Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 70 / Tuesday, April 12, 2022 / Notices 21673 

The NRC cautions you not to include 

identifying or contact information in 

comment submissions that you do not 

want to be publicly disclosed in your 

comment submission. All comment 

submissions are posted at https://

www.regulations.gov and entered into 

ADAMS. Comment submissions are not 

routinely edited to remove identifying 

or contact information. 

If you are requesting or aggregating 

comments from other persons for 

submission to the OMB, then you 

should inform those persons not to 

include identifying or contact 

information that they do not want to be 

publicly disclosed in their comment 

submission. Your request should state 

that comment submissions are not 

routinely edited to remove such 

information before making the comment 

submissions available to the public or 

entering the comment into ADAMS. 

II. Background 

In accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35), the NRC is requesting 

public comment on its intention to 

request the OMB’s approval for the 

information collection summarized 

below. 

1. The title of the information 

collection: Collection of Research Code 

Non-Disclosure Agreement Information. 

2. OMB approval number: 3150–0240. 

3. Type of submission: Extension. 

4. The form number, if applicable: 

Not applicable. 

5. How often the collection is required 

or requested: The collection is required 

every time an NRC developed code is 

requested by users. 

6. Who will be required or asked to 

respond: Users of the code from 

domestic and foreign licensees, 

universities, corporations, and members 

of the public, as well as foreign 

technical support organizations. 

7. The estimated number of annual 

responses: 962. 

8. The estimated number of annual 

respondents: 962. 

9. The estimated number of hours 

needed annually to comply with the 

information collection requirement or 

request: 962. 

10. Abstract: This information 

collection request is a non-disclosure 

agreement (NDA) used for domestic and 

foreign entities to obtain and use the 

NRC’s nuclear safety analytical 

computer codes. NRC develops and uses 

computer codes to independently model 

and evaluate safety issues associated 

with the licensed use of radioactive 

materials. As a global leader in nuclear 

regulatory research and safety 

assessment, NRC is frequently 

approached by domestic and 

international organizations requesting 

copies of NRC computer codes. In 

general, to obtain an NRC code an 

individual or organization first agrees to 

not redistribute the code (i.e., nondisclosure) through an NDA. The NDA 

also imposes terms and conditions for 

code use, and requires notification to 

NRC of code errors, code modifications, 

and updated user information. An 

officially signed and executed NDA of 

users agreeing to the terms and 

conditions is current NRC practice for 

access to NRC-developed computer 

codes. Once the NDA has been signed, 

received, reviewed, and accepted, the 

requesting individual or organization is 

given access to the requested code. The 

information collection enables the NRC 

to ensure that proper procedures and 

agreements are in place to guide the 

distribution and use of these codes 

according to NRC and U.S. Government 

policies and international agreements 

such as import-export restrictions and 

intellectual property rights. Further 

information collection on code errors 

and modifications by code users permits 

NRC to maintain control and quality of 

its codes in a timely and efficient 

manner. 

III. Specific Requests for Comments 

The NRC is seeking 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 estimate of the burden of the 

information collection 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 on respondents 

be minimized, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology?
