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 revision 
of an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, 
``Information Collection: Safeguards on Nuclear Material--
Implementation of United States/International Atomic Energy Agency 
Agreement.'' 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 April 6, 2017 (82 FR 16862).
    1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 75, 
``Information Collection: Safeguards on Nuclear Material--
Implementation of United States/International Atomic Energy Agency 
Agreement.''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0055.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: Selected 
licensees are required to provide reports of nuclear material inventory 
and flow for selected facilities under the US/IAEA Safeguards 
Agreement, permit inspections by International Atomic Energy Agency 
Agreement (IAEA) inspectors, complementary access of IAEA inspectors 
under the Additional Protocol, give immediate notice to the NRC in 
specified situations involving the possibility of loss of nuclear 
material, and give notice for imports and exports of specified amounts 
of nuclear material. Reporting is done when specified events occur. 
Recordkeeping for nuclear material accounting and control information 
is done in accordance with specific instructions.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Licensees of 
facilities on the US eligible list who have been selected by the IAEA 
for reporting or recordkeeping activities.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 32 (2 reporting 
responses + 30 recordkeepers).
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 30.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 4,227.1 
hours (0.4 reporting hours + 4226.7 hours recordkeeping).
    10. Abstract: Part 75 of title 10 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations (10 CFR), requires selected licensees to provide reports of 
nuclear material inventory and flow for selected facilities under the 
US/IAEA Safeguards Agreement, permit inspections by IAEA inspectors, 
complementary access of IAEA inspectors under the Additional Protocol, 
give immediate notice to the NRC in specified situations involving the 
possibility of loss of nuclear material, and give notice for imports 
and exports of specified amounts of

nuclear material. This collection is being updated to include 
approximately 25 entities subject to the U.S.-IAEA Caribbean 
Territories Safeguards Agreement (INFCIRC/366). These licensees will 
also follow written material accounting and control procedures, 
although actual reporting of transfer and material balance records to 
the IAEA will be done through the U.S. State system (Nuclear Materials 
Management and Safeguards System, collected under OMB clearance numbers 
3150-0003, 3150-0004, 3150-0057, and 3150-0058.) The NRC needs this 
information to implement its international obligations under the U.S.-
IAEA Caribbean Territories Safeguards Agreement (INFCIRC/366).

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 6th of November, 2017.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
