LICENSE AMENDMENT 2CHANGE OF RADIATION SAFETY OFFICER I. INTRODUCTION By letter dated July 7, 2020, Purdue University submitted a License Amendment Request for changes to its application. Specifically, the change requested approval of a new radiation safety officer (RSO), filling the position being vacated through retirement. The letter is available in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) under Accession No. ML20199M175.
II. DISCUSSION The regulation in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Paragraph 70.23(a) states that an application for a license will be approved if the Commission determines, in part, that the applicant is qualified by reason of training and experience to use licensed material for the purpose requested. The staff finds the qualifications of the new RSO to be acceptable.
Specifically, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff makes the following findings:
The prospective RSO is identified as Mr. Matthew M. Tang. Mr. Tang has a Master of Science in Health Physics, completed in 2013. He has served as the Assistant RSO for Purdue University since July 2013. He is a Certified Health Physicist with the American Board of Health Physics since 2018. His qualification has been reviewed and approved by the Radiation Safety Committee, which oversees a byproduct radioactive materials license of broad scope with the State of Indiana (Materials License 13-02812-04). Indiana is not an Agreement State with the NRC. The request documents that the prospective RSOs qualifications are consistent with the RSO training requirements of NUREG-1556, Volume 11, Revision 1, Consolidated Guidance About Material License, Program-Specific Guidance About License of Broad Scope (ADAMS Accession No. ML17059D332).
The NRC staff has reviewed the training and experience of the proposed RSO against the minimum qualification requirements in the original application (ADAMS Accession No. ML113340398 dated July 31, 2009), and finds them acceptable.
III. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW A proposed action is excluded from an environmental review under 10 CFR 51.22(c)(14)(v) if it is an amendment to a license issued pursuant to 10 CFR Part 70 authorizing the use of radioactive materials for research and development and for educational purposes. The changes to the request meet this requirement.
The NRC staff determined that the proposed action does not adversely impact public health and safety or the environment, and is categorically excluded from the requirement to conduct an Enclosure 1
environmental review. Therefore, in accordance with 10 CFR 51.22(c)(14)(v), neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is warranted for this action.
IV. CONCLUSION As stated above, the NRC staff finds that the new RSO is qualified by reason of training and experience to use licensed material for the education, research, and training activities authorized by the license.
