Mr. Rogtr L. Suppes, Chitf SEP 2 41998 Bureau of Radiation Protection Ohio Department of Health 35 East Chestnut Street Columbus, OH 43215
Dear Mr. Suppes:
In response to your request, NRC staff has examined the NRC rulemakings in progress which may be published as final rules between October 31,1998 (the effective date for your adoption by reference of NRC rules), and late spring of 1999, when the Agreement is anticipated to be in effect. Only rules which would fallinto categories A, B, C, or category D with Health and Safety significance were considered. Based on these criteria, one proposed NRC rule was identified.
The rulemaking involves the adoption of radiologic criteria for the termination of uranium and thorium recovery facilities in 10 CFR Part 20, Subpart E (see 62 FR 39058, July 21,1997).
This rulemaking will be a matter of compatibility for Agreement States which exercise regulatory authority over byproduct material as defined in section 11.e(2). However, since there are no uranium or thorium recovery facilities in Ohio, it will not be necessary for Ohio to adopt the rule as a prior condition to completing the Agreement, even if the NRC rule becomes effective before the Agreement.
If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-3340 or Mr. Richard Blanton of my staff at (301) 415-2322, or by e-mail: RLB@ NRC. GOV.

Dear Mr. Suppes:
In response to your request, NRC staff has examined t e rulemakings in progress which may be completed between approximately October 1,1998 and the approximate time the Agreement becomes effective. Only rules which woulp fallinto categories A, B, C, or category D with Health and Safety significance were considere . Based on this examinat!on, two rules were identified.
The first rulemaking involves administrative changa related to the manifesting of shipments of low level radioactive waste. Prior to March 1,1998,f licensees could provide manifests under either 10 CFR Part 20 Appendix F or Appendix G. Effective March 1,1998, only Appendix G may be used. The current rulemaking will remove ppendix F and make conforming changes.
Although the Uniform Manifest in Appendix G is a m[atter of compatibility fo States, the administrative changes in RM #522 do/not involve changes to the essential elements of the rule. Therefore, it will not be nec ssary for Ohio to adopt the changes as a prior condition to completing the Agreement.
The second rulemaking involves adoption of radi,ologic criteria for the termination of Uranium and Thorium recovery facilities in 10 CFR Part 20, Subpart E. This rulemaking will be a matter of compatibility for Agreement States which exe,rcise regulatory authority over byproduct material as defined in section 11.e(2). However, since there are no such facilities in Ohio, it will not be necessary for Ohio to adopt the rule as a prior condition to completing the Agreement.
