1 INTRODUCTION 9

10 The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) 11 jointly sponsor the Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards System (NMMSS). This 12 system is the U.S. Governments national database used by DOE and the NRC for tracking 13 certain nuclear material.

14 15 Common reporting forms and formats are used to minimize the reporting burden on licensees1 16 that are required to provide nuclear material data to one or both agencies in accordance with 17 current regulations or contractual obligations. In this manner, licensees can file one report to 18 meet the reporting requirements of both the NRC and DOE. Compliance with specific reporting 19 requirements is monitored by the agency that requires the specific data. NRC regulations 20 require licensees to submit the reports in computer-readable form.

21 22 In addition to the physical inventory reporting requirements in Title 10 of the Code of Federal 23 Regulations (CFR) Part 74, Material Control and Accounting of Special Nuclear Material, as 24 discussed in Section 1.2, licensees may also be required to report to NMMSS all receipts, 25 transfers, and inventory adjustments of U.S. Government-owned, -loaned, or -leased material in 26 their possession that they obtained from DOE. In such cases, licensees shall file DOE/NRC 27 Form 742, Material Balance Report, and DOE/NRC Form 742C, Physical Inventory Listing, to 28 report quantities of 0.5 or greater of the reporting unit specified in DOE Series 470 orders (DOE 29 Order 470.4, Safeguards and Security Program, and DOE Order 474.2, Nuclear Material 30 Control and Accountability).

31 32 1.1 Material Status Reports 33 34 DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C are the means for submitting reports of material balance and 35 physical inventory listing data to NMMSS. The information must be completed in accordance 36 with the instructions in this NUREG and must be submitted in computer-readable format.

37 NMMSS Report D-24, Personal Computer Data Input for NRC Licensees, issued January 1, 38 2012, provides the instructions for creating the computer-readable submittal.

39 40 Licensees use DOE/NRC Form 742 to report a summary of activity for a specified material 41 within a material balance reporting period, as specified in 10 CFR 74.13, Material Status 42 1

The term licensee here denotes an NRC or Agreement State licensee or an NRC certificate holder or possessor.

NUREG/BR-0007, Rev. 8 2

Reports. The report conveys beginning and ending inventory balances; activities such 1

asshipments and receipts involving other facilities; and decay, transmutation, and production 2

calculations. This information is useful for validating a facilitys ending book inventory.

3 Licensees that neither received nor transferred source or special nuclear material (SNM) within 4

a reporting period should still refer to instructions in NUREG/BR-0006, Instructions for 5

Completing Nuclear Material Transaction Reports, to submit a DOE/NRC Form 741, Nuclear 6

Materials Transaction Report, to NMMSS to report other transactions that would otherwise 7

change the inventory balance within the material balance period.

8 9

Licensees use DOE/NRC Form 742C to report a facilitys physical inventory listing as of a 10 specified date. For each material type category, the report lists the amount of material in the 11 facilitys possession at the time of the inventory process. The form can show each individual 12 batch or summarize totals of like batches. The totals for each material type category must 13 match the ending balance in the corresponding material balance report (DOE/NRC Form 742).

14 15 NMMSS relies heavily on the quality of the data reported by the facilities involved in nuclear 16 activities. The data submitted to NMMSS are subject to evaluation according to the restrictions 17 placed on nuclear activity by the policies of various governing agencies of the United States.

18 NMMSS receives the data after they are verified by edit checks as acceptable within the 19 restrictions of the system.

20 21 1.2 Regulations 22 23 NRC regulations in 10 CFR Part 74.13 requires each licensee who possessed special nuclear 24 material during a material balance reporting period in a quantity totaling 1 gram or more of 25 contained uranium (U)-235, U-233, or plutonium (Pu) to prepare and submit in computer-26 readable format Material Balance Reports (DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C) concerning SNM 27 received, produced, possessed, transferred, consumed, disposed of, or lost. Reporting periods 28 are determined by the quantity of material possessed by the facility. Specifically, 29 Licensees subject to the requirements of 10 CFR 74.51 shall compile a report as of 30 March 31 and September 30 of each year, and file the report within 30 days after the 31 end of the period covered by the report.

32 Licensees subject to the requirements of 10 CFR Parts 74.19(c)(5), 74.33(c)(4), or 33 74.43(c)(6) shall submit a report within 60 calendar days of the beginning of the physical 34 inventory.

35 Licensees reporting pursuant to 10 CFR 75.35 shall prepare and submit material status 36 reports as described in Section 3.2 of this NUREG.

37 All other licensees, including those subject to 10 CFR 150.17 shall submit a report no 38 later than March 31 of each year.

