Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The burden increased by 2,154 hours from 106,906 hours to 109,060 hours. The majority of this change can be attributed to an inclusion of the burdens associated with reporting for materials licensees that voluntarily report to REIRS. The increase in reporting hours by materials licensees was mitigated by a decrease in the number of operating reactors and fewer monitored workers being annually reported. Additionally, there is a trend for materials licensees to be regulated under Agreement State agreements. When doing so, the licensee may choose to report to REIRS, but are not required to do so under NRC regulations. Based on experience and industry knowledge, the NRC anticipates that the number of monitored individuals during the upcoming clearance period will be similar to the data from 2021 used in these estimates. Additionally, the hourly fee rate increased from $278/hr to $290/hr.
