Abstract: The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its regulations that govern packaging and transportation of radioactive material and physical protection of plants and materials. Specifically, the amendments require licensees to provide advance notification to participating Federally-recognized Tribal governments regarding shipments of irradiated reactor fuel and certain nuclear wastes for any shipment that passes within or across their reservations. The rule extends to Tribal officials, his or her designee, and Tribal law enforcement personnel relief from fingerprinting requirements required for access to Safeguards Information (SGI). The participating Tribal government is required to protect the shipment information as SGI.

Short Statement: The final rule will increase the recordkeeping and third party notification requirements in Part 73 by 163 hours from 524,820 to 524,983 because this is a new requirement to notify participating Tribes of shipments that cross Tribal reservations. All of the burden is associated with Part 73; there is no expected increase for Part 71. Upon approval of this Final Rule, the Burden for 10 CFR Part 73 will be transfered to its correct clearance 3150-0002. The total annual burden for this proposed rule is 163 hours (6.4 recordkeeping hours + 156.4 third party hours).