39 40 Licensees shall complete a separate DOE/NRC Form 742 and 742C for each material type of 41 SNM and source material for which a reportable quantity is possessed or a reportable inventory 42 change has occurred during the material balance period. For SNM, reportable quantities are 43 defined as 1 gram or more; for source material, the reportable quantity is 1 kilogram or more.

44 For reporting purposes, quantities of 0.5 or more are to be rounded up to the next whole unit. A 45 complete listing of material types is provided in Section 2 of this NUREG.

46

3 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 In addition, NRC regulations in 10 CFR 40.64 require each licensee that possesses, or that had 1

possessed in the previous reporting period, 1 kilogram or more of uranium or 1 kilogram or more 2

of thorium source material pursuant to the operation of enrichment services, downblending 3

uranium that has an initial enrichment of the U-235 isotope of 10 percent or more, or the 4

fabrication of mixed-oxide fuels shall complete and submit DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C for 5

all activities involving the source material.

6 7

Furthermore, NRC regulations in 10 CFR 40.64(b)(1) require each Federal or State licensee 8

that possessed during a reporting period 1 kilogram or more of foreign obligated source material 9

(material types 10, 81, and 88) to must submit a statement of foreign obligated source material 10 inventory to the NRC. The regulation allows DOE/NRC Form 742 to be used. The reporting 11 period is October 1 to September 30 of each year (unless the NRC authorizes an alternate 12 period).

13 14 Each licensee required to report material balance, inventory, and/or foreign obligation 15 information, as detailed in this part, shall resolve any discrepancies identified during the report 16 review and reconciliation process within 30 calendar days of notification of a discrepancy 17 identified by the NRC. See section 1.5 of this NUREG for additional instructions on 18 reconciliation.

19 20 Possessor of DOE-owned material shall refer to DOE Order 470.4B and DOE Order 474.2 for 21 additional information about reporting inventories.

22 23 1.3 Preparation and Submission of DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C in 24 Computer-Readable Format 25 26 NMMSS Report D-24 provides instructions for preparing DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C in 27 computer-readable format as required for submittal. The Safeguards Management Software 28 (SAMS) program is a facsimile of NMMSS that allows the user to import and export data; do 29 edit checks to complete a quality review; generate various reports; and create material 30 balance, inventory, and transaction data. It has the capability to export data into the required 31 NMMSS predefined computer-readable format outlined in NMMSS Report D-24. The SAMS 32 program may be obtained from NMMSS staff free of charge.

33 34 Licensees can submit data to NMMSS through the following two methods:

35 36 (1)

Electronic Data Submission 37 38 Licensees should submit DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C in computer-readable format 39 unless reporting under 10 CFR 40.64(b). NMMSS Report D-24 provides instructions on 40 packaging, data format requirements, acceptable media types, and the mailing address 41 for the submittal of data on computer media.

42 43 Licensees can request a copy of the fillable forms installer kit by e-mailing NMMSS at 44 nmmss@nnsa.doe.gov. These forms can be completed, saved at the licensee site, and 45 submitted to NMMSS at the aforementioned e-mail address. Licensees may also 46

NUREG/BR-0007, Rev. 8 4

contact the NRC program manager for questions about fillable forms and electronic data 1

submission by e-mailing the NRC e-mail resource at nmmss.resource@nrc.gov.

2 3

Licensees should adhere to their facilitys encryption policy for transmitting electronic 4

data to NMMSS.

5 6

Licensees may also download data onto electronic media and mail the data to NMMSS.

7 Contact NMMSS staff to confirm the mailing address before submitting mail.

8 9

(2)

New or Modified Methods of Transferring Electronic Data 10 11 The NRC may authorize new or modified methods of transferring electronic DOE/NRC 12 Form 742 and 742C data to NMMSS. Licensees may confirm authorization to use 13 additional methods for the transfer of these data by contacting NMMSS staff.

14 15 1.4 Documentation and Distribution 16 17 Licensees must submit the completed DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C to NMMSS in a timely 18 manner. Before licensees submit any data, they should determine whether their submission 19 contains classified information because the specific documentation and distribution instructions 20 depend on whether the completed DOE/NRC Form 742 or 742C contains classified or 21 unclassified information.

22 23 Any DOE/NRC Form 742 or 742C that is classified must be documented and handled in 24 accordance with all pertinent security requirements. All other submissions that are not classified 25 are considered to be proprietary material control and accounting information, and licensees may 26 request that such information be withheld as defined by 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, 27 Exemptions, Requests for Withholding. Each person who is to receive a copy of the report 28 must be verified as a qualified recipient before distribution. Licensees should confirm the 29 address before sending documents to NMMSS or other recipients. In addition, they should 30 formally provide classification guidance to NMMSS after making a decision to classify or 31 declassify a submission or to change previously submitted guidance. When submitting 32 safeguards information, licensees should also submit DOE/NRC Form 740M, Concise Note, 33 and state that the submission is safeguards information and should be handled in accordance 34 with 10 CFR 73.21, Protection of Safeguards Information: Performance Requirements.

