II. Background

Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for
renewal of an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, NRC Form 314, “Certificate of Disposition of
Materials.” The NRC hereby informs potential respondents that an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and that a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

The NRC published a
Federal Register
notice with a 60-day comment period on this information collection on December 11, 2025, 90 FR 57492.

1. The title of the information collection: NRC Form 314, Certificate of Disposition of Materials.

2. OMB approval number: 3150-0028.

3. Type of submission: Extension.

4. The form number, if applicable: NRC Form 314.

5. How often the collection is required or requested: Form 314 is required when NRC licensees wish to terminate their license.

6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Respondents are firms, institutions, and individuals holding a NRC license to possess and use radioactive materials who do
   not wish to renew those licenses.

7. The estimated number of annual responses: 110.

8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 110.

9. The estimated number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 55 hours (110 × 0.5 hour).

10. Abstract: NRC Form 314 is submitted by a materials licensee who wishes to terminate its license. The form provides information needed
    by NRC to determine whether the licensee has radioactive materials on hand which must be transferred or otherwise disposed
    of prior to expiration or termination of the license.
