Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Review; Comment Request

AGENCY: 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. 
The NRC published a Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period on this information collection on August 3, 2010.
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Extension.
    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 39--
Licenses and Radiation Safety Requirements for Well Logging.
    3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0130.
    4. The form number if applicable: N/A.
    5. 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.
    6. Who will be required or asked to report: Applicants for and 
holders of specific licenses authorizing the use of licensed 
radioactive material for well logging.
    7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 2,827 (346 NRC 
Licensees + 2,481 Agreement State Licensees).
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 278 (34 NRC 
Licensees + 244 Agreement State Licensees).
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: 60,296 hours (7,375 total NRC 
licensees hrs + 52,921 total Agreement State licensees hrs). The NRC 
licensees total burden is 7,375 hours (108 reporting hrs + 7,267 
recordkeeping hrs). The Agreement State licensees total burden is 
52,921 hours (767 reporting hrs + 52,154 recordkeeping hrs). The 
average burden per response for both NRC licensees and Agreement State 
licensees is 19.4 hours and the burden per recordkeeper is 214 hours.
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 39 establishes radiation safety 
requirements for the use of radioactive material in well logging 
operations. 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.