35 36 Licensees should do the following when distributing the completed report:

37 38 Submit one copy of the completed report and all supporting subschedules and lists to 39 NMMSS. All RIS holders are encouraged to review their RIS point-of-contact 40 information yearly and notify NMMSS that the data are correct or make changes.

41 42 Retain one copy for licensee files.

43 44 1.5 Reconciliation 45 46 At the end of every material balance reporting period, a reconciliation shall be performed 47 between reports submitted by the licensee to NMMSS and the projected book inventory that 48

5 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 1

NMMSS has calculated. This process shall be considered complete when the licensee resolves 2

any differences between the reported and projected balances, including those listed for 3

foreign-obligated materials.2 The reconciliation should be completed within 30 calendar days of 4

when the licensee was notified of the discrepancy, and it should include all accounts, including 5

holding accounts, held by the licensee.

6 7

Facilities should ensure that their reported weight totals in DOE/NRC Form 742C equal the 8

weight totals in DOE/NRC Form 742 for each material type. The totals in DOE/NRC Form 742C 9

should be an arithmetic sum of the weights listed on the batch data lines of DOE/NRC 10 Form 742C. The totals on DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C should agree with the values 11 maintained and used at the site. However, if reported DOE/NRC Form 742 and 742C values 12 differ from site-maintained values because of issues such as rounding, the site should submit a 13 concise note (DOE/NRC Form 740M) explaining the difference.

14 2

Commercial practices allow a facility to conduct an obligations exchange to meet a contractual requirement.

Obligation exchanges are not meant to circumvent U.S. international agreements for peaceful use and nuclear cooperation with trading partners. Facilities should use special care to avoid a negative obligations balance. NMMSS may report a negative obligations balance for a facility at any given reporting date because of the time delay in reporting shipments versus receipt; however, NMMSS cannot reconcile a facility for a material balance period until the foreign obligations at the facility are balanced.

7 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 2 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING DOE/NRC FORM 742 REPORTS 1

2 Licensees should complete DOE/NRC Form 742 in accordance with the instructions in this 3

NUREG and in NMMSS Report D-24, as appropriate. NMMSS Report D-24 provides 4

instructions and examples for the preparation of required electronic submittals to NMMSS.

INVENTORY DIFFERENCEInventory difference is the difference between physical 27 inventory and book inventory after the book has been adjusted for all receipts and 28 removals. A negative entry reports a gain. A positive entry reports a loss.

29 30 Reactors should not report an inventory difference to NMMSS. At the time of physical 31 inventory, the value assigned to an SNM item (e.g., assembly, rod, fragment, sealed 32 container) should be recorded identically on both the book inventory and the physical 33 inventory. At a reactor, unlike at facilities that process SNM for some end use, 34 adjustments to the values assigned to items (representing factors such as nuclear loss, 35 decay, and production rounding) can be explained and should be reported as such.

13 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 2.2 Section B, Foreign Obligations 1

2 The total amount of obligated nuclear material in a facilitys inventory as of the end of the 3

reporting period must be accounted for by material type. It may not exceed the total amount of 4

physical inventory (i.e., a negative obligations balance). The NMMSS staff can provide 5

facilities with reports that calculate an obligations balance for an RIS code based on the balance 6

of transactions reported since the last reconciliation date. The NMMSS-calculated report may 7

indicate a negative obligations balance for a facility as a result of the delay in reporting 8

shipments versus receipts; however, NMMSS is not authorized to reconcile a facility for a 9

material balance period until the foreign obligations at the facility are balanced.

10 11 The following column entries are required:

12 13 1.

COUNTRY OF OBLIGATIONEnter the unique obligation code for each category of 14 nuclear material. Appendix C to this NUREG lists the codes. The current list of codes 15 can be obtained from NMMSS staff by sending a request to nmmss@nnsa.doe.gov.

1 INTRODUCTION 9

10 The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) 11 jointly sponsor the Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards System (NMMSS). This 12 system is the U.S. Governments national database used by DOE and the NRC for tracking 13 certain nuclear material.

14 15 Common reporting forms and formats are used to minimize the reporting burden on licensees1 16 that are required to provide nuclear material data to one or both agencies in accordance with 17 current regulations or contractual obligations. In this manner, licensees can file one report to 18 meet the reporting requirements of both the NRC and DOE. Compliance with specific reporting 19 requirements is monitored by the agency that requires the specific data. NRC regulations 20 require licensees to submit the reports in computer-readable form.

