NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the 
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 currently valid OMB control number.
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 34--
Licenses for Radiography and Radiation Safety Requirements for 
Radiographic Operations.
    3. The form number if applicable: N/A.
    4. How often the collection is required: Applications for new 
licenses and amendments may be submitted at any time. Applications for 
renewal are submitted every 10 years. Reports are submitted as events 
occur.
    5. Who will be required or asked to report: Applicants for and 
holders of specific licenses authorizing the use of licensed 
radioactive material for radiography.
    6. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 778 (NRC 
licensees 60 plus 113 recordkeepers and Agreement State licensees 198 
plus 407 recordkeepers).
    7. The estimated number of annual respondents: 253 (55 NRC 
Licensees and 198 Agreement State Licensees).
    8. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: The number of hours needed 
annually to complete the requirement or request: 199,125 hours. The NRC 
licensees total burden is 43,397 hours (72 reporting hrs [an average of 
1.2 hours per response] plus 43,325 recordkeeping hrs [an average of 
383 hours per recordkeeper]). The Agreement State licensees total 
burden is 155,728 hours (269 reporting hrs [an average of 1.4 hour per 
response] plus 155,459 recordkeeping hrs [an average of 382 hours per 
recordkeeper]).
    9. An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Pub. L. 104-13 
applies: N/A.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 34 establishes radiation safety 
requirements for the use of radioactive material in industrial 
radiography. The information in the applications, reports and records 
is used by the NRC staff to ensure that the health and safety of the 
public is protected and that licensee possession and use of source and 
byproduct material is in compliance with license and regulatory 
requirements.
