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: 10 CFR 35.32 and 35.33

‘‘Quality Management Program and

Misadministrations’’.

2. Current OMB approval number:

3150–0171.

3. How often the collection is

required: For quality management

program (QMP): Reporting: New

applicants for medical use licenses, who

plan to use byproduct material in

limited diagnostic and therapy

quantities under Part 35, must develop

a written QMP and submit a copy of it

to NRC. When a new modality involving

therapeutic quantities of byproduct

material is added to an existing license,

current licensees must submit QMP

modifications. This ICR burden estimate

is inflated by the one-time cost for the

development and submission of QMPs

for approximately 2000 Agreement

States licensees in the ten Agreement

States who have not adopted the rule

and are not required to. Recordkeeping:

Records of written directives,

administered dose or dosage, annual

review, and recordable events, for 3

years.

For Misadministrations: Reporting:

Whenever a misadministration occurs.

Recordkeeping: Records of

misadministrations for 5 years.

4. Who is required or asked to report:

NRC Part 35 licensees who use

byproduct material in limited diagnostic

and therapeutic ranges and similar type

of licensees regulated by Agreement

States.

5. The estimated number of annual

respondents: 6300 (for both reporting

and recordkeeping).

6. The number of hours needed

annually to complete the requirement or

request: 34,743 hours for applicable

licensees (Reporting: 24,400 Hrs/yr, and

Recordkeeping: 10,343 Hrs/yr, or an

average of 5.5 hrs per licensee).

7. Abstract: In the medical use of

byproduct material, there have been

instances where byproduct material was

not administered as intended or was

administered to a wrong individual,

which resulted in unnecessary

exposures or inadequate diagnostic or

therapeutic procedures. The most

frequent causes of these incidents were:

insufficient supervision, deficient

procedures, failure to follow

procedures, and inattention to detail. In

an effort to reduce the frequency of such

events, the NRC requires licensees to

implement a quality management

program (§ 35.32) to provide high

confidence that byproduct material or

radiation from byproduct material will

be administered as directed by an

authorized user physician. Collection of

this information enables the NRC to

ascertain whether misadministrations

(§ 35.33) are investigated by the licensee

and that corrective action is taken.

Additionally, NRC has a responsibility

to inform the medical community of

generic issues identified in the NRC

review of misadministrations.

Revisions to 10 CFR 35.32 and 35.33

are being made as part of a complete

revision of 10 CFR Part 35 to

incorporate specific improvements in

NRC’s regulations governing the

medical use of byproduct material. A

final rule revising Part 35 was affirmed

by the Commission on October 23, 2000

and was submitted, along with its

associated clearance package, to the

Office of Management and Budget

(OMB). A notice was published in the

Federal Register on March 16, 2001,

announcing a 30-day public comment

period on the submittal. It is anticipated

that the effective date of the final rule

revising Part 35, including the revisions

to Sections 35.32 and 35.33, will be

March 2002, and the OMB clearance for

Sections 35.32 and 35.33 will be then be

included under the OMB clearance for

Part 35 (3150–0010).

Currently, the OMB clearances for

Sections 35.32 and 35.33 are due to

expire October 31, 2001. In view of the

fact that these parts will shortly

thereafter be covered under OMB

clearance 3150–0010, the Commission is

seeking a 1-year clearance extension for

the information collection requirments

in these sections to allow sufficient time

for OMB to complete its review of the

NRC clearance package for the revision

to Part 35, for NRC to publish the final

rule, and for the rule to become

effective. Because the final Part 35 and

its OMB clearance will be in place in a

short time period, the burden hour

estimates in this extension package are

not being revised from those contained

in the previous OMB approval for
