Materials Licensing Branch United Staies Nuclear Regulatory Agency Region Ill 801 Warrenville Road Lisle, Illinois 60532-4351

Dear Mr. Mullauer:

Re: Amendment to Licenses 34-14187-02, SUD 1417, SNM 1941 9

Control Numher 30485 Docket Number 030-18335 I am writing in reference to our telephone conversation of December,1998. As you recall, we spoke regarding my request to have our NRC license number 34-14187-02 amended to include additional laboratories at Youngstown State University's (YSU) Ward Beecher Science Hall approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for working with licensed radioisotopes.

You indicated that ifI provided you with a diagram of a model laboratory on which future laboratory approvals would be based, I could authorize additional laboratories without submitting an amendment to the NRC, provided they meet the same criteria of the "model" I am enclosing a diagram of Room 6003, with photographs, which has already been approved by the NRC for use.

I would consider this laboratory to meet the criteria of a model laboratory on which future room approvals would be based (see attachment). I would like to point out however, that although this room contains two chc:nical fume hoods, the University is not licensed to obtain nor work with any volatile radioisotopes. Consequently, I woud not consider chemical fume hoods a requirement for new laboratories unless the work were to huolve chemicals whose use mandated the presence of a chemical fume hood based on the toxicity and not the radioactivity of the chemical.

With respect to your request for information such as shielding, security provisions and description of areas for receipt, storage, preparation and measurements oflicensed materials, I am also enclosing a copy of the University Radiation Safety Manual. This document was created as a requirement of YSU's license with the NRC, and contains all aspects ofreceipt, storage, use and disposal oflicensed materials on the YSU - mpus. I am confident that this document will address any questions you have regarding the concerns mentioned above.

In addition to the request to amend license number 34-14287-02 I am also requesting that YSU's licenses SUD 1417 and SNM 1941 be amended to include Dr. Ronald G. Tabak and Dr. William G.

Sturrus as authorized users. I have enclosed copies of their experience and education in the use of radioisotopes for NRC reveiw.

Therefore, kindly consider this correspondence a formal request to :eitiate the following license amendments:

By-Product license 34-14287-02 Request for general approval to add rooms to YSU's By-product materials license based on the enclosed model.

SUD 1417 Request to add Drs. Ronald G. Tabak and William G. Sturrus as authorized users.

SNM 1941 Request to add Drs. Ronald G. Tabak and William G. Sturrus as authorized users.

I trust that the information that I have supplied you will be sufficient to make a decision regarding these amendments but should you require additionalinformation regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your continued cooperation in this matter.

Q.

Criteria for Laboratory Approval For Work With Radioisotopes These conditions set forth for radiation laboratories at Youngstown State University (YSU) have been submitted to and approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). All laboratories approved for use with radioactive materials at YSU must meet these minimum conditions:

j 1.

Have a minimum area of120 square feet 2.

Work surfaces are made ofsmooth, nonporous material that is easily cleanable.

such as stainless steel or are lined with acid-resistant laminate. During i

experimentation, disposable and impervious bench covers should be used over the counter top as an aid in cleanup of potential spills 3.

Have adequate bench space for permanent storage oflaboratory equipment such as ovens and water baths, so as not to reduce the amount of available work' space for analysis.

4.

Possess sufficient storage space for such materials as shielding.

5.

No carpeting is permitted in approved radiation laboratories J

6.

All labs must be capable of maintaining a controlled temperature between 65 -

75 degrees Fahrenheit 7.

All labs must be equipped with a sink for handwashing 8.

All labs must have appropriate and accessible safety equipment which includes, but is not limited to fire extinguishers, as well as approved eyewash stations and first aid kits.

9. -

A refrigerator and/or freezer is located within the lab itself, or in a room immediately adjacent to it, for material storage. Both the refrigerator and freezer must be lockable.

10.

Have entry doors that are capable of being locked with a key.

O Application for William G. Sturrus Jan?31,1999 L Training

c. Principles and practices of radiation protection Hope College in Holland,'MI, where I was a student and served as a summer laboratory assistant, required instruction in safety procedures for student machine shop use, student use of the 2 MeV VanDeGraaf accelerator, student use of the neutron Howitzer, and student use of the radioactive calibration sources and irradiated samples.

I received instruction for each of these and for my (undergraduate) participation in experimental activities at the Notre Dame Accelerator facility and the Indiaan University Cyclotron Facility. The latter two involved safety procedures mostly geared toward the work around the accelerators, but at IUCF I also worked in the tritium source area. In addition, I and a few students at Youngstown State recently viewed the safety video: Fundamentals ofRadiation Sqfety, a 53-minute training film produced in 1987 by Radiation Training Services, P.O. Box 288, Burke, VA 22015.

