Part 35 of Title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (10 CFR), "Medical Use of Byproduct Material,"
contains NRC's requirements and provisions for the medical use of
byproduct material and for issuance of specific licenses
authorizing the medical use of this material. These requirements
and provisions provide for the radiation safety of workers, the
general public, patients, and human research subjects. Part 35
contains mandatory requirements that apply to NRC licensees
authorized to administer byproduct material or radiation therefrom
to humans for medical use. These requirements also provide
voluntary provisions for specialty boards to apply to have their
certification processes recognized by the NRC so that their board
certified individuals can use the certifications as proof of
training and experience.
The overall burden has
decreased by 107,754 hours from 1,173,785 hours (NRC Licensees
156,538 hrs + Agreement States 1,017,247 hrs) to 1,066,031 hours
(NRC Licensees 144,203 hrs + Agreement States 921,826 hrs +
specialty certifying entities 2 hrs), the number of responses
decreased by 6,439 responses from 246,581 responses (32,880 NRC
Licensees + 213,701 Agreement States) to 240,145 ((NRC: 31,431 +
1,035 recordkeepers = 32,466) + (Agreement States: 201,053 + 6,624
recordkeepers + 2 specialty certification entity = 207,679)). The
burden calculations were affected by (1) a reduction in the number
of NRC medical use licensees and Agreement State licensees, (2) a
shift in the distribution of medical uses by the NRC licensees that
may not reflect the same distribution of Agreement State medical
use licensees, (3) use of the WBL data base which provides more
detailed information for some medical uses, and (4) consolidation
of multiple NRC licenses into a single medical use license the WBL
data base. The requirements for the reporting burden notifications
have been moved from the NRC and Agreement States reporting tables
(Table 1 and Table 4) to the third-party disclosure tables (Table 3
and Table 6). NRC calculates the burden for Agreement State medical
use licensees based on the ratio of NRC licensees to Agreement
State licensees, and distribution of the types of medical uses
authorized by NRC medical use licensees. While the total number of
NRC and Agreement State licensees decreased from 2010 to 2013, the
decrease in the number of Agreement State medical use licensees may
not have been proportional to the decrease in the total number of
NRC medical use licensees from 1,148 to 1,035. NRC estimates the
number of NRC and Agreement State medical use licensees decreased
from 8,610 to 7,659. Further, the types of medical uses retained by
NRC licensees may not reflect the Agreement State licensees'
distribution of these medical uses. In addition, there was a
decrease in the overall hourly fee rate from $274/hr to
$272/hr.
