Documents Containing Reporting or

Recordkeeping Requirements: Office

of Management and Budget (OMB)

Review

AGENCY: U. S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Notice of the OMB review of

information collection and solicitation

of public comment. 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.

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).

1. Type of submission: Revision.

2. The title of the information

collection: 10 CFR 35.32 and 35.33,

‘‘Quality Management Program and

Misadministrations’’.

3. The form number if applicable: Not

applicable.

4. How often the collection is

required: One time submittal of a

quality management program (QMP) for

each existing and new licensee, when

the QMP is modified, or when new

modalities (uses) are added to an

existing license. Misadministrations are

reported as they occur. Records of

written directives, administered dose or

dosage, an annual review of the QMP,

and recordable events must be

maintained in auditable form for 3 years

and misadministrations for 5 years.

5. Who will be required or asked to

report: 10 CFR Part 35 licensees and

equivalent Agreement State licensees

who use byproduct material in limited

diagnostic and therapeutic ranges.

6. An estimate of the number of

responses: 3825.

7. The estimated number of annual

respondents: 6388.

8. An estimate of the total number of

hours needed annually to complete the

requirement or request: Approximately

51,778 hours (reporting: 38,706 hrs/yr

and recordkeeping: 13,072 hrs/yr).

9. An indication of whether Section

3507(d), Pub. L. 104–13 applies:

applicable.

10. Abstract: In the medical use of

byproduct material, there have been

instances where byproduct material was

not administered as intended or

administered to a wrong individual

which resulted in unnecessary

exposures or inadequate or incorrect

diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.

The most frequent causes of these

incidents were: insufficient supervision,

deficient procedures, failure to follow

procedures, and inattention to detail. To

reduce the frequency of such events, the

NRC requires licensees to implement a

quality management program (10 CFR

35.32) to provide high confidence that

byproduct material or radiation from

byproduct material will be administered

as directed by an authorized user

physician.

Records and reports to NRC are

required for certain errors in the

administration of limited diagnostic and

therapeutic quantities of byproduct

material by medical use licensees.

Section 35.33 clarifies these

requirements to avoid confusion over

whether certain events should be

reported to NRC and to help ensure that

the licensee is in compliance with the

requirements. NRC has a responsibility

to inform the medical community of

generic issues identified in the NRC

review of misadministrations.

NRC has revised the definition for

‘‘misadministration’’ in 10 CFR 35.2,

‘‘Definitions.’’ The revision

considerably reduces the number of

‘‘errors’’ that must be reported to the

NRC or an Agreement State.

Collection of this information will

enable the NRC to ascertain whether

misadministrations are investigated by

the licensee and that corrective action is

taken.

A copy of the submittal may be

viewed free of charge at the NRC Public

Document Room, 2120 L Street, NW,

(Lower Level), Washington, DC.

Members of the public who are in the

Washington, DC, area can access the

submittal via modem on the Public

Document Room Bulletin Board (NRC’s

Advanced Copy Document Library) NRC

subsystem at FedWorld, 703–321–3339.

Members of the public who are located

outside of the Washington, DC, area can

PENSION BENEFIT GUARANTY

CORPORATION

Request for Comment on Proposed

Collection of Information Under the

Paperwork Reduction Act; Customer

Satisfaction Surveys and Focus

Groups

AGENCY: Pension Benefit Guaranty

Corporation.

ACTION: Notice of intention to request

OMB approval.

SUMMARY: The Pension Benefit Guaranty

Corporation intends to request that the

Office of Management and Budget

approve a series of new collections of

information under the Paperwork

Reduction Act. The purpose of the

information collections, which will be

conducted through focus groups and

surveys over a three-year period, is to

help the PBGC assess the efficiency and

effectiveness with which it serves its

customers and to design actions to

address identified problems. The effect

of this notice is to advise the public of,

and to solicit public comment on, these

proposed collections of information.

ADDRESSES: All written comments

should be addressed to: Office of

General Counsel, Pension Benefit

Guaranty Corporation, Suite 340, 1200 K

St. NW., Washington, D. C. 20005. The

comments will be available for public

inspection at the PBGC

Communications and Public Affairs

Department, Suite 240, 1200 K Street,

NW., Washington, DC 20005, between

the hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Marc L. Jordan, Attorney, Office of the

General Counsel, Suite 340, 1200 K

Street, NW., Washington, DC 20005,

202–326–4026 (202–326–4179 for TTY

and TDD). (These are not toll-free

numbers.)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44

U.S.C. Chapter 35) establishes policies

and procedures for controlling the

paperwork burdens imposed by Federal

agencies on the public. The Act vests

the Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) with regulatory responsibility

over these burdens, and OMB has

promulgated rules on the clearance of

collections of information by Federal

agencies.

Executive Order 12862, Setting

Customer Service Standards, states that,

in order to carry out the principles of

the National Performance Review, the

Federal Government must be customerdriven. It directs all executive

departments and agencies that provide

significant services directly to the

public to provide those services in a

manner that seeks to meet the customer

service standards established in the

Executive Order.

The PBGC proposes to establish a

mechanism through which it will be

able to explore issues of mutual concern

(e.g., kind and quality of desired

services) with its major outside client

groups, i.e., participants and

beneficiaries, plan sponsors and their

affiliates, plan administrators, pension

practitioners and others involved in the

establishment, operation and

termination of plans covered by the

PBGC’s insurance program.

The areas of concern to the PBGC and

its client groups will change over time,

and it is important that the PBGC have

the ability to evaluate customer

concerns quickly. Accordingly, the

PBGC plans to request that OMB grant

‘‘generic’’ approval, for a three-year

period, of focus groups and surveys of

the PBGC’s outside client groups.

Participation in the focus groups and

surveys will be voluntary. The PBGC

will consult with OMB regarding each

specific information collection during

the approval period.

This voluntary collection of

information will put a slight burden on

a very small percentage of the public.

The PBGC expects to conduct focus

groups involving a total of

approximately 225 persons each year,

with a total annual burden of

approximately 675 hours, including

travel time. (Some portion of this time

may be spent completing surveys at

focus group meetings.) In addition, the

PBGC expects to distribute written

surveys to approximately 1,600 persons

each year (in most cases as an adjunct

to a focus group), with a total annual

burden of approximately 200 hours.

The PBGC is specifically seeking

public comments to:

(1) Evaluate whether the proposed

collection of information is necessary

for the proper performance of the

functions of the agency, including

whether the information will have

practical utility;

(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the

estimate of the burden of the proposed

collection of information, including the

validity of the methodology and

assumptions used;

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and

clarity of the information to be

collected; and

(4) Minimize the burden of the

collection of information on those who

are to respond, including through the

use of appropriate automated,

electronic, mechanical, or other

technological collection techniques or

other forms of information technology.

December, 1995.
