Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 188 / Friday, September 29, 2023 / Notices 67375 

Hearing.Docket@nrc.gov, or by 

telephone at 301–415–1677, to (1) 

request a digital identification (ID) 

certificate, which allows the participant 

(or its counsel or representative) to 

digitally sign submissions and access 

the E-Filing system for any proceeding 

in which it is participating; and (2) 

advise the Secretary that the participant 

will be submitting a petition or other 

adjudicatory document (even in 

instances in which the participant, or its 

counsel or representative, already holds 

an NRC-issued digital ID certificate). 

Based upon this information, the 

Secretary will establish an electronic 

docket for the proceeding if the 

Secretary has not already established an 

electronic docket. 

Information about applying for a 

digital ID certificate is available on the 

NRC’s public website at https://

www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/ 

getting-started.html. After a digital ID 

certificate is obtained and a docket is 

created, the participant must submit 

adjudicatory documents in Portable 

Document Format. Guidance on 

submissions is available on the NRC’s 

public website at https://www.nrc.gov/ 

site-help/electronic-sub-ref-mat.html. A 

filing is considered complete at the time 

the document is submitted through the 

NRC’s E-Filing system. To be timely, an 

electronic filing must be submitted to 

the E-Filing system no later than 11:59 

p.m. ET on the due date. Upon receipt 

of a transmission, the E-Filing system 

time-stamps the document and sends 

the submitter an email confirming 

receipt of the document. The E-Filing 

system also distributes an email that 

provides access to the document to the 

NRC’s Office of the General Counsel and 

any others who have advised the Office 

of the Secretary that they wish to 

participate in the proceeding, so that the 

filer need not serve the document on 

those participants separately. Therefore, 

applicants and other participants (or 

their counsel or representative) must 

apply for and receive a digital ID 

certificate before adjudicatory 

documents are filed to obtain access to 

the documents via the E-Filing system. 

A person filing electronically using 

the NRC’s adjudicatory E-Filing system 

may seek assistance by contacting the 

NRC’s Electronic Filing Help Desk 

through the ‘‘Contact Us’’ link located 

on the NRC’s public website at https:// 

www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html, by email to 

MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov, or by a tollfree call at 1–866–672–7640. The NRC 

Electronic Filing Help Desk is available 

between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., ET, 

Monday through Friday, except Federal 

holidays. 

Participants who believe that they 

have good cause for not submitting 

documents electronically must file an 

exemption request, in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper 

filing stating why there is good cause for 

not filing electronically and requesting 

authorization to continue to submit 

documents in paper format. Such filings 

must be submitted in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(b)–(d). Participants filing 

adjudicatory documents in this manner 

are responsible for serving their 

documents on all other participants. 

Participants granted an exemption 

under 10 CFR 2.302(g)(2) must still meet 

the electronic formatting requirement in 

10 CFR 2.302(g)(1), unless the 

participant also seeks and is granted an 

exemption from 10 CFR 2.302(g)(1). 

Documents submitted in adjudicatory 

proceedings will appear in the NRC’s 

electronic hearing docket, which is 

publicly available at https://

adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless excluded 

pursuant to an order of the presiding 

officer. If you do not have an NRCissued digital ID certificate as 

previously described, click ‘‘cancel’’ 

when the link requests certificates and 

you will be automatically directed to the 

NRC’s electronic hearing dockets where 

you will be able to access any publicly 

available documents in a particular 

hearing docket. Participants are 

requested not to include personal 

privacy information such as social 

security numbers, home addresses, or 

personal phone numbers in their filings 

unless an NRC regulation or other law 

requires submission of such 

information. With respect to 

copyrighted works, except for limited 

excerpts that serve the purpose of the 

adjudicatory filings and would 

constitute a Fair Use application, 

participants should not include 

copyrighted materials in their 

submission. 

Information about the license renewal 

process can be found under the Reactor 

License Renewal section on the NRC’s 

public website at https://www.nrc.gov/

CPNPP are available for public

potential respondents that an agency 

may not conduct or sponsor, and that a

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control

6. Who will be required or asked to 

respond: (a) All holders of operating 

licenses for nuclear power reactors 

under the provision of part 50 of title 10 

of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 

CFR), ‘‘Domestic Licensing of 

Production and Utilization Facilities,’’ 

except those that have permanently 

ceased operations and have certified 

that fuel has been permanently removed 

from the reactor vessel, (b) all holders 

of, or applicants for, a limited work 

authorization, early site permit, or 

combined licenses issued under 10 CFR 

part 52, ‘‘Licenses, Certifications and 

Approval for Nuclear Power Plants.’’ 

7. The estimated number of annual 

responses: 68. 

8. The estimated number of annual 

respondents: 68. 

9. The estimated number of hours 

needed annually to comply with the 

information collection requirement or 

request: 51. 

10. Abstract: The NRC is requesting 

renewal of its clearance to annually 

request all commercial power reactor 

licensees and applicants for an 

operating license to voluntarily send to 

the NRC: (1) their projected number of 

candidates for initial operator licensing 

examinations; (2) the estimated dates of 

the examinations, and (3) if the 

examinations will be facility developed 

or NRC developed. This information is 

used to plan budgets and resources in 

regard to operator examination
