e COPt1ENTS ON FINAL RULE PACKAGE AMENDMENT TO 10CFR20 TO REQUIRE THE USE OF ACCREDITED PERSONNEL D0SIMETRY PROCESSORS Memorandum to V. Stello, page 2: This memorandum states that less than 0.5 person-years / year of NRC staff time will be needed to oversee the

/ a program that is operated by another government agency. We realize that h some coordination / liaison effort is needed (less than 0.1 staff-year?).

Enclosure B, : age 4, " Alternative 2": Although we recognize the uncertainties in estimating a lypothetical inspection and enforcement effort involving hypothetical requirements, the 8 staff-year per year estimate appears high. We understand that NVLAP assessors now spend about 2 days at each processor every 2 years.

Allowing another 2 days for travel and report and assuming 100 processors, the estimate would be closer to 1 staff-year per year for inspection.

Enclosure B, page 7, line 8: See preceding comment regarding the 8 person-year value.

Enclosure C page 26, response to comenter #70: There is no direct response to the comment that this rule will set a precedent for requiring accreditation fees for extremity monitoring and bioassay. The rule will set a precedent.

Whether or not that precedent will be followed is another matter.

Enclosure E, page 4, conclusion: It is not clear that adoption of this rule i would prevent this estimated " additional exposure."
