September 30 of each year or with the licensee's material status reports 
on special nuclear material filed under part 72 or 74, a statement of 
its source material inventory with foreign obligations as defined in 
this part. This statement must be submitted to the address specified in 
the reporting instructions (NUREG/BR-0007), and include the Reporting 
Identification Symbol (RIS) assigned by the Commission to the licensee. 
Copies of the reporting instructions may be obtained either by writing 
to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Division of Nuclear Security, 
Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response, Washington, DC 20555-

telephone, at the numbers listed in appendix A of part 73 of this 
chapter, of any incident in which an attempt has been made or is 
believed to have been made to commit a theft or unlawful diversion of 
more than 6.8 kilograms (kg) [15 pounds] of such material at any one 
time or more than 68 kg [150 pounds] of such material in any one 
calendar year.
    (2) The licensee shall notify the NRC as soon as possible, but 
within 4 hours, of discovery of any incident in which an attempt has 
been made or is believed to have been made to commit a theft or unlawful 
diversion of such material. A copy of the written followup notification 
should also be made to the Director, Division of Nuclear Security, 
Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response, by an appropriate 
method listed in Sec. 40.5.
    (3) The initial notification shall be followed within a period of 
sixty (60) days by a written followup notification submitted in 
accordance with Sec. 40.5. A copy of the written followup notification 
shall also be sent to: ATTN: Document Control Desk, Director, Division 
of Nuclear Security, Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response, 
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001.
    (4) Subsequent to the submission of the written followup 
notification required by this paragraph, the licensee shall promptly 
update the written followup notification, in accordance with this 
paragraph, with any substantive additional information, which becomes 
available to the licensee, concerning an attempted or apparent theft or 
unlawful diversion of source material.
    (d) The reports described in paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this 
section are not required for:
    (1) Processed ores containing less than five (5) percent of uranium 
or thorium, or any combination of uranium or thorium, by dry weight;
    (2) Thorium contained in magnesium-thorium and tungsten-thorium 
alloys, if the thorium content in the alloys does not exceed 4 percent 
by weight;
    (3) Chemical catalysts containing uranium depleted in the U-235 
isotope to 0.4 percent or less, if the uranium content of the catalyst 
does not exceed 15 percent by weight; or
    (4) Any source material contained in non-nuclear end use devices or 
components, including but not limited to permanently installed
