NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Documents Containing Reporting or Recordkeeping Requirements;
Notice of Pending Submittal to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for Review
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to submit an information
collection request to OMB and solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 1606]]
SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a submittal to OMB for review of
continued approval of information collections under the provisions of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted:
1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 32,
Specific Domestic Licenses to Manufacture or Transfer Certain Items
Containing Byproduct Material.
2. Current OMB Approval Number: 3150-0001
3. How often the collection is required: There is a one-time
submittal of information to receive a license. Renewal applications are
submitted every 5 years. In addition, recordkeeping must be performed
on an on-going basis, and reports of transfer of byproduct material
must be reported every 5 years.
4. Who is required or asked to report: All specific licensees who
manufacture or initially transfer items containing byproduct material
for sale or distribution to general licensees or persons exempt from
licensing.
5. The number of annual respondents: 265 NRC licensees and 333
Agreement State licensees.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 53,333 hours or 201.26 hours per NRC licensee and 95,306.9
hours or 286.21 hours per Agreement State licensee. The difference in
individual licensee burden between NRC and Agreement States is due to
the fact that a higher percentage of the Agreement State licensees are
nuclear pharmacies, which have a large recordkeeping burden because of
the labeling requirements for radiopharmaceuticals.
7. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 32 establishes requirements for specific
licenses for the introduction of byproduct material into products or
materials and transfer of the products or materials to general
licensees or persons exempt from licensing. It also prescribes
requirements governing holders of the specific licenses. Some of the
requirements are information which must be submitted in an application
for a specific license, records which must be kept, reports which must
be submitted, and information which must be forwarded to general
licensees and persons exempt from licensing. In addition, 10 CFR Part
32 prescribes requirements for the issuance of certificates of
registration (concerning radiation safety information about a product)
to manufacturers or initial transferors of sealed sources and devices.
Submission or retention of the information is mandatory for persons
subject to the 10 CFR Part 32 requirements. The information is used by
NRC to make licensing and other regulatory determinations concerning
the use of radioactive byproduct material in products and devices.
Submit, by March 22, 1996, 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 burden estimate 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 be minimized,
including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology?
