10 CFR part 75, requires selected
licensees to provide reports of nuclear material inventory and flow
for selected facilities under the US/IAEA Safeguards Agreement,
permit inspections by IAEA inspectors, complementary access of IAEA
inspectors under the Additional Protocol, give immediate notice to
the NRC in specified situations involving the possibility of loss
of nuclear material, and give notice for imports and exports of
specified amounts of nuclear material. In addition, this collection
is being renewed to include approximately 6 entities subject to the
U.S.–IAEA Caribbean Territories Safeguards Agreement (INFCIRC/366).
These licensees will provide reports of nuclear material inventory
and flow for entities under the U.S.–IAEA Caribbean Territories
Safeguards Agreement (INFCIRC/366), permit inspections by IAEA
inspectors, give immediate notice to the NRC in specified
situations involving the possibility of loss of nuclear material,
and give notice for imports and exports of specified amounts of
nuclear material. These licensees will also follow written material
accounting and control procedures, although actual reporting of
transfer and material balance records to the IAEA will be done
through the U.S. State system (Nuclear Materials Management and
Safeguards System, collected under OMB clearance numbers 3150–0003,
3150–0004, 3150–0057, and 3150–0058). The NRC needs this
information to implement its responsibilities under the US/IAEA
agreement.
The overall estimated burden
decreased by 993 hours from 4,227 to 3,234 due to a decrease in the
number of licensees. The overall cost has increased as a result of
an increase in the NRC’s fee recovery rate from $278 per hour to
$288 per hour. The number of responses decreased primarily due to:
1. The number of licensees that are required under 10 CFR 75 who
are defined to be facilities under 10 CFR 75.4 and specified on the
US eligible list as determined by the Secretary of State, went down
for various administrative reasons (e.g., decommissioned, license
suspension, project shutdown). However, the number of selected
facilities required to report remains the same; 4. 2. The number of
licensees that are required to report information and maintain
records under the US-IAEA Caribbean Territories Safeguards
Agreement (INFCIRC/366) and its Small Quantities Protocol went down
after further inspections of licensees in the Caribbean
Territories.
