Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 136 / Monday, July 16, 2018 / Notices 32915 

p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. 

Upon receipt of a transmission, the EFiling system time-stamps the document 

and sends the submitter an email notice 

confirming receipt of the document. The 

E-Filing system also distributes an email 

notice 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 so that they can 

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 http://

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 a.m. and 6 p.m., Eastern 

Time, Monday through Friday, 

excluding government holidays. 

Participants who believe that they 

have a 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 by: (1) First class 

mail addressed to the Office of the 

Secretary of the Commission, U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 

Washington, DC 20555–0001, Attention: 

Rulemaking and Adjudications Staff; or 

(2) courier, express mail, or expedited 

delivery service to the Office of the 

Secretary, 11555 Rockville Pike, 

Rockville, Maryland 20852, Attention: 

Rulemaking and Adjudications Staff. 

Participants filing adjudicatory 

documents in this manner are 

responsible for serving the document on 

all other participants. Filing is 

considered complete by first-class mail 

as of the time of deposit in the mail, or 

by courier, express mail, or expedited 

delivery service upon depositing the 

document with the provider of the 

service. A presiding officer, having 

granted an exemption request from 

using E-Filing, may require a participant 

or party to use E-Filing if the presiding 

officer subsequently determines that the 

reason for granting the exemption from 

use of E-Filing no longer exists. 

Documents submitted in adjudicatory 

proceedings will appear in the NRC’s 

electronic hearing docket which is 

available to the public at https://

adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless excluded 

pursuant to an order of the Commission 

or the presiding officer. If you do not 

have an NRC-issued digital ID certificate 

as described above, 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. For example, in some 

instances, individuals provide home 

addresses in order to demonstrate 

proximity to a facility or site. 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 are requested not to include 

copyrighted materials in their 

submission.

action, see the application for license 

amendment dated July 8, 2018 (ADAMS 

Accession No. ML18189A001).

II. Background 

Under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently 

submitted a request for renewal of an 

existing collection of information to 

OMB for review entitled, ‘‘10 CFR [Code 

of Federal Regulations] Part 62, Criteria 

and Procedures for Emergency Access to 

Non-Federal and Regional Low-Level 

Waste Disposal Facilities.’’ The NRC 

hereby informs potential respondents 

that an agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and that a person is not 

required to respond to, a collection of 

information unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

The NRC published a Federal 

Register notice with a 60-day comment 

period on this information collection on 

April 24, 2018 (83 FR 18353). 

1. The title of the information 

collection: 10 CFR part 62, ‘‘Criteria and 

Procedures for Emergency Access to 

Non-Federal and Regional Low-Level 

Waste Disposal Facilities.’’ 

2. OMB approval number: 3150–0143. 

3. Type of submission: Revision. 

4. The form number if applicable: Not 

applicable. 

5. How often the collection is required 

or requested: On occasion. 

6. Who will be required or asked to 

respond: Part 62 of 10 CFR sets out the 

information that must be provided to 

the NRC by any low-level waste 

generator or governor of a State on 

behalf of generators seeking emergency 

access to an operating low-level waste 

disposal facility. The information is 

required to allow the NRC to determine 

if denial of disposal constitutes a 

serious and immediate threat to public 

health and safety or common defense 

and security. Part 62 of 10 CFR also 

provides that the Commission may grant 

an exemption from the requirements in 

this part upon application of an 

interested person or upon its own 

initiative. 

7. The estimated number of annual 

responses: 2. 

8. The estimated number of annual 

respondents: 1. 

9. An estimate of the total number of 

hours needed annually to comply with 

the information collection requirement 

or request: 233. 

10. Abstract: Part 62 of 10 CFR sets 

out the information that must be 

provided to the NRC by any low-level 

waste generator or governor of a State on 

behalf of generators seeking emergency 

access to an operating low-level waste 

disposal facility. The information is 

required to allow the NRC to determine 

if denial of disposal constitutes a 

serious and immediate threat to public 

health and safety or common defense 

and security. Part 62 of 10 CFR also 

provides that the Commission may grant 

an exemption from the requirements in 

this part upon application of an
