Abstract: Final Rule entitled: 10 CFR Parts 50 and 52, "Enhancements to Emergency Preparedness Regulations." The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulations in 10 CFR 50.34, 50.47, 50.54, and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E prescribe requirements for emergency preparedness plans and coordination in protecting nuclear power reactors, non power reactors, and the surrounding community against consequences resulting from accidents and sabotage. The proposed rule contains reporting and recordkeeping requirements, including those for third parties, which are necessary to help ensure that an adequate level of emergency preparedness is attained by nuclear power reactor licensees, non power reactors, and the surrounding community. This revision addresses changes in information collections contained in the proposed rule, “Enhancements to Emergency Preparedness Regulations.” Specifically, the draft proposed rule results in changes to information collection requirements in § 50.47, § 50.54, and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E.

Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Increase Due to: Changing Regulations

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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The estimated incremental recordkeeping and reporting burden of the proposed rule is 177,242 hours (82,576 hours recordkeeping from Tables 1 and 2, plus 2,236 hours reporting from Tables 3 and 4, plus 92,430 hours third-party from Table 5). This estimate includes the one-time and annual requirements of the proposed rule. Of this, 72,769 hours are for one-time reporting and recordkeeping requirements (Tables 1 and 3). Therefore, the proposed burden increase will be reduced by approximately 41 percent once the one-time requirements have been completed. The proposed rule changes numerous information collection requirements in §50.47, §50.54, and 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix E. The factors that account for the increased burden include the following: The proposed rule requires licensees to (1) update ETEs on a periodic basis; (2) submit exercise scenarios to NRC for review and approval; (3) submit for NRC review and approval in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90 changes in emergency plans that would reduce the effectiveness of the plans; (4) coordinate with state, local, and federal agencies regarding emergency response resources; and (5) develop procedures addressing protective measures for onsite personnel. The proposed rule contains these new provisions that include reporting and recordkeeping burdens that were not part of previous estimates.
