UNITED STATESNUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSIONOFFICE OF FEDERAL AND STATE MATERIALSAND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS WASHINGTON, DC 20555December 13, 2006NRC REGULATORY ISSUE SUMMARY 2006-27AVAILABILITY OF NRC 313A SERIES OF FORMSAND GUIDANCE FOR THEIR COMPLETIONADDRESSEESAll NRC medical-use licensees, commercial nuclear pharmacies, and U.S. Nuclear RegulatoryCommission (NRC) Master Materials Licensees. All Agreement State Radiation Control ProgramDirectors and State Liaison Officers. INTENTNRC is issuing this Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) to inform addressees of the availability ofthe NRC 313A series of forms and the guidance for the completion of these forms. No specific
action or written response is required. NRC is providing this RIS to the Agreement States for
their information and for distribution to their medical licensees as appropriate.BACKGROUNDA person wishing to be licensed to possess, use, or distribute licensed material must submit anapplication that will permit NRC to determine whether the applicant has training, experience,
equipment, facilities, and procedures, for the use of radioactive material, that are adequate to
protect the public health and safety. NRC Form 313, "Application for Material License," which
may also include the NRC Form 313A series of forms, for medical use and commercial nuclear-
pharmacy applicants, is used to provide the information required. The information provided in
the NRC Form 313A series of forms permits NRC to determine whether the applicant has
training and experience, for the medical or commercial nuclear-pharmacy uses of radioactive
material, that are adequate to protect the public health and safety. SUMMARY OF ISSUEThis RIS addresses the revision of the single NRC Form 313A used by medical RadiationSafety Officers, medical physicists, nuclear pharmacists, and nine different types of physicians,into six distinct new NRC Form 313As, with the following titles:NRC FORM 313A(RSO), "RADIATION SAFETY OFFICER TRAINING ANDEXPERIENCE AND PRECEPTOR ATTESTATION [10 CFR 35.50]";NRC FORM 313A(AMP), "AUTHORIZED MEDICAL PHYSICIST TRAINING ANDEXPERIENCE AND PRECEPTOR ATTESTATION [10 CFR 35.51]";ML063110176
RIS 2006-27Page 2 of 4NRC FORM 313A(ANP), "AUTHORIZED NUCLEAR PHARMACIST TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE AND PRECEPTOR ATTESTATION [10 CFR 35.55]";NRC FORM 313A(AUD), "AUTHORIZED USER TRAINING AND EXPERIENCEAND PRECEPTOR ATTESTATION (for uses defined under 35.100, 35.200, and
35.500) [10 CFR 35.190, 35.290, and 35.590]";NRC FORM 313A(AUT), "AUTHORIZED USER TRAINING AND EXPERIENCEAND PRECEPTOR ATTESTATION (for uses defined under 35.300) [10 CFR
35.390, 35.392, 35.394, and 35.396]"; andNRC FORM 313A(AUS), "AUTHORIZED USER TRAINING AND EXPERIENCEAND PRECEPTOR ATTESTATION (for uses defined under 35.400 and 35.600)
[10 CFR 35.490, 35.491, and 35.690]."NRC Form 313 must be submitted by all applicants seeking a license for the use of byproductmaterial. The new NRC Form 313A series of forms may be used by medical use applicants to
document training and experience and preceptor attestations for individuals seeking recognition
as a Radiation Safety Officer (RSO); Authorized Medical Physicist (AMP); Authorized Nuclear
Pharmacist (ANP); or Authorized User (AU). The information required to complete the forms is
unchanged from the information required for the old NRC Form 313A and is aligned with the
requirements in the 2005 revision of 10 CFR Part 35.Medical use applicants may elect to use the appropriate form from the NRC Form 313A series,for each new individual, the first time that individual is seeking to be identified as an RSO, AMP,
ANP, or AU, or when one of these individuals is seeking to be identified for a new authorization
on a limited specific medical license. Broad-scope medical use applicants may use the NRCForm 313A(RSO), when requesting an individual be identified as a new RSO or when adding an
additional RSO authorization for the individual. Commercial nuclear-pharmacy applicants mayalso use NRC Form 313A(ANP) when requesting an individual be identified for the first time as
an ANP.Revised guidance is also attached to aid applicants in completing the six forms in the NRCForm 313A series. The new guidance should facilitate the use of the new forms during new
license applications, license amendments, and renewals.

