NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Proposed Collection; 

Comment Request 

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC). 

ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to 

submit an information collection 

request to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) and solicitation of public 

comment. 

SUMMARY: The NRC is preparing a 

submittal to OMB for review of 

continued approval of information 

collections under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. Chapter 35). 

Information pertaining to the 

requirement to be submitted: 

1. The title of the information 

collection: 10 CFR Part 39—Licenses 

and Radiation Safety Requirements for 

Well Logging. 

2. Current OMB approval number: 

OMB No. 3150–0130. 

3. How often the collection is 

required: Applications for new licenses 

and amendments may be submitted at 

any time. Applications for renewal are 

submitted every 10 years. Reports are 

submitted as events occur. 

4. Who is required or asked to report: 

Applicants for and holders of specific 

licenses authorizing the use of licensed 

radioactive material for radiography. 

5. The number of annual respondents: 

170 (37 NRC licensees and 133 

Agreement State licensees). 

6. The number of hours needed 

annually to complete the requirement or 

request: 36,890 hours. The NRC 

licensees total burden is 8,037 hours 

(116 reporting hrs plus 7,921 

recordkeeping hrs). The Agreement 

State licensees total burden is 28,853 

hours (423 reporting hrs plus 28,430 

recordkeeping hrs). The average burden 

per response for both NRC licensees and 

Agreement State licensees is 3.2 hours, 

and the burden per recordkeeper is 214 

hours. 

7. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 39 establishes 

radiation safety requirements for the use 

of radioactive material in well logging 

operations. 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 licensee possession 

and use of source and byproduct 

material is in compliance with license 

and regulatory requirements. 

Submit, by July 9, 2007, 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 burden estimate 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 be minimized, 

including the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology?

RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD 

Proposed Collection, Comment 

Request 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

requirement of Section 3506 (c)(2)(A) of 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

which provides opportunity for public 

comment on new or revised data 

collections, the Railroad Retirement 

Board will publish periodic summaries 

of proposed data collections. 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed information collection is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information has practical 

utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s 

estimate of the burden of the collection 

of the information; (c) ways to enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden related to 

the collection of information on 

respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Title and Purpose of information 

collection: Designation of Contact 

Officials; 3220–0200. 

Coordination between railroad 

employers and the RRB is essential to 

properly administer the payment of 

benefits under the Railroad Retirement 

Act (RRA) and the Railroad 

Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA). 

In order to enhance timely coordination 

activity, the RRB utilizes Form G–117a, 

Designation of Contact Officials. Form 

G–117a is used by railroad employers to 

designate employees who are to act as 

point of contact with the RRB on a 

variety of RRA and RUIA-related 

matters. 

The RRB estimates that about 100 G–

117a’s will be submitted annually. 

Completion is voluntary. One response 

is requested from each respondent. 

Completion time is estimated at 15 

minutes. No changes are proposed to 

Form G–117a.

obtain a copy of the information 

collection justification, forms, and/or
