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 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: Survey of Steel Mills:

Support for a Risk Assessment of

General- and Specific-Licensed Devices.

2. Current OMB approval number:

None.

3. How often the collection is

required: The survey requires a one-time

response.

4. Who is required or asked to report:

Steel mills in the United States.

5. The number of annual respondents:

300 steel mills.

6. The number of hours needed

annually to complete the requirement or

request: Each questionnaire is expected

to take about 3 hours to complete. The

total burden for the industry is 900

hours. An additional 40 hours will be

expended by trade organizations in

distributing and collecting the

questionnaires.

7. Abstract: NRC is conducting a

survey to obtain information for a

comprehensive assessment of the risk

associated with radioactive material

which has entered the scrap stream due

to loss of control of the material by

licensed users. Steel mills that have

accidentally smelted the radioactive

material that has been found in the

metal recycling stream have incurred

large expenses to decontaminate plants

and unnecessary exposures also have

occurred due to handling the

radioactive material. The information

from the survey will assist NRC in

determining the probability of

identifying radioactive material in the

scrap stream and the likely radiation

exposures to members of the public.

Submit, by October 14, 1997

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?
