NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
10 CFR Part 110
RIN 3150-AH89
Revision of NRC Form 7, Application for NRC Export/Import
License, Amendment, or Renewal
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Direct final rule: Confirmation of effective date.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is confirming the
effective date of June 27, 2006, for the direct final rule that
appeared in the Federal Register of April 13, 2006 (71 FR 19102). This
direct final rule amended the NRC's regulations that govern the export
and import of nuclear material and equipment concerning the use of NRC
Form 7, ``Application for NRC Export/Import License, Amendment, or
Renewal.'' Recently, the Commission revised NRC Form 7 to consolidate
all license requests (i.e., applications for export, import, combined
export/import, amendments and renewals) in one application form.
Previously, NRC Form 7 was used only for applications for export of
nuclear material and equipment. Import license applications, and
production or utilization facility export applications, and license
amendment and renewal applications were filed by letter. As a result of
the revision, these requests, previously made by letter, now will be
made using NRC Form 7. The purpose of this rule change is to amend the
regulations that govern export and import of nuclear material and
equipment to reflect the consolidation of all license requests in one
application, NRC Form 7, as revised. This document confirms the
effective date.
DATES: The effective date of June 27, 2006, is confirmed by this direct
final rule.
ADDRESSES: Documents related to this rulemaking may be examined at the
NRC Public Document Room, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD. These
same documents may also be viewed and downloaded electronically via the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 13, 2006 (71 FR 19102), the NRC
published in the Federal Register a direct final rule amending its
regulations in 10 CFR part 110 concerning the use of NRC Form 7,
``Application for NRC Export/Import License, Amendment, or Renewal.''
Recently, the Commission revised NRC Form 7 to consolidate all license
requests (i.e., applications for export, import, combined export/
import, amendments and renewals) in one application form. Previously,
NRC Form 7 was used only for applications for export of nuclear
material and equipment. Import license applications, and production or
utilization facility export applications, and license amendment and
renewal applications were filed by letter. As a result of the revision,
these requests, previously made by letter, now will be made using NRC
Form 7. The purpose of this rule change is to amend the regulations
that govern export and import of nuclear material and equipment to
reflect the consolidation of all license requests in one application,
NRC Form 7, as revised. In the direct final rule, the NRC stated that
if no significant adverse comments were received, the direct final rule
would become final on the date noted above. The NRC did not receive any
comments. Therefore, this rule is effective as scheduled.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 19th day of June, 2006.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Michael T. Lesar,
Chief, Rules and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative
Services, Office of Administration.
