II. Background

    Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44

an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, ``NRC 
Form 850A, ``Request for NRC Contractor Building Access Authorization'' 
NRC Form 850B, ``Request for NRC Contractor Information Technology 
Access Authorization'' NRC Form 850C, ``Request for NRC Contractor 
Security Clearance.'' 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 September 9, 2016 (81 FR 
62546).
    1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 850A, 
``Request for NRC Contractor Building Access,'' NRC Form 850B, 
``Request for NRC Contractor Information Technology Access 
Authorization,'' and NRC Form 850C, ``Request for NRC Contractor 
Security Clearance.''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0218.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 850A, NRC Form 850B, and 
NRC Form 850C.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: NRC contractors, 
subcontractors and other individuals who are not NRC employees.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 500.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 500.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 85.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 10, ``Criteria and Procedures for 
Determining Eligibility for Access to Restricted Data or National 
Security Information or an Employment Clearance,'' establishes 
requirements that individuals requiring an access authorization and/or 
employment clearance must have an investigation of their background. 
NRC Forms 850A, 850B, and 850C will be used by the NRC to obtain 
information on NRC contractors, subcontractors, and other individuals 
who are not NRC employees and require access to NRC buildings, IT 
systems, sensitive information, sensitive unclassified information, or 
classified information.
