Short Statement: • Noncompliance Tracking System (NTS): The ownership of the NTS database has been transferred to a different organization (Office of Enterprise Assessments). This request, therefore, adjusts future data collection needs for NTS to “0” for collection instruments associated with the EHSS Office of ES&H Reporting and Analysis (788-hour decrease). • REMS: Due to the annual variation of activities, allocated budgets, and an effort to ensure safe working conditions, the number of monitored individuals can change from year to year. There was a decrease in approximately 9,000 monitored individuals from the 2019 response (3,450-hour decrease). • Fire Protection: Number of respondents increased by 15 to 45 due to more sites and sub-organizations being identified to respond. Time to submit responses doubled (980 min/response, or 2 days per response) to reflect more accurate data submittals (360-hour increase). • Safety Basis: Due to the pandemic situation and reduced need for updates to safety bases of nuclear facilities, the number of responses decreased, and the burden hours decreased (106-hour decrease). • DOE OPEXShare Lessons Learned System: Over the past year, there has been a doubling in lessons learned submittals. This is a result of strengthening of the Lessons Learned program, modernization of the collection database, and more active users. The system has been well received by DOE and DOE contractors as a venue to share operating experience and improve organizational learning, resulting in improved safety and mission quality (355-hour increase).