21 22 In addition to the physical inventory reporting requirements in Title 10 of the Code of Federal 23 Regulations (CFR) Part 74, Material Control and Accounting of Special Nuclear Material, as 24 discussed in Section 1.2, licensees may also be required to report to NMMSS all receipts, 25 transfers, and inventory adjustments of U.S. Government-owned, -loaned, or -leased material in 26 their possession that they obtained from DOE. In such cases, licensees shall file DOE/NRC 27 Form 742, Material Balance Report, and DOE/NRC Form 742C, Physical Inventory Listing, to 28 report quantities of 0.5 or greater of the reporting unit specified in DOE Series 470 orders (DOE 29 Order 470.4, Safeguards and Security Program, and DOE Order 474.2, Nuclear Material 30 Control and Accountability).

31 32 1.1 Material Status Reports 33 34 DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C are the means for submitting reports of material balance and 35 physical inventory listing data to NMMSS. The information must be completed in accordance 36 with the instructions in this NUREG and must be submitted in computer-readable format.

37 NMMSS Report D-24, Personal Computer Data Input for NRC Licensees, issued January 1, 38 2012, provides the instructions for creating the computer-readable submittal.

39 40 Licensees use DOE/NRC Form 742 to report a summary of activity for a specified material 41 within a material balance reporting period, as specified in 10 CFR 74.13, Material Status 42 1

The term licensee here denotes an NRC or Agreement State licensee or an NRC certificate holder or possessor.

NUREG/BR-0007, Rev. 8 2

Reports. The report conveys beginning and ending inventory balances; activities such 1

asshipments and receipts involving other facilities; and decay, transmutation, and production 2

calculations. This information is useful for validating a facilitys ending book inventory.

3 Licensees that neither received nor transferred source or special nuclear material (SNM) within 4

a reporting period should still refer to instructions in NUREG/BR-0006, Instructions for 5

Completing Nuclear Material Transaction Reports, to submit a DOE/NRC Form 741, Nuclear 6

Materials Transaction Report, to NMMSS to report other transactions that would otherwise 7

change the inventory balance within the material balance period.

8 9

Licensees use DOE/NRC Form 742C to report a facilitys physical inventory listing as of a 10 specified date. For each material type category, the report lists the amount of material in the 11 facilitys possession at the time of the inventory process. The form can show each individual 12 batch or summarize totals of like batches. The totals for each material type category must 13 match the ending balance in the corresponding material balance report (DOE/NRC Form 742).

14 15 NMMSS relies heavily on the quality of the data reported by the facilities involved in nuclear 16 activities. The data submitted to NMMSS are subject to evaluation according to the restrictions 17 placed on nuclear activity by the policies of various governing agencies of the United States.

18 NMMSS receives the data after they are verified by edit checks as acceptable within the 19 restrictions of the system.

20 21 1.2 Regulations 22 23 NRC regulations in 10 CFR Part 74.13 requires each licensee who possessed special nuclear 24 material during a material balance reporting period in a quantity totaling 1 gram or more of 25 contained uranium (U)-235, U-233, or plutonium (Pu) to prepare and submit in computer-26 readable format Material Balance Reports (DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C) concerning SNM 27 received, produced, possessed, transferred, consumed, disposed of, or lost. Reporting periods 28 are determined by the quantity of material possessed by the facility. Specifically, 29 Licensees subject to the requirements of 10 CFR 74.51 shall compile a report as of 30 March 31 and September 30 of each year, and file the report within 30 days after the 31 end of the period covered by the report.

32 Licensees subject to the requirements of 10 CFR Parts 74.19(c)(5), 74.33(c)(4), or 33 74.43(c)(6) shall submit a report within 60 calendar days of the beginning of the physical 34 inventory.

35 Licensees reporting pursuant to 10 CFR 75.35 shall prepare and submit material status 36 reports as described in Section 3.2 of this NUREG.

37 All other licensees, including those subject to 10 CFR 150.17 shall submit a report no 38 later than March 31 of each year.

39 40 Licensees shall complete a separate DOE/NRC Form 742 and 742C for each material type of 41 SNM and source material for which a reportable quantity is possessed or a reportable inventory 42 change has occurred during the material balance period. For SNM, reportable quantities are 43 defined as 1 gram or more; for source material, the reportable quantity is 1 kilogram or more.

44 For reporting purposes, quantities of 0.5 or more are to be rounded up to the next whole unit. A 45 complete listing of material types is provided in Section 2 of this NUREG.

46

3 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 In addition, NRC regulations in 10 CFR 40.64 require each licensee that possesses, or that had 1

possessed in the previous reporting period, 1 kilogram or more of uranium or 1 kilogram or more 2

of thorium source material pursuant to the operation of enrichment services, downblending 3

uranium that has an initial enrichment of the U-235 isotope of 10 percent or more, or the 4

fabrication of mixed-oxide fuels shall complete and submit DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C for 5

all activities involving the source material.

