides asset services that
facilitate centralization, simplification,
and automation in the processing of
principal and income payments and
corporate actions.11 In this regard, DTC
receives from agents, on behalf of its
Participants, funds payments
representing scheduled payments of
dividends on equity securities or
interest or principal on debt securities.
These payments may include payments
of principal and, in certain cases,
payments of interest accrued from the
preceding interest payment date. These
payments are credited to the
Participants to whom they are due (as
reflected in DTC’s records). DTC also
receives and allocates funds payments
in connection with redemptions of debt
10 The respective Service Guides and OA are each
a Procedure of DTC. Pursuant to the Rules, the term
‘‘Procedures’’ means the Procedures, service guides,
and regulations of DTC adopted pursuant to Rule
27, as amended from time to time. See Rule 1,
Section 1, supra note 5. They are binding on DTC
and each Participant in the same manner that they
are bound by the Rules. See Rule 27, supra note 5.
11 These services, including distributions,
redemptions, and reorganizations, among others,
are further described in applicable DTC service
guides, available at https://www.dtcc.com/legal/
rules-and-procedures.
