The NRC is required to collect nuclear
material transaction information for domestic safeguards use and
make it available to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Licensees use DOE/NRC Form 742 to report the material balance
within 30 days after the start of a physical inventory of nuclear
materials actually present at licensee's facilities, including the
quantities of foreign obligated source material. Licensees use
DOE/NRC Form 742C to report the material status based on a physical
inventory of nuclear materials actually present at licensee's
facilities. These forms enable the NRC to collect, retrieve,
analyze, and submit the data to IAEA to fulfill its reporting
responsibilities.
There has been a reduction in
the burden for this collection by 40 hours from 1,480 to 1,440
hours. Changes in the nuclear industry has resulted approximately
20 small licensees have either ceased operations or removed their
nuclear material holdings therefore eliminating their reporting
needs. However, there has been an increase in the hourly rate from
$259/hour to $272/hour, increasing the overall financial burden to
industry by $8,360 from $383,320 to $391,680.
