AGENCY: U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), Department of 
Energy.

ACTION: Notice and request for OMB review and comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EIA has submitted an information collection request to the 
OMB for extension under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995. The information collection requests a three-year extension of 
its Uranium Data Program, OMB Control Number 1905-0160. The proposed 
collection will continue the use of Form EIA-851A ``Domestic Uranium 
Production Report (Annual),'' Form EIA-851Q ``Domestic Uranium 
Production Report (Quarterly),'' and the Form EIA-858 ``Uranium 
Marketing Annual Survey.'' EIA proposed no changes to Forms EIA-851A, 
EIA-851Q, and EIA-858.

DATES: Comments regarding this proposed information collection must be 
received on or before August 27, 2015. If you anticipate that you will 
be submitting comments, but find it difficult to do so within the 
period of time allowed by this notice, please advise the DOE Desk 
Officer at OMB of your intention to make a submission as soon as 
possible. The Desk Officer may be telephoned at 202-395-4718.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to the DOE Desk Officer, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and 
Budget, New Executive Office Building, Room 10102, 735 17th Street NW., 
Washington, DC 20503, and to Douglas Bonnar, Operations Research 
Analyst, Fax at 202-586-3045, Email at douglas.bonnar@eia.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information 
should be directed to Douglas Bonnar, douglas.bonnar@eia.gov. The 
information collection instruments and instructions are available on 
the EIAWeb site at http://www.eia.gov/survey/#uranium.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  This information collection request 
contains:
    (1) OMB No.: 1905-0160;
    (2) Information Collection Request Title: Uranium Data Program;
    (3) Type of Request: Three-year extension;
    (4) Purpose: Uranium Data Program is intended to collect high-
quality statistical data on domestic uranium supply and demand 
activities, including production, exploration and development, trade, 
and purchases and sales available to the U.S. The audience for these 
data includes the Congress, other Executive Branch agencies, the 
nuclear and uranium industry, and the public in general. Form EIA-851A 
collects annual data from the U.S. uranium industry on uranium milling 
and processing, uranium feed sources, uranium mining, employment, 
drilling, expenditures, and uranium reserves. The data collected are 
published in EIA's Domestic Uranium Production Report--Annual, http://www.eia.gov/uranium/production/annual/. Form EIA-851Q collects monthly 
data from the U.S. uranium industry on uranium production and sources 
(mines and other) on a quarterly basis. The data collected are 
published in EIA's Domestic Uranium Production Report--Quarterly, 
http://www.eia.gov/uranium/production/quarterly/. Form EIA-858 collects 
annual data from the U.S. uranium market on uranium contracts, 
deliveries, inventories, enrichment services purchased, uranium use in 
fuel assemblies, feed deliveries to enrichers, and unfilled market 
requirements. Uranium deliveries, feed deliveries to enrichers, and 
unfilled market requirements are reported both for the current 
reporting year and for the following ten years. The data collected 
appear in the following EIA publications: Uranium Marketing Annual 
Report, http://www.eia.gov/uranium/marketing/ and Domestic

Uranium Production Report--Annual, http://www.eia.gov/uranium/production/annual/;
    (5) Annual Estimated Number of Respondents: 102;
    (6) Annual Estimated Number of Total Responses: 169;
    (7) Annual Estimated Number of Burden Hours: 1,207;
    (8) Annual Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Cost Burden: EIA 
estimates that there are no additional costs to respondents associated 
with the surveys other than the costs associated with the burden hours. 
The information is maintained in the normal course of business. The 
cost of burden hours to the respondents is estimated to be $86,868 
(1,207 burden hours times $71.97 per hour). Therefore, other than the 
cost of burden hours, EIA estimates that there are no additional costs 
for generating, maintaining and providing the information.

    Statutory Authority: Section 13(b) of the Federal Energy 
Administration Act of 1974, Pub. L. 93-275, codified at 15 U.S.C. 
772(b).
