SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

National Science Foundation (NSF), as 

directed by the Antarctic Conservation 

Act of 1978 (Public Law 95–541, 45 CFR 

670), as amended by the Antarctic 

Science, Tourism and Conservation Act 

of 1996, has developed regulations for 

the establishment of a permit system for 

various activities in Antarctica and 

designation of certain animals and 

certain geographic areas a requiring 

special protection. 

NSF issued a permit (ACA 2017–020) 

to Leidos Innovations Group on October 

30, 2016. The issued permit allows the 

permit holder to import and use 

commercially available, bacteria 

supplement for municipal Wastewater 

Treatment Plants, to be used in the 

wastewater treatment plant at McMurdo 

Station, Antarctica. The permit includes 

mitigation measures to prevent release 

of bacteria into the Antarctic 

Environment, including sterilization of 

all effluent prior to discharge. 

Now the permit holder proposes a 

permit modification to extend the 

expiration date of the permit until 

January 31, 2023. The Environmental 

Officer has reviewed the modification 

request and has determined that the 

amendment is not a material change to 

the permit, and it will have a less than 

a minor or transitory impact.

Program Specialist, Office of Polar Programs.

The NRC published a Federal 

Register notice with a 60-day comment 

period on this information collection on 

April 26, 2021, 86 FR 22077. 

1. The title of the information

or requested: One-time, on occasion.

8. The estimated number of annual 

respondents: 52. 

9. The estimated number of hours 

needed annually to comply with the 

information collection requirement or 

request: 15,720. 

10. Abstract: The NRC is requesting 

OMB approval of a plan for a generic 

collection of information. The need and 

practicality of the collection can be 

evaluated, but the details of the specific 

individual collections will not be 

known until a later time. The 

Agreement States and non-Agreement 

States will be asked on a one-time or as 

needed basis to respond to a specific 

incident, to gather information on 

licensing and inspection practices or 

other technical information, or to 

provide comments on proposed policy 

and program updates. The results of 

such information requests, which are 

authorized under Section 274(b) of the 

Atomic Energy Act, will be utilized in 

part by the NRC in preparing responses 

to Congressional inquiries. In addition, 

the information can assist the 

Commission in its considerations and 

decisions involving Atomic Energy Act 

materials programs in an effort to make 

the national nuclear materials program 

more uniform and consistent.
