\wl2- September 24, 1999 Mr. Clyde Graeber Secretary Kansas Department of Health and Environment Landon State Office Building, Room 620 900 SW Jackson Street Topeka, KS 66612-1290
Dear Mr. Graeber:
Enclosed is the final report of the follow-up integrated Materials Performance Evaluation Program (IMPEP) review of the Kansas radiation control program. The review was conducted by an NRC/Agieement State team during the perlod June 15-17,1999. The team reviewed in detail the common per#crmance indicator of concem identified during the 1998 IMPEP review, Technical Quality of Licensing Actions. The program's status in addressing the remaining i recommendations for the other performance indicators from the 1998 IMPEP review were also l discussed, i
The review team found that the licensing program has improved. The team found the program has responded to and resolved three of the five 1998 review recommendations for the performance indicator, Technical Quality of Licensing Actions. Additional action is needed to close Recommendations 8 and 9. (See Section 3 on page 5 of the enclosed report.)
Recommendation 8 discusses the need to complete a self-evaluation of all existing licenses and Recommendation 9, the need for continued management oversight of tne licensing program as new staff assume license review responsibilities. A new recommendation was made involving completing supervisory or quality assurance reviews of licensing actions to ensure thoroughness. The team also found that the program has taken satisfactory action to address 12 of the 131998 review recommendations for other performance indicators. Their status is discussed in Appendix B with the team's conclusion.
Based on the follow-up IMPEP review, the Management Review Board finds that there is no change to the finding resulting from the June 1998 IMPEP review, that the Kansas radiation protection program is adequate, but needs improvement, and compatible with NRC's program.
l Section 3 on page 5 of the enclosed final report presents the follow-up team's (
l recommendations. Based on previous correspondence and discussions during the follow-up review, we request no additional information.
Based on the results of the follow-up IMPEP review, the next IMPEP review will be scheduled in approximately 3 years.
