' SUPPORTING STATEMENT for 10 CFR 20 Amendments incorporated in 10 CFR 61 Rulemaking 1.

Justification 10 CFR Part 20 is being amended to require licensees to include specified information on existing shipping documents for low level waste shipments and to forward an advance copy to the intended receiver.

If the shipment is not received when expected, the intended receiver notifies the shipper who must conduct an investigation and report the resbits to the NRC.

There are about 9000 NRC licensees 3 approximately 2250 of which might make waste shiynents at some time.

The only information submitted to the NRC directly will be reports of licensee's investigation of late or missing shipments (see 520.311(h)(2).)

This information goes directly to the nearest Regioral Inspction and Enforce-ment Office of NRC.

Depending on the nature of the waste shipment and whether or not-the licensee was successful in locating it, the Regional I&E Office can follow up with its own investigation promptly, i,f appr spriate.

The manifest system proposed in Part 20 will address the need for morb complete information for accountability of waste shipments.

The EPA has recently.

instituted a manifest tracking system for ha ardous wastes. The General Account-ing Office (GAO) noted the need for improvements in its report entitled "The Problem of Disposing of Nuclear Low-Level Waste:

Where Do We do from Here?

published March J1,1980.

The GA0 recomended that the Commission " Establish a method to track waste from the point of generation to the point of disposal."

4 Use of manifests are provided in k0.311, which provides _a trscking syttem that is inspectable.

2.

Description of Survey Plan Covers all licensing requirements for level disposal of radioactive waste.

3.

Tabulation and Publication Plans Not applicable.

4.

Time Schedule for Data Collection and Publication tiot applicable.

5.

Consultations outside theJgency 10 CFR 61 has been subject of rulemking.

6.

Estimate of Respondent Burden Although the specified inforration required on the manifest document is sent to the disposal site operator and not to NRC, an estimate of the additional time required by individual licensees to provide such information is included

9 here for completeness.

If the previous assumptions hold, there would be about 4500 shipments originated each year by NRC licensees.

Acquiring and recording the information might require one staff-hour per shipment, although this is an estimate.

If so, the cost to the public for this requirement would be about 450 staff-hours.

If 25 of these licensees investigated late or missing shipments each year, as assumed above, and each spent 5 staff-days per investigation, the I

total effort expended by the public would amount to about 1000 hours0.0116 days <br />0.278 hours <br />0.00165 weeks <br />3.805e-4 months <br /> per year.

Total burden 5500 hours0.0637 days <br />1.528 hours <br />0.00909 weeks <br />0.00209 months <br /> annually.

1 7.

Sensitive Questions l

I.

None 8.

Estimate of Cost to Federal Government There are no data on which to base the costs directly, but the costs can be inferred from the following assumptions.

The NRC has approximately 9000 licensees, about one fourth of which would be expected to make a waste shipment at some time.

If, on the average, each licensee made 2 shipments per year and if one-half of one percent of all shipments were late or missing, this wou.1d result in about 25 investigations per year bei If half of these warranted followup investigation by NRC, with ng reported.

each followup requiring 3 staff-days, somewhat less than 40 staff-days per year would be required, for a total of

$12,800 annually.
