286 Water Street, 11 SHS 

Augusta, ME 04333-0011 

Dear Mr. Hyland 

We have reviewed the final revision to the Maine regulations, Rules Relating to Radiation 

Protection, received by our office on March 11, 2010. These regulations were reviewed by 

comparison to the equivalent Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules in 10 CFR Parts 19, 

20, 30, 31, 32, 33, 35, 40, 61, 70, 71, 150, and the requirements of the 13 amendments 

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

of the regulations with Shawn Seeley on June 15, 2010. 

As a result of our review, we have 22 comments that have been identified in the enclosure. 

Please note that we have limited our review to regulations required for compatibility and/or 

health and safety. We have determined that if these regulations are revised, incorporating our 

comments and without other 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 you revise your regulations to address our comments, a copy of the “as 

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

“Review of State Regulatory Requirements,” please highlight the location of any changes made 

by Maine, in response to our comments, and provide a copy to Division of Materials Safety and 

State Agreements, FSME. 

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other Maine 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://nrc-stp.ornl.gov/rulemaking.html. 

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 Kathleen 

Schneider, State Regulation Review Coordinator, at (301) 415-2320 

(Kathleen.Schneider@nrc.gov) or Carmen Rivera at 787-200-9521 (Carmen.Rivera@nrc.gov). 

Sincerely,

been provided in the amount of the 

cost estimate for decommissioning 

and a signed original of the financial 

instrument obtained to satisfy the 

requirements of paragraph (f) [Part C

than 100 mCi in a readily dispersible 

form (10 CFR 40.36 (a) & (b)).
