$UMMARY OF i j THE U.S NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMM!ssION'S AGREEMENT STATE PROGRAM  ;

i I t t i nuclear energy Prior to enactment activities in the United of the Atomic States were Enerpargely Act ofconfine 1954,d to the Federal government. The Act made it possible for private commercial firms

, to enter the field for the first time. Because of the hazards

! essociated with nuclear materials Congress determined that these ,

activ"*" should be regulated under a Federal licensing system to protes e; health and safety of workers in the nuclear industry and

, the pu .c. The NRC is the Federal agency charged with this

! respont bility, i -

l Although protection of the public health and safety has traditionally i beer a State responsibility, the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 did not i specify such a role for the States in nuclear. matters. This policy .. ,.

! was changed in 1959 when Cor.gress enacted Section 274 of the Atomic l Energy Act. Section 274 spells out a State role and provided a statutory ^

basis under which the federal government can relinquish to the states j portions of its regulatory authority. The 1959 amendment made it possibl

for the Statss to license and regulate byproduct sterial (radioisotopes)g 1

source material-(the raw mat j of special nuclear uterial.grials The of Comission atomic energy), is required and small however, quantities to retain

regul6 tory authority over the regulation of nuclear faci 1Ities vital to the
national common defense and security and certain types of radioactive wastes. ,

! The Atomic Energy Act was ar.anded in 1978 by the passage of the Uranium Mill l Tailings Radiation Control Act (UMTRCA) of 1978 which requires NRC Agreement l States regulating uranium and thorium tailing resulting from recovery.

l operations to adopt certain technical and procedural requirements. The l 1978 an,endment also requires I;RC to periodically review Agreement State l programs for adequacy and-ccmpatibility.

I i Section 274j of the Atomic Energy Act provides that the NRC may terminate its Agreement with a State if the Cossnission finds that such termir.ation i -

l- 1 In 1976, Congress enacted:the Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation

among other t11ngs, added to Control Act of ofbyproduct 1978 (UMTRCA) material which,%ilings or wastes produced by
i. the category j the extraction or concentration of uranium or thcrium from any ore processed primarily for its source material content."

l 2. In 1981, the Cosmission amended its policy Statement, " Criteria for i Guidance of States and NRC in Discontinuance of NRC Authority and l Assumption Thereof by States Through. Agreement" to allow a State to

! seek an' Amendment for the regulation of low-level radioactive waste

2 is necessary to protect the public health and safety. In 1980, Section 274j was amended to authorize the comission to temporarily suspend all or part of an Agreement with a State in the case of an emergency situation where the State failed to take necessary action. Such suspensions may remain in effect only for the duration of the emergenc A copy of Section 274 of the Act, as amended, is attached (Attachment 1)y. .

The mechanism for the transfer of NRC authority to a State to regulate the radiological health and safety aspects of nuclear materials s an l Agreement between the Governor of the State and the Consiission. Criteria

! for such Agreements have been published by NRC as a policy Statement in-the federal _ Register (Attachment 2). A copy of the most recent Agreement with Illinois is attached for illustration (Attachment 3). Before actually i signing the document, the Comission, by statute, must determine that the l State's radiation control program is compatible with the Comission's,

! meets the applicable parts of Section 274 and that it is adequate to

protect the public health and safety. For its part, the State o

[ establishes its authority to enter such an Agreement by passing enabling

! legislation.

At present, 2B States have entered into such A l

These States now regulate over 65% of the 0 licensees for 24 Obreements w byproduct, l

scurce material, and special nuclear material in the United States. In

1981 the Comission determined that qualified States may also enter into limited agreements for regulation of low-level waste in permanent disposal facilities.

Each Agreement provides that the State will use its best efforts to maintain continuing compatibility with the NRC's program. The NRC maintains a continuing relationship with each Agreement State to

( assure certinued compatibility of the State's regulatory program and i its adequacy to protect health and safety. This relationship includes:

l exchange of information on a current basis covering regulations, 1.icensing, l inspection and enforcement data; consultation on special licensing,

! inspection enforcement and other regulatory problems; and an annual I

meeting of,all Agreement States to consider regulatory matters of comon interest. Special technical assistance is routinely provided to the States upon request.

t

! As mandated by the Atomic Enery Act, NRC conducts onsite, in-depth j program reviews periodically o< each Agreement State in which l

3 Colorado Florida Geor is, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California 1111nois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky Nebraska Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Caro 1Ina, l North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, l Utah, and Washington.

l organizational, administrative, personnel, regulatory, licensing, i compliance and enforcement program areas are reviewed. Selected i Agreement State licensing and com>11ance casework is reviewed in detail.

