Abstract: FINAL RULE - 10 CFR PARTS 30, 40, 70, 170, and 171. DISTRIBUTION OF SOURCE MATERIAL TO EXEMPT PERSONS AND TO GENERAL LICENSEES AND REVISION OF GENERAL LICENSE AND EXEMPTIONS. The NRC is amending its regulations in 10 CFR Part 40 to establish new requirements for distributors of source material to persons exempt from the regulations or for use under a general license in § 40.22. In addition, the rule modifies the existing possession and use requirements for § 40.22 general licensees to align the requirements with current health and safety standards. Finally, the rule revises, clarifies, or deletes certain exemptions in § 40.13(c) to make the exemptions more risk informed. Conforming changes will be made to 10 CFR Parts 30, 70, 170 and 171. These changes would affect manufacturers and distributors of products and materials containing source material and future users of some products used under exemptions from licensing and under the § 40.22 general license. The changes result in an increase in burden under 10 CFR Parts 19, 20, and 40, as well as additional reporting burden on NRC Form 313, Application for Materials License. NOTE: This rule affects four clearances: 10 CFR 40 (submitted as a request for a new clearance number), 10 CFR 19 (3150-0044), 10 CFR 20 (3150-0014), and NRC Form 313 (3150-0120).

Short Statement: This rule affects manufacturers and distributors of certain products and materials containing source material, persons using source material under general license in Section 40.22, and persons possessing source material under certain exemptions from licensing in Section 40.13. The rulemaking will result in a small increase in the number of persons required to be specifically licensed under 10 CFR Part 40 who are currently general licensees and thus those persons will be newly subject to 10 Parts 19 and 20. An additional 18 licensees are estimated to be subject to Part 20, resulting in an additional burden of 255 hours for 10 CFR 20.
