Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 237 / Tuesday, December 11, 2018 / Notices
Council’s Subcommittee on Quantum
Information Science ‘‘National Strategic
Overview for Quantum Information
Science’’ (hereafter ‘‘Strategic
Overview’’) was released in September
2018. This document calls upon
agencies to develop plans to address six
key policy areas to enable continued
American leadership in quantum
information science. On behalf of
Federal agencies the NSTC
Subcommittee on Quantum Information
Science seeks public input to inform the
subcommittee as the Government
develops potential means of addressing
the specific policy recommendations
included in the ‘‘Strategic Overview’’.
Responders are asked to answer one or
more of the following questions:
1. What specific actions could the US
Government take that would contribute
best to implementing the policy
recommendations in the Strategic
Overview? What challenges, not listed
in section 3, should also be taken into
account in implementation of the
Strategic Overview recommendations?
2. What are the scientific and
technological challenges that, with
substantial resources and focus over the
next ten years, will transform the QIS
research and development landscape?
3. Regarding industrial engagement,
what roles can the U.S. Government
play in enabling the innovation
ecosystem around QIS-related
technologies? Are there critical barriers
for industrial innovation in this space?
How can these barriers be addressed?
What role can the U.S. Government play
in mitigating early or premature
investment risks?
4. How can the U.S. Government
engage with academia and other
workforce development programs and
stakeholders to appropriately train and
maintain researchers in QIS while
expanding the size and scope of the
‘quantum-smart’ workforce?
5. What existing infrastructure should
be leveraged, and what new
infrastructure could be considered, to
foster future breakthroughs in QIS
research and development?
6. What other activities/partnerships
could the U.S. Government use to
engage with stakeholders to ensure
America’s prosperity and economic
growth through QIS research and
development?
7. How can the United States continue
to attract and retain the best domestic
and international talent and expertise in
QIS?
8. How can the United States ensure
that US researchers in QIS have access
to cutting-edge international
technologies, research facilities, and
knowledge?

II. Background
Under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently
submitted a request for renewal of an
existing collection of information to
OMB for review entitled, ‘‘NRC Form
748, National Source Tracking
Transaction Report.’’ The NRC hereby
informs potential respondents that an
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and
that a person is not required to respond
to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
The NRC published a Federal
Register notice with a 60-day comment
period on this information collection on
August 1, 2018, 83 FR 37535.
1. The title of the information
collection: NRC Form 748, National
Source Tracking Transaction Report.
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0202.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number if applicable:
NRC Form 748.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: On occasion (at
completion of a transaction, and at
inventory reconciliation).
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: Licensees that manufacture,
receive, transfer, disassemble, or
dispose of nationally tracked sources.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 18,927 (13,200 online + 480
batch upload + 5,247 NRC Form 748).
8. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 1,400 (260 NRC Licensees
+ 1,140 Agreement State Licensees).
9. An estimate of the total number of
hours needed annually to comply with
the information collection requirement
or request: 1,963.1 hours.
10. Abstract: In 2006, the NRC
amended its regulations to implement a
National Source Tracking System
(NSTS) for certain sealed sources. The
amendments require licensees to report
certain transactions involving nationally
tracked sources to the NSTS. These
transactions include manufacture,
transfer, receipt, disassembly, or
disposal of the nationally tracked
source. This information collection is
mandatory and is used to populate the
NSTS. National source tracking is part
of a comprehensive radioactive source
control program for radioactive
materials of greatest concern. The NRC
and Agreement States use the
information provided by licensees in the
NSTS to track the life cycle of the
nationally tracked source from
manufacture until disposal. NSTS
enhances the ability of NRC and
Agreement States to conduct
inspections and investigations,

government agencies, and verify

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 6th day
of December 2018.
