II. Background
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35), the NRC is requesting public comment on its intention to
request the OMB's approval for the information collection summarized
below.
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. OMB approval number: 3150-0120.
3. Type of submission: Revision.
4. The form number, if applicable: NRC Form 313, ``Application for
Materials License'' and NRC Forms 313A (RSO), 313A (AMP), 313A (ANP),
313A (AUD), 313A (AUT), and 313A (AUS).
5. How often the collection is required or requested: 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 15-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) or Associate Radiation Safety Officer (ARSO) [NRC Form
313A (RSO)], authorized medical physicist or ophthalmic physicist [NRC
Form 313A (AMP)], authorized nuclear pharmacist [NRC Form 313A (ANP)],
or authorized user [NRC Form 313A (AUD), NRC Form 313A (AUS), or NRC
Form 313A (AUT)] 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, a new individual as an
ARSO, adding an additional RSO authorization, or adding an additional
ARSO 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.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: All applicants
requesting a license, amendment or renewal of a license for byproduct
or source material.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: The number of annual
respondents: 8,904 (1,049 NRC licensees and 7,231 Agreement State
licensees + 624 Third party responses).
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: The number of annual
respondents: 8,904 (1,049 NRC licensees and 7,231 Agreement State
licensees + 624 third party respondents).
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 35,634 (4,510 NRC and
31,093 Agreement State hours + 31 third party hours).
10. 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 or Associate Radiation Safety Officer Training,
Experience and Preceptor Attestation [10 CFR 35.57, 35.50]''; (2) NRC
Form 313A (AMP), ``Authorized Medical Physicist and Ophthalmic
Physicist, Training, Experience and Preceptor Attestation [10 CFR
35.51, 35.57(a)(3), and 35.433''; (3) NRC Form 313A (ANP), ``Authorized
Nuclear Pharmacist Training, Experience, and Preceptor Attestation [10
CFR 35.55''; (4) NRC Form 313A
[[Page 3836]]
(AUD), ``Authorized User Training, Experience and Preceptor Attestation
(for uses defined under 35.100, 35.200, and 35.500) [10 CFR 35.57,
35.190, 35.290, and 35.590''; (5) NRC Form 313A (AUT), ``Authorized
User Training, Experience, and Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined
under 35.300) [10 CFR 35.57, 35.390, 35.392, 35.394, and 35.396]''; and
(6) NRC Form 313A (AUS), ``Authorized User Training, Experience and
Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined under 35.400 and 35.600) [10
CFR 35.57, 35.490, 35.491, and 35.690].'' The NRC Form 313A series of
forms requires preceptor attestations for certain individuals. The
preceptor attestation is provided by a third party and not an applicant
or licensee. 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.
III. Specific Requests for Comments
The NRC is seeking 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 estimate of the burden of the information collection
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 on respondents
be minimized, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology?
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 8th day of February 2019.
