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, 
``Voluntary Reporting of Performance Indicators.'' 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 August 8, 2017, 82 FR 37132.
    1. The title of the information collection: ``Voluntary Reporting 
of Performance Indicators.''
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0195.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: N/A.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: Quarterly.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Power reactor 
licensees.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 376.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 94.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: The 
total reporting and recordkeeping burden is 76,350 hours (75,200 hours 
of reporting and 1,150 hours of recordkeeping).
    10. Abstract: As part of a joint industry-NRC initiative, the NRC 
receives information submitted voluntarily by power reactor licensees 
regarding selected performance attributes known as performance 
indicators (PIs). Performance indicators are objective measures of the 
performance of licensee systems or programs. The NRC uses PI 
information and inspection results in its Reactor Oversight Process to 
make decisions about plant performance and regulatory response. 
Licensees transmit PIs electronically to reduce burden on themselves 
and the NRC.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 20th day of November 2017.
    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
