Parts 30 and 32--Exempt Distribution of a Radioactive Drug Containing
One Microcurie of Carbon-14 Urea.
3. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 313.
4. How often the collection is required: On occasion.
5. Who will be required or asked to report: Manufacturers and
distributors of the radioactive drug containing Carbon-14 urea.
6. An estimate of the number of responses: 3.
7. The estimated number of annual respondents: 3.
8. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 54 hours initially; thereafter 48
hours annually--16 hours for each of 3 respondents (48 hours per year
reporting burden and a one-time 6-hour recordkeeping burden, 2 hours

9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d). Pub. L. 104-13
applies: Applicable.
10. Abstract: In response to a petition for rulemaking submitted by
Tri-Med Specialties, Inc., the NRC is proposing to amend its
regulations to allow NRC licensees to distribute a radioactive drug
containing one microcurie of carbon-14 urea to any person for ``in
vivo'' diagnostic use. The adoption of this amendment would make the
drug more widely available, thus reducing costs to patients.
Submit, by July 11, 1997, 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?
A copy of the submittal may be viewed free of charge at the NRC
Public Document Room, 2120 L Street NW, (Lower Level), Washington, DC.

collection'' is or has been published in the Federal Register within
