SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to OMB for review the following 
proposal for the collection of information under the provisions of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). 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.

    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 9, Public 
Records.
    3. The form number if applicable: NRC-509 and NRC-509A.
    4. How often the collection is required: On occasion.
    5. Who will be required or asked to report: Individuals requesting 
access to records under the Freedom of Information or Privacy Acts, or 
to records that are already publicly available in the NRC's Public 
Document Room. Submitters of information containing trade secrets or 
confidential commercial or financial information who have been notified 
that the NRC has made an initial determination that the information 
should be disclosed.
    6. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 7,987.
    7. The estimated number of annual respondents: 7,987.
    8. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: 2,120 (.3 hours per response).
    9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Public Law 104-13 
applies: N/A.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 9 establishes information collection 
requirements for individuals making requests for records under the 
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) or Privacy Act (PA). It also contains 
requests to waive or reduce fees for searching for and reproducing 
records in response to FOIA requests; and requests for expedited 
processing of requests. The information required from the public is 
necessary to identify the records they are requesting; to justify 
requests for waivers or reductions in searching or copying fees; or to 
justify expedited processing. Section 9.28(b) provides that if the 
submitter of information designated to be trade secrets or confidential 
commercial or financial information objects to the disclosure, he must 
provide a written statement within 30 days that specifies all grounds 
why the information is a trade secret or commercial or financial 
information that is privileged or confidential.
