II. Background

    Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of 
an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, 10 
CFR part 71, ``Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Material.'' 
The NRC hereby informs potential respondents that an agency may not 
conduct or sponsor, and that a person is not required to respond to, a 
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB 
control number.
    The NRC published a Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment 
period on this information collection on October 6, 2015 (80 FR 60412).
    1. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR part 71, 
Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Material.
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0008.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion. 
Application for package certification may be made at any time. Required 
reports are collected and evaluated on a continuous basis as events 
occur.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: All NRC specific 
licensees who place byproduct, source, or special nuclear material into 
transportation, and all persons who wish to apply for NRC approval of 
package designs for use in such transportation.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 660.1 responses.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 250 respondents.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: 25,593.9 
hours (20,807.6 hours reporting + 4655 hours recordkeeping + 131.3 
hours third-party disclosure).
    10. Abstract: NRC regulations in 10 CFR part 71 establish 
requirements for packaging, preparation for shipment, and 
transportation of licensed material, and prescribe procedures, 
standards, and requirements for approval by NRC of packaging and 
shipping procedures for fissile material and for quantities of licensed 
material in excess of Type A quantities. The NRC collects information 
pertinent to 10 CFR part 71 for three reasons: To issue a package 
approval; to ensure that any incidents or package degradation or defect 
are appropriately captured, evaluated and if

necessary, corrected to minimize future potential occurrences; and to 
ensure that all activities are completed using an NRC-approved quality 
assurance program.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 18th day of February 2016.
    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Acting, NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
