10 CFR Parts 30, 31, 32, 40 and 70,
Requirements for Distribution of Byproduct Material, Proposed Rule
The NRC is proposing to amend its regulations to make requirements
for distributors of byproduct material clearer, less prescriptive,
and more risk-informed and up to date. The Commission is also
proposing to redefine categories of devices to be used under
exemptions, add explicit provisions regarding the sealed source and
device registration process, and add flexibility to the licensing
of users of sealed sources and devices. This action is primarily
intended to make licensing processes more efficient and effective.
These changes would affect manufacturers and distributors of
sources and devices containing byproduct material and future users
of some products currently used under general or specific
license.
This proposed rule will result
in an overall burden increase of 951 hours of which 957 hours is
for 10 CFR Part 32, along with a decrease of 6 hours for NRC Form
313. It will impact NRC and Agreement State licensees. The burden
for 10 CFR Part 32 will increase by 957 hours (Reporting -351 hours
+ Recordkeeping 606 hours), while the reporting burden for NRC Form
313 will decrease by 6 hours. This rulemaking is expected to
improve efficiency and effectiveness while continuing to ensure
safety, without a significant increase in the information
collection burden. The new exemption from licensing in Section
30.22 does not contain an information collection, but will allow
for the use of numerous products in the future. Much of the
increased burden is a result of distributors voluntarily ob taining
additional licenses and registration certificates in order of for
their products to be used an exemption from licensing requirements,
and subsequently labeling these products for their users.