Licensing Guidance for using the
NRC FORM 313A Series of FormsDocumentation of Training and Experience to Identify Individuals on aLicense as Authorized User, Radiation Safety Officer, Authorized Nuclear
Pharmacist, or Authorized Medical PhysicistI.Experienced Authorized Users, Authorized Medical Physicists,Authorized Nuclear Pharmacists, or Radiation Safety OfficerAn applicant or licensee that is adding an experienced authorized user, authorized medicalphysicist, authorized nuclear pharmacist, or Radiation Safety Officer to its medical use licenseonly needs to provide evidence that the individual is listed on a medical use license issued bythe Commission or Agreement State, a permit issued by a Commission master material
licensee, a permit issued by a Commission or Agreement State broad scope licensee, or a
permit issued by a Commission master material broad scope permittee before October 25,
2005 provided that the individual is authorized for the same types of use(s) requested in the
application under review, and the individual meets the recentness of training criteria described
in 10 CFR 35.59. When adding an experienced authorized nuclear pharmacist to the license,
the applicant also may provide evidence that the individual is listed on an NRC or Agreement
State commercial nuclear pharmacy license or identified as an authorized nuclear pharmacist
by a commercial nuclear pharmacy authorized to identify authorized nuclear pharmacists. For
individuals who have been previously authorized by, but not listed on, the commercial nuclear
pharmacy license, medical broad scope license, or master materials license medical broad
scope permit, the applicant should submit either verification of previous authorizations granted
or evidence of acceptable training and experience.II.Applications that Include Individuals for New Authorized User,Authorized Medical Physicist, Authorized Nuclear Pharmacist or
Radiation Safety Officer Recognition by NRCApplicants should submit the appropriate completed form in the NRC Form 313A series to showthat the individuals meet the correct training and experience criteria in 10 CFR Part 35 subparts
B, D, E, F, G. and H. For the applicant's convenience, the NRC Form 313A series has been
separated into six separate forms. The forms are NRC FORM 313A (RSO) for the Radiation
Safety Officer; NRC FORM 313A (AMP) for the authorized medical physicist; NRC FORM
313A (ANP) for the authorized nuclear pharmacist; NRC FORM 313A (AUD) for the authorized
user of the medical uses included in 35.100, 35.200, and/or 35.500; NRC FORM 313A (AUT)
for the authorized user for the medical use included in 35.300; and NRC FORM 313A (AUS) for
the authorized user for the medical uses included in 35.400 and/or 35.600.
