Dear Mr. Owen: 

We have reviewed the final revisions to the Ohio regulations