Comment Request

AGENCY: 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:

and Regulations for the Export and Import of Nuclear Equipment and 
Material.
    2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0036.
    3. How often the collection is required: On occasion.
    4. Who is required or asked to report: Any person in the U.S. who 
wishes to export or import nuclear material and equipment subject to 
the requirements of 10 CFR part 110 or to export incidental radioactive 
material that is a contaminant of shipments of more than 100 kilograms 
of non-waste material using existing NRC general licenses.
    5. The number of annual respondents: 125.
    6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement 
or request: Reporting, 130 hours (1.3 hours per response); 
recordkeeping, 150 hours (1.2 hours per respondent). The total burden 
is 280 hours.
    7. Abstract: 10 CFR part 110 provides application, reporting, and 
recordkeeping requirements for exports and imports of nuclear material 
and equipment subject to the requirements of a specific license or a 
general license and exports of incidental radioactive material. The 
information collected and maintained pursuant to 10 CFR part 110 
enables the NRC to authorize only imports and exports which are not 
inimical to U.S. common defense and security and which meet applicable 
statutory, regulatory, and policy requirements.
    Submit, by January 3, 2000, 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?
