UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Mr. Santiago Rodriguez, Bureau Chief Radiation Control Bureau New Mexico Department of Environment P.O. Box 5469 Santa Fe, NM 87502-5469

Dear Mr. Rodriguez:

We have reviewed the final revisions to the New Mexico regulations 20.3.3.,20.3.4., 20.3.10, 20.3.13, and 20.3.30. received by our office on October 26, 2021. These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules and the requirements of Regulation Amendment Tracking System Identification Number (RATS ID) 2015-5. We discussed our review of the regulations with you on January 5, 2022.

As a result of our review we have no comments. Please note that we have limited our review to regulations required for compatibility and/or health and safety. We have determined that the regulations, as proposed, meet the compatibility and health and safety categories established in the Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) Procedure SA-200, Compatibility Categories and Health and Safety Identification for NRC Regulations and Other Program Elements. We request that when the proposed regulations are adopted and published as final regulations, a copy of the as published regulations be provided to us for review. As requested in NMSS Procedure SA-201, Review of State Regulatory Requirements, please highlight any final changes and provide a copy to Division of Materials Safety, Security, State, and Tribal Programs, NMSS.

The State Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other New Mexico regulations, as indicated. Please let us know if you note any inaccuracies or have any comments on the information contained in the SRS Data Sheet. This letter, including the SRS Data Sheet, is posted on the NMSS State Communication Portal:
