Abstract: The NRC provides reimbursement for people on invitational travel for the NRC. As such, the NRC would reimburse them through our Financial Accounting and Integrated Management Information System (FAIMIS). Additionally, the travel itself would be processed in our electronic travel systems (ETS2). Both the financial and travel systems must be set up appropriately for the invitational traveler to travel and receive reimbursement from the NRC. The information collected on Form 149 meets the requirements for the invitational traveler to have a profile created in FAIMIS and in ETS2. The information collected is necessary to meet the criteria for both systems.

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Due to an increase in number of staff being hired by the NRC annually, the estimated number of invitational travelers has increased from 250 to 435 per year. The increase in invitational travelers results in the estimated annual burden going from 83.3 hours/year to 108.75 hours/year with a corresponding increase in the cost of $9,500. The increase in annual burden due to the increased number of travelers is partially offset by a decrease in the burden per response. The burden per response has decreased from 20 minutes to 15 minutes due to a reevaluation of the time needed to complete the form. Additionally, the hourly rate as gone from $278/hr to $300/hr
