| 1 *Types of fees*—Separate charges, as shown in the schedule, will be assessed for pre-application consultations and reviews; applications for new licenses, approvals, or license terminations; possession-only licenses; issuances of new licenses and approvals; certain amendments and renewals to existing licenses and approvals; safety evaluations of sealed sources and devices; generally licensed device registrations; and certain inspections. The following guidelines apply to these charges: | |
| (1) *Application and registration fees.* Applications for new materials licenses and export and import licenses; applications to reinstate expired, terminated, or inactive licenses, except those subject to fees assessed at full costs; applications filed by Agreement State licensees to register under the general license provisions of [10 CFR 150.20](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-150.20); and applications for amendments to materials licenses that would place the license in a higher fee category or add a new fee category must be accompanied by the prescribed application fee for each category. | |
| (i) Applications for licenses covering more than one fee category of special nuclear material or source material must be accompanied by the prescribed application fee for the highest fee category. | |
| (ii) Applications for new licenses that cover both byproduct material and special nuclear material in sealed sources for use in gauging devices will pay the appropriate application fee for fee category 1.C. only. | |
| (2) *Licensing fees.* Fees for reviews of applications for new licenses, renewals, and amendments to existing licenses, pre-application consultations and other documents submitted to the NRC for review, and project manager time for fee categories subject to full cost fees are due upon notification by the Commission in accordance with [§ 170.12(b)](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-170.12#p-170.12(b)). | |
| (3) *Amendment fees.* Applications for amendments to export and import licenses must be accompanied by the prescribed amendment fee for each license affected. An application for an amendment to an export or import license or approval classified in more than one fee category must be accompanied by the prescribed amendment fee for the category affected by the amendment, unless the amendment is applicable to two or more fee categories, in which case the amendment fee for the highest fee category would apply. | |
| (4) *Inspection fees.* Inspections resulting from investigations conducted by the Office of Investigations and nonroutine inspections that result from third-party allegations are not subject to fees. Inspection fees are due upon notification by the Commission in accordance with [§ 170.12(c)](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-170.12#p-170.12(c)). | |
| (5) *Generally licensed device registrations under [10 CFR 31.5](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-31.5).* Submittals of registration information must be accompanied by the prescribed fee. | |
| 2 Fees will be charged for approvals issued under a specific exemption provision of the Commission's regulations under title 10 of the *Code of Federal Regulations* (e.g., [10 CFR 30.11](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-30.11), [40.14](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-40.14), [70.14](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-70.14), [73.5](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-73.5), and any other sections in effect now or in the future), regardless of whether the approval is in the form of a license amendment, letter of approval, safety evaluation report, or other form. In addition to the fee shown, an applicant may be assessed an additional fee for sealed source and device evaluations as shown in fee categories 9.A. through 9.D. | |
| 3 Full cost fees will be determined based on the professional staff time multiplied by the appropriate professional hourly rate established in [§ 170.20](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/section-170.20) in effect when the service is provided, and the appropriate contractual support services expended. | |
| 4 Licensees paying fees under categories 1.A., 1.B., and 1.E. are not subject to fees under categories 1.C., 1.D. and 1.F. for sealed sources authorized in the same license, except for an application that deals only with the sealed sources authorized by the license. | |
| 5 Persons who possess radium sources that are used for operational purposes in another fee category are not also subject to the fees in this category. (This exception does not apply if the radium sources are possessed for storage only.) | |
| 6 Licensees subject to fees under fee categories 1.A., 1.B., 1.E., or 2.A. must pay the largest applicable fee and are not subject to additional fees listed in this table. | |
| 7 Licensees paying fees under 3.C., 3.C.1, or 3.C.2 are not subject to fees under 2.B. for possession and shielding authorized on the same license. | |
| 8 Licensees paying fees under 7.C. are not subject to fees under 2.B. for possession and shielding authorized on the same license. | |
| 9 Licensees paying fees under 3.N. are not subject to paying fees under 3.P., 3.P.1, or 3.P.2 for calibration or leak testing services authorized on the same license. | |
| 10 Licensees paying fees under 7.B., 7.B.1, or 7.B.2 are not subject to paying fees under 7.C., 7.C.1, or 7.C.2. for broad scope licenses issued under [parts 30](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/part-30), [35](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/part-35), [40](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/part-40), and [70 of this chapter](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/part-70) for human use of byproduct material, source material, and/or special nuclear material, except licenses for byproduct material, source material, or special nuclear material in sealed sources contained in teletherapy devices authorized on the same license. | |
| 11 A materials license (or part of a materials license) that transitions to fee category 14.A is assessed full-cost fees under [10 CFR part 170](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/part-170), but is not assessed an annual fee under [10 CFR part 171](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/part-171). If only part of a materials license is transitioned to fee category 14.A, the licensee may be charged annual fees (and any applicable [10 CFR part 170](/on/2024-09-17/title-10/part-170) fees) for other activities authorized under the license that are not in decommissioning status. | |
| 12 Because the resources for import and export licensing activities are identified as a fee-relief activity to be excluded from the fee-recoverable budget, import and export licensing actions will not incur fees. | |
| 13 Licensees paying fees under 4.A., 4.B. or 4.C. are not subject to paying fees under 3.N. licenses that authorize services for other licensees authorized on the same license. | |
