NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Documents Containing Reporting or Recordkeeping Requirements;
Notice of Pending Submittal to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for Review
AGENCY: U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to submit an information
collection request to OMB and solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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 31,
``General Domestic Licenses for Byproduct Material''.
2. Current OMB Approval Number: 3150-0016.
3. How often the collection is required: Reports are submitted as
events occur. Registration certificates may be submitted at any time.
Changes to the information on the registration certificate are
submitted as they occur.
4. Who is required or asked to report: Persons desiring to own
byproduct material and persons desiring to possess and use byproduct
material in certain items.
5. The number of annual respondents: 170 NRC licensees and 340
Agreement State licensees.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 2,634 hours for NRC licensees and 5,265 hours for Agreement
State licensees.
7. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 31 establishes general licenses for the
possession and use of byproduct material in certain items and a general
license for ownership of byproduct material. General licensees are
required to keep records and submit reports identified in Part 31 in
order for NRC to determine with reasonable assurance that devices are
operated safely and without radiological hazard to users or the public.
The revision reflects an overall increase in burden. There has been a
decrease in burden for NRC licensees, due to a smaller number of
general
[[Page 4686]]
licensees and fewer reports being filed by general licensees. However,
the burden for Agreement State licensees was not included in the
previous burden.
Submit, by April 8, 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?