I

b. Radioactivity measurement standardization and monitoring techniques and instruments A year-long laboratory course at Hope College introduced the standard methods of radioactivity measurement through a series of experiments requiring the proper use of a variety of detectors and equipment. For example, gamma ray detection from with a NaI/photomultiplier was used for calibration purposes and gamma ray detection with a Li-drifted Ge detector was used for higher-resolution applications, alpha particle energy loss was measured with a Si surface barrier detector, X-ray emission from acelerator collisions were measured with a Li-drifted Si detector, slower neutrons were detected in accelerator collision reactions and using a Lil/photomultiplier detector and fast neutrons were detected with 23% (in a Howitzer) with the GeLi detector. All of the students in the advanced lab course, emp~ially those that applied for summer internships (myselfincluded) had to know the safety rules and operating procedures for the neutron Howitzer, and the VandeGraaf accelerator. Geiger counters were also used in the introductory physics labs by all physics majors.

~

c. Mathematics and calculations baste to the use and measurement of radioactivity In addition to the calculations associated with the experiments mentioned in part b, I have taken a graduate-level nuclear physics course as part of the requirements for my PhD degree at the University cf Notre Dame. Understanding of the mathematics of decay rates, absorption, particle flux, and much more was required of the students taking that course. I have also published papers in Physical Review that involve calculational methods in atomic physics that are quite similar to the methods used to describe radioactive materials.
d. Biological effects of radiation The biological effects of radiation were briefly reviewed in the undergraduate curriculum at Hope College, and I have viewed the video: Riskr Associated with Radiation Erposure, a 52-minute training film produced in 1985 by Radiation Training Services, P.O. Box 288, Burke, VA 22015.

a. At Youngstown State University, Youngstown, Ohio, where I received my B.S. in physics in 1968, I had two years of on the job training on the principles and practices of radiation protection. This was primarily concerned with gammas and neutrons (thermal and high-speed). There was also a 2-day formal course at Argonne National Laboratory.

There was also on-the-job training at the University of Washington (Seattle) for one year, where I was an Atomic Energy Commission Fellow and where I received my M.S. degree in physics in 8/69. More recently, I have reviewed two films: " Risks Associated With Occupational Radiation Exposure" and " Fundamentals of Radiation Safety."

b. Radioactivity measurement standardization and monitoring techniques and instruments (See a above) I have experience with all standard techniques.
c. Mathematics and calculations basic to the use and measurement of radioactivity My undergraduate thesis at Youngstown State University was entitled "The Measurement of the Parameters of time YSU Subcdtical Nuclear Reactor." At the U. of Washington, I took two graduate-level reactor theory courses from the Dept. of Nuclear Engineer. Here at YSU and in conjunction with the Dept. of Chemical Engineer, I am planning to teach an introductory course in nuclear reactor physics.

Dear Mr. Perry:

Enclosed are Amendment Nos. 08 and 09 to your NRC Material License Nos. SUD-1417 and SNM-1941 in accordance with your request. Please note that the changes made to your license are printed in bold font.

Please review the enclosed document carefully and be sure that you understand all conditions.

If there are any errors or questions, please notify the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Region lll office at (630) 829-9887 so that we can provide appropriate corrections and answers.-

Please note that license condition No.13 was deleted from license No. SUD-1417 since it did not apply to your licensed program.

' Please be advised that your license expires at the end of the day, in the month, and year stated in the license. Unless your license has been terminated, you must conduct your program involving byproduct materials in accordance with the conditions of your NRC license, representations made in your license application, and NRC regulations. In particular, note that you must:

1.

Operate in accordance with NRC regulations 10 CFR Part 19, " Notices, Instructions and Reports to Workers; Inspections," 10 CFR Part 20, " Standards for Protection Against Radiation," and other applicable regulations.

2.

Notify NRC, in writing, within 30 days:

a.

When the Radiation Safety Officer permanently discontinues performance of duties under the license or has a name change; or b.

When the mailing address listed on the license changes. (No fee is required if the location of byproduct material remains the same.)

3.

In accordance with 10 CFR 30.36(b) and/or license condition, notdy NRC, promptly, in writing, and requect termination of the license when a decision is made to terminate all activities involving materials authorized under the license.

d.

Change ownership of your organization.

l 5.

Submit a complete renewal application with proper fee or termination request at least 30 days before the expiration date of your license. You will receive a reminder notice approximately 90 days before the expiration date. Possession of byproduct material after your license expires is a violation of NRC regulations. A license will not normally be renewed, except on a case-by-case basis, in instances where licensed material has never been possessed or used.

In addition, please note that NRC Form 313 requires the applicant, by his/her signature, to verify that the applicant understands that all statements contained in the application are true and correct to the best of the applicant's knowledge.~ The signatory for the application should

be the licensee or certifying official rather than a consultant.

You will be periodically inspected by NRC. Failure to conduct your program in accordance with

' NRC regulations, license conditions, and representations made in your license application and supplemental correspondence with NRC will result in enforcement action against you. This could include issuance of a notice of violation, or imposition of a civil penalty, or an order -

suspending, modifying or revoking your license as specified in the General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions. Since serious consequences to employees and the public can result from failure to comply with NRC requirements, prompt and vigorous enforcement action will be taken when dealing with licensees who do not achieve the necessary meticulous attention to detail and the high standard of compliance which NRC expects of its licensees.

Sincerely, 3
