Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Proposed Collection; 

Comment Request 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Emergency 

Preparedness and Response Directorate, 

U.S. Department of Homeland Security. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, as part of its 

continuing effort to reduce paperwork 

and respondent burden, invites the 

general public and other Federal 

agencies to take this opportunity to 

comment on proposed continuing 

information collections. In accordance 

with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), this 

notice seeks comments concerning 

Federal Assistance for Offsite 

Radiological Emergency Planning. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Executive 

Order 12657, dated November 18, 1988, 

charged the Federal Emergency 

Management Agency (FEMA) and other 

Federal agencies with emergency 

planning response in cases where State 

and local governments have declined or 

failed to prepare emergency plans. To 

implement Executive Order 12657, 

FEMA worked with the Nuclear 

Regulatory Commission (NRC) and other 

Federal agencies on the Federal 

Radiological Preparedness Coordinating 

Committee to develop regulation 44 CFR 

352, Commercial Nuclear Power Plants: 

Emergency Preparedness Planning. This 

regulation establishes policies and 

procedures for a licensee submission of 

a certification of ‘‘decline or fail,’’ and 

for FEMA determination concerning 

Federal assistance to the licensee; and 

also establishes policies and procedures 

for providing Federal support for offsite 

planning and preparedness. 

Collection of Information 

Title: Federal Assistance for Offsite 

Radiological Emergency Planning. 

Type of Information Collection: 

Extension of a currently approved 

collection. 

OMB Number: 1660–0024. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Abstract: In accordance with 

Executive Order 12657, FEMA will need 

certain information from the licensee in 

order to form a decision as to whether 

or not a condition of ‘‘decline or fail’’

exists on the part of State or local 

governments (44 CFR 352.3–4). This 

information will be collected by the 

appropriate FEMA Regional Office or 

Headquarters. Also in accordance with 

the Executive Order, when a licensee 

requests Federal facilities or resources, 

FEMA will need information from the 

NRC as to whether the licensee has 

made maximum use of its resources and 

the extent to which the licensee has 

complied with 10 CFR 50.47 (c)(1) and 

44 CFR 352.5. This information will be 

collected by the NRC and will be 

provided to FEMA through consultation 

between the two agencies. 

Affected Public: Business or Other For 

Profit (Nuclear Regulatory Commission 

licensees of commercial nuclear power 

plants).

proposed data collection is necessary for 

the proper performance of the agency,

accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used;

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) minimize the burden 

of the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including through 

the use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology,
