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: Cooperation with States at 

Commercial Nuclear Power Plants and 

Other Nuclear Production and 

Utilization Facilities, Policy Statement. 

2. OMB approval number: 3150–0163. 

3. Type of submission: Extension. 

4. The form number, if applicable: 

Not applicable. 

5. How often the collection is required 

or requested: On occasion, when a State 

or Federally recognized Indian Tribe 

wishes to observe NRC inspections or 

perform inspections for the NRC or 

when a State or Federally recognized 

Indian Tribe wishes to negotiate an 

agreement to observe or perform 

inspections. States with an instrument 

of cooperation or a State Resident

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 79 / Monday, April 25, 2022 / Notices 24349 

Engineer have both regular reporting 

and occasion-specific reporting. 

6. Who will be required or asked to 

respond: States and Federally 

recognized Tribes interested in 

observing or performing inspections. 

7. The estimated number of annual 

responses: 207. 

8. The estimated number of annual 

respondents: 33. 

9. The estimated number of hours 

needed annually to comply with the 

information collection requirement or 

request: 1,291. 

10. Abstract: States and Federally 

recognized Indian Tribes are involved 

and interested in monitoring the safety 

status of nuclear power plants and other 

nuclear production and utilization 

facilities. This involvement is, in part, 

in response to the States’ and Tribes’ 

public health and safety responsibilities 

and, in part, in response to their 

citizens’ desire to become more 

knowledgeable about the safety of 

nuclear power plants and other nuclear 

production and utilization facilities. 

States and Tribes have identified NRC 

inspections as one possible source of 

knowledge for their personnel regarding 

NRC licensee activities, and the NRC, 

through the policy statement, 

‘‘Cooperation With States at Commercial 

Nuclear Power Plants and Other Nuclear 

Production or Utilization Facilities’’ (57 

FR 6462; February 25, 1992), has been 

amenable to accommodating States’ and 

Tribes’ needs in this regard. The NRC 

uses the information collected under 

this information collection requirement 

to allow States and Federally recognized 

Indian Tribes to participate in or 

observe inspections at NRC-licensed 

facilities. The types of information 

collected include written requests 

identifying specific inspections States 

and Tribes wish to observe; 

identification-related information 

required for site access to NRC-licensed 

facilities; training and qualifications of 

State and Tribal personnel participating 

in inspections; information required to 

define inspection roles for States and 

Tribes; and information to coordinate 

NRC and State and Tribal inspections. 

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?

AGENCY: Pension Benefit Guaranty 

Corporation. 

ACTION: Notice of request for extension 

of OMB approval of information

SUMMARY: The Pension Benefit Guaranty 

Corporation (PBGC) is requesting that 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) extend approval, without

Act (PRA), of a collection of information 

for its employees to request a medical 

exception to the COVID–19 vaccination 

requirement. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted by 

May 25, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under 

Executive Order 14043, every Federal 

agency must ‘‘implement, to the extent 

consistent with applicable law, a 

program to require COVID–19 

vaccination for all of its Federal 

employees, with exceptions only as 

required by law.’’ In following this 

directive, the Pension Benefit Guaranty 

Corporation (PBGC) imposed a 

requirement that its employees must 

receive and submit proof of a COVID– 

19 vaccination. As required by 29 U.S.C. 

701 et seq. and 29 CFR part 1630, PBGC 

allows an exception from the 

vaccination requirement for employees 

who demonstrate medical reasons or 

disabilities that would make the 

COVID–19 vaccine unsafe for them. To 

obtain this exception, employees must 

complete the Request for Medical 

Exception to COVID–19 Vaccination 

Requirement form. PBGC uses the 

information on this form to verify 

employees’ assertions that they are 

entitled to an exception to the COVID– 

19 vaccination requirement because of 

their medical or disability statuses. 

The medical exception request 

collection of information has been 

approved by OMB under control 

number 1212–0075 (expires May 31, 

2022). On February 14, 2022, PBGC 

published in the Federal Register (at 87 

FR 8303) a notice informing the public 

of its intent to request an extension of 

this collection of information. PBGC 

received one comment, and the 

commenter expressed support for the 

exemption, noting that some employees 

may have disabling conditions. PBGC is 

requesting that OMB extend approval of 

the collection for 3 years. An agency 

may not conduct or sponsor, and a 

person is not required to respond to, a 

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

PBGC estimates that an average of 2 

employees each year will submit 

Request for Medical Exception to 

COVID–19 Vaccination Requirement 

forms. The total estimated annual 

burden of the collection of information 

is 0.5 hours and $0. 

A Notice Regarding Injunctions 

As of the date that PBGC submitted 

this notice to the Federal Register, the 

vaccination requirement issued 

pursuant to E.O. 14043 is currently the 

subject of a nationwide injunction. 

While that injunction remains in place, 

PBGC will not process requests for a 

medical exception from the COVID–19