State inspectors are accompanied >y NRC staff on selected inspections of
State licensees. A copy of the guidelines used which NRC uses in i

conducting such reviews have been published in the federal Decister as a

! Concission Policy Statement (Attachment 4).

' NRC provides a wide spectrum of training for Agreement State personnel.

Examples are short-term courses in health physics, radiography radiation i safety, nuclear medicine, licensing, inspection procedures radiological

engineering,welllogging,transportationofnuclearmaterIalsand ,

i project management for the licensing cf low-level waste disposal l

] facilities. Travel costs and per dlem for these training sessions are l paid by NRC.

.m , ,, -

I Althcugh other Federal agencies, such as she Environmental Protection 1 Agency, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Department of 4

Transportation are also involved in the control of radiation hazards, NRC's Agretaient State Program serves as a focal point for Federal-State cooperation in radiation control.

4 The NRC State Agreements Program is administered by State Programs in the Office of Governmental and Public Affairs. This Commission level i

office was established as part of an overall NRC reorganization which bicar'e effective April 12, 1987. The NRC Regional Offices participate e

in iraplementation of the State Agreements Program.

The staffs of the Office of Governinental and Public Affairs and the i

Regional Offices are ready to meet with Governors, State agencies, St6te legislative committees, State advisory groups, and others to explain fully the NRC Agreement States program. They can provide descriptive materials about these programs and model State acts for regulatory legislation and will also arrange meetings with other NRC staff merbers on specialized subjects, as appropriate.

What are the advantages for a State that takes over the Cosnission's regulatory authority as described? The principal advantages of Agreement State status are:

(a) NRC's authority does not include regulation of X-ray machines and other radiation materials or radium. produging equipment,f Regulation o these sources for radiationaccelerator is, and always has been, primarily the. responsibility of the States.

Many States now exercise surveillance over these sources of radiation

4 which in the aggreflate, are responsible for over 75% of the public's emptqure to radiat'on, other than from background. Thus by assuming the tthority which th! NRC is authorized to relinquish,,a state is ai'J to have, as part of its public health system, a complete and Comprehensive program for radiation safety.

(b) Many facilities, including medical institutions and physicians, use radioisotopes as well as x-ray machines and radium. A State regulatury system which covers all such radiation sources enables rest users to deal with a single agency rather than with a Federal agency for a part and the State for the remainder.

(c) An Agreement with NRC enables a State to make its own licensing decisions and, in doing so, to take into account local conditions.

(d) The. proximity of licensed users of radioactive materials to the regulating agency has been cited as having significant advantages for both the users and the agency.

(e) Entering into such an Agreement with NRC would be consistent with a serious interest of a State in being knowledgeable about all sources of radiation located within its boundaries.

(f) An Agreement with NRC develops and enhances the core of radiation professionals at the State level who can respond to inquiries and incidents.

(g) An Agreement with NRC enhances the core of knowledgeable people at the State level who can respond to inquiries and incidents.

Adniinistrative costs that are incurred by a State becoming an Agreement State varies from State to State, depending , among other factors, upon whether or not the State already has a radiation control program covering sources of radiation not regulated by the NRC, i.e., x-ray machines accelerator-produced radioactive materials and radium. Where this is the case, the incremental costs would be less than if the State previously had only a limited or voluntary radiation control program. As a rule of thumb 2.0-1.5 staff-years per 100 licenses is needed to effectively administer the program assumed from the NRC. This is a rather general index and actual staffing needs will vary according to the partlcular circumstances in any given State. Further, those $tates having major licensed facilities in their state such as low-level radioact' ve waste

. disposal facilities and uranium mills, will need additional resources.

NRC staff can provide further guidance on staffing requirements for regulating in these areas.

5 NRC charges licensees licensing and inspection fees. Whether or not an Agreement State charges fees is a matter of choice for the State. NRC does not provide funding to States for routine propram costs. Some Agreement States fund their programs out of genera revenues and plan to continue doing so. The majority of the Agreement states, however, have authorized collection of user fees as a means of assuring an adequate fundint base. As a result of these states' foes and those of NRC over two-th rds of the licensees in the United States are licensed by a,gencies authorized to charge user fees.- NRC has prepared model State legislation which includes authorization for a fee systes. NRC staff can assist States-in developing fee systems. ,

-the year of the first State The Agreement Agreement, State has been thatexperience since 1962,lly conduct effective the States genera radiation control programs. When major program deficiencies are noted by NRC, technical advice, assistance and training are offered by- NRC (with its resources xaintaining adequate staffing levels, a).- The main reflection areasalary of State of concern is structures and funding. On the other hand, Agreenient States typically excel in having highly trainined staff and by conducting more frequent inspections than NRC.
