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

of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 35 Medical 
Use of Byproduct Material.
    3. The form number if applicable: N/A.
    4. How often the collection is required: Reports of medical events, 
doses to an embryo/fetus or nursing child, or leaking sources are 
reportable on occurrence. A certifying entity desiring to be recognized 
by the NRC must submit a one-time request for recognition.
    5. Who will be required or asked to report: Physicians and medical 
institutions holding an NRC license authorizing the administration of 
byproduct material or radiation therefrom to humans for medical use.
    6. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 259,332 (53,346 
responses from NRC Licenses + 1,862 recordkeepers and 197,235 responses 
from Agreement States + 6,889 recordkeepers) .
    7. An estimate of the number of annual respondents: 8,751 (1,862 
for NRC Licenses and 6,889 for Agreement States).
    8. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: 987,764 hours (251,200 for NRC 
Licenses and 736,564 for Agreement States).
    9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Public Law 104-13 
applies: N/A.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 35, ``Medical Use of Byproduct 
Material,'' contains NRC's requirements and provisions for the medical 
use of byproduct material and for issuance of specific licenses 
authorizing the medical use of this material. These requirements and 
provisions provide for the radiation safety of workers, the general 
public, patients, and human research subjects. 10 CFR Part 35 contains 
mandatory requirements that apply to NRC licensees authorized to 
administer byproduct material or radiation therefrom to humans for 
medical use.
    The information in the required reports and records is used by the 
NRC to ensure that public health and safety is protected, and that the 
possession and use of byproduct material is in compliance with the 
license and regulatory requirements.
