transactions involving nationally
tracked sources to the National Source
Tracking System. These transactions
include manufacture, transfer, receipt,
disassembly, or disposal of the
nationally tracked source. This
information collection is mandatory and
is used to populate the National Source

In the Matter of General Motors
Corporation, Detroit, MI; Demand for
Information
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
I
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC or Commission) is issuing this
Demand for Information because it is
our understanding that General Motors
Corporation (GM) possesses radioactive
material in the form of tritium in exit
signs. Because GM possesses radioactive
material in this form, it holds what is
referred to as a ‘‘general license’’ to
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:37 Jun 10, 2009
Jkt 217001
possess such material. In this case, GM’s
general license has been issued by the
NRC pursuant to section 31.5 in Part 10
of the Code of Federal Regulations (10
CFR 31.5). This general license
authorizes GM, the licensee, to receive,
possess, use, or transfer, in accordance
with the provisions of paragraphs (b), (c)
and (d) of 10 CFR 31.5, radioactive
material contained in devices designed
and manufactured for the purpose of
producing light.
II
On December 7, 2006, NRC issued
Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2006–
25, ‘‘Requirements for the Distribution
and Possession of Tritium Exit Signs
and the Requirements in 10 CFR 31.5
and 32.51a.’’ This RIS was issued in part
to remind general licensees of the
requirements in 10 CFR 31.5 regarding
transfer and disposal of tritium exit
signs. It was NRC’s intent that issuance
of this RIS would minimize the chances
of improper disposal of tritium exit
signs.
Despite the publication of the RIS in
2006, NRC has reason to believe that
certain general licensees may lack
awareness of their responsibility to
account for and properly dispose of
tritium exit signs. Therefore, the NRC
needs further information to determine
whether we can have reasonable
assurance that general licensees are
complying with NRC regulations
applying to the possession, transfer, and
disposal of tritium exit signs.
III
Accordingly, pursuant to sections
161c, 161o, 182 and 186 of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and
the Commission’s regulations in 10 CFR
2.204 and 10 CFR 31.5, the NRC seeks
information in order to determine
whether additional regulatory action
should be taken to ensure compliance
with NRC requirements. Within 60 days
of the date of this Demand for
Information, GM must submit a written
answer to the Director, Office of Federal
and State Materials and Environmental
Management Programs, U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington,
DC 20555–0001. GM’s answer must be
submitted under oath or affirmation,
and it must provide the following
information:
A. Explain how GM ensures
compliance with the NRC requirements
applying to the possession, transfer, and
disposal of tritium exit signs GM has
acquired. Identify and provide contact
information for the individual GM has
appointed who is responsible for
ensuring day to day compliance with
these requirements;
PO 00000
Frm 00065
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

B. State the number of tritium exit
signs GM currently possesses and the
number of signs that, according to GM’s
records, should be in GM’s possession.
C. Explain the reasons for any
discrepancy between the number of
tritium exit signs GM currently
possesses and the number of signs that
should be in GM’s possession.
D. Describe any actions GM has taken
or plans to take, to locate tritium exit
signs that should be, but are not, in
GM’s possession.
E. Describe any actions GM has taken
or plans to take, to prevent future losses
of tritium exit signs.
After reviewing GM’s response, the
NRC will determine whether further
action is necessary to ensure
compliance with regulatory
requirements.
The Director, Office of Federal and
State Materials and Environmental
Management Programs, may, in writing,
relax or rescind any of the above
conditions upon demonstration by the
Licensee of good cause, such as a
particularly large number of signs
spread over multiple locations. If GM
believes GM cannot report the results
within the 60-day deadline, GM may
forward a request to extend the
deadline. Extensions will be granted if
GM can reasonably demonstrate an
inability to meet the deadline.
Additionally, any other requirement can
be relaxed or rescinded, as long as GM
can reasonably demonstrate why that
requirement should be relaxed or
rescinded. Such requests may be
emailed to MSEA@nrc.gov or faxed to
Angela McIntosh at (301) 415–5955.
Questions about this Demand for
Information may be referred to Tritium
Exit Sign Inventory Support at (301)
415–3340.
Send responses to: Director, Office of
Federal and State Materials and
Environmental Management Programs,
