Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
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 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (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: NRC Form 748,
``National Source Tracking Transaction Report.''
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0202.
3. How often the collection is required: On occasion (at completion
of a transaction, and at inventory reconciliation).
4. Who is required or asked to report: Licensees that manufacture,
receive, transfer, disassemble, or dispose of nationally tracked
sources.
5. The number of annual respondents: 1,400 (260 NRC Licensees +
1,140 Agreement State Licensees).
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 1,601.5 hours.
7. Abstract: In 2006, the NRC amended its regulations to implement
a National Source Tracking System (NSTS) for certain sealed sources.
The amendments require licensees to report certain transactions
involving nationally tracked sources to the NSTS. These transactions
include manufacture, transfer, receipt, disassembly, or disposal of the
nationally tracked source. This information collection is mandatory and
is used to populate the NSTS.
