NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
AGENCY: 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 35,
``Medical Use of Byproduct Material.''
2. Current OMB Approval Number 3150-0010.
3. How often the collection is required: Required reports are
collected and evaluated on a continuing basis as needed due to a change
in programs or as events occur.
4. Who is required or asked to report: Physicians and medical
institutions who are applicants for, or holders of, an NRC license
authorizing the administration of byproduct material or its radiation
to humans for medical use.
5. The number of annual respondents: 1,982 NRC licensees and 4,955
Agreement State licensees.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 376,407 hours for NRC licensees and 942,820 hours for
Agreement State licensees.
7. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 35, ``Medical Use of Byproduct Material,''
contains requirements that apply to NRC licensees who are authorized to
administer byproduct material or its radiation to humans for medical
use. The information in the required reports and records is used by the
NRC to ensure that the health and safety of the public is protected,
and that the licensee possession and use of byproduct material is in
compliance with license and regulatory requirements. The revision is a
net increase adjustment in burden resulting from an increase in the
number of affected licensees, a reevaluation of the time required to
perform individual activities and the number of times those activities
are performed, and an addition of burden associated with three
sections, two of which are a result of rulemaking, and one which was
inadvertently omitted during the last evaluation of burden.
