Notice of pending NRC action to submit an information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and solicitation of public comment.

# SUMMARY:

                        The NRC invites public comment about our intention to request the OMB's approval for renewal of an existing information collection that is summarized below. We are required to publish this notice in the                         **Federal Register**                         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 Part 70, “Domestic Licensing of Special Nuclear Material”.                    

                        2.                         *Current OMB approval number:*                         3150-0009.                    

                        3.                         *How often the collection is required:*                         Requires reports are collected and evaluated on a continuing basis as events occur. Applications for new licenses and amendments may be submitted at any time. Generally, renewal applications are submitted every ten years and for major fuel cycle facilities updates of the safety demonstration section are submitted every two years. Nuclear material control and accounting information is submitted in accordance with specified instructions.                    

                        4.                         *Who is required or asked to report:*                         Applicants for and holders of specific NRC licenses to receive title to, own, acquire, deliver, receive, possess, use, or initially transfer special nuclear material.                              ( print page 63867)    

                        5.                         *The number of annual respondents: 372.*

                        6.                         *The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement or request:*                         89,465 hours (81,785 reporting + 7,700 recordkeeping) or an average of 125 hours per response (81,765 reporting burden hours/655 responses) and an average of 13 hours per recordkeeper (7,700 recordkeeping burden hours/61 recordkeepers).                    

                        7.                         *Abstract:*10 CFR Part 70 establishes requirements for licenses to won, acquire, receive, possess, use, and transfer special nuclear material. The information in the applications, reports, and records is used by NRC to make licensing and other regulatory determinations concerning the use of special nuclear material. The revised estimate of burden reflects the addition of requirements for documentation for termination or transfer of licensed activities, and modifying licenses.                    

Submit, by December 17, 2010, 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?
