II. Background Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, ``10 CFR Part 32, Specific Domestic Licenses to Manufacture or Transfer Certain Items Containing Byproduct Material.'' 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 April 2, 2019 (84 FR 12643). 1. The title of the information collection: Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), part 32, ``Specific Domestic Licenses to Manufacture or Transfer Certain Items Containing Byproduct Material.'' 2. OMB approval number: 3150-0001. 3. Type of submission: Extension. 4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 653, NRC Form 653A, and NRC Form 653B. 5. How often the collection is required or requested: There is a one-time submittal of information to receive a certificate of registration for a sealed source and/or device. Certificates of registration for sealed sources and/or devices can be amended at any time. In addition, licensee recordkeeping must be performed on an on- going basis, and reporting of transfer of byproduct material must be reported every calendar year, and in some cases, every calendar quarter. 6. Who will be required or asked to respond: All specific licensees who manufacture or initially transfer items containing byproduct material for sale or distribution to general licensees, or persons exempt from licensing, medical use product distributors to specific licensees, and those requesting a certificate of registration for a sealed source and/or device. 7. The estimated number of annual responses: 3,197 [2,637 reporting + 252 recordkeepers + 308 third-party recordkeepers]. 8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 617 (180 NRC licenses, registration certificate holder, and 437 Agreement States licensees and registration certificate holders). 9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 66,585 (18,405 reporting + 1,112 recordkeeping + 47,068 third-party). 10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 32, establishes requirements for specific licenses for the introduction of byproduct material into products or materials and transfer of the products or materials to general licensees, or persons exempt from licensing, medical use product distributors to specific licensees, and those requesting a certificate of registration for a sealed source and/or device. It also prescribes requirements governing holders of the specific licenses. Some of the requirements are for information which must be submitted in an application for a certificate of registration for a sealed source and/ or device, records which must be kept, reports which must be submitted, and information which must be forwarded to general licensees and persons exempt from licensing. As mentioned, 10 CFR part 32 also prescribes requirements for the issuance of certificates of registration (concerning radiation safety information about a product) to manufacturers or initial transferors of sealed sources and devices. Submission or retention of the information is mandatory for persons subject to the 10 CFR part 32 requirements. The information is used by the NRC to make licensing and other regulatory determinations concerning the use of radioactive byproduct material in products and devices. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 11th day of July, 2019. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. David C. Cullison, NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
