SUBJECT:
ILLIt!0IS REQUEST FOR 274b AGREEMENT - CORRECTED PAGES On October 3, 1986, I wrote you enclosing a package concerning Illinois' l
request to enter a Section 274b agreement and requesting concurrence on l
a proposed Federal Register notice of the staff's assessmant of the l
State program. The Illinois request was supported by a 3 volume set of documents. Vol. III contained the State's regulations for radiation protection (which had been previously reviewed and comented upon by 'mc staff). In the State's reproduction of Vol. III, pages in Parts 310, 340 and 351 were omitted. Part 310 has been reprinted. This and the missing pages in Parts 340 and 351 are enclosed.

Dear Joel:
Enclosed please find 25 copies of Part 310, Appendix 351.B. and Illustration 340.A.
There is no scope section to Part 320. Section 320.10(a) clearly states that registration must be undertaken by operators of all facilities, not -
subject to NRC regulation, where radiation machines are used.
When I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to call.
