i SUPPORTING STATEMENT FOR DOE /NRC FORM 742C,

" PHYSICAL INVENTORY LISTING" SUBMITTAL IN COMPUTER READABLE FORM (3150-0058)

Description of the Information Collection DOE /NRC Form 742C provides for the collection of a statement of composition of ending inventory of nuclear material semiannually.

NRC is proposing a regulatory change to make it mandatory that licensee submittals be in computer readable form.

A.

Justification Uggd for the Information Collection in order for the United States to fulfill its responsibilities as a participant in the US/lAEA Safeguards Agreement and its domestic safeguards responsibilities, it is necessary for licensees affected by 10 CFR Part 75 and Part 50 to submit a composition of ending inventory.

DOE /NRC Form 7420, " Physical Inventory Listing," is used for the collection of this information.

In addition, Facility Attachments or Transitional Facility Attachments for those facilities that are subject to 10 CFR Part 75 will specify circumstances under which reports are required and the dates on which they are to be submitted. NRC is proposing a regulatory change to make it mandatory that the licensee submittal be in computer readable _ form.

This will be less burden on the licensee because most have their material accounting already automated.

Submitting the computer readable form will be easier than completing the hard copy form.

The notice of proposed rulemaking is enclosed.

Aaency Use of Information NRC is required to collect nuclear material inventory information and make it available to the IAEA. This information is needed to satisfy the terms of the US/lAEA Safeguards Agreement and for the domestic inspection program.

The use of Form 7420, together with NUREG/BR-0007, the instructions for completing the form, enables NRC to collect, retrieve, analyze as necessary, and submit the data to IAEA to fulfill its reporting responsibilities.

Use of this report form, in ADP format, enhances NRC's ability to collect and provide this data.

Reduction of Burden Throuah Information Technoloav Licensees have had the option of submitting the required information on a facsimile of the form or transmitting the information electronically.

DOE contractors currently submit data using the DOE automated SACNET..The NRC has initiated a rulemaking to amend its regulations to require the licensees using DOE /NRC Forms 741, 741A, 740M, 742, and 742C to submit such reports in computer readable form. When implemented, this change will eliminate the NRC's need for the hard copy forms and reduce the burden on licensees through the use of current information technology.

Efiort to Ident i f y DuDlic 411qn in general, information required by NRC in reports or records concerning the transfer, receipt, or change in inventory of source or special nuclear material does not duplicate other federal information requirements and is not available from any source other than applicants or licensees.

Portions of the needed information might also be contained in other information submittals to NRC or other federal agencies. However, duplication, if any, is slight, and the collection of this information by use of specified forms and other required reports and records is the most effective and least burdensome means of obtaining the information.

Ef fer11_LQ Vse Similar_ InformaMon

~

!4RC and the Department of Energy (DOE) jointly utilize a Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards System (NMMSS).

Common reports are used to minimize the reporting burden on industry members required to provide nuclear material data to one or both agencies in accordance with prevailing regulations or contractual obligations.

The licensee is thus able to file one report to meet the requirements of both agencies. Compliance with specific reporting requirements is monitored by the agency for which the specific data is required.

Lf._Lort to RedungJmall Businen_Ryrden L.icensees affected by reporting requirements using this form have an estimated annual gross income of more than $1 million and a staff of more than 500 people.

The NRC has determined that the respondents are not small businesses as that term is used in the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Constquences of less Freouent ColleqLign Affected licensees are required to submit reports semiannually.

This schedule is reasonable because the submission will coincide with the taking of a physical inventory.

The collection and recording of data for. inventory purposes is a continuing process that the licensee carries out throughout the year for the licensee's internal records.

At the specified times for inventory reports, the licensee simply submits the accumulated data from the licensee's records, based either on book inventory or on data from a physical inventory taking, to NRC in the report.

The requirement to report within thirty days of the ending date is a reasonable measure to ensure timeliness in receipt of inventory data by NRC in order to maintain material accountability under its statutory responsibility pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act to assure protection of the common defense and security.

Moreover, the US/lAEA Safeguards Agreement specifies that reports are to be submitted within 30 days following a physical inventory taking.

The Canadian and Australian Bilateral Agreements require that reports be submitted yearly and twice yearly, respectively.

Circumstances which Justify Variation from OMB Guidance Contrary to OMB guidelines in 5 CFR 1320.6, Section 75.35 requires submission of the report within 30 days or less.

This requirement is necessary to satisfy the terms of the VS/lAEA Safeguards Agreement (INFCIRC/288),

i Consulta110 L 0utside of the NRC The staff has met and consulted with a group of typical licensees concerning clarification of instructions for reporting data and the burden of such reporting. Meetings were held June 23-24, 1992.

Confidentiality of Information proprietary information must be included when necessary to provide adequate response.

An application to withhold such information from public disclosure may be made, and would be disposed of, in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 2.790.

If any of this information is of particular sensitivity, a request may be made that such information not be physically transmitted to the IAEA; such a request must refer to, and must conform with, 10 CfR 74.12.

Sensitive Ouestions

None, b_timated Annualized Cost to the federal Government The collection of information requires an average of 5 min./ form of NRC staff time.

For approximately 120 respondents reporting semiannually the collection requires 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br /> per year (5 min./ report x 240 reports / yr.

20 hrs./yr.).

Annual labor costs at $123-per staff hour will be $2,460.

The other costs are attributed to operating the Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards System (NMMSS).*

fMC and DOE share the cost of operating the Nuclear Materials Hanagement and Safeguards System (NMMSS). Current cost of the system for NRC for FY-93 is $1.1 million.

This cost is attributable to these nuclear materials transaction and accounting report forms.

This includes the cost'of ADP, record holding, and clerical processing of all forms (00E/NRC forms 741, 741A,- 740M, 742, 742C, and-IAEA Form.N-71).

The suballocated cost to form 7420 is $12,011.

. Estimate of Burden Estimated yours Required to Respond to the Information Collection Reauiremini The average burden for preparation and submission of each report is expected to be reduccd from eight hours to six hours.

120 licensees will each submit two per year, resulting in a total of approximately 240 reports submitted annually.

Thus, the total burden for all licensees will be 1,440 hours0.00509 days <br />0.122 hours <br />7.275132e-4 weeks <br />1.6742e-4 months <br />.

EstimateLCost to Respand i

The annual cost to each respondent to comply with this requirement is

~

estimated to be $1.476.

The total annual cost to all affected licensees is estimated to be $177,120.

Source of Burden Data and Method of Estimatina Burden This data is based on informal consultations by the staff with a small number of typical licenseer and on analysis of actual submissions to NRC.

Cost estimates are based on a rate _of $123 per hour.

Reasons for Chance in BurdRD The estimated burden has been reduced because automation should result in an average burden reduction of two hours per response.
