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 current valid OMB control number.
1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 32--
Specific Domestic Licenses to Manufacture or Transfer Certain Items
Containing Byproduct Material.
3. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 653, 653A,and 653B,
``Transfers of Industrial Devices Report.''
4. How often the collection is required: There is a one-time
submittal of information to receive a license. Renewal applications are
submitted every 10 years. In addition, recordkeeping must be performed
on an on-going basis, and reports of transfer of byproduct material
must be reported every 5 years, and in a few cases, every year.
5. Who will be required or asked to report: All specific licensees
who manufacture or initially transfer items containing byproduct
material for sale or distribution to general licensees or persons
exempt from licensing.
6. An estimate of the number of responses: 4147 (650 responses +
275 recordkeepers for NRC licensees and 2522 responses + 700
recordkeepers for Agreement State licensees).
7. The estimated number of annual respondents: 975 (275 NRC
licensees and 700 Agreement State licensees).
8. An estimate of the number of hours needed annually to complete
the requirement or request: 135,741 (36,623 hours for NRC licensees
[5,225 hours reporting, or an average of 8 hours per response + 31,398
hours recordkeeping, or 114 hours per recordkeeper] and 99,118 hours
for Agreement State licensees [20,863 hours reporting, or an average of
8.3 hours per response + 78,255 hours recordkeeping, or an average of
112 hours per recordkeeper]).
9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Pub. L. 104-13
applies: Not applicable.
10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 32 establishes requirements for specific
licenses for the introduction of byproduct material into products or
materials and transfer of the products or materials to general
licensees or persons exempt from licensing. It also prescribes
requirements governing holders of the specific licenses. Some of the
requirements are for information which must be submitted in an
application for a specific license, records which must be kept, reports
which must be submitted, and information which must be forwarded to
general licensees and persons exempt from licensing. In addition, 10
CFR part 32 prescribes requirements for the issuance of certificates of
registration (concerning radiation safety information about a product)
to manufacturers or initial transferors of sealed sources and devices.
Submission or retention of the information is mandatory for persons
subject to the 10 CFR part 32 requirements. The information is used by
NRC to make licensing and other regulatory determinations concerning
the use of radioactive byproduct material in products and devices.
