NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. NRC-2010-0322]
Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to submit an information
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and
solicitation of public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NRC invites public comment about our intention to request
the OMB's approval for renewal of an existing information collection
that is summarized below. We are required to publish this notice in the
Federal Register under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted:
1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 70,
``Domestic Licensing of Special Nuclear Material''.
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0009.
3. How often the collection is required: Requires reports are
collected and evaluated on a continuing basis as events occur.
Applications for new licenses and amendments may be submitted at any
time. Generally, renewal applications are submitted every ten years and
for major fuel cycle facilities updates of the safety demonstration
section are submitted every two years. Nuclear material control and
accounting information is submitted in accordance with specified
instructions.
4. Who is required or asked to report: Applicants for and holders
of specific NRC licenses to receive title to, own, acquire, deliver,
receive, possess, use, or initially transfer special nuclear material.
[[Page 63867]]
5. The number of annual respondents: 372.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 89,465 hours (81,785 reporting + 7,700 recordkeeping) or an
average of 125 hours per response (81,765 reporting burden hours/655
responses) and an average of 13 hours per recordkeeper (7,700
recordkeeping burden hours/61 recordkeepers).
7. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 70 establishes requirements for licenses
to won, acquire, receive, possess, use, and transfer special nuclear
material. The information in the applications, reports, and records is
used by NRC to make licensing and other regulatory determinations
concerning the use of special nuclear material. The revised estimate of
burden reflects the addition of requirements for documentation for
termination or transfer of licensed activities, and modifying licenses.
Submit, by December 17, 2010, comments that address the following
questions:
1. Is the proposed collection of information necessary for the NRC
to properly perform its functions? Does the information have practical
utility?
2. Is the burden estimate accurate?
3. Is there a way to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information to be collected?
4. How can the burden of the information collection be minimized,
including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology?
