-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a submittal to OMB for review of 
continued approval of information collections under the provisions of 
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted:

    1. The title of the information collection: State Agreements 
Program, as authorized by Section 274(b) of the Atomic Energy Act.
    2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0029.
    3. How often the collection is required: One time or as needed.
    4. Who is required or asked to report: Thirty-two Agreement 
States who have signed Section 274(b) Agreements with NRC.
    5. The number of annual respondents: 32.
    6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the 
requirement or request: 1005.
    7. Abstract: Agreement States are asked on a one-time or as-
needed basis, e.g., to respond to a specific incident, to gather 
information on licensing and inspection practices and other 
technical statistical information. The results of such information 
requests, which are authorized under Section 274(b) of the Atomic 
Energy Act, are utilized in part by NRC in preparing responses to 
Congressional inquiries. Agreement State comments are also solicited 
in the areas of proposed procedure and policy development.

    Submit, by February 2, 2001, comments that address the following 
questions:

    1. Is the proposed collection of information necessary for the 
NRC to properly perform its functions? Does the information have 
practical utility?
    2. Is the burden estimate accurate?
    3. Is there a way to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information to be collected?
    4. How can the burden of the information collection be 
minimized, including the use of automated collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology?