Enclosure 2RIS 2006-XX Page 2 of 16 There are two primary training and experience routes to qualify an individual as an authorized user, authorized medical physicist, authorized nuclear pharmacist, or Radiation Safety Officer. The first is by means of certification by a board recognized by NRC and listed on the NRC web
site as provided in 10 CFR 35.50(a), 35.51(a), 35.55(a), 35.190(a), 35.290(a), 35.390(a),
35.392(a), 35.394(a), 35,490(a), 35.590(a), or 35.690(a). Preceptor attestations must also be
submitted for all individuals to qualify under Subparts B and D through H. Additional training
may need to also be documented for Radiation Safety Officers, authorized medical physicists,
and 35.600 authorized users. The second route is by meeting the structured educational
program, supervised work experience, and preceptor attestation requirements in 10 CFR Part 35, subparts B, D, E, F, G, and H.In some cases there may be additional training and experience routes for recognizedauthorized users, authorized nuclear pharmacists, authorized medical physicists or Radiation
Safety Officers to seek additional authorizations.III. Recentness of TrainingThe required training and experience, including board certification, described in 10 CFR Part 35 must be obtained within the 7 years preceding the date of the application, or the individual
must document having had related continuing education, retraining, and experience since
obtaining the required training and experience. Examples of acceptable continuing educationand experience include the following:1.Successful completion of classroom and laboratory review courses that include radiationsafety practices relative to the proposed type of authorized medical use;2.Practical and laboratory experience with patient procedures using radioactive materialfor the same use(s) for which the applicant is requesting authorization;3.Practical and laboratory experience under the supervision of an AU at the same oranother licensed facility that is authorized for the same use(s) for which the applicant is
requesting authorization; and4.For therapy devices, experience with the therapy unit and/or comparable linearaccelerator experience and completion of an in-service review of operating and
emergency procedures relative to the therapy unit to be used by the applicant.IV. General Instruct
ions and Guidance for Filling Out NRC Form313A SeriesIf the applicant is proposing an individual for more than one type of authorization, the applicantmay need to either submit multiple NRC Form 313A series forms or fill out some sections more
than once. For example, an applicant that requests a physician be authorized for 35.200 and
35.300 medical uses and as the RSO, needs to provide three completed NRC Form 313A
series forms, i.e., NRC Form 313A (RSO), NRC Form 313A (AUD) and NRC Form 313A (AUT).
Enclosure 2RIS 2006-XX Page 3 of 16 Also, if the applicant requests a physician be authorized for both high dose rate remoteafterloading and gamma stereotactic radiosurgery under 35.600, only one form, NRC Form
313A (AUS) needs to be completed, but one part (i.e., "Supervised Work and Clinical
Experience") must be filled out twice.If you need to identify a license and it is an Agreement State license, provide a copy of the license. If you need to identify a Master Materials License permit, provide a copy of the permit.
If you need to identify an individual (i.e., supervising individual or preceptor) who is authorized
under a broad scope license or broad scope permit of a Master Materials License, provide a
copy of the permit issued by the broad scope licensee/permittee. Alternatively, you may
provide a statement signed by the Radiation Safety Officer or chairperson of the RadiationSafety Committee similar to the following: "__________(name of supervising individual or
preceptor) is authorized under _______________(name of licensee/permittee) broad scope
license number__________ to use_________(materials) during ____________(time frame)".INTRODUCTORY INFORMATIONName of individualProvide the individual's complete name so that NRC can distinguish the training and experiencereceived from that received by others with a similar name.Note: Do not include personal or private information (e.g., date of birth, social security number,home address, personal phone number) as part of your qualification documentation.State or territory where licensedNRC requires physicians, dentists, podiatrists, and pharmacists to be licensed by a state orterritory of the United States, the District of Columbia, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico to
prescribe drugs in the practice of medicine, practice of dentistry, practice of podiatry, or practice
of pharmacy, respectively (see definition of "Physician" in 10 CFR 35.2).Requested Authorization(s)Check all authorizations that apply and fill in the blanks as provided.Part I. Training and ExperienceThere are always multiple pathways provided for each training and experience section. Select the applicable one.
Enclosure 2RIS 2006-XX Page 4 of 16 Item 1. Board CertificationThe applicant or licensee may use this pathway if the proposed new authorized individual is
certified by a board recognized by NRC (to confirm that NRC recognizes that boards
certifications see NRC's web page http://www.nrc.gov/materials/miau/med-use-toolkit.html
).Note: An individual that is board eligible will not be considered for this pathway until the individual is actually board certified. Further, individuals holding other board certifications willalso not be considered for this pathway.The applicant or licensee will need to provide a copy of the board certification and othertraining, experience, or clinical casework as indicated on the specific form of the NRC Form
313A series. All applicants under this pathway (except for 35.500 uses) must submit a completed Part IIPreceptor Attestation.Item 2. Current Authorized Individuals Seeking Additional AuthorizationsProvide the information requested for training, experience, or clinical casework as indicated onthe specific form of the NRC Form 313A series. (Note: This section does not includeindividuals who are authorized only on foreign licenses.) All applicants under this pathway must submit a completed Part II Preceptor Attestation.
