SUBJECT:
FOLLOW-UP INTEGRATED MATERIALS PERFORMANCE I EVALUATION PROGRAM (IMPEP) REVIEW OF NEW MEXICO RADIATION CONTROL PROGRAM This memorandum transmits to the Management Review Board (MRB) a proposed final report (Attachment 1) documenting the IMPEP follow-up review of the New Mexico Radiation Control Program. The review of the New Mexico program was conducted by an interoffice team during l the period July 7-10,1998. The team issued a draft report to New Mexico on August 6,1998, for factual comment. New Mexico sent factual comments by letter dated August 18,1998, from Ed Kelley, Ph.D., Director, New Mexico Water and Waste Management Division (Attachment to proposed final report). i
. The follow-up review team found that the State responded to and resolved 28 of the 29 recommendations and suggestions from the 1997 review. The only remaining open recommendation concerns the promulgation of regulations required for compatibility, which was found to be in process.' Based on the findings, the follow-up review team recommends to the Management Review Board (MRB) that for each of the five common performance indicators and the one non-common performance indicator reviewed, New Mexico's performance be found satisfactory and that the program as a whole be considered adequate to protect public health and safety and compatible with NRC's regulatory program. The team also recommends that the heightened oversight of the New Mexico radiation control program be discontinued. I i I E3 6a 230 S!fS E.ESEUIa Cg?y SP A*