6 7

Furthermore, NRC regulations in 10 CFR 40.64(b)(1) require each Federal or State licensee 8

that possessed during a reporting period 1 kilogram or more of foreign obligated source material 9

(material types 10, 81, and 88) to must submit a statement of foreign obligated source material 10 inventory to the NRC. The regulation allows DOE/NRC Form 742 to be used. The reporting 11 period is October 1 to September 30 of each year (unless the NRC authorizes an alternate 12 period).

13 14 Each licensee required to report material balance, inventory, and/or foreign obligation 15 information, as detailed in this part, shall resolve any discrepancies identified during the report 16 review and reconciliation process within 30 calendar days of notification of a discrepancy 17 identified by the NRC. See section 1.5 of this NUREG for additional instructions on 18 reconciliation.

19 20 Possessor of DOE-owned material shall refer to DOE Order 470.4B and DOE Order 474.2 for 21 additional information about reporting inventories.

22 23 1.3 Preparation and Submission of DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C in 24 Computer-Readable Format 25 26 NMMSS Report D-24 provides instructions for preparing DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C in 27 computer-readable format as required for submittal. The Safeguards Management Software 28 (SAMS) program is a facsimile of NMMSS that allows the user to import and export data; do 29 edit checks to complete a quality review; generate various reports; and create material 30 balance, inventory, and transaction data. It has the capability to export data into the required 31 NMMSS predefined computer-readable format outlined in NMMSS Report D-24. The SAMS 32 program may be obtained from NMMSS staff free of charge.

33 34 Licensees can submit data to NMMSS through the following two methods:

35 36 (1)

Electronic Data Submission 37 38 Licensees should submit DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C in computer-readable format 39 unless reporting under 10 CFR 40.64(b). NMMSS Report D-24 provides instructions on 40 packaging, data format requirements, acceptable media types, and the mailing address 41 for the submittal of data on computer media.

42 43 Licensees can request a copy of the fillable forms installer kit by e-mailing NMMSS at 44 nmmss@nnsa.doe.gov. These forms can be completed, saved at the licensee site, and 45 submitted to NMMSS at the aforementioned e-mail address. Licensees may also 46

NUREG/BR-0007, Rev. 8 4

contact the NRC program manager for questions about fillable forms and electronic data 1

submission by e-mailing the NRC e-mail resource at nmmss.resource@nrc.gov.

2 3

Licensees should adhere to their facilitys encryption policy for transmitting electronic 4

data to NMMSS.

5 6

Licensees may also download data onto electronic media and mail the data to NMMSS.

7 Contact NMMSS staff to confirm the mailing address before submitting mail.

8 9

(2)

New or Modified Methods of Transferring Electronic Data 10 11 The NRC may authorize new or modified methods of transferring electronic DOE/NRC 12 Form 742 and 742C data to NMMSS. Licensees may confirm authorization to use 13 additional methods for the transfer of these data by contacting NMMSS staff.

14 15 1.4 Documentation and Distribution 16 17 Licensees must submit the completed DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C to NMMSS in a timely 18 manner. Before licensees submit any data, they should determine whether their submission 19 contains classified information because the specific documentation and distribution instructions 20 depend on whether the completed DOE/NRC Form 742 or 742C contains classified or 21 unclassified information.

22 23 Any DOE/NRC Form 742 or 742C that is classified must be documented and handled in 24 accordance with all pertinent security requirements. All other submissions that are not classified 25 are considered to be proprietary material control and accounting information, and licensees may 26 request that such information be withheld as defined by 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, 27 Exemptions, Requests for Withholding. Each person who is to receive a copy of the report 28 must be verified as a qualified recipient before distribution. Licensees should confirm the 29 address before sending documents to NMMSS or other recipients. In addition, they should 30 formally provide classification guidance to NMMSS after making a decision to classify or 31 declassify a submission or to change previously submitted guidance. When submitting 32 safeguards information, licensees should also submit DOE/NRC Form 740M, Concise Note, 33 and state that the submission is safeguards information and should be handled in accordance 34 with 10 CFR 73.21, Protection of Safeguards Information: Performance Requirements.

35 36 Licensees should do the following when distributing the completed report:

37 38 Submit one copy of the completed report and all supporting subschedules and lists to 39 NMMSS. All RIS holders are encouraged to review their RIS point-of-contact 40 information yearly and notify NMMSS that the data are correct or make changes.

41 42 Retain one copy for licensee files.

43 44 1.5 Reconciliation 45 46 At the end of every material balance reporting period, a reconciliation shall be performed 47 between reports submitted by the licensee to NMMSS and the projected book inventory that 48

5 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 1

NMMSS has calculated. This process shall be considered complete when the licensee resolves 2

any differences between the reported and projected balances, including those listed for 3

foreign-obligated materials.2 The reconciliation should be completed within 30 calendar days of 4

when the licensee was notified of the discrepancy, and it should include all accounts, including 5

holding accounts, held by the licensee.

