II. Background
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.

submitted as events occur. General license registration requests may be
submitted at any time. Changes to the information on the registration
may be submitted as they occur.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Persons receiving,
possessing, using, or transferring devices containing byproduct
material.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 140,281 (10,681

assurance, that devices are operated safely and without radiological
hazard to users or the public.
