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 entitled,
``Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive 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 March 15, 2022 (87 FR 14587).
1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 71
``Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Material.''
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0008.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion.
Application for package certification may be made at any time. Required
reports are collected and evaluated on a continuous basis as events
occur.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: All NRC specific
licensees who place byproduct, source, or special nuclear material into
transportation, and all persons who wish to apply for NRC approval of
package designs for use in such transportation.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 611.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 225.
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 30,619 hours (25,913
hours reporting + 4,575 hours recordkeeping + 131 hours third-party
disclosure).
10. Abstract: The NRC regulations in 10 CFR part 71 establish
requirements for packaging, preparation for shipment, and
transportation of licensed material, and prescribe procedures,
standards, and requirements for approval by NRC of packaging and
shipping procedures for fissile material and for quantities of licensed
material in excess of Type A quantities. The NRC collects information
pertinent to 10 CFR part 71 for three reasons: to issue a package
approval; to ensure that any incidents or package degradation or defect
are appropriately captured, evaluated and if necessary, corrected to
minimize future potential occurrences; and to ensure that all
activities are completed using an NRC-approval quality assurance
program.

Acting NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
