Frequently Asked Questions Materials License Annual Fee What is the invoice for?
The invoice is for the annual fee for the NRC license identified on the top of page two of your invoice [see Sample Invoice.]
What period does this invoice cover?
Materials licenses annual fees that are less than $100,000 are billed on the anniversary date of the license and cover a twelve month period. Licensees that are billed on the license anniversary date will be assessed the annual fee in effect on the anniversary date of the license. For purposes of proration for new licenses, terminations, and downgraded licenses, the annual fee is prorated based on the fiscal year, October 1 through September 30 [see 10 CFR Part 171.17 Proration and 10 CFR Part 171.19 Payment for more detail.]
What is an anniversary month?
The anniversary month is the month the license was originally issued.
We have more than one license. Why werent they all on the invoice we received?
If you have multiple licenses or approvals and they have different anniversary months, invoices will be issued for the anniversary month of each license or approval.
Where can I find NRCs Fee Schedules?
The materials annual fee schedule can be found under 10 CFR Part 171.16. Our fee schedules are published for notice and comment rulemaking in the Federal Register.
The proposed and final fee schedules are available on the internet Regulations.gov Termination Requests Our license was terminated. Why did we receive an invoice?
The annual fee is not waived for termination requests filed on or after October 1 of a fiscal year. However, if you file a termination request during the period October 1 through March 31 of the fiscal year, the NRC will prorate the fee 50 percent and will process a refund for any overpayment. The NRC will not prorate the annual fee for termination requests that are filed after March 31of the fiscal year and will send an invoice for the full annual fee in effect on the anniversary date of the license [see 10 CFR Part 171.17 Proration, for additional information.]
How can we avoid the annual fee next year?
To avoid the annual fee for the next year, you must request termination or an amendment for possession or storage only, and you must permanently cease licensed activities before October 1 of the next fiscal year.
How do we terminate our license?
Submit a termination request to NRC at least 30 days before the expiration date on your license. You should contact the appropriate NRC Regional Office [see Contacts section]
for information on how to terminate your license.
