NRC form 314 furnishes information to
NRC regarding transfer or other disposition of radioactive material
by licensees who wish to terminate their licenses. The information
is used by NRC as part of the basis for its determination that the
facility has been cleared of radioactive material before the
facility is released for unrestricted use.
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. The clearance affecting this
83-C is NRC Form 314, Certificate of Disposition of Materials,
which is currently covered OMB Clearance 3150-0028. This form is
used by materials licensees who wish to terminate their license.
The purpose of this 83-C is to transfer burden from OMB Clearance
3150-0203, 10 CFR Parts 20, 30, 31, 32, & 35, Requirements for
Expanded Definition of Byproduct Material, Final Rule and NRC Forms
4, 5, 313, 314 & 664, to OMB Clearance 3150-0028, Certificate
of Disposition of Materials, which was contained in the final rule
approved 8/23/07. NRC Form 314 is used by materials licensees who
wish to terminate their license. Once the entire burden for
3150-0203 has been transferred to the correct clearances, we will
submit an 83-D to discontinue 3150-0203. A total of 1 hour will be
transferred to 3150-0028, resulting in a revised burden of 87
hours.