Item 3. Training and Experience for Proposed New Authorized IndividualsThis pathway is used for those individuals not listed on the license as an authorized individual,who cannot meet requirements for the board certification pathway. The proposed authorized individual is not required to receive the classroom and laboratorytraining, supervised work experience, or clinical casework at any one location or at one time,
therefore space is provided to identify each location and date of training or experience. The
date should be provided in the month/day/year format. The clock hours must be indicated for
those individuals that must meet a minimum number of training and work experience hours. Thespecific number of hours needed for each training element will depend upon the type of
approval sought.Note: Classroom and Laboratory Training or Didactic Training may be provided at medicalteaching/university institutions. In some cases, a course may be provided for that particular
need and taught in consecutive days; in others, the period may be a semester or quarter as
part of the formal curriculum. The required "structural educational programs" or "training" may
be obtained in any number of settings, locations, and educational situations.
Enclosure 2RIS 2006-XX Page 5 of 16 The NRC expects that clinical laboratory hours credited toward meeting the requirements forclassroom and laboratory training will involve training in radiation safety aspects of the medicaluse of byproduct material. The NRC recognizes, for example, that physicians in training may
not dedicate all of their clinical laboratory time specifically to the subject areas covered in thesesubparts and will be attending to other clinical matters involving the medical use of the material
under the supervision of an AU (e.g., reviewing case histories or interpreting scans). However,
those hours spent on other duties, not related to radiation safety, should not be counted towardthe minimum number of hours of required classroom and laboratory training in radiation safety.This type of supervised work experience, even though not specifically required by the NRC,may be counted toward the supervised work experience to obtain the required total hours of
training.Similarly, the NRC recognizes that clinicians will not dedicate all of their time in trainingspecifically to the subject areas described and will be attending to other clinical matters. The
NRC will broadly interpret "classroom training" to include various types of instruction received
by candidates for approval, including online training, as long as the subject matter relates toradiation safety and safe handling of byproduct material.Note: If the proposed new authorized individual had more than one supervisor, provide theinformation requested for each supervising individual.Part II. Preceptor AttestationThe NRC defines the term "preceptor" in 10 CFR 35.2, "Definitions," to mean "an individual who
provides, directs, or verifies training and experience required for an individual to become anauthorized user, an authorized medical physicist, an authorized nuclear pharmacist, or a
Radiation Safety Officer." While the supervising individual for the work experience may also bethe preceptor, the preceptor does not have to be the supervising individual as long as the
preceptor directs or verifies the training and experience required. The preceptor must attest in
writing regarding the training and experience of any individual to serve as an authorized
individual and attest that the individual has satisfactorily completed the appropriate training andexperience criteria and has achieved a level of competency or a level of radiation safety
knowledge sufficient to function independently. This preceptor also has to meet specific
requirements.The NRC may require supervised work experience conducted under the supervision of anauthorized individual in a licensed material use program. In this case, a supervisor is an
individual who provides frequent direction, instruction, and direct oversight of the student as thestudent completes the required work experience in the use of byproduct material.Supervision may occur at various licensed facilities, from a large teaching university hospital toa small private practice.
Enclosure 2RIS 2006-XX Page 6 of 16 The NRC Form 313A series Part II - Preceptor Attestation pages have multiple sections. Thepreceptor must complete an attestation of the proposed user's training, experience, and
competency to function independently, as well as provide information concerning his/her own
qualifications and sign the attestation. Because there are a number of different pathways to
obtain the required training and experience for different authorized individuals, specific
instructions are provided below for each NRC 313A series form.V.RADIATION SAFETY OFFICER - Specific Instructions and
