Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review; Comment Request
AGENCY: U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection and
solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC has recently submitted to OMB for review the following
proposal for the collection of information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). The NRC hereby
informs potential respondents that an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and that a person is not required to respond to, a collection
of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 40,
Domestic Licensing of Source Material; and NRC Form 484, Detection
Monitoring Data Report.
3. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 484.
4. How often the collection is required: On occasion. Reports
required under 10 CFR Part 40 are collected and evaluated on a
continuing basis as events occur. There is a one-time submittal of
information to receive a license. Renewal applications need to be
submitted every 5 to 10 years. Information in previous applications may
be referenced without being resubmitted. In addition, recordkeeping
must be performed on an on-going basis. NRC Form 484 is submitted
biannually to report ground-water data necessary to implement EPA
ground-water standards.
5. Who will be required or asked to report: 10 CFR Part 40:
Applicants for and holders of NRC licenses authorizing the receipt,
possession, use, or transfer of radioactive source and byproduct
material.
NRC Form 484: Uranium recovery facility licensees reporting ground-
water monitoring data pursuant to 10 CFR 40.64.
6. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 894 (273 NRC
Licensees [68 NRC responses + 205 NRC Recordkeepers] + 621 Agreement
State Licensees [349 Agreement State responses + 272 Agreement State
recordkeepers]).
7. The estimated number of annual respondents: 340 licensees (68
for NRC
[[Page 38180]]
licensees and 272 for Agreement State licensees).
8. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 65,418 total hours [20,769 for NRC
Licensees (16,067 hours for reporting and 4,702 hours for
recordkeeping) and 44,649 for Agreement State Licensees (26,923 hours
for reporting and 17,726 hours for recordkeeping)].
9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Pub. L. 104-13
applies: Not applicable.
10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 40 establishes requirements for licenses
for the receipt, possession, use and transfer of radioactive source and
byproduct material. NRC Form 484 is used to report certain groundwater
monitoring data required by 10 CFR Part 40 for uranium recovery
licensees. The application, reporting and recordkeeping requirements
are necessary to permit the NRC to make a determination on whether the
possession, use, and transfer of source and byproduct material is in
conformance with the Commission's regulations for protection of public
health and safety.
