Dear Mr. O’Dowd:

We have reviewed the New Hampshire commitment to implement increased controls for certain

licensees that possess certain radioactive materials in quantities of concern, received by our

office on November 14, 2005. This commitment noted that New Hampshire will use a license

condition identical to that provided by the Organization of Agreement States, Inc. (OAS) on

September 6, 2005. The OAS suggested 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 15, 2005.

We have determined that the proposed New Hampshire 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 Hampshire 

licensees.

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

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.hrsd.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.

Sincerely,
