NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. NRC-2012-0263]
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 664, General
Licensee Registration.
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0198.
3. How often the collection is required: Annually.
4. Who is required or asked to report: General Licensees of the NRC
who possess certain generally licensed devices subject to annual
registration authorized pursuant to Sec. 31.5 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR).
5. The number of annual respondents: 633.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 211 hours.
7. Abstract: NRC Form 664 is used by NRC general licensees to make
reports regarding certain generally licensed devices subject to annual
registration. The registration program allows NRC to better track
general licensees, so that they can be contacted or inspected as
necessary, and to make sure that generally licensed devices can be
identified even if lost or damaged. Also, the registration program
ensures that general licensees are aware of and understand the
requirements for the possession, use and disposal of devices containing
byproduct material. Greater awareness helps to ensure that general
licensees will comply with the regulatory requirements for proper
handling and disposal of generally licensed devices and would reduce
the potential for incidents that could result in unnecessary radiation
exposure to the public and contamination of property.
Submit, by January 22, 2013, 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?
