Documents Containing Reporting or Recordkeeping Requirements; 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has recently submitted to 
OMB for review the following proposal for collection of information 
under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35).
    1. Type of submission, new, revised, or extension: Revision.
    2. The title of the information collection: Proposed amendments of 
10 CFR 35.75, ``Criteria for the Release of Patients Administered 
Radioactive Material.''
    3. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
    4. How often is the collection required: On occasion; upon release 
of a patient whose dose to another individual is likely to exceed 1 
millisievert (0.1 rem) in a year.
    5. Who will be required or asked to report: Medical licensees 
administering radiopharmaceuticals and permanent implants and releasing 
patients under the provisions of 10 CFR 35.75.
    6. An estimate of the number of respondents: Approximately 1,350 
NRC and Agreement State licensees.
    7. An estimate of the number of hours annually needed to complete 
the requirement or request: 25,833 hours (includes NRC and Agreement 
State licensees).
    8. The average annual burden per respondent: 19.14 hours.
    9. An indication of whether Section 3504(h), Pub. L. 96-511 
applies: Applicable.
    10. Abstract: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing 
to amend the criteria for release of patients administered radioactive 
material under 10 CFR Part 35. The proposed amendment requires the 
licensee to provide the patient with instructions on how to maintain 
doses to other individuals as low as reasonably achievable, and to 
maintain a record of the released patient and the calculated total 
effective dose equivalent to the individual likely to receive the 
highest dose. These requirements are necessary to ensure adequate 
protection of the public health and safety, and that dose limits to 
other individuals are maintained as low as reasonably achievable.
    Copies of the submittal may be inspected or obtained for a fee from 
the NRC Public Document Room, 2120 L Street NW. (lower level), 
Washington, DC.
