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 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 313, 
``Application for Materials License'' and NRC Forms 313A (RSO), 313A 
(AMP), 313A (ANP), 313A (AUD), 313A (AUT), and 313A (AUS).
    2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0120.
    3. How often the collection is required: There is a one-time 
submittal of the NRC Form 313 (which may include the NRC Form 313A 
series of forms) with information to receive a license. Once a specific 
license has been issued, there is a 10-year resubmittal of the NRC Form 
313 (which may include the NRC form 313A series of forms) with 
information for renewal of the license. Amendment requests are 
submitted as needed by the licensee.
    There is a one-time submittal for all limited specific medical use 
applicants of a NRC Form 313A series form to have each new individual 
identified as a Radiation Safety Officer (RSO), authorized medical 
physicist (AMP), authorized nuclear pharmacist (ANP), or authorized 
user or a subsequent submittal of additional information for one of 
these individuals to be identified with a new authorization on a 
limited specific medical use license.
    NRC Form 313A (RSO) is also used by medical broad scope licensees 
when identifying a new individual as an RSO or adding an additional RSO 
authorization for the individual. This submittal may occur when 
applying for a new license, amendment, or renewal.
    NRC Form 313A (ANP) is also used by commercial nuclear pharmacy 
licensees when requesting an individual be identified for the first 
time as ANP. This submittal may occur when applying for a new license, 
amendment, or renewal.
    4. Who is required or asked to report: All applicants requesting a 
license, amendment or renewal of a license for byproduct or source 
material.
    5. The number of annual respondents: 14,400 (2,000 NRC licensees 
and 12,400 Agreement State licensees).
    6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement 
or request: 61,920 (8,600 NRC and 53,320 Agreement State hours).
    7. Abstract: Applicants must submit NRC Form 313, which may include 
the six forms in the 313A series, to obtain a specific license to 
possess, use, or distribute byproduct or source material. These six 
forms in the 313A series are: (1) NRC Form 313A (RSO), ``Radiation 
Safety Officer Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation''; (2) 
NRC Form 313A (AMP), ``Authorized Medical Physicist Training and 
Experience and Preceptor Attestation''; (3) NRC Form 313A (ANP), 
``Authorized Nuclear Pharmacist Training and Experience and Preceptor 
Attestation''; (4) NRC Form 313A (AUD), ``Authorized User Training and 
Experience and Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined under 35.100, 
35.200, and 35.500)''; (5) NRC Form 313A (AUT), ``Authorized User 
Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined 
under 35.300)''; and (6) NRC Form 313A (AUS), ``Authorized User 
Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined 
under 35.400 and 35.600).'' The information is reviewed by the NRC to 
determine whether the applicant is qualified by training and 
experience, and has equipment, facilities, and procedures which are 
adequate to protect the public health and safety and minimize danger to 
life or property.
    Submit, by December 8, 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?
