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: ``NRC 
Forms 542 and 542A, `Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest Index 
and Regional Compact Tabulation, and Continuation Page.' '' 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 June 22, 2016 (81 FR 40725).
    1. The title of the information collection: ``NRC Forms 542 and 
542A, `Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest, Index and Regional 
Compact Tabulation, and Continuation Page.' ''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0165.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number, if applicable: NRC Forms 542 and 542A.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: Forms are 
used by shippers whenever radioactive waste is shipped. Quarterly or 
less frequent reporting is made to Agreement States depending on 
specific license conditions. No reporting is made to the NRC.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: All NRC or Agreement 
State low-level waste facilities licensed pursuant to part 61 of title 
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) or equivalent Agreement 
State regulations. All generators, collectors, and processors of low-
level waste intended for disposal at a low-level waste facility must 
complete the appropriate forms.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 756.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 22.
    9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the 
information collection requirement or request: 567.
    10. Abstract: NRC Forms 542 and 542A, provide a set of standardized 
forms to meet Department of Transportation (DOT), NRC, and State 
requirements. The forms were developed by NRC at the request of low-
level waste industry groups. The forms provide uniformity and 
efficiency in the collection of information contained in manifests 
which are required to control transfers of low-level radioactive waste 
intended for disposal at a land disposal facility. The NRC Form 542, 
completed by waste collectors or processors, contains information which 
facilitates tracking the identity of the waste generator. That tracking 
becomes more complicated when the waste forms, dimensions, or packaging 
are changed by the waste processor. Each container of waste shipped 
from a waste processor may contain waste from several different 
generators. The information provided on the NRC Form 542 permits the 
States and Compacts to know the original generators of low-level waste, 
as authorized by the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act 
of 1985, so they can ensure that waste is disposed of in the 
appropriate Compact.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 2nd day of November, 2016.
