Short Statement: From 2017 to 2019, an average of 1,645 forms was estimated to be filed annually. The previous estimate was 1,720 forms (based on a review of the estimated actual number of forms received from 2015 to 2016), an overall decrease of 75 forms. The number of initial submissions increased from 200 to 223 (an increase of 23 forms, 11.5 hours of burden); the number of changes to the initial forms submitted decreased from 1,520 to 1,422 (a decrease of 98 forms, 24.5 hours of burden). The NRC expects the same pace of submissions to continue during this clearance period. As a result of the increase in the estimated number of initial forms filed annually and the decrease in changes to the initial form, the overall burden estimate has decreased from 480 to 467 hours (a net decrease of 13 hours). In addition, the hourly rate increased from $265/hour to $278/hour.
