' Texas Department of Health 1100 West 49th Street -

Austin, TX 78756-3189

Dear Mr. Ratliff:

As requested, we have reviewed the proposed regulations, Section 289.202 Standards for Protection A9ainst Radiation, that allows exemption of cesium-137 contaminated emission control dust and other incident-related material from certain disposal requirements under

- specific handling, treatment, transport, and radiation dose conditions. They were sent to us by E-mail on March 26,1998 by Cynthia Cardwell.

We note that NRC has no regulation equivalent to that proposed in paragraph (2) of Section 289.202. Therefore, we have no compatibility or health and safety designation for this regulation.

We conducted a review of the regulation in comparison with the final staff technical position on the subject (62 EB 13176). As a result of our review we have no comments. The provisions Texas adopted from the final staff technical position are similar and appear reasonable.

if you have any questions regarding our review, please contact me or Dr. Stephen N. Salomon of my staff at (301) 415-2368, or SNS@NRC. GOV.

Sincerely, Paul H. Lohaus, Deputy Director Office of State Programs Distnbution DIR RF (8S-96)
