==Dear Ms. McBurney:==
We have reviewed the revisions to the Suggested State Regulations (SSRs) in Part C, Licensing of Radioactive Material received by our office on June 17, 2021, for federal concurrence. These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules in 10 CFR Parts 30, 31, 32, 40, and 70 included in Regulatory Amendment Tracking System Identification Numbers (RATS IDs) 2011-1, 2011-2, 2012-3, 2012-4, 2013-1, and 2013-2. We discussed our review of the regulations with Angela Leek on July 27, 2021.

UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Ms. Ruth E. McBurney Executive Director Conference of Radiation Control Program Directors, Inc.

1030 Burlington Lane, Suite 4B Frankfort, KY 40601

Dear Ms. McBurney:

We have reviewed the revisions to the Suggested State Regulations (SSRs) in Part C, Licensing of Radioactive Material received by our office on June 17, 2021, for federal concurrence. These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules in 10 CFR Parts 30, 31, 32, 40, and 70 included in Regulatory Amendment Tracking System Identification Numbers (RATS IDs) 2011-1, 2011-2, 2012-3, 2012-4, 2013-1, and 2013-2. We discussed our review of the regulations with Angela Leek on July 27, 2021.

As a result of our review, we have three comments related to compatibility, and one editorial comment that have been identified in the enclosure. Please note that we have limited our review to regulations required for compatibility and/or health and safety. Under our current procedure, a finding that the Conference of Radiation Control Program Directors (CRCPD)

SSRs meet the compatibility and health and safety categories of the equivalent NRC regulations may only be made based on a review of the final CRCPD regulations. However, we have determined that if your regulations were revised to incorporate our comments and without other significant change, they would meet the compatibility and health and safety categories established in the Office of Federal and State Materials and Environmental Management Programs (FSME) Procedure SA-200, Compatibility Categories and Health and Safety Identification for NRC Regulations and Other Program Elements.

We request that a copy of the revised as published regulations be provided to us for review and federal concurrence. As requested in Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) Procedure SA-201, Review of State Regulatory Requirements, please highlight the 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 CRCPD Suggested State 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:

McBurney 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 Cindy Flannery at 301-415-0223 (cindy.flannery@nrc.gov).
