Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Notice of pending NRC action to submit an information 
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and 
solicitation of public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The NRC invites public comment about our intention to request 
the OMB's approval for renewal of an existing information collection 
that is summarized below. We are required to publish this notice in the 
Federal Register under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Information pertaining to the requirement to be submitted:
    1. The title of the information collection: ``DOE/NRC Form 741 
(Nuclear Material Transaction Report) and Associated Instructions 
(NUREG/BR-0006)''
    2. Current OMB approval number: 3150-0003.
    3. How often the collection is required: Form 741 is submitted when 
specified events occur (nuclear material or source material transfers, 
receipts, or inventory changes).
    4. Who is required or asked to report: Persons licensed to possess 
specified quantities of special nuclear material or source material. 
Any licensee who ships, receives, or otherwise undergoes an inventory 
change of special nuclear or source material is required to submit a 
Form 741 to document the change.
    5. The number of annual respondents: For DOE/NRC Form 741, there 
are approximately 400 respondents annually.
    6. The number of hours needed annually to complete the requirement 
or request: 20,616 hours.
    7. Abstract: NRC is required to collect nuclear material 
transaction information for domestic safeguards use and to make it 
available to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Licensees 
use Form 741 to make inventory and accounting reports for certain 
source or special nuclear material, or for transfer or receipt of 1 
kilogram or more of source material. This form enables NRC to collect, 
retrieve, analyze, and submit the data to IAEA to fulfill its reporting 
responsibilities.
    Submit, by January 28, 2011, 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?
    2. Is the burden estimate accurate?
    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 be minimized, 
including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology?
