Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, ``NRC Form 244, ``Registration Certificate--Use of Depleted Uranium Under General License.'' The NRC hereby informs potential respondents that an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and that a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The NRC published a Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment period on this information collection on August 24, 2018, 83 FR 42946. 1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 244, ``Registration Certificate--Use of Depleted Uranium Under General License.'' 2. OMB approval number: 3150-0031. 3. Type of submission: Revision. 4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 244. 5. How often the collection is required or requested: Within 30 days after the first receipt or acquisition of depleted uranium. Any changes in information furnished by the registrant in the NRC Form 244 shall be reported in writing to the Director, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards, with a copy to the Regional Administrator of the appropriate U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regional Office listed in appendix D of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) part 20; this report shall be submitted within 30 days after the effective date of such change. 6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Persons who receive, acquire, possess, or use depleted uranium pursuant to the general license established in 10 CFR 40.25(a). 7. The estimated number of annual responses: 19. 8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 11.5. 9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 11 hours. 10. Abstract: Part 40 of 10 CFR, establishes requirements for the receipt, possession, use and transfer of radioactive source and byproduct materials. Section 40.25 established a general license authorizing the use of depleted uranium contained in industrial products or devices for the purpose of providing a concentrated mass in a small volume of the product or device. The NRC Form 244 is used to report the receipt and transfer of depleted uranium, as required by section 40.25. The registration information required by the NRC Form 244 enables the NRC to make a determination on whether the possession, use, or transfer of depleted uranium source and byproduct material is in conformance with the NRC's regulations for the protection of public health and safety. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 3rd day of January 2018. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. David C. Cullison, NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
