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, ``Licenses and Radiation Safety Requirements for Irradiators.'' 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 January 11, 2024, 89 FR 1946. 1. The title of the information collection: Licenses and Radiation Safety Requirements for Irradiators. 2. OMB approval number: 3150-0158. 3. Type of submission: Extension. 4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable. 5. How often the collection is required or requested: Applications for new licenses and license amendments may be submitted at any time (on occasion). Applications for renewal are submitted every 15 years. Reports are submitted as events occur. 6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Applicants for and holders of specific licenses authorizing the use of licensed material for irradiators. 7. The estimated number of annual responses: 1,527.2 (19.2 for reporting [2.2 NRC licensees and 17 Agreement State licensees], 52 for recordkeepers [6 NRC licensees and 46 Agreement State Licensees], and 1,456 for third-party disclosures [168 NRC licensees and 1,288 Agreement State licensees]). 8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 52 (6 NRC licensees and 46 Agreement State licensees). 9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 29,781 hours (687 reporting hours + 21,762 recordkeeping hours + 7,332 third-party disclosure hours). 10. Abstract: Part 36 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, establishes radiation safety requirements for the use of radioactive material for irradiators. The information in the applications, reports, and records is used by the NRC staff to ensure that the health and safety of the public is protected and that the licensee possession and use of source or byproduct material is in compliance with license and regulatory requirements.
