Dear Mr. Conley:

The Office of Federal and State Materials and Environmental Management Programs (FSME)

has reviewed your letter dated September 19, 2007. This letter was a response to our letter

dated August 30, 2007, which transmitted our comments on Kansas’s final regulations

addressing 10 CFR 20.2207, “Reports of Transactions Involving Nationally Tracked Sources”. 

We discussed our review of the regulations with you on October 30, 2007.

The additional information provided in your letter has enabled us to verify that your regulations

are essentially identical to the Compatibility Category B designation assigned to 10 CFR Part

20.2207. 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 proposed, meet the compatibility and health and safety

categories established in the FSME Procedure SA-200. 

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of other Kansas regulations. 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 Web Site:

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

If you have any questions regarding the review, 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
