(OMB) for Review

AGENCY: U. S. 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 or 
continued approval of information collection under the provisions of 
the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted:
    1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Parts 20 
Standards for Protection Against Radiation.
    2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0014.
    3. How often is the collection required: Annually.
    4. Who is required or asked to report: NRC licensees.
    5. The number of respondents: 773.
    6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement 
or request: 209,605.
    7. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 20 establishes standards for protection 
against ionizing radiation resulting from activities conducted under 
licenses issued by the NRC. These standards in part require the 
establishment of radiation protection programs, the maintenance of 
radiation records, the recording of radiation received by workers, the 
reporting of incidents which could cause exposure to radiation and the 
submittal of an annual report to NRC of the results of individual 
monitoring. These mandatory requirements are needed to protect 
occupationally exposed individuals from undue risks of excessive 
exposure to ionizing radiation and to protect the health and safety of 
the public.
    Submit, by December 29, 1995, 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?
