Abstract:
NRC regulation require NRC regulations require licensees to report incidents and events involving the use of radioactive by-product material, and source material, such as those involving a radiation over-exposure, leaking or contaminated sealed source(s), release of excessive contamination of radioactive material, lost or stolen radioactive material, equipment failures, and abandoned well logging sources. NRC is requesting that the Agreement States provide information on the initial notification, response actions, and follow-up investigations on all events involving the use of nuclear materials regulated pursuant to the AEA. The event information should be provided in a uniform electronic format, for assessment and identification of any facilities/site specific or generic safety concerns that could have the potential to impact public health and safety. The identification and review of safety concerns may result in lessons learned, and may also identify generic issues for further study which could result in proposals for changes or revisions to technical or regulatory designs, processes, standards, guidance or requirements. Reporting is on a monthly basis except for significant events which must be reported within 24 hours because of safety or health concerns.

Short Statement:
The overall burden hours for the Agreement States has decreased by 484 hours from 1,240 to 756. The 756 burden hours are based on an annual average of the number of reported events and associated event updates, as reported by the NMED contractor for fiscal years 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 and the increase of two Agreement States. The time required to respond to the information collection has been re-estimated and decreased from 2.0 hours to 1.0 hour based on increased Agreement State operational familiarity with the NMED software; decreased time associated with evaluating response activities and requests for Federal assistance; and increased familiarity with reporting requirements. This decrease in burden hours is based on information gathered from Agreement States and the NMED contractor responsible for data sorting, data entry, record review for completeness of information, and request from Agreement States for additional information, as necessary.
