Dear Mr. Finerfrock:

We have reviewed the proposed changes to the Utah R313-32, “Medical Use of Radioactive

Material,” received by our office on March 17, 2006. These regulations were reviewed by

comparison to the equivalent Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules in 10 CFR Part 35,

“Medical Use Of Byproduct Material” and the requirement of the amendment identified in the

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

regulations with Mr. Craig Jones on April 11, 2006.

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 Office of State and Tribal Programs (STP) Procedure SA-200. We request that when the

proposed regulations are adopted and published as final regulations, a copy of the “as

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

“Review of State Regulatory Requirements,” please highlight any final changes and provide a

copy to STP. 

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.hsrd.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,
