NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of information collection and 
solicitation of public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The NRC recently submitted to OMB for review the following 
proposal for the collection of information under the provisions of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). 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.
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: New.
    2. The title of the information collection: General Licensee 
Registration.
    3. The form number, if applicable: NRC Form 664.
    4. How often the collection is required: Annually.
    5. Who will be required or asked to report: General Licensees of 
the NRC who possess devices subject to registration under 10 CFR 31.5.
    6. An estimate of the number of annual respondents: 4,300.
    7. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
complete the requirement or request: 1,433 hours annually (4,300 
respondents x 20 minutes per form).
    8. An indication of whether Section 3504(h), Pub. L. 96-511 
applies: Applicable.
    9. Abstract: NRC Form 664 would be used by NRC general licensees to 
make reports regarding certain generally licensed devices subject to 
registration. The registration program is intended to allow NRC to 
better track general licensees, so that they can be contacted or 
inspected as necessary, and to make sure that generally licensed 
devices can be identified even if lost or damaged, and to further 
ensure that general licensees are aware of and understand the 
requirements for the possession of devices containing byproduct 
material. Greater awareness helps to ensure that general licensees will 
comply with the requirements for proper handling and disposal of 
generally licensed devices and would reduce the potential for incidents 
that could result in unnecessary radiation exposure to the public and 
contamination of property.
    A copy of NRC Form 664 and the final OMB supporting statement may 
be viewed free of charge at the NRC Public Document Room, One White 
Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike, Room 1F23, Rockville, MD 20852. OMB 
clearance requests are also available at the NRC Worldwide web site: 
http://www.nrc.gov/NRC/PUBLIC/OMB/index.html. The OMB supporting 
statement, and NRC Form 664 will be available on the NRC home page for 
60 days after the signature date of this notice.
    Comments and questions should be directed to the OMB reviewer by 
December 18, 2000. Comments received after this date will be considered 
if it is practical to do so, but assurance of consideration cannot be 
given to comments received after this date.
