Any Agreement State licensee who
engages in the use of radioactive material in non-Agreement States,
areas of exclusive Federal jurisdiction, or offshore waters, under
the general license in Section 150.20, is required to file, with
the NRC regional administrator for the region in which the
Agreement State that issues the license is located, a copy of NRC
Form 241 (Report of Proposed Activities in Non-Agreement States,
Areas of Exclusive Federal Jurisdiction, or Offshore Waters), a
copy of its Agreement State specific license, and the appropriate
fee as prescribed in Section 170.31 at least 3 days before engaging
in such activity. This mandatory notification permits NRC to
schedule inspections of the activities to determine whether the
activities are being conducted in accordance with requirements for
protection of the public health and safety.
The NRC reviewed the actual
number of responses received during the last 3 years and found that
the number of forms submitted was lower than previously estimated.
An average of 2,188 forms were filed annually, rather than the
previous estimate of 3,963 forms, an overall reduction of 1,775
forms. The number of initial submissions decreased from 167 to 140
(a reduction of 27 forms and 14 hours); the number of revisions
decreased from 600 to 412 (a reduction of 188 forms and 47 hours);
and the number of clarifications decreased from 3,196 to 1,636 (a
reduction of 1,560 forms and 390 hours). As a result of the
reduction in the estimated number of forms filed annually, the
overall burden estimate has decreased from 1,033 to 582 hours, a
net reduction of 451 hours.
