Dear Mr. Bradt: 

We have reviewed the New York State Department of Labor legally binding license condition to 

implement increased controls for certain licensees that possess certain radioactive materials in 

quantities of concern, received by our office on November 16, 2005. This license condition was 

reviewed by comparison to the equivalent NRC requirements that were transmitted from this 

office on September 2, 2005. We discussed our review of the license condition with you on 

November 16, 2005. 

We have determined that the proposed New York State Department of Labor license condition, 

if issued without significant change, would meet the compatibility category ‘B’ designation in 

NRC Order EA-05-090. 

We appreciate receiving the final license condition issued to effected New York State 

Department of Labor licensees. 

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other New York State 

Department of Labor regulations and legal binding requirements, 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, will be posted on the STP website: 

http://www.hsrd.ornl.gov/nrc/rulemaking.htm. 

If you have any questions regarding the review, the compatibility categories, or any of the NRC 

requirements used in the review, please contact Mr. Andrew Mauer of my staff at 301-415-3962 

or e-mail: anm@nrc.gov.
