ACTION: Notice and Request for Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) Review
and Comment.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The EIA has submitted an
information collection request to the
OMB under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for a
proposed reinstatement and three-year
approval to the Form GC–859, ‘‘Nuclear
Fuel Data Survey’’ (formerly Form RW–
859) OMB Control Number 1901–0287.
Form RW–859 was previously used to
collect data for reference year 2002 and
was discontinued in 2009. The form
designation has been changed to reflect
the transfer of functions from the DOE
Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste
Management (RW) to the DOE Office of
the General Counsel (GC). The form is
being reinstated to collect data as of
June 30, 2013.
In addition to reinstating the Nuclear
Fuel Data Survey form as Form GC–859
survey, EIA is also proposing to modify
the structure and content of the form
from Form RW–859. Most of the data
reported on Form GC–859 was
previously collected by its predecessor
form and will be provided to
respondents so that they may update
their historical data. Some data
requirements from previous surveys
have been eliminated and replaced by
new data required by various
stakeholders and data users.
DATES: Comments regarding this
proposed information collection must
be received on or before April 5, 2013.
If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, please
advise the DOE Desk Officer at OMB of
your intention to make a submission as
soon as possible. The Desk Officer may
be telephoned at 202–395–4650.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be sent to the
DOE Desk Officer, Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, New

This
information collection request contains
the following:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
(1) OMB No. 1905–0129 1
For the Forms EIA–411, 826, 860,
860M, 861, 861S, 923, and 930, EIA
proposes to protect all contact
information associated with the ‘‘Survey
Contact’’ and the ‘‘Supervisor of Contact
Person for Survey’’ on Schedule 1,
including name, email address,
telephone, and Fax number to the extent
that it satisfies the criteria for exemption
under the Freedom of Information Act
(FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552, the Department of
Energy (DOE) regulations; 10 CFR
1004.11, implementing the FOIA, and
the Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. 1905.
The name and business address of the
survey respondents shown in Schedule
1 will continue to be released as public
information.
For the Forms EIA–63B, 411, 826, 860
and 923, EIA proposes to discontinue
applying disclosure limitation rules that
test aggregate statistics for the risk of
disclosing identifiable information. EIA
intends to add the following paragraph
to the section on data confidentiality:
‘‘Disclosure limitation procedures are
not applied to the statistical data
published from the survey information
reported on this form. There may be
some statistics that are based on data
from fewer than three respondents, or
that are dominated by data from one or
two large respondents. In these cases, it
may be possible for a knowledgeable
person to closely estimate the
information reported by a specific
respondent.’’
1 This form has been under OMB No. 1905–0196.
Due to a reorganization of EIA offices, the
renewables data collection program is now housed
with the electricity data collection program.
Therefore, EIA proposes to change the OMB number
to 1905–0129.
