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,
``Material Control and Accounting of 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 October 2, 2023, 88 FR 67827.
1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 74,
Material Control and Accounting of Special Nuclear Material.
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0123.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: Submission of
fundamental nuclear material control plans is a one-time requirement
which has been completed by all current licensees as required. However,
licensees may submit amendments or revisions to the plans as necessary.
Reports are submitted as events occur.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Persons licensed under
part 74 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), who
possess and use certain forms and quantities of special nuclear
material (SNM).
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 183.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 163.
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 9,439 hours (939
reporting + 8,500 recordkeeping).
10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 74 establishes requirements for material
control and accounting of SNM, and specific performance-based
regulations for licensees authorized to possess, use, or produce
strategic SNM, SNM of moderate strategic significance, or SNM of low
strategic significance. The information is used by the NRC to make
licensing and regulatory determinations concerning material control of
SNM and to satisfy obligations of the United States to the
International Atomic Energy Agency. Submission or retention of the
information is mandatory for persons subject to the requirements.
Dated: February 13, 2024.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
David C. Cullison,
NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
