Abstract: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) amended its regulations to include jurisdiction over discrete sources of radium-226, accelerator-produced radioactive materials, and discrete sources of naturally occurring radioactive material, as required by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct), which was signed into law on August 8, 2005. This provides a regulatory framework by which to license and regulate byproduct material in accordance with the new, expanded definition. The amended regulations impacted numerous existing information collections. The NRC packaged all of the impacted information collections into one new information collection which OMB approved and assigned control number 3150-0203. One of the areas of existing Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulations revised was Part 31.

Short Statement: In August of 2007, The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) amended its regulations to include jurisdiction over discrete sources of radium-226, accelerator-produced radioactive materials, and discrete sources of naturally occurring radioactive material, as required by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct), which was signed into law on August 8, 2005. This provided a regulatory framework by which to license and regulate byproduct material in accordance with the new, expanded definition. The amended regulations impacted numerous existing NRC information collections. The NRC packaged all the impacted information collections under the amended regulations and submitted it to OMB as a new information collection, which OMB approved and assigned control number 3150-0203. NRC is submitting his “no material or nonsubstantive change to a currently approved collection” to move the approved information collection covered under part 31 in this collection to the NRC existing approved collection for Part 31, 3150-0016.
