. t FOREWORD This narrative presents a description of the history, current practices, and capabilities, and the proposed activities of the State of Illinois as related to a complete radiation safety program for the control of ionizing radiation. It has been prepared pursuant to the State's interest in becoming an Agreement State. Section 274(b) of the Atomic Energy Act as amended, authorizes the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission to enter into an agreement with the Governor of a State providing for discontinuance of the regulatory authority of the Commission within the stata with respect to byproduct, source, and special nuclear material in quantities uut sufficient to form a critical mass.

Under the provisions of the Illinois Radiation Protection Act, Chapter 111 1/2, Paragraphs 211-229, Illinois Revised Statutes, approved July 17, 1959, the Illinois Department of Public Health had statutory powers, for regulation of sources of ionizing radiation.

However, as a result of an Executive Order effective October 1,1980 with rubsequent legislative authority granted Deceabor 3,1980 all powers and provisions of said Act were transferred to the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety (IENS). IDNS, therefore, has prepared this narrative. -

~ HISTORY, '

1955 Illinois Legislature created the Atomic Power Investigating Commission to pursue the investigation and study of economic and social impact of peaceful uses of atomic energy.

i 1956 Began environmental air surveillance program in cooperation with the U.S. Public Health Service (PRS) National Air Surveillance Program. '

1957 Workmen 's Compensa' tion Act , Chapter 48, Paragraph 136.6 and Workmens Occupational Disease Act, Chapter 48, Paragraph j 172.41 (c) and 172.36 (f) added " exposure to radiological materials or equipment as an extra hazardous employment, to which the Act applies". As amended July 1, 1969, this ~

section allows up to 25 years to file application for injury sustained frem exposcre to radiological materials or equipment.

1957 A representative group of users of various typt? of -

radiation machines and radioactive materials were taspected .

during the 1957-1959 period and the findings were reported a to the Legislative Commission on Atomic Energy (successor to the Atomic Power Investigating Commission). Based on these findings , the Ce: mission introduced legislatien which was subsequently passed for the coatrol of ionizing radiation.

1959 The Department of Public Health prepared " Rules and Regulations for the Protection Against Radiation Hazards,"

with the assistance of the Radiation Piotection Advisory Council. These regulations were promulgated and became effective in the spring of 1960. The Department at that time employed 16 x-ray technicians in six regional offices of the Department to conduct routine surveys of radiation facilities.

1960 The Department of Public Health began its environmental surveillance activities prior to operation of the Dresden nuclear power station in the early 1960 's. These activities included sampling of surface water, sampling of wildlife in the streams near this facility. The surveillance program also included analyses and tabulation of data received from other agencies , power utilities , and the Argonne National Laboratory. -

l

9 1963 Illinois became the fir;t state to imple tent a specific law requiring personnel radiation monitoring and reporting. As a result, a permanent repository for stor tge and retrieval of personnel monitoring data was incorpora ted in the Department's electronic data processing system. This record i system and its application was consistent with the requirements of the Workmens' Occupational Disesses Act in cases of a claim f or radiation injury. The Industrial Commission could verify such exposure by records on file in

'the central registry of the Departa,ent.

1967 Nuclear Engineering Corporation deeded 20.6 acres of land to the Department to provide shallow land burial of low level radioactive wastes. ,

1967 The Laser Systems Law was approved August 11, 1967, which requires registration of laser systems , authorizes the Department to promulgate regulations and to investigate and inspect all laser systems, and requires reporting of any accidental injuries sustained by such laser systems.

1967-1968 Provided liaison and assistance to U.S.P.H.S. team in the conduct of the radiological surveillance studies at a - -

boiling water nuclear power reactor headed by Dr. Bernd Kahn (BRH/ DER 70-1).

1969 ,

Illinois ' first radiation exposure limit was established for

. chest radiography using photafluorographic x-ray machines.