6 7

Facilities should ensure that their reported weight totals in DOE/NRC Form 742C equal the 8

weight totals in DOE/NRC Form 742 for each material type. The totals in DOE/NRC Form 742C 9

should be an arithmetic sum of the weights listed on the batch data lines of DOE/NRC 10 Form 742C. The totals on DOE/NRC Forms 742 and 742C should agree with the values 11 maintained and used at the site. However, if reported DOE/NRC Form 742 and 742C values 12 differ from site-maintained values because of issues such as rounding, the site should submit a 13 concise note (DOE/NRC Form 740M) explaining the difference.

14 2

Commercial practices allow a facility to conduct an obligations exchange to meet a contractual requirement.

Obligation exchanges are not meant to circumvent U.S. international agreements for peaceful use and nuclear cooperation with trading partners. Facilities should use special care to avoid a negative obligations balance. NMMSS may report a negative obligations balance for a facility at any given reporting date because of the time delay in reporting shipments versus receipt; however, NMMSS cannot reconcile a facility for a material balance period until the foreign obligations at the facility are balanced.

7 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 2 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING DOE/NRC FORM 742 REPORTS 1

2 Licensees should complete DOE/NRC Form 742 in accordance with the instructions in this 3

NUREG and in NMMSS Report D-24, as appropriate. NMMSS Report D-24 provides 4

instructions and examples for the preparation of required electronic submittals to NMMSS.

INVENTORY DIFFERENCEInventory difference is the difference between physical 27 inventory and book inventory after the book has been adjusted for all receipts and 28 removals. A negative entry reports a gain. A positive entry reports a loss.

29 30 Reactors should not report an inventory difference to NMMSS. At the time of physical 31 inventory, the value assigned to an SNM item (e.g., assembly, rod, fragment, sealed 32 container) should be recorded identically on both the book inventory and the physical 33 inventory. At a reactor, unlike at facilities that process SNM for some end use, 34 adjustments to the values assigned to items (representing factors such as nuclear loss, 35 decay, and production rounding) can be explained and should be reported as such.

13 NUREG/BR-007, Rev. 8 2.2 Section B, Foreign Obligations 1

2 The total amount of obligated nuclear material in a facilitys inventory as of the end of the 3

reporting period must be accounted for by material type. It may not exceed the total amount of 4

physical inventory (i.e., a negative obligations balance). The NMMSS staff can provide 5

facilities with reports that calculate an obligations balance for an RIS code based on the balance 6

of transactions reported since the last reconciliation date. The NMMSS-calculated report may 7

indicate a negative obligations balance for a facility as a result of the delay in reporting 8

shipments versus receipts; however, NMMSS is not authorized to reconcile a facility for a 9

material balance period until the foreign obligations at the facility are balanced.

10 11 The following column entries are required:

12 13 1.

COUNTRY OF OBLIGATIONEnter the unique obligation code for each category of 14 nuclear material. Appendix C to this NUREG lists the codes. The current list of codes 15 can be obtained from NMMSS staff by sending a request to nmmss@nnsa.doe.gov.

ELEMENT WEIGHTEnter the element weight (plutonium, uranium, or thorium) of the 18 obligated SNM or source material in the reporting units specified for column A of 19 Section A of the form (see Section 2.1 of this NUREG).

20 21 3.

ISOTOPE WEIGHTEnter the appropriate isotope weight. For enriched uranium or 22 U-233, enter the weight to the nearest gram of U-235 or U-233, as appropriate. No entry 23 is necessary for plutonium, depleted uranium, natural uranium, or thorium unless the 24 licensees TFA requires such an entry.

25 26 4.

TOTAL WEIGHTEnter the totals for columns 2 and 3. These totals represent the total 27 obligated material at the facility. The total weight of obligated nuclear material may not 28 exceed the total element and isotope weight reported on line 82.

29 30 2.3 Section C, Certification 31 32 SIGNATURE, TITLE, AND DATEAn authorized representative of the licensee shall sign the 33 report if the licensee submits it as a hard copy. If the licensee submits it electronically, it must 34 establish internal procedures to ensure that the information provided in the report is accurate 35 and that only authorized licensee personnel prepare and issue the report.

Agreement StateA State that has signed an agreement with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 8

Commission (NRC) under which the State regulates the use of byproduct, source, and small 9

quantities of SNM in that State.

10 11 Book inventoryThe algebraic sum of the most recent physical inventory of the material 12 balance area and of all inventory changes that have occurred since the physical inventory was 13 taken.

