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 
Regulatory Issue Summary 2017-08, ``Process for Scheduling and 
Allocating Resources for Fiscal Years 2020 through 2022 for the Review 
of New Licensing Applications for Light-Water Reactors and Non-Light 
Water Reactors.'' 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 November 27, 2017, 82 FR 
56059.
    1. The title of the information collection: Voluntary Reporting of 
Planned New Reactor Applications.
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0228.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: N/A.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: Annually.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Applicants for a 
design certification and/or a license to build a new nuclear power 
plant.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: Five.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: Five.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 60.
    10. Abstract: This voluntary information collection assists the NRC 
in determining resource and budget needs, as well as aligning the 
proper allocation and utilization of resources to support applicant 
submittals, future construction-related activities, and other 
anticipated part 50 and/or part 52 of title 10 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations (10 CFR) licensing and design certification rulemaking 
actions. In addition, information provided to the NRC staff is intended 
to promote early communications between the NRC and the respective 
addressees about potential 10 CFR part 50 and/or part 52 licensing 
actions and related activities, submission dates, and plans for 
construction and inspection activities. The overarching goal of this 
information collection is to assist the NRC staff more effectively and 
efficiently plan, schedule, and implement activities and reviews in a 
timely manner.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, on April 5, 2018.
