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.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

[[Page 42375]]

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 currently valid OMB control number.
The NRC published a Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period on this information collection on April 14, 2008.
    1. Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Extension.
    2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 32--
Specific Domestic Licenses to Manufacture or Transfer Certain Items
Containing Byproduct Material.
    3. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0001.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 653.
    5. How often the collection is required: There is a one-time
submittal of information to receive a certificate of registration for a
sealed source and/or device. Certificates of registration for sealed
sources and/or devices can be amended at any time. In addition,
licensee recordkeeping must be performed on an on-going basis, and
reporting of transfer of byproduct material must be reported every
calendar year, and in some cases, every calendar quarter.
    6. Who will be required or asked to report: All specific licensees
who manufacture or initially transfer items containing byproduct
material for sale or distribution to general licensees, or persons
exempt from licensing, medical use product distributors to specific
licensees, and those requesting a certificate of registration for a
sealed source and/or device.
    7. An estimate of the number of annual responses: 1,315
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 846 (239 NRC
licensees and registration certificate holders and 607 Agreement State
licensees and registration certificate holders).
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to
complete the requirement or request: 166,054 (10,635 reporting hours,
155,285 hours for recordkeeping, and 134 hours for third party
disclosures)
    10. Abstract: 10 CFR Part 32 establishes requirements for specific
licenses for the introduction of byproduct material into products or
materials and transfer of the products or materials to general
licensees, or persons exempt from licensing, medical use product
distributors to specific licensees, and those requesting a certificate
of registration for a sealed source and/or device. It also prescribes
requirements governing holders of the specific licenses. Some of the
requirements are for information which must be submitted in an
application for a certificate of registration for a sealed source and/
or device, records which must be kept, reports which must be submitted,
and information which must be forwarded to general licensees and
persons exempt from licensing. As mentioned, 10 CFR Part 32 also
prescribes requirements for the issuance of certificates of
registration (concerning radiation safety information about a product)
to manufacturers or initial transferors of sealed sources and devices.
Submission or retention of the information is mandatory for persons
subject to the 10 CFR Part 32 requirements. The information is used by
NRC to make licensing and other regulatory determinations concerning
the use of radioactive byproduct material in products and devices.
