NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. NRC-2013-0229]
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 a new 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 749, ``Manual
License Verification Report''.
2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-XXXX.
3. How often the collection is required: On occasion. Licensees
subject to 10 CFR part 37, ``Physical Protection of Byproduct
Material'' license verification requirements must verify the legitimacy
of the license with the issuing agency prior to transferring
[[Page 67205]]
radioactive materials in quantities of concern.
4. Who is required or asked to report: Licensees are required to
complete a license verification under the circumstances noted in 3
above. A License Verification System (LVS) has been developed,
providing an electronic method for fulfilling this requirement. In
cases where a licensee is unable to use the LVS to perform a
verification, they will provide NRC Form 749 for manual license
verification.
5. The number of annual respondents: 91.
6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement
or request: 9.1 hours.
7. Abstract: When a licensee is unable to use the License
Verification System to perform their license verification prior to
transfer, a manual process has been developed, in which licensees
submit the NRC Form 749, ``Manual License Verification Report.'' The
form provides the information necessary for the issuing agencies to
perform the verification on behalf of the transferring licensee.
Submit, by January 7, 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?
