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, NRC
Form 244, ``Registration Certificate--Use of Depleted Uranium.'' 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 15, 2025, 90 FR 39430.
1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 244,
Registration Certificate--Use of Depleted Uranium.
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0031.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: NRC Form 244.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Persons who receive,
acquire, possess, or use depleted uranium.
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 21.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 8.5.
9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or request: 12.2 (8.5 reporting +
1.7 recordkeeping + 2.0 third-party disclosure).
10. Abstract: The NRC regulations in part 40 of title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations, establishes requirements for the receipt,
possession, use and transfer of radioactive source and byproduct
materials. Section 40.25 established a general license authorizing the
use of depleted uranium contained in industrial products or devices for
the purpose of providing a concentrated mass in a small volume of the
product or device. The NRC Form 244 is used to report the receipt and
transfer of depleted uranium, as required by 10 CFR 40.25. The
registration information required by the NRC Form 244 enables the NRC
to make a determination on whether the possession, use, or transfer of
depleted uranium source and byproduct material is in conformance with
the NRC's regulations for the protection of public health and safety.
General licensees can also use NRC Form 244 to update any of the
information contained in the form, once the form is authorized by the
NRC.
Dated: December 19, 2025.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
