Background In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC is requesting public comment on its intention to request the OMB’s approval for the information collection summarized below. 1. The title of the information collection: Destinations of Released Patients Following Treatment with Iodine-131 and Estimation of Doses to Members of the Public at Locations other than Conventional Residences Receiving Such Patients. 2.

How often the collection is required or requested: One-time. 6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Institutions that treat thyroid cancer patients with I–131 and the thyroid cancer patients who have been treated. 7. The estimated number of annual responses: 5,175 (175 for treating institutions and 5000 for individuals). 8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 5,175. 9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 1,675 (175 hours for treating institution and 1500 hours for individuals). 10. Abstract: Although most patients return to their home after receiving diagnostic or therapeutic of Iodine-131, some patients released by the licensee may stay at another location (such as a hotel) for a few days. However, the extent of this practice is unclear. The same uncertainty exists regarding patients returning to nursing homes and other institutional settings. Therefore, one of the main objectives of this study is to obtain reliable statistical data that provides good estimates of the prevalence of these practices. The second objective is to determine, by measurements, the external and internal doses received by members of the general public at hotels, nursing homes, or other institutional settings that receive treated patients immediately after their release.
