khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES

We have uploaded the records
schedules and accompanying appraisal
memoranda to the regulations.gov
docket for this notice as ‘‘other’’
documents. Each records schedule
contains a full description of the records
at the file unit level as well as their
proposed disposition. The appraisal
memorandum for the schedule includes
information about the records.
We will post comments, including
any personal information and
attachments, to the public docket
unchanged. Because comments are
public, you are responsible for ensuring
that you do not include any confidential
or other information that you or a third
party may not wish to be publicly
posted. If you want to submit a
comment with confidential information
or cannot otherwise use the
regulations.gov portal, you may contact
request.schedule@nara.gov for
instructions on submitting your
comment.
We will consider all comments
submitted by the posted deadline and
consult as needed with the Federal
agency seeking the disposition
authority. After considering comments,
we may or may not make changes to the
proposed records schedule. The
schedule is then sent for final approval
by the Archivist of the United States.
After the schedule is approved, we will
post on regulations.gov a ‘‘Consolidated
Reply’’ summarizing the comments,
responding to them, and noting any
changes we made to the proposed
schedule. You may elect at
regulations.gov to receive updates on
the docket, including an alert when we
post the Consolidated Reply, whether or
not you submit a comment. If you have
a question, you can submit it as a
comment, and can also submit any
concerns or comments you would have
to a possible response to the question.
We will address these items in
consolidated replies along with any
other comments submitted on that
schedule.
We will post schedules on our
website in the Records Control Schedule
(RCS) Repository, at https://
www.archives.gov/records-mgmt/rcs,
after the Archivist approves them. The
RCS contains all schedules approved
since 1973.
Background
Each year, Federal agencies create
billions of records. To control this
accumulation, agency records managers
prepare schedules proposing retention
periods for records and submit these
schedules for NARA’s approval. Once
approved by NARA, records schedules
provide mandatory instructions on what

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 262001

happens to records when no longer
needed for current Government
business. The records schedules
authorize agencies to preserve records of
continuing value in the National
Archives or to destroy, after a specified
period, records lacking continuing
administrative, legal, research, or other
value. Some schedules are
comprehensive and cover all the records
of an agency or one of its major
subdivisions. Most schedules, however,
cover records of only one office or
program or a few series of records. Many
of these update previously approved
schedules, and some include records
proposed as permanent.
Agencies may not destroy Federal
records without the approval of the
Archivist of the United States. The
Archivist grants this approval only after
thorough consideration of the records’
administrative use by the agency of
origin, the rights of the Government and
of private people directly affected by the
Government’s activities, and whether or
not the records have historical or other
value. Public review and comment on
these records schedules is part of the
Archivist’s consideration process.

II. Background
Under the provisions of the

OMB for review entitled, ‘‘10 CFR part
81, ‘Standard Specification for the
Granting of Patent Licenses.’’’ 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.
The NRC published a Federal
Register notice with a 60-day comment
period on this information collection on
September 18, 2023, 88 FR 63981.

or requested: Applications for licenses
are submitted once. Other reports are

respond: Applicants for and holders of
NRC licenses to NRC inventions.

inventions to responsible applicants.
Applicants for licenses to NRC
inventions are required to provide
information which may provide the
basis for granting the requested license.
In addition, all license holders must
submit periodic reports on efforts to
bring the invention to a point of
practical application and the extent to
which they are making the benefits of
the invention reasonably accessible to
the public. Exclusive license holders
must submit additional information if
they seek to extend their licenses, issue
sublicenses, or transfer the licenses. In
