FINAL RULE, 10 CFR Parts 71 and 73,
"Advance Notification to Mative American Tribes of Transportation
of Certain Types of Nuclear Waste" The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is amending its regulations that govern packaging
and transportation of radioactive material and physical protection
of plants and materials. Specifically, the amendments require
licensees to provide advance notification to participating
Federally-recognized Tribal governments regarding shipments of
irradiated reactor fuel and certain nuclear wastes for any shipment
that passes within or across their reservations. The rule extends
to Tribal officials, his or her designee, and Tribal law
wnforcement personnel relief from fingerprinting requirements
required for access to Safeguards Information (SGI_. The
participating Tribal government is required to protect the shipment
information as SGI.
The Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) amended its regulations that govern packaging and
transportation of radioactive material and physical protection of

to Tribal officials, his or her designee, and Tribal law
enforcement personnel relief from fingerprinting requirements
required for access to Safeguards Information (SGI). The
participating Tribal government is required to protect the shipment
information as SGI. The amended regulations impacted 10 CFR Parts
71 and 73, and affected the burden for 10 CFR Part 73. The NRC
packaged both of the impacted information collections into one new
information collection which OMB approved and assigned control
number 3150-0213. The purpose of this 83-C is to transfer all
remaining burden associated with 3150-0213, "10 CFR Parts 71 and
73, Advance Notification to Native American Tribes of
Transportation of Certain Types of Nuclear Waste, Final Rule, to
the appropriate existing OMB clearance to 10 CFR Part 73
(3150-0002). NRC seeks to change the burden and responses in
clearance 3150-0213 to zero, and to add the burden and responses to
the existing control number 3150-0002 for this clearance. The
transfer of this burden from 3150-0213 will not change the NRC's
overall burden, but will result in the burden being transferred to
the existing collection. Once the entire burden for 3150-0213 has
been transferred to the correct clearances, we will submit an 83-D
to discontinue 3150-0213. A total burden of 163 hours will be
transferred to the existing clearance, resulting in a revised total
burden of 0 hours for 3150-0213. This non-substantive change
request is a request to transfer a total of 163 hours from
3150-0213 to 310-0002.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
