Part 40 of 10 CFR establishes requirements for the receipt, possession, use, and transfer of radioactive source and byproduct materials. Section 40.25 established a general license authorizing the use of depleted uranium contained in industrial products or devices for the purpose of providing a concentrated mass in a small volume of the product or device. The NRC Form 244 is used to report the receipt and transfer of depleted uranium, as required by § 40.25. The registration information required by the NRC Form 244 enables the NRC to make a determination on whether the possession, use, or transfer of depleted uranium source and byproduct material is in conformance with the NRCâs regulations for the protection of public health and safety.
Reasons for Change in Burden
The number of registration certificates submitted by NRC licensees has decreased from 4 certificates to 1.3 certificates, a decrease of approximately 2.7 hours (2.7 certificates x 1 hour per certificate = 2.7 hours). The number of registration certificates submitted by Agreement State licensees has been estimated to have decreased from 19 to 8.1, a decrease of approximately 10.9 hours (10.9 certificates x 1 hour per certificate = 10.9 hours).
The overall burden for this renewal has decreased due to a decrease in the number of forms received over the past 3 years. The decrease in form submissions may be attributed to natural fluctuations in the needs of NRC and Agreement State licensees and license applicants from year-to-year.
The change in cost also reflects a decrease in the annual labor cost for material licensees from $274 to $268 per hour.
