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, ``NRC 
Form 314, Certification of Disposition of 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 July 19, 2016 (81 FR 46972).
    1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 314 
Certification of Disposition of Material.
    2. OMB approval number: 3150-0028.
    3. Type of submission: Extension.
    4. The form number if applicable: NRC Form 314.
    5. How often the collection is required or requested: NRC Form 314 
is submitted by materials licensee who wishes to terminate its license. 
The form provides information needed by the NRC to determine whether 
the licensee has radioactive materials on hand which must be 
transferred or otherwise disposed of prior to expiration or termination 
of the license.
    6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Respondents are firms, 
institutions, and individual holding NRC licenses to possess and use 
radioactive materials who do not wish who do not wish to renew those 
licenses.
    7. The estimated number of annual responses: 136 responses.
    8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 136 respondents.
    9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to 
comply with the information collection requirement or request: Each 
form requires, on average, approximately 0.5 hours to prepare. 136 x 
0.5 hour = a total annual burden for all respondents of 68 hours.
    10. Abstract: The NRC Form 314 furnishes information to the NRC 
regarding transfer or other disposition of radioactive material by 
licensees who wish to terminate their licenses. The information is used 
by the 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.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 19th day of December 2016.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

NRC Clearance Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
