    4. How often the collection is required:

of reports following specified events, such as the theft or unlawful 
diversion of licensed radioactive material. The source material 
inventory reports required under 10 CFR 150.17(b) must be submitted 
annually by certain licensees.
    5. Who is required or asked to report:

regulations for persons in Agreement States. Part 150 also defines 
activities in Agreement States and in offshore waters over which NRC 
regulatory authority continues, including certain information 
collection requirements. The information is needed to permit NRC to 
make reports to other governments and the International Atomic Energy 
Agency in accordance with international agreements. The information is