1971 The Radiation Protection Act was amended'on July 10, 1971, to provide for licensure of individuals possessing radioactive material occurring naturally, such as radium or radioactive material produced artificially (accelerator produced radionuclides) in excess of exempt quantities, at stich time as Illinois becomes an Agrwynent State.

1971 A thermoluminescent dosimetry (TLD) system was implemented in April, at the Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station near N; Cordova. This site was selected' as a primary target so that pre-operational data could be obtained prior to the loading of fuel. The monitoring program at Dresden was the most extensive to date in the State, due to the establishment or a complex of three nuclear reactors and the Midwest Fuel Reprocessing Plant on adjacent sites. The Zion Nuclear Power Station was included in the TLD monitoring network system in November, 1971. -

1973 A radiation expos'u re limit became effective January 1,1973, -

for intraoral dental radio 7raphy.

1973 The Radiation Protection Act was amended in October, to provide for licensure of all radioactive materials or devices or equipment utilizing or producing such materials that are not regulated by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, effective January 1,1974. An annual application fee was established for users of such material and for manufacturers and' distributors.

1973 The Division of Radiological Health conducted a year long federally financed pilot study for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This study known as the " Comprehensive Radiation Assessment Study" (CRAS) involved the development of a comprehensive population radiation study in which all, known sources of radiation (natural, housing, occupational; medical and consumer products) were assessed and the totah exposure determined on a geographic basis.

1973 The Department of Public Health entered into a contract with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to perform direct effluent sampling and analyses of gas, particulate and water dis charges . Samples were collected and split with the nuclear station laboratory and the results compared.

Through this program, monthly discharge data routinely supplied by the utility, could be directly assessed as to analytical accuracy.

1974 The Department of Public Health entered into a contract with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the U.S.

Department of Transportation to pezform a three month study involving the transportation of radioactive materials. The-study was primarily directed toward assessment of present trends in radioactive materials shipment, condition of packages, radiation exposure to handlers, and conformance to U.S. Department of Transportation Regulations, Title 49 CFR.

1974 The surveillance program was again expanded to include pre-operational monitoring of the LaSalle County station.

Plans were also being drawn to expand the surveillance activities for three additional reactor complexes: Byron, Braidwood and Clinton. Also the Department's Division of Laboratories purchased additional instrumentation and facilities. This laboratory is a direct support unit for radiochemical analyses in radiation control, activities. The e i I

O O expansion included the addition of a Canberra Ge-Li -

analytical device and development of a specific radiochemical preparation room.

1974 A Medical Use Advisory Board was created as a subco'amittee of the Radiation Protection Advisory Council under authority of Section 7 of the Radiation Protection Act. This Board is comprised of six highly competent M.D. 's or Ph.D. 's extensive training and experience in nuclear medicine, radiation therapy, and medical physics.

1975 In January, the nation's first medical exposure limiting regulations became ef fective. These regulations were developed by analyses of data accumulated during radiation facility inspections since 1971. Approximately 18,000 raaiation exposure measurements stored in the Department's electronic data bank system, which is the largest state data s bank on patient exposure inf ormation in the nation, were analyzed to develop the regulations.

1975 Two transportation studies were conducted under Federal contracts. One study was specifically directed to the transport activities at O' Hare International Airport and other Chicagoland transport terminals. The other involved a _

state multi-agency study at interstate weigh stations.

1975 In November, the Rules and Regulations for Protection Against Radiation were changed to require all persons transporting radioactive materials to comply with regulations established'by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT), Title 49, CFR.

1975 A new Division of Nuclear Safety was created in December with certain staff and functions being transferred from the Division of Radiological Health. In general, all activities relating to nuclear f acilities were transferred to the new  ;

Division, i.e., environmental surveillance, LLW disposal,  !

emergency preparedness, etc.

1976 Illinois hosted the Eighth Annual Conference on Radiation Control in Springfield.

O 1976 In July, the Department became aware of radiation contamination existing at ??ed-Keppler Park in West Chicago.

"It was suspected that the cot.tamination resulted from the processing of rare earths by the Lindsay Light and Chemical Company, where large amounts' of thorium ore residues remained. .

