II. Background
Under the provisions of the

U.S.C. chapter 35), the NRC recently
submitted a request for renewal of an
existing collection of information to
OMB for review entitled, ‘‘10 CFR part
61, Licensing Requirements for Land
Disposal of Radioactive Waste.’’ 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 5, 2024, 89 FR 15904.
1. The title of the information
collection: 10 CFR part 61, Licensing
Requirements for Land Disposal of
Radioactive Waste.
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0135.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable:
Not Applicable.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: Applications for licenses
are submitted as needed. Other reports
are submitted annually, and as other
events require.
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: Applicants for and holders of
an NRC license or Agreement State
license for land disposal of low-level
radioactive waste.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 16 (12 reporting responses
and 4 recordkeepers).
8. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 4.

9. The estimated number of hours
needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or

and 5,316 hours recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 61,
establishes the procedures, criteria, and
license terms and conditions for the
land disposal of low-level radioactive
waste. The reporting and recordkeeping
requirements are mandatory and, in the
case of application submittals, are
required to obtain a benefit. The
information collected in the
applications, reports, and records is
evaluated by the NRC to ensure that the
licensee’s or applicant’s disposal
facility, equipment, organization,
training, experience, procedures, and
plans provide an adequate level of
protection of public health and safety,
common defense and security, and the
environment.

10. Abstract: The information
collection activity will garner
qualitative customer and stakeholder
feedback in an efficient, timely manner,
for the purpose of improving service
delivery. By qualitative feedback we
mean information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions,
but are not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
This feedback will provide insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences and expectations, provide
an early warning of issues with service,
or focus attention on areas where
communication, training or changes in
operations might improve delivery of
products or services. These collections
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between the
Agency and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance will provide useful
information, but it will not yield data
that can be generalized to the overall
population. This type of generic
clearance for qualitative information
will not be used for quantitative
information collections that are
designed to yield reliably actionable
results, such as monitoring trends over
time or documenting program
performance. Such data uses require
more rigorous designs that address: The
target population to which
generalizations will be made, the
sampling frame, the sample design
(including stratification and clustering),
the precision requirements or power
calculations that justify the proposed
sample size, the expected response rate,
methods for assessing potential
nonresponse bias, the protocols for data
collection, and any testing procedures
that were or will be undertaken prior to
fielding the study. Depending on the
degree of influence the results are likely
to have, such collections may still be
eligible for submission for other generic
mechanisms that are designed to yield
quantitative results.
