UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 March 10, 2021 Mr. Ty Howard, Director Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control Utah Dept. of Environmental Quality P.O. Box 144880 Salt Lake City, UT 84114-4880 We have reviewed the final revisions to the Utah Administrative Code (Radiation Control Rules)R313-36, Special Requirements for Industrial Radiographic Operations, and R313-37, Physical Protection of Category 1 and Category 2 Quantities of Radioactive Material, received by our office on February 5, 2021. These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules and Regulation Amendment Tracking System Identification Numbers (RATS IDs) 2018-2, 2018-3, and 2019-1 as identified in the enclosed State Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review of the regulations with Tom Ball on March 2, 2021.

As a result of our review, we have one comment that has been identified in the enclosure.

Please note that we have limited our review to regulations required for compatibility and/or health and safety. We have determined that if these regulations are revised, incorporating our comment and without other significant change, they would 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.

We request that when you revise your regulations to address our comment, a copy of the as published regulations be provided to us for review. As requested in NMSS Procedure SA-201, Review of State Regulatory Requirements, please highlight the location of any changes made by Utah, in response to our comments, and provide a copy to Division of Materials Safety, Security, State, and Tribal Programs, NMSS. The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other Utah 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.

T. Howard If you have any questions regarding the comments, 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).

However, in R313 100(4)(a)(ii) and (iii), Utah indicates that these notifications are to be sent to their Director.

The notifications in 10 CFR 71.97 need to be sent to the NRC as well as the State agency. Therefore, Utah needs to delete the statements in R313-19-100(4)(a)(ii) and (iii).

Utah needs to make the above change in order to meet the Compatibility Category B designation assigned to 10 CFR 71.97.
