Abstract: 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. The collection is being revised to include the approximate 25 additional licensees required to report pursuant to the U.S.-IAEA Caribbean Territories Safeguards Agreement, INFCIRC/366.