1977 A radiological surveillan,ce and inspection program was j j initiated through a cooper.ative agreement among the U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the U.S. Department of 3 Transportation, the Illinois Department of Public Health and l

I the Illinois State Police. Ten state troopers were trained and equipped with specialized radiation monitoring j

, . instrumentation to locate shipments of radioactive materials 1 and determine compliance.

1978 A second annual transportation study was . conducted under contract and a report entitled, " Transportation of Radioactive Material in Illinois" was prepared and submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

1978 The low level waste burial site at Sheffield discontinued

operation and the site was closed from further burial of low level radioactive' waste.

1979 The third annual transportation study was conducted under contract and a report entitled, " Transportation of Radioactive Material in Illinois" was prepared and submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

1979 The Radiation Protection Act , Section 216.C, was amended on September 22 to alter Natural Occurring and Accelerator

! Produoed Radioctive Materials (NARM) license renewals.f rom t annual to a schedule determined by the Department.

Application fees must be paid for the number of years for which a license would be issued.

1979 The Nuclear Safety Preparedness Act was enacted on September

14. The Act established fees for nuclear power stations ,

nuclear power reactors , away-from-reactor ( AFR) spent fuel storage facilities and shipments of spent nuclear fuel, i Fees were established to fund programs for development of nuclear accident preparedness plans, and a system for remote monitoring the radioactive discharges f rom nuclear facilities.

1980 The Illinois Plan f or Radiological Accidents (IPRA), Volume l I, was issued. Volume I was developed to define the j responsibilities of state agencies with regard to technical l and operational functions necessary in response to a nuclear station accident. The plan was exercised at the Dresden and the LaSalle Nuclear Stations for federal concurrence.

l 1980 The fourth annual transportation study was conducted under -

contract and a report entitled, " Transportation of Radioactive Material in Illinois" was prepared and submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

1980 Under a cooperative agreement uith the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), the Department initiated the nation's first secondary standard center to provide radiation instrument calibration service traceable to a national standard.

1980 The Department of Nuclear Safety was created October 1, 1980, by an Executive Order issued by Governor Thompson and )

subsequent legislation (Public Act 81-1516). The Order transferred various rights, powers, duties and functions  ;

from the Department of Public Health, the Environmental '

Protection Agency and the Office of the State Fire Marshall.

This action was initiated to consolidate all state programs regulating the uses of radiation and radioactivity in Illinois.

1981 The Illinois Plan for Radiolog'ical Accidents (IPRA) was exercised at the Dresden, Quad Cities and Zion Nuclear Stations , for federal concurrence. The Illinois Plan for . _

Radiological Accidents (IPRA) site specific Volume II, Dresden, and Volume III, LaSalle, were developed, to define the responsibilities of local units of government in responding to nuclear incidents.

1982 The Department proposed rules governing air emissions of radioactive materials to the Illinois Pollution Control Board, under the provisions of the federal Clean Air Act.

Technical hearings were held in January and March 1983, and )

economic impact hearings were held in January,1984. )

2 1982 The Department, in cooperation with the Bureau of Radiological Health, conducted a study of the effectiveness of xenon gas traps in hospitals.

1982 The nation's first Remote Monttoring System was installed at the new LaSalle County Nuclear Station in April. This system provides on-site and off-site monitoring capabilities with round-the-clock data available f or analysis by Departmental nuclear experts. -

1982 Legislative authorization (Public Act 82-901) established an inspection fee on x-ray equipment and permitted inspections to be conducted by non-Department inspectors. The Act also '

established an accreditation program to license technologists who operate x-ray equipment or use radioactive materials in the healing arts.

l .

1982 The Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPRA) ws exercised at Dresden, LaSa'le , and Quad Cities Nuclear

~ Stations, for federal concurcence. The Illinois. Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPRA) site specific Volume IV, Quad Cities, and Volume V, Zion, were developed to define the responsibilities of local units of government in responding to a nuclear incident. The Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPRA) site specific Volume II, Dresden, and Volume III, LaSalle receiv,ed federal approval.

