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: 10 CFR Part 34, 
``Licenses for Radiography and Radiation Safety Requirements for 
Radiographic Operations.''
    2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0007.
    3. How often the collection is required: Applications for new 
licenses and amendments may be submitted at any time (on occasion). 
Applications for renewal are submitted every 10 years. Reports are 
submitted as events occur.
    4. Who is required or asked to report: Applicants for and holders 
of specific licenses authorizing the use of licensed radioactive 
material for radiography.
    5. The number of annual respondents: 608 (529 Agreement State 
licensees plus 79 NRC licensees).
    6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement 
or request: 234,412 hours (502 reporting + 210,015.6 recordkeeping + 
23,894.4 third party disclosure). The NRC licensees' total burden is 
30,644.2 hours and the Agreement State licensees' total burden is 
203,767.8 hours.
    7. Abstract: Part 34 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 
(10 CFR), 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.
    Submit, by January 3, 2014, 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?
