Radioactive Materials Section 

Illinois Emergency Management Agency

Springfield, IL 62704 

Dear Mr. Vinson: 

We have reviewed the final and proposed final changes to the Illinois regulations in 32 Ill. Adm. 

Code 330 and 335, received by our office on August 13, 2008. These regulations were 

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

CFR Parts 20, 30, 32, 35, 40, 70 and the requirements of the two amendments identified in the 

enclosed State Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review of the 

regulations with you on August 29, 2008 and September 17, 2008. 

As a result of our review, we have no comments on your final and proposed final changes to 

your regulations. Please note that we have limited our review to regulations required for 

compatibility and/or health and safety. Under our current procedure, a finding that the Illinois 

regulations meet the compatibility and health and safety categories of the equivalent NRC 

regulation may only be made based on a review of the final Illinois regulations. We have 

determined that if your proposed final revisions are incorporated into your regulations without 

significant change, they would 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. 

We request that when the proposed final revisions are incorporated into your regulations and 

the final regulations are updated to reflect our comment, a copy of the Aas published@

regulations be provided to us for review. As requested in FSME Procedure SA-201, AReview of 

State Regulatory Requirements,@ please highlight the final changes, and provide a copy to the 

Division of Materials Safety and State Agreements, FSME. 

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