1983 The legislature passed and Governor Thompson signed HB 2234, creating Public Act 83-0991 (the Illinois Low Level Radioactive Waste Management Act) which requires the Department to develop regulations regarding low-level radioactive waste transportation, storage and disposal. The law requires that state regulations be at least as stringent as applicable federal regulations.

1982 - The Department participated in a State Hazardous Materials 1983 Enforcement Development Program under contract with the U.S.

Department of Transportation 1983 The Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPRA)' was exercised at Dresden, LaSalle, Quad Cities , Zion and Byron nuclear stations for federal concurrence. The IPRA site specific Volume VI, Byron, was developed to define the i responsibilities of local units of government in responding to a nuclear incident. The IPRA site specific Volume IV, 1

Quad Cities, and Volume V, Zion, received federal approval.

1983 Upon the directive of Governor Thompson, inspections and

  • escort of spent fuel shipments were initiated in July.

Department staff perform a complete inspection in accordance with U.S. Department of Transportation regulations on each spent fuel shipment entering the border of Illinois and shipments originating in the state. Each shipment is escorted while in transit within the borders of Illinois.

1983 Installation of the environmental component for the Remote Effluent Monitoring System (REMS) was completed at all operating power reactors.

1984 Department staff participated in the search of radioactive table pedestals between January 31 and February 16. Site investigations were conducted at 107 locations and 4 were identified as having received contaminated pedestals. The nationwide investigation was triggered f rom the identifica- '

tion of a shipment of contaminated pedestals by an Illinois Harmat officer on January 31.

January 1,1984. The Department exp ets to license approximately a 9,000. individuals in medical radiation technology which includes 1

radiography, nuclear medicine and radiation therapy.

l Illino'is currently has 8 operating , nuclear power reactors located at 4 sites (Dresden, Zion, Quad Cities and LaSalle). One additional reactor is scheduled to, be on-line at the LaSalle County site during 1984. There are two additional research reactors and two j large federal research facilities located within the State of ,

i Illinois.

I In addition, the Department, through its Office of Nuclear i Facility Safety, is actively involved in auditing nuclear fuel cycle facilities; specifically those activities which f all within the jurisdiction of the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Safety Act and the Clean Air Act Amendments of -1977.

'. Liernsing The Division of Nuclear Matecials presently administers a program for the licensure of accelerator-produced and naturally-occurring radionuclides (NARM). The development' of this -

licensure activity was deliberately designed to coincide as closely as possible to licensure policy and procedures used by the U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Agreement States. Licensing guides , policies , application forms, license forms , and other administrative tools were developed through the assistance of certain Agreement States and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Thus, the present procedures and policies used in licensing NARM are nearly identical to those used by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission in licensing radioactive material. Ap'plications are reviewed and, when applicable, coordinated with Agreement States and f ederal agencies.

Pre-licensing visits are conducted as deemed necessary.

It is anticipated that these same procedures will be utilized for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission license applications and amendments . The policies and procedures will be consistent with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission guidelines. As of Janaury 1984, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission had issued approximately 825 licenses within the State of Illinois. Therefore, a total licensure workload, including the present 350 state licensees , of greater than 1,000 licenses is anticipated.

Regulations The Regulations for Radiation Protection are promulgated under the authority of the Illinois Radiation Protection Act. Subsequent to the 1973 amendment to the Radiation Fr'tection Act requiring naturally-occurring radionuclides, the regulations were significantly revised to include apptopriate regulations for licensure of radioactive materials. Consultation and advice was obtained from the Medical Use Advisory Board and af ter public hearings , the regulations were promulgated on May 1,1974. ,

Since that time, the regulations have been amended to keep pace with current radiation protection principles and advancement in technology. A complete revision of the regulations has occurred within the last few months to include all NRC required regulations for compatibility. The suggested state regulations of the Council of State Governments was utilized as a guide. After the effective date of the NRC/ Illinois State Agreement, all changes regarding radioactive materials licensure will be developed in accordance with state administrative procedures and the regulations will be submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission for review and approval for compatibility.

In addition to the Rad!stion Protection Act and the Regulations for Radiation Protection promulgated thereunder, both of which epply '

to all radiation facilities in Illinois , $[egislative mandates and subsequent regulatory activity have also occurred specifically directed at production and utilization facilities licensed by the NRC]

Pursuant to Illinois Revised Statutes 1983, Chapter 111 1/2,

} para. 3202A (Boiler and Pressure Ve; tel Safety Act) the Department is j empowered to promulgate rules and regt.lations governing all boilers and pressure vessels contained within or upon or in connection with any nuclear facility within the state. These regulations (32 Ill.

Adm. Code 505) shall provide for the safe and proper construction, l installation, repair, use, and operatiori of such f acilities and components. Certificates authorizing the operation of boilers and j pressure vessels within ASME code lurisdiction will be issued and renewed based upon satisfactory evidence of compliance. These ,

regulations ar"e presently being reviewed prior to promulgation.

I By opinion and Order dated August 2, 1980, the Illinois Pollution Control Board determined that it had jurisdiction under Section 25b of the federal Clean Air Act Ameitdments of 1977 to regulate airborne radiation hazards, specifically those eminating from materials and activities licensed by the NRC. Pursuant to j Illinois Revised Statutes,1981, Ch.127, par. 636b17, the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety is the executive agency responsible for l enforcing and implementing radiological air pollution regulations

promulgated pursuant to that Act. These regulations (35 Ill. Adm.

i Code 1000) have undergone extensive hearings and are in the final j stage of promulgation. These regulations include standards and i limitations governing radiological air pollution from K4C - licensed production and utilization facilities.

Inspection and Compliance

! The Department, through the Office of Radiation Safety, j ' presently maintains an active program of inspection and compliance

! activities. During fiscal year 1985, over 4,300 x-ray machines were inspected. All registered f acilities have received at least one

]i inspection. Currently the Department is conducting inspections in all regions and has established priorties as to frequency of inspection. This frequency is based upon the population radiological

impact potential of the various categories of radiation machines and a ranges from one to three year intervals. The entire medical x-ray I compliance program is developed to use electronic data processing.

This use of data processing has allowed significant improvements in

] administrative licensure of accelerator-produced and efficiencies and j provides a strong compliance data base for determining program i effectiveness and future program direction.-

1 The inspection of radium and certain other radionuclides has

! been performed since the Department's radiological health program

{ began. Inspections of NARM licensees have been conducted since 1975. '

l During fiscal year 1983, over 175 radioactive material license '

inspections were conducted. The NARM inspection program is 1

I i

EF O O e

consistent with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission radioactive material inspection program. Licensee inspections are conducted -

according to a priority schedule based upon license category.

Generally, inspections are conducted on an unannounced basis. If for some reason sufficient inspection data could not be collected on an unannounced basis, the inspector may arrange for an announced inspection.

At the completion of each inspection, the inspector confers with the responsible administrative personnel to discuss the results of the inspection, making any oral recIommendations or suggestions as indicated to improve radiation safety at the facility. The inspector submits a comprehensive report to the Chief of the Division of Nuclear Materials , reporting the findings of the inspection. The report enumerates items of noncompliance and makes recommendations for the abatement of any items of noncompliance found during the l inspection. A formal letter is then sent to the f acility inf orming administrative personnel of . compliance status.

The inspection of licensees will be performed by personnel specifically involved in the Agreement State program. It is anticipated that the statewide license inspection program will be performed from both the Springfield headquarters and the Chicago area regional office. All radioactive material compliance inspectors will - -

be managed by senior personnel. All inspection activities will be reviewed by Department management staff and frequent training sessions will be conducted to assure uniformity and consistency.

On April 27, 1984, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was executed between the US NRC and the State of Illinois expressing the desire to both parties to cooperate in the regulation of nuclear activities. In addition to expressing certain basic principals of cooperation, the MOU further provides the bagis for future detailed sub-agreements, some of which are currently in preparation within the Office of Nuclear Facility Safety. These sub-agreements, when executed, will provide for cooperation between the NRC and the Department in areas of emergency technical and information exchange, department audits and inspections of nuclear steam generating facilities, obtaining corrective actions to items of non-compliance, and the exchange of priviledged or confidential information.

The audit and inspection program administered through the Office of Nuclear Facility Safety, will provide for periodic audits and inspections of nuclear steam generating facilities to assure compliance with governing federal and state requirements. The results of the audits and inspections will be presented to utility management orally at the completion of the activity and formally by written report issued through the Department's Director. Correttive action to items of non-compliance will formally be requested.

\

s .

The enforcement program of the Air Emission Regulation including data analysis and facility audits also will be administered through .

1 the Office of Nuclear Facility Saferv. Corrective actions to items

of non-compliance will formally be requested of utility management.

Administrative Procedures i

The Department will attempt to obtain compliance through cooperation and education. Only in instances of willful violation, l i repeated items of noncompliance, o'r where serious immediate health hazards exist , will the full legal ' procedures be employed. When ,

items of noncompliance are found at the time of inspection, the j licensee is informed of such and corrective actions necessary for compliance are outlined.

When items of noncompliance are found, the licensee is informed 1

by letter, listing the items of noncompliance. The licensee is required to reply within thirty (30) days reporting corrective action i i that has been taken or planned, and the completion date of the l 1 required remaining corrective actions. A follow-up inspection is i conducted for items of a more serious nature.to assure compliance.

Whenever the Department finds that a condition exists that

! constitutes an imminent threat to public health requiring immediate

! action to protect the public health and welfare, the Department shall j order the cessation of the immediate threat and report the findings of the Department pertaining to the hazard. The Department may

]

< summarily require the abatement of the violation or may direct the ]\

I Attorney General to obtain an injunction against the violator.

Such order becomes effective immediately and includes notice of time and place of a public hearing before the Department within 1 thirty (30) days of the date of the order. On the basis of the hearing, the Department shall continue the order in effect , revoke, i or modify it. Any party affected by an order of the Department shall have the right to waive public hearing proceedings. A person violating any of the provisions of the Act may be found guilty of a Class A misdemeanor, and each day during which the violation continues is a separate offense. Any penalties shall be recoverable

in an action brought in the name of the, people of the State of Illinois by the Attorney General.

l The conditions or terms of a license are subject to amendment, j revision or modification, or may be suspended or revoked by reason of ,

amendments to the Act or by rules , regulations and/or orders issued 1 by the Department.

- i ORGANIZATION AND STAFF

~

The Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety is a code Department

'l in Illinois state government, with the Director being appointed by the Governor. All other Department personnel are full-time career employees under the personnel code of Illinois. The Director i

provides leadership necessary to meet the goals and objectives of Illinois' nuclear safety program, determines questions of agency policy and makes final decisions on all radiological issues and is primarily responsible for the day-to-day operations of the agency.

Elements working immediately under the Director include legal j counsel, policy analyst, budget and fiscal, public and governmental relations , internal audits and an administrative assistant.

Four offices form the programmatic organization of the Department. They are as follows:

l Office of Nuclear Facility Safety '

The Office of Nuclear Facility Safety monitors all Illinois nuclear power plants and areas surtaunding them to ensure the -

1 safe and efficient operation of these facilities and to guard against hazards to the public. The Office is also developing a l Remote Effluent Monitoring System f or nuclear plants which will provide immediate notification to the Department in the event of excessive emission of radioactive materials from these I f acilities .- This system is also capable of quantifying the l normal emiksions emitted by these f acilities as well as effluent concentrations associated with most accident scenarios. Four divisions comprise the office. -

l l Division of Engineering: This division monitors the design, construction, and operation of nuclear power stations and related facilities. Ongoing activities include mechanical and electrical design review and inspection of these facilities with particular emphasis on proper installation l and maintenance of the components of the facilities in compliance with Federal, State and A.S.M.E. standards. This division is also responsible for design and installation of the Remote Effluent Monitoring System.

