The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) invites public comment about our intention to request the OMB's approval for renewal of an existing information collection that is summarized below. We are required to publish this notice in the Federal Register under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).

Current OMB approval number: 3150-0120. 3. How often the collection is required: There is a one-time submittal of the NRC Form 313 (which may include the NRC Form 313A series of forms) with information to receive a license. Once a specific license has been issued, there is a 10-year resubmittal of the NRC Form 313 (which may include the NRC form 313A series of forms) with information for renewal of the license. Amendment requests are submitted as needed by the licensee. There is a one-time submittal for all limited specific medical use applicants of a NRC Form 313A series form to have each new individual identified as a Radiation Safety Officer (RSO), authorized medical physicist (AMP), authorized nuclear pharmacist (ANP), or authorized user or a subsequent submittal of additional information for one of these individuals to be identified with a new authorization on a limited specific medical use license. NRC Form 313A (RSO) is also used by medical broad scope licensees when identifying a new individual as an RSO or adding an additional RSO authorization for the individual. This submittal may occur when applying for a new license, amendment, or renewal. NRC Form 313A (ANP) is also used by commercial nuclear pharmacy licensees when requesting an individual be identified for the first time as ANP. This submittal may occur when applying for a new license, amendment, or renewal. 4. Who is required or asked to report: All applicants requesting a license, amendment or renewal of a license for byproduct or source material. 5. The number of annual respondents: 14,400 (2,000 NRC licensees and 12,400 Agreement State licensees). 6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement or request: 61,920 (8,600 NRC and 53,320 Agreement State hours). 7. Abstract: Applicants must submit NRC Form 313, which may include the six forms in the 313A series, to obtain a specific license to possess, use, or distribute byproduct or source material. These six forms in the 313A series are: (1) NRC Form 313A (RSO), ``Radiation Safety Officer Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation''; (2) NRC Form 313A (AMP), ``Authorized Medical Physicist Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation''; (3) NRC Form 313A (ANP), ``Authorized Nuclear Pharmacist Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation''; (4) NRC Form 313A (AUD), ``Authorized User Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined under 35.100, 35.200, and 35.500)''; (5) NRC Form 313A (AUT), ``Authorized User Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined under 35.300)''; and (6) NRC Form 313A (AUS), ``Authorized User Training and Experience and Preceptor Attestation (for uses defined under 35.400 and 35.600).'' The information is reviewed by the NRC to determine whether the applicant is qualified by training and experience, and has equipment, facilities, and procedures which are adequate to protect the public health and safety and minimize danger to life or property.
