II. Background
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35), the NRC is requesting
public comment on its intention to
request the OMB’s approval for the
information collection summarized as
follows.
1. The title of the information
collection: Collection of Research Code
Non-Disclosure Agreement Information.
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0240.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable:
Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: The collection is required
every time an NRC developed code is
requested by users.
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: Users of the code from
domestic and foreign licensees,
universities, corporations, and members
of the public, as well as foreign
technical support organizations.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 962.
8. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 962.
9. The estimated number of hours
needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or
request: 962.
10. Abstract: This information
collection request is a non-disclosure
agreement (NDA) used for domestic and
foreign entities to obtain and use the
NRC’s nuclear safety analytical
computer codes. NRC develops and uses
computer codes to independently model
and evaluate safety issues associated
with the licensed use of radioactive
materials. As a global leader in nuclear
regulatory research and safety
assessment, NRC is frequently
approached by domestic and
international organizations requesting
copies of NRC computer codes. In
general, to obtain an NRC code an

PO 00000

Frm 00124

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

individual or organization first agrees to
not redistribute the code (i.e., nondisclosure) through an NDA. The NDA
also imposes terms and conditions for
code use, and requires notification to
NRC of code errors, code modifications,
and updated user information. An
officially signed and executed NDA of
users agreeing to the terms and
conditions is current NRC practice for
access to NRC-developed computer
codes. Once the NDA has been signed,
received, reviewed, and accepted, the
requesting individual or organization is
given access to the requested code. The
information collection enables the NRC
to ensure that proper procedures and
agreements are in place to guide the
distribution and use of these codes
according to NRC and U.S. Government
policies and international agreements
such as import-export restrictions and
intellectual property rights. Further
information collection on code errors
and modifications by code users permits
NRC to maintain control and quality of
its codes in a timely and efficient
manner.
III. Specific Requests for Comments
The NRC is seeking comments that
address the following questions:
1. Is the proposed collection of
information necessary for the NRC to
properly perform its functions? Does the
information have practical utility?
Please explain your answer.
2. Is the estimate of the burden of the
information collection accurate? Please
explain your answer.
3. Is there a way to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected?
4. How can the burden of the
information collection on respondents
be minimized, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology?

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
664, ‘‘General Licensee Registration.’’
The NRC hereby informs potential
respondents that an agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and that a person is

PO 00000

Frm 00125

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
June 13, 2025, 90 FR 25088.
1. The title of the information
collection: NRC Form 664, General
Licensee Registration.
2. OMB approval number: 3150–0198.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable:
NRC Form 664.
5. How often the collection is required
or requested: Annually.
6. Who will be required or asked to
respond: General licensees who possess
registerable quantities of byproduct
material.
7. The estimated number of annual
responses: 425.
8. The estimated number of annual
respondents: 425.
9. The estimated number of hours
needed annually to comply with the
information collection requirement or
request: 142.
10. Abstract: NRC Form 664 is used
by NRC general licensees to make
reports regarding certain generally
licensed devices subject to annual
registration. The registration program
allows NRC to better track general
licensees, so that they can be contacted
or inspected as necessary, and to make
sure that generally licensed devices can
be identified even if lost or damaged.
Also, the registration program ensures
that general licensees are aware of and
understand the requirements for the
possession, use, and disposal of devices
containing byproduct material. Greater
awareness helps to ensure that general
licensees will comply with the
regulatory requirements for proper
handling and disposal of generally
licensed devices and would reduce the
potential for incidents that could result
in unnecessary radiation exposure to the
public and contamination of property.
Dated: November 24, 2025.

Chief Information Officer.