Division of Health Physics: This division monitors 3 discharges f rom nuclear power plants and related facilities, monitors nuclear facility employee exposures, and enforces 4

the Department 's airborne radioactive emission standards. -

The division annually collects more than 2,000 samples of air, water, milk, fish, vegstation and soil from the areas around the facilities. This uivision also analyses the data generated by the Remote Effluent Monitoring System.

Division of Field Services: This division repairs and maintains the Remote Monitoring Ef fluent System and its various components. The division also designs , installs, repairs, and maintains the telecommunication equipment for the Office of Nuclear Facility Safety.

Division of R' emote Monitoring Operations: This division operates the Remote Effluent Monitoring System as well as develops and maintains the process control and scientific modeling software required by the system. This division also provides staffing of the Radiological Emergency Assessment Center.

Office of Radiation Safety ,

The Office of Radiation Safety ensures that radiation producing equipment and radioactive materials are utilized in a safe and effective manner. The goal of the office is to eliminate unnecessary radiation exposure to individuals resulting from x-ray equipment and radioactive materials. Three divisions comprise this office.

Division of Electronic Products: This division registers medical, dental, analytical and industrial x-ray machines and develops regulations, policies and procedures for the inspection of such devices to assure conformance with applicable laws. The division also

  • registers laser systems.

Another important responsiblity is the monitoring of workers in these areas for radiation exposure. Training of operators using radiation devices is another part of the division's work, along with limiting the radiation exposure of medical and dental x-ray patients in a manner consistent with effective treatment and diagnosis. Fees are collected from x-ray machine inspections performed by Departmental inspectors. Non-department inspectors are also authorized to conduct inspections in accordance with P.A.82-901 (an Act in relation to radiation safety), effective August, 1982.

Calibration of radiation instruments is also performed within the Division which is traceable to a national standard.

Division of Nuclear Materials: This division grants licenses

.I -

to physicians , hospitals , radiopharmaceutical manufacturers

and industry for the manuf acture, distribution or use of l radioactive materials. Af ter thoroughly reviewing the kind
of material involved, its proposed use, and the applicant's

! training and experience, a license may be issued. Inspection reports are reviewed by staft to assure compliance with appli. cable laws and regulations. When a licensee discontinues using radioactive materials, it also is the division's responsibility to approve the decommissioning of i such facilities so they may be released for unrestricted use i by the public. This Division would provide the managerial and supervising functions for the proposed Agreement State i program except those activities concerning low level radioactive waste disposal.

Division of Radiologic Technology Certification: This new I division has established regulations and standards necessary i to provide a minimum course of , education and continuing i education requirements for those individuals in medical i radiation technology, including radiography, nuclear medicine and radiation therapy. A Governor's appointed Radiologic Technology Accreditation Board has advised the Department on -

the development of the program and will continue to be a vital advisory component in the future. Licenses to practice medical radiation technology are currently being issued to qualified applicants. It is projected that approximately l 9,000 applicants will be reviewed during 1984.  !

l Field Operations: This is not considered a programmatic

Division but rather consists of all field support staff to I conduct inspections, investi5 ations snd general monitoring for radiarion protection. In accordance with Department organization, all field inspectors report to the Radiation

, Safety Office Manager. The inspectors are responsible for conducting inspections of x-ray equipment and radioactive material licensees according to established priorities.

Office of "Jaste and Transportarion Management:

The Office of Waste and Transportation Management is responsible
for the inspection of the handling and disposing of low level

, radioactive waste and the transporting of all radioactive waste within Illinois. It is responsible for enforcement of state re.sslations regarding these activities. Two divisions comprise the office. , .
