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, 10
CFR part 11, ``Criteria and Procedures for Determining Eligibility for
Access to or Control Over Special Nuclear 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 September 1, 2022, 87 FR
53795.
1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 11,
``Criteria and Procedures for Determining Eligibility for Access to or
Control Over Special Nuclear Material.''
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0062.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: N/A.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Employees (including
applicants for employment), contractors, and consultant for NRC
licensees and contractors whose activities involves access to, or
control over, special nuclear material at either fixed sites or for
transportation activities.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 558.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 2.
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 139.4 (139 reporting and
0.4 recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: The NRC's regulations in part 11 of title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), establish requirements for access
to special nuclear material, and the criteria and procedures for
resolving questions concerning the eligibility of individuals to
receive special nuclear material access authorization. The specific
part 11 requirements covered under this OMB clearance include requests
for exemptions to part 11 requirements, amendments to security plans
that require incumbents to have material access authorizations, access
authorization cancellations. In addition, licensees must keep records
of the names and access authorization numbers of certain individuals
assigned to shipments of special nuclear material. The information
required by 10 CFR part 11 is needed to establish control over and
maintain records of who is properly authorized to safeguard and have
access to special nuclear material. Not knowing this information could
cause harm to the public and national security.
