Dear Mr. Finerfrock:

We have reviewed the final changes to the Utah Administrative Code Title R313-36, ”Special

Requirements for Industrial Radiographic Operations,” R313-34 “Requirement for Irradiators,” and

R313-38, “Licenses and Radiation Safety Requirements for Well Logging” dated August 16, 2005. 

These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent Nuclear Regulatory Commission

(NRC) rules in 10 CFR Parts 34, 36, and 39 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 Philip Griffin on October 18, 2005.

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 Utah 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.hrsd.ornl.gov/nrc/rulemaking.htm. 

If you have any questions regarding the comments, the compatibility and health and safety

categories, or any of the NRC regulations used in the review, please contact me, or Andrea Jones at

301-415-2309 or ARJ@NRC.GOV.

Sincerely,
