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

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

Federal Jurisdiction, or Offshore Waters''.
    3. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 241.
    4. How often the collection is required: NRC Form 241 must be 
submitted each time an Agreement State licensee wants to engage in or 
revise its activities involving the use of radioactive byproduct 
material in a non-Agreement State, areas of exclusive Federal 
jurisdiction, or offshore waters. The NRC may waive the requirements 
for filing additional copies of NRC Form 241 during the remainder of 
the calendar year following receipt of the initial form from a licensee 
engaging in activities under the general license.
    5. Who will be required or asked to report: Any licensees who hold 
a specific license from an Agreement State and want to conduct the same 
activity in non-Agreement States, areas of exclusive Federal 
jurisdiction, or offshore waters under the general license in 10 CFR

Agreement State licensee who engages in activities (use of radioactive 
byproduct material) in non-Agreement States, areas of exclusive Federal

Proposed Activities in Non-Agreement States, Areas of Exclusive Federal 
Jurisdiction, or Offshore Waters,'' and four copies of its Agreement 
State license at least 3 days before engaging in such activity. This 
mandatory notification permits NRC to schedule inspections of the 
activities to determine whether the activities are being conducted in 
accordance with requirements for protection of the public health and 
safety.
