NRC regulations require NRC licensees to report incidents and over exposures, leaking or contaminated sealed source(s), release of excessive contamination of radioactive material, lost or stolen radioactive material, equipment failures, abandoned well logging sources and medical events. Agreement State licenses are also required to report these events to their individual Agreement State regulatory authorities under compatible Agreement State regulations. The NRC is requesting that the Agreement States provide information to NRC on the initial notification, response actions, and follow-up investigations on events involving the use (including suspected theft or terrorist activities) of nuclear materials regulated pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act. The event information should be provided in a uniform electronic format, for assessment and identification of any facilities/site specific or generic safety concerns that could have the potential to impact public health and safety. The identification and review of safety concerns may result in lessons learned, and may also identify generic issues for further study which could result in proposals for changes or revisions to technical or regulatory designs, processes, standards, guidance or requirements.
The number of estimated responses (reported events) has decreased from 452 to 450, based on a decrease in the number of events reported over the most recent 3-year period, compared to the previous 3-year period.
The overall burden hours for the Agreement States have decreased from 723 to 720, based on a decrease in the number of events reported over the most recent 3-year period, compared to the previous 3-year period.
The estimated costs have increased due to an increase in the fee rate from $288 per hour to $317 per hour.
