P.O. Box 95026

Lincoln, Nebraska 68509-5026 

Dear Ms. Schmitt:

We have reviewed the proposed revisions to the Nebraska Radiological Health, Title 180 

Nebraska Administrative Code (NAC) 3, 7, 13, and 24, received by our office on 

November 5, 2019. 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) 2018-1 and 2018-2 as identified in the enclosed State 

Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review of the regulations with Deb 

Wilson on December 31, 2019.

As a result of our review, we have six comments that have been identified in the enclosure. 

Please note that we have limited our review to regulations required for compatibility and/or 

health and safety. Under our current procedure, a finding that the Nebraska regulations meet 

the compatibility and health and safety categories of the equivalent NRC regulation may only be 

made based on a review of the final Nebraska regulations. However, we have determined that 

if your proposed regulations were adopted, incorporating our comments 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 the proposed regulations are adopted and published as final regulations, 

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 final 

changes, and provide a copy to the Division of Materials Safety, Security, State, and Tribal

Programs, NMSS.

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other Nebraska 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. 
J. Schmitt -2-

If you have any questions regarding the review results, 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 Joe O’Hara at (301) 415-6854 (Joe.OHara@nrc.gov).

In numerous instances throughout Its 

equivalent regulations, Nebraska cites 

references to incorrect regulations as 

follows:

Section 180 NAC 07-051.01

references 180 NAC 051.03, which 

does not exist. 

In 180 NAC 07-060.05(A)(5), the

cross reference should be to 180 

NAC 07-060, which contains the 

calibration requirement, not to 180 

NAC 07-104, which contains the 

calibration recordkeeping 

requirement. 

Section180 NAC 7-084.01 references 

180 NAC 7-084.04, which does not 

exist.

Nebraska needs to make the changes 

indicated above in order to meet the

2018-1 B Written attestation requirement

The revised Part 35 does not require 

a written attestation for individuals 

who are board certified. Part 35 still 

requires written attestation for 

individuals who qualify by 

demonstrating training and 

experience (i.e., the “alternate 

pathway”), and the written attestation 

must contain certain statements. In 

several instances throughout 

Nebraska’s equivalent regulations, 

Nebraska incorrectly requires a 
STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS

written attestation for board certified 

individuals. For board certified 

individuals, Nebraska’s written 

attestation requirements are not 

essentially identical to NRC 

requirements. Additionally, certain of 

Nebraska’s written attestation 

requirements are not essentially 

identical to NRC requirements as 

follows:

Section 180 NAC 07-022.02(B), which 

contains the written attestation 

requirement for Radiation Safety 

Officers and Associate Radiation 

Safety Officers, contains several 

cross references to Nebraska

regulations that render this section 

incompatible with NRC regulations. 

The inclusion of these cross 

references adds several requirements 

to the written attestation requirement. 

First, 180 NAC 07-022.02(B) requires 

that the written attestation state that 

the individual satisfies 180 NAC 07-

022.02(B), which is the written 

attestation requirement itself. This 

cross reference should be deleted. 

Second, this section requires that the 

written attestation state that the 

individual satisfies 180 NAC 07-

022.01(A)(i) and (ii), which contain the 

requirements for the State to 

recognize a board’s certification 

process. This cross reference should 

be deleted. Third, this section 

requires that the written attestation 

state that the individual satisfies 180 

NAC 07.022.03, which contains the

the requirements for identification as 

a medical physicist, authorized user, 

authorized medical physicist, or 

authorized nuclear pharmacist. This 

cross reference should be deleted.

Section 180 NAC 07-022.03(A), which 

contains the requirements for

individuals who qualify by board 
STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS

certification, requires that these 

individuals satisfy the written 

attestation requirement in 180 NAC 

07-022.02(B). This cross reference to 

180 NAC 07-022.02(B) should be 

deleted. 

Section 180 NAC 07-023.01, which 

contains the requirements for 

individuals who qualify by board 

certification, states that these 

individuals must satisfy the written 

attestation requirement in 180 NAC 

07-023.03. This cross reference to 

180 NAC 07-023.03 should be 

deleted. 

Section 180 NAC 07-023.03, which 

contains the written attestation 

requirement for authorized medical 

physicists, requires that the written 

attestation state that the individual 

satisfies the requirements in 180 NAC 

07-023.01(A) and (B), which contain 

the requirements for the State to 

recognize a board’s certification 

process. These cross references to 

180 NAC 07-023.01(A) and (B) 

should be deleted. 

Section 180 NAC 07-024.01, which 

contains the requirements for an 

individual who qualifies as an 

authorized nuclear pharmacist 

through the board certification 

pathway, states that these individuals 

must satisfy the written attestation 

requirement in 180 NAC 07-024.03. 

This cross reference to 180 NAC 07-

024.03 should be deleted.

Section 180 NAC 07-024.03, which 

contains the written attestation 

requirement for authorized nuclear 

pharmacists, states that these 

individuals must satisfy 180 NAC 7-

024.01(A)(B), and (C), which contain 

the requirements for the State to 
STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS

recognize a board’s certification 

process. This cross reference to 180 

NAC 7-024.01(A)(B), and (C) should 

be deleted.

Section 180 NAC 07-047.03(B) and 

07-047.03(B)(ii), which contain the 

written attestation requirements for 

those authorized for imaging and 

localization studies, state that the 

written attestation must state that the 

individual has satisfactorily completed 

the requirements in 180 NAC 07-

047.01, which contains the board 

certification pathway requirements. 

The equivalent NRC regulation in 10 

CFR 35.290 requires written 

attestation that the individual 

completed the alternate pathway

requirements, not the board 

certification pathway requirements. 

Therefore, the cross references in 

180 NAC 07-047.03(B) and 07-

047.03(B)(ii) should be changed from 

180 NAC 07-047.01 to 180 NAC 07-

047.03(A), which contains the 

alternate pathway requirements.

Section 180 NAC 064.02(C), which 

contains the written attestation 

requirements, contains a cross 

reference to 180 NAC 064.01, which 

contains the requirements for an 

individual who is already identified as 

an authorized user. A written 

attestation is not required for 

individuals who are already identified 

as an authorized user. Therefore, the

cross reference to 180 NAC 064.01

should be deleted.

Nebraska needs to make the changes

indicated above in order to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.50, 35.51,

35.55, 35.57, 35.290, and 35.491.

Section 180 NAC 07-026.01 requires 

that RSOs and authorized medical

physicists identified in this paragraph 

must satisfy 180 NAC 07-022 or 07-

023. The NRC requirement in 10 

CFR § 35.57(a)(1) states that, 

“...except the Radiation Safety 

Officers and authorized medical 

physicists identified in this paragraph 

must meet the training requirements 

in § 35.50(d) or § 35.51(c), as 

appropriate, for any material or uses 

for which they were not authorized 

prior to this date.” To be compatible 

with this requirement, the cross 

references in 180 NAC 07-026.01 

should be to 180 NAC 7-022.04 and 

7-023.04, respectively.

Nebraska needs to make the changes
