In comparison to FY 2020, the budgetary resources for the non-power production or utilization facilities fee class is primarily decreasing with respect to the medical isotope production facilities due to the near completion of the activities associated with the staffs review of the operating license application for SHINE Medical Technologies, LLC SHINE. In addition, the 10 CFR part 170 estimated billings are declining within the fee class as a result of delayed submittals associated with medical isotope production facilities by various applicants. The 10
CFR part 170 estimated billings
associated with the four non-power production or utilization facilities licensees subject to annual fees increased to support the following: 1
Activities associated with the review of the GE Nuclear Test Reactor license renewal application; and 2 activities associated with the review of a complex license amendment for the National Institute of Standards and Technology Neutron Reactor.
The annual fee-recovery amount is divided equally among the four nonpower production or utilization facilities licensees subject to annual fees
and results in an FY 2021 annual fee of $80,000 for each licensee.
f. Rare Earth The NRC has not allocated any budgeted resources to this fee class;
therefore, the NRC is not assessing an annual fee for this fee class in FY 2021.
g. Materials Users The NRC will collect $35.3 million in annual fees from materials users licensed under 10 CFR parts 30, 40, and 70, as shown in Table XVI. The FY 2020
materials users fees are shown for comparison purposes.

The formula for calculating 10 CFR
part 171 annual fees for the various categories of materials users is described in detail in the work papers. Generally, the calculation results in a single annual fee that includes 10 CFR part 170 costs, such as amendments, renewals, inspections, and other licensing actions specific to individual fee categories.
The total annual fee recovery of $35.3
million for FY 2021 shown in Table XVI
consists of $27.6 million for general costs and $7.7 million for inspection costs. To equitably and fairly allocate the $35.3 million required to be collected among approximately 2,500
diverse materials users licensees, the NRC continues to calculate the annual fees for each fee category within this class based on the 10 CFR part 170

application fees and estimated inspection costs for each fee category.
Because the application fees and inspection costs are indicative of the complexity of the materials license, this approach provides a proxy for allocating the generic and other regulatory costs to the diverse fee categories. This fee calculation method also considers the inspection frequency priority, which is indicative of the safety risk and resulting regulatory costs associated with the categories of licenses.
In comparison to FY 2020, annual fees are decreasing for 42 fee categories within the materials users fee class to reflect changes as a result of the biennial review of fees, which included an examination of the average professional hours for licensing and oversight

activities. In addition, annual fees are increasing for 11 fee categories within the materials users fee class due to the following: 1 An increase in the fullycosted FTE rate compared to FY 2020;
2 an increase in the budgeted resources for contract costs due to a reduction in the utilization of prior-year unobligated carryover funding compared to FY 2020; 3 the realignment of budgeted resources that supports contract funding for general license tracking, the materials event database, and rulemaking information technology activities; 4 changes as a result of the biennial review of fees, which included an examination of the average professional hours for licensing and oversight activities; and 5 an
