Dear Mr. Owen:

We have reviewed the final revisions to the Ohio regulations 3701:1-40-16 of the Ohio

Administrative Code, received by our office on April 11, 2007. These regulations were reviewed

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

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

Status (SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review of the regulations with Michael Snee on

April 24, 2007.

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 Federal and State Materials and Environmental Management Programs (FSME)

Procedure SA-200.

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other Ohio 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 FSME 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 Kathleen

Schneider, State Regulation Review Coordinator at 301-415-2320 (email: kxs@nrc.gov) or

Monica Orendi at 301-415-3938 (email: mlo1@nrc.gov).
