Dear Mr. Fletcher:

As requested, we have reviewed the proposed transportation and record keeping requirements for termination or transfer of licensed activities amendments to the Maryland State Regulations

' for the Control of lonizing Radiation Part T and Sections C.32, C.38, D.1109, and D.1301 dated February 22,1999.' The regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent NRC regulations in 10 CFR Parts 30 and 71. We have also discussed our review of the regulations with Ray Manley on March 10,1999.

A-s a result of our review, we have two comments that have been identified in the enclosure.

Please note that we have limited our review to regulationsi required for compatibility and/or health and safety. Under our current procedure, a finding that a State regulation meets the compatibility and health and safety categories of the equivalent NRC regulation may only be made based on a review of the final State regulation. However, we have determined that if your proposed regulations were adopted incorporating the comments and without other significant change, they would meet the compatibility and health and safety categories established in OSP Procedure SA-200 (formerly, B.7).

We request that when th'e proposed regulations are adopted and published as final regulations, l

a copy.of the "as published" regulations be provided for our review. As requested in OSP t

Procedure SA-201, Review of State Reaulations (November 10,1998), please highlight the final changes and send one copy in a computer readable format, if possible.

if you have any questions regarding the comments, the compatibility and health and safety categories, or any of the NRC regulations used in this review, please contact me or Duncan 1
