Part 37 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), contains security requirements for the use of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material. Licensees are required to: (1) Develop procedures for implementation of the security provisions; (2) develop a security plan that describes how security is being implemented; (3) conduct training on the procedures and security plan; (4) conduct background investigations for those individuals permitted access to category 1 or category 2 quantities of radioactive material; (5) coordinate with LLEAs so the LLEAs would be better prepared to respond in an emergency; (6) conduct preplanning and coordination activities before shipping radioactive material; and (7) implement security measures for the protection of the radioactive material. Licensees are required to promptly report any attempted or actual theft or diversion of the radioactive material. Licensees are required to keep copies of the security plan, procedures, background investigation records, training records, and documentation that certain activities have occurred. The NRC uses the information required by 10 CFR part 37 to fulfill it responsibilities to respond to, investigate, and correct situations that adversely affect public health and safety or the common defense and security.

The previous burden for this collection was 139,109.1 hours and 83,796 responses. The burden is expected to change to 138,570.2 hours and 103,983 responses (a decrease of 539 hours and an increase of 20,187 responses). The estimated burden has changed for the following reasons: • The number of overall licensees required to comply with Part 37 requirements has increased from the previous estimate (from 1,400 licensees to 1,500 licensees). This reflects the current estimate of licensees and takes into account licensees with aggregated material that is comparable to category 1 and category 2 quantities. With a greater number of licensees, there are a greater number of annual responses than the previous estimate. In particular, the number of responses associated with pre-planning and coordination of Category 2 shipping with receiving licensee (37.75(b)) and notification of shipping licensee upon receipt on Category 2 shipments (37.75(c)) increased by a total of 19,500 responses due to the increase in the number of estimated respondents. • Now that NRC licensees have implemented the one-time reporting and record keeping requirements, this burden no longer applies to NRC licensees. However, one-time reporting and record keeping requirements still apply to Agreement State licensees with later implementation periods, for Part 37 compatible regulations, as well as to new licensees that have not previously met this requirement (total estimate around 1,200 licensees). Because a large pool of licensees have completed some of the more time consuming one-time reporting requirements, the total burden for Part 37 has decreased.
