NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for the 
Office of Management and Budget (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 has 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 current valid OMB control number.

1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Revision.
2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 30--Rules of 
General Applicability to Domestic Licensing of Byproduct Material.
3. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
4. How often the collection is required: Required reports are collected 
and evaluated on a continuing basis as events occur. There is a one-
time submittal of information to receive a license. Renewal 
applications are submitted every 10 years. Information submitted in 
previous applications may be referenced without being resubmitted. In 
addition, recordkeeping must be performed on an on-going basis.
5. Who will be required or asked to report: All persons applying for or 
holding a license to manufacture, produce, transfer, receive, acquire, 
own, possess, or use radioactive byproduct material.
6. An estimate of the number of responses: 35,178 (7,648 NRC Licensee 
responses (3,163 Responses + 4,485 Recordkeepers) and (27,530 Agreement 
State Licensee responses (11,384 Responses + 16,146 Recordkeepers)).
7. The estimated number of annual respondents: 20,631 (4,485 NRC 
licensees and 16,146 Agreement State licensees).
8. An estimate of the number of hours needed annually to complete the 
requirement or request: 248,034 (NRC licensees 53,948 hours [25,983 
reporting + 27,965 recordkeeping] and Agreement State licensees 194,086 
hours [93,431 reporting + 100,655 recordkeeping] or 8.2 hours per 
response and 6.2 hours per recordkeeper).
9. An indication of whether section 3507(d), Pub. L. 104-13 applies: 
Not applicable.
10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 30 establishes requirements that are 
applicable to all persons in the United States governing domestic 
licensing of radioactive byproduct material. The application, reporting 
and recordkeeping requirements are necessary to permit the NRC to make 
a determination whether the possession, use, and transfer of byproduct 
material is in conformance with the Commission's regulations for 
protection of the public health and safety.