14 15 Concise NoteU.S. Department of Energy (DOE)/NRC Form 740M, Concise Note, which is 16 used to provide additional information concerning nuclear material transaction, material balance, 17 or inventory data supplied by facilities engaged in the import or export of nuclear materials, by 18 facilities selected under the provisions of the agreement between the United States and the 19 International Atomic Energy Agency for the application of safeguards in the United States, or by 20 any facility that would like to transmit any additional explanatory nuclear material information.

21 22 DOE-owned materialNuclear material that, although a licensee uses such material as part of 23 its activities, is actually a DOE-owned asset. These materials may be bulk materials, discrete 24 radiation sources, or finished products. Such materials may represent a lease or loan 25 arrangement with DOE and are represented by an owner code of G on shipping information 26 (i.e., DOE/NRC Form 741, Nuclear Materials Transaction Report) and inventory 27 documentation (i.e., DOE/NRC Form 742, Material Balance Report, and DOE/NRC 28 Form 742C, Physical Inventory Listing). A licensee can determine whether nuclear material in 29 its possession is DOE owned by reviewing its DOE/NRC Form 741 documentation, which lists 30 the original receipt of the material. If DOE owns such material, the licensees portion of the form 31 will have the owner code G.

32 33 European Atomic Energy CommunityAs of January 2019, an organization consisting of the 34 following member countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, 35 Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, 36 Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, 37 Sweden, and the United Kingdom.

38 39 Foreign-obligated nuclear materialSource material or SNM that is subject to the terms and 40 conditions of a peaceful use agreement under Section 123 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 41 amended, that the U.S. Government has entered into with another government or group of 42 governments.

43 44 Highly enriched uraniumUranium enriched to 20 percent or greater in the isotope uranium 45 (U)-235.

46 47 Holding accountTypically identified by an NRC-assigned four-character reporting 48 identification symbol (RIS) that ends in the letter H. These accounts usually acquired inventory 49

NUREG/BR-0007, Rev. 8 D-2 material from the primary RIS in use at the licensees facility. Typically, a small number of 1

licensees have used these accounts for nuclear materials not expected to be immediately 2

processed, reprocessed, or disposed. However, the licensed nuclear materials in holding 3

accounts are still in the licensees possession and must be included in inventories reported to 4

the Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards System.

5 6

Inventory differenceThe arithmetic difference between a book inventory and the 7

corresponding physical inventory that closes the material balance period. It is calculated by 8

subtracting the ending inventory (EI) and removals from inventory (R) from the beginning 9

inventory (BI) and additions to inventory (A) during the period between physical inventories.

10 Mathematically, ID can be expressed as follows:

11 12 ID = (BI + A - R) - EI, 13 14 where (BI + A - R) is the book inventory.

15 16 Inventory reconciliationThe adjustment of the book record quantity of elements and fissile 17 isotope weights to reflect the results of a physical inventory taking. In a broad sense, inventory 18 reconciliation involves the activities of calculating (1) the ID for the material balance period in 19 question, (2) the uncertainty value associated with the ID, (3) the active inventory for the period, 20 and (4) any bias adjustment or prior period adjustment associated with the ID value.

21 22 Low-enriched uraniumUranium enriched below 20 percent in the isotope U-235.

23 24 Material balance periodThe time span to which a material or physical inventory pertains.

25 26 Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards SystemThe national database and 27 information system for select nuclear materials controlled by the U.S. Government. This system 28 was created to support national safeguards and management objectives in domestic and 29 international programs. The system stores data on nuclear material transactions and 30 inventories and produces a wide range of printed reports for use by DOE and the NRC and by 31 those licensees that they regulate. The system is used to satisfy the nuclear materials 32 information requirements of agreements between the United States and foreign entities. In 33 addition, the system provides the reporting interface between facilities selected under the 34 provisions of the U.S./International Atomic Energy Agency Safeguards Agreement.

35 36 Nuclear material outside facilitiesThe nuclear material that is not in a facility and is 37 customarily used in amounts of 1 effective kilogram or less.

38 39 Physical inventoryA physical determination of the quantity of nuclear material on hand at a 40 given time. The methods of physical inventory and the associated measurements vary 41 depending on the material to be inventoried and the process involved. A book inventory 42 between physical inventory takings can be calculated based on the physical inventory quantity 43 from the prior period together with all subsequent inventory changes associated with the 44 determination of that book inventory. The primary purpose of a physical inventory is to confirm 45 the absence of (or to detect) a loss, theft, or diversion of SNM.

