UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 March 28, 2019 Mr. Gonzalo L. Perez, Chief Radiological Health Branch Division of Food, Drug & Radiation Safety Californa Department of Health Services P.O. Box 997414, MS-7610 Sacramento, CA 95899-7414

Dear Mr. Perez:

We have reviewed the final revisions to the California regulations in California Code of Regulations Sections 30195.1, 30194, 30197.1-30197.7, 30253, and 30256, received by our office on March 6, 2019. These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules and Regulation Amendment Tracking System Identification Number (RATS ID) 2011-1 as identified in the enclosed State Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review of the regulations with Phillip Scott on March 26, 2019.

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 adopted, 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.

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other California 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: https://scp.nrc.gov/rulemaking.html.

G. Perez If you have any questions regarding the review results, the compatibility and health and safety categories, or any of the NRC regulations used in the review, please contact Michelle Beardsley, State Regulation Review Coordinator, at (301) 415-0275 (michelle.beardsley@nrc.gov) or Stephen Poy at (301) 415-7135 (stephen.poy@nrc.gov).

Sincerely,
