SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has recently submitted 
to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review the following 
proposal for the collection of information under the provisions of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    1. Type of Submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 71--
Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Material--Rule to Achieve 
Compatibility with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
    3. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
    4. How often the collection is required: Serial numbers would be 
added to packages once. Identification of codes and standards proposed 
for use in package design would be required once, with the application. 
Previously submitted material would be consolidated and submitted once, 
with the application. Written instructions would be provided to a 
carrier once for each exclusive use shipment.
    5. Who will be required or asked to report: All NRC specific 
licensees who place byproduct, source, or special nuclear material into 
transportation, and all persons who wish to apply for NRC approval of 
package designs for use in such transportation.
    6. An estimate of the number of responses annually: 360.
    7. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: The revision will require 6.97 
hours per response, plus 6.50 hours per recordkeeper, for a total 
increase of 2,585 hours annually.
    8. An indication of whether Section 3504(h), Pub. L. 96-511 
applies: Applicable.
    9. Abstract: The NRC is amending its regulations for the safe 
transportation of radioactive material to make them compatible with 
those of the IAEA, and to incorporate new licensing requirements for 
packages used to transport plutonium by air. The revision to 10 CFR 
Part 71 would add four additional information collection requirements 
as follows: serial numbers on Type B packages; consolidation of 
previously submitted material in renewal applications; written 
instructions to carriers for exclusive use shipments; and maintenance 
of records of shipments by serial number of the package.
    Copies of the submittal may be inspected or obtained for a fee from 
the NRC Public Document Room, 2120 L Street, N.W. (Lower Level),
