SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Quarterly Census of Employment and 

Wages (QCEW) program is a federal/ 

state cooperative effort which compiles 

monthly employment data, quarterly 

wages data, and business identification 

information from employers subject to 

state Unemployment Insurance (UI) 

laws. These data are collected from state 

Quarterly Contribution Reports (QCRs) 

submitted to State Workforce Agencies 

(SWAs). The states send micro-level 

employment and wages data, 

supplemented with the names, 

addresses, and business identification 

information of these employers, to the 

BLS. The state data are used to create 

the BLS sampling frame, known as the 

longitudinal QCEW data. To ensure the 

continued accuracy of these data, the 

information supplied by employers 

must be periodically verified and 

updated. For this purpose, the Annual 

Refiling Survey (ARS) is used in 

conjunction with the UI tax reporting 

system in each state. The information 

collected by the ARS is used to review 

the existing industry code assigned to 

each establishment as well as the 

physical location of the business 

establishment. As a result, changes in 

the industrial and geographical 

compositions of our economy are 

captured in a timely manner and 

reflected in the BLS statistical programs. 

The ARS also asks employers to identify 

new locations in the state. If these 

employers meet QCEW program 

reporting criteria, then a Multiple 

Worksite Report (MWR) is sent to the 

employer requesting employment and 

wages for each worksite each quarter. 

Thus, the ARS is also used to identify 

new potential MWR-eligible employers. 

Office of Management and Budget 

clearance is being sought for a revision 

to the ARS. Once every three years, the 

SWAs survey employers that are 

covered by the state’s UI laws to ensure 

that state records correctly reflect the 

business activities and locations of 

those employers. States survey 

approximately one-third of their 

businesses each year and largely take 

care of the entire universe of covered 

businesses over a three-year cycle. The 

selection criterion for surveying 

establishments is based on the ninedigit Federal Employer Identification 

Number of the respondent. BLS 

constantly pursues a growing number of 

automated reporting options to reduce 

employer burden and costs and to take 

advantage of more efficient methods and 

procedures. Even given such actions, 

mailing remains an important part of the 

survey. The BLS developed a one-page 

letter rather than mailing forms for ARS 

solicitation. This letter explains the 

purpose of the ARS and provides 

respondents with a unique Web ID and 

password. Respondents are directed to 

the BLS online web collection system to 

verify or to update their geographic and 

industry information. Additionally, BLS 

staff review selected, large multiworksite national employers rather than 

surveying these employers with 

traditional ARS forms. This central 

review reduces postage costs incurred 

by the states in sending letters or forms. 

It also reduces respondent burden, as 

the selected employers do not have to 

return forms either. BLS continues to 

use a private contractor to handle 

various administrative aspects of the 

survey to reduce the costs associated 

with the ARS. This initiative is called 

the Centralized Annual Refiling Survey 

(CARS). Under CARS, BLS effectively 

utilizes the commercial advantages 

related to printing and mailing large 

volumes of survey letters. Finally, BLS 

continues to make use of email 

addresses collected from the ARS and 

from the state Unemployment Insurance 

agencies for solicitation purposes. Use 

of email for solicitation reduces the 

overall cost of data collection. BLS will 

also continue to make use of email 

solicitation of small establishments that 

had been excluded from the ARS for 

budgetary reasons. Since collection 

costs for email solicitation are minimal, 

these respondents can continue to be 

added back to the ARS at little cost to 

the government. For additional 

substantive information about this ICR, 

see the related notice published in the 

Federal Register on August 24, 2020 (85 

FR 52158). 

This information collection is subject 

to the PRA. A Federal agency generally 

cannot conduct or sponsor a collection 

of information, and the public is 

generally not required to respond to an 

information collection, unless the OMB 

approves it and displays a currently 

valid OMB Control Number. In addition, 

notwithstanding any other provisions of 

law, no person shall generally be subject 

to penalty for failing to comply with a 

collection of information that does not 

display a valid OMB Control Number. 

See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. 

DOL seeks PRA authorization for this 

information collection for three (3) 

years. OMB authorization for an ICR 

cannot be for more than three (3) years 

without renewal. The DOL notes that 

information collection requirements 

submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review.

Survey.

Facility Operating Licenses and 

Combined Licenses Involving 

Proposed No Significant Hazards 

Considerations and Containing 

Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards 

Information and Order Imposing 

Procedures for Access to Sensitive 

Unclassified Non-Safeguards 

Information 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: License amendment request; 

notice of opportunity to comment, 

request a hearing, and petition for leave 

to intervene; order imposing 

procedures. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) received and is 

considering approval of three 

amendment requests. The amendment 

requests are for Waterford Steam 

Electric Station, Unit 3; Hope Creek 

Generating Station; and Sequoyah 

Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2. For each 

amendment request, the NRC proposes 

to determine that they involve no 

significant hazards consideration 

(NSHC). Because each amendment 

request contains sensitive unclassified 

non-safeguards information (SUNSI), an 

order imposes procedures to obtain 

access to SUNSI for contention 

preparation. 

DATES: Comments must be filed by 

December 31, 2020. A request for a 

hearing or petition for leave to intervene 

must be filed by February 1, 2021. Any 

potential party as defined in section 2.4 

of title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR) who believes 

access to SUNSI is necessary to respond 

to this notice must request document 

access by December 11, 2020. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

by any of the following methods 

however, the NRC encourages electronic 

comment submission through the 

Federal Rulemaking website:
