II. Background Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of an existing collection of information to OMB for review titled, ``Information Collection: 10 CFR part 40, ``Domestic Licensing of Source Material.'' 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 August 25, 2015 (80 FR 51613). 1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 40, Domestic Licensing of Source Material. 2. OMB approval number: 3150-0020. 3. Type of submission: Extension. 4. The form number if applicable: Not applicable. 5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion. Reports required under part 40 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) are collected and evaluated on a continuing basis as events occur. There is a one-time submittal of information to receive a license. Renewal applications need to be submitted every 5 to 10 years. Information in previous applications may be referenced without being resubmitted. In addition, recordkeeping must be performed on an on-going basis. 6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Applicants for and holders of NRC licenses authorizing the receipt, possession, use, or transfer of radioactive source material. 7. The estimated number of annual responses: 1,286 (368 [188 NRC responses + 178 recordkeepers + 2 third party responses] + 918 [200 Agreement States responses + 717 recordkeepers + 1 third party response]). 8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 160 (50 NRC licensees + 110 Agreement States licensees). 9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 10,425 (5,036 NRC Licensees hours [2,773 reporting + 2,257 recordkeeping + 6 third party response] + 5,389 Agreement States licensees' hours [1,709 reporting + 3,677 recordkeeping + 3 third party response]). 10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 40 establishes requirements for licenses for the receipt, possession, use, and transfer of radioactive source material. The application, reporting, recordkeeping, and third party notification requirements are necessary to permit the NRC to make a determination as to whether the possession, use, and transfer of source and byproduct material is in conformance with the Commission's regulations for protection of public health and safety.
