NRC form 314 furnishes information to NRC regarding transfer or other disposition of radioactive material by licensees who wish to terminate their licenses. The information is used by NRC as part of the basis for its determination that the facility has been cleared of radioactive material before the facility is released for unrestricted use.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) amended its regulations to include jurisdiction over discrete sources of radium-226, accelerator-produced radioactive materials, and discrete sources of naturally occurring radioactive material, as required by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct), which was signed into law on August 8, 2005. This provides a regulatory framework by which to license and regulate byproduct material in accordance with the new, expanded definition. The amended regulations impacted numerous existing information collections. The NRC packaged all of the impacted information collections into one new information collection which OMB approved and assigned control number 3150-0203.
The clearance affecting this 83-C is NRC Form 314, ÂCertificate of Disposition of Materials, which is currently covered OMB Clearance 3150-0028. This form is used by materials licensees who wish to terminate their license.
The purpose of this 83-C is to transfer burden from OMB Clearance 3150-0203, Â10 CFR Parts 20, 30, 31, 32, & 35, Requirements for Expanded Definition of Byproduct Material, Final Rule and NRC Forms 4, 5, 313, 314 & 664, to OMB Clearance 3150-0028, ÂCertificate of Disposition of Materials, which was contained in the final rule approved 8/23/07. NRC Form 314 is used by materials licensees who wish to terminate their license. Once the entire burden for 3150-0203 has been transferred to the correct clearances, we will submit an 83-D to discontinue 3150-0203. A total of 1 hour will be transferred to 3150-0028, resulting in a revised burden of 87 hours.