Under Article 60 of 14 INFCIRC/366, the United States is obligated to submit an initial inventory report on all nuclear 15 material in its Caribbean territories to IAEA. By IAEA definition, nuclear material includes all 16 uranium, plutonium, and thorium holdings in the relevant territories in any chemical or physical 17 form. U.S. Caribbean territories include Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, as defined in 18 Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 75.4, Definitions. The United States 19 fulfills this reporting commitment through the collection of information in accordance with 20 10 CFR Part 75, Safeguards on Nuclear MaterialImplementation of Safeguards Agreements 21 between the United States and the International Atomic Energy Agency. This appendix 22 provides instruction for licensees reporting inventory under 10 CFR 75.32, Initial Inventory 23 Report, and 10 CFR 75.35, Material Status Reports, in accordance with INFCIRC/366.

24 25 E-2. General Instructions 26 27 The instructions in this appendix apply only to possessors of nuclear material outside facilities 28 (possessors), as defined in 10 CFR 75.4. Possessors are required to submit initial inventory 29 under 10 CFR 75.32 by preparing U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)/U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 30 Commission (NRC) Form 742C, Physical Inventory Listing, in accordance with the instructions 31 in Section E-2.1 of this appendix. The information in the initial inventory report may be based 32 on the licensees book record. Possessors reporting under this section must file subsequent 33 material balance reports based on a physical inventory and are required to attach a completed 34 DOE/NRC Form 742, Material Balance Report, in accordance with the instructions in 35 Section E-2.2 of this appendix. Such reports are required with respect to each physical 36 inventory taken as part of the material control and accounting procedures under 10 CFR 75.21, 37 General Requirements. Unless otherwise specified by license conditions, such reports shall 38 be dispatched as soon as possible and, in any event, within 30 days after the start of the 39 physical inventory. The reports must be filed as specified in the facility attachment for 40 possessors of nuclear material outside facilities, which the NRC will provide to applicable 41 licensees required to report under 10 CFR Part 75.

NORMAL OPERATIONAL LOSSES/MEASURED DISCARDSNormal operational 23 losses and measured discards are materials that have been discarded, whether in the 24 form of solids, liquids, or gases, as determined by measurement or by estimate on the 25 basis of measurement.

26 27 DOE/NRC Form 741 must account for all materials that leave the inventory through the 28 process of normal operational losses/measured discards, if not previously reported in the 29 period covered by this report. To account for these discards, use the established RIS 30 types described below.

31 32 If the material is discarded to a lagoon or pond, append an L to the receivers RIS.

33 Measured discards to the atmosphere or ground should be documented as an onsite 34 transfer with the licensees RIS as shipper and receiver. If the material goes off the 35 inventory into a holding area (refer to the term holding account in the glossary in 36 Appendix D) for later removal to a burial site, append an H to the receivers RIS. When 37 the material is eventually shipped to a burial site, the transfer series on DOE/NRC 38 Form 741 will show the shippers RIS with an appended H and the appropriate V-series 39 RIS in the receivers block. Alternatively, the licensee may return the material from the 40 holding account to the primary RIS and then ship the material from the primary RIS.

41 Such activities must also be documented on DOE/NRC Form 741. Remove discards 42 from inventory only when the material has been disposed of by (1) transfer to an 43 authorized recipient or holding area in accordance with 10 CFR Part 40, Domestic 44 Licensing of Source Material, or 10 CFR Part 74, Material Control and Accounting of 45 Special Nuclear Material, (2) authorization under 10 CFR 20.2002, Method for 46 14 Round up fractions of 0.5 or greater.

BIAS ADJUSTMENTThe ID bias adjustment is that quantity of material that should be 28 added to or subtracted from the ID quantity on line 77 to produce the best estimate of an 29 unbiased ID. The adjustment represents the algebraic summation of the impact of 30 measurement system biases on each component of the measured plant material 31 balance. Include the sum of the bias adjustments for the ID for the current period on this 32 line. This line should also include any prior period adjustments. Do not include bias 33 adjustments that have already been applied to the source data in the material balance 34 equation.

35 36 Note that the total ending inventories must match the total inventory reported on DOE/NRC 37 Form 742C for a material type.

38 39 Section B, Foreign Obligations 40 41 This section only applies to licensees that possess obligated nuclear material in their inventory 42 within a reporting period. It does not apply to licensees that have not possessed or transferred 43 (received or shipped) foreign-obligated material within a reporting period.

44 45 The total amount of obligated nuclear material in inventory as of the end of the reporting period 46 must be accounted for by material type. It may not exceed the total amount of physical 47 inventory for a given material type (i.e., a negative obligations balance). Facilities should use 48 special care to avoid a negative obligations balance at the time of facility reconciliation.

49 NMMSS may show a negative obligations balance for a facility at any given time within a 50 material balance period as a result of the delay in reporting shipments versus receipts; however, 51 E-10

NUREG/BR-0007, Rev. 8 E-12 NMMSS will not be able to reconcile a facility for a material balance period until the foreign 1

obligations at the facility are balanced.
