Dear Mr. Wright:

We have reviewed the final revisions to the Illinois regulations in Part 341, Radioactive Material

Transportation, received by our office on June 14, 2006. These regulations were reviewed by

comparison to the equivalent Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules in 10 CFR Part 71

and the requirements of one amendment identified in the enclosed State Regulation Status

(SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review of the regulations with Gibb Vinson on July 17,

2006.

As a result of our review, we have no comments. Please note that we have limited our review

to regulations required for compatibility and/or health and safety. We have determined that the

regulations, as adopted, meet the compatibility and health and safety categories established in

the Office of State and Tribal Programs (STP) Procedure SA-200.

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other Illinois 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 STP website: http://www.hsrd.ornl.gov/nrc/rulemaking.htm. 

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 me, or Mr. Richard

Blanton at 301-415-2322 or by e-mail at rlb@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,
