Answer

$I=1.72$ mA

Work Step by Step

We know that, $\frac{1}{2}LI^2=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2}{C}$ This can be rearranged as: $LI^2=\frac{Q^2}{C}$ $I=Q\sqrt\frac{1}{LC}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $I=3\times 10^{-9}\sqrt\frac{1}{3\times 10^{-3}(1\times 10^{-9})}=1.7\times 10^{-3}=1.72$ mA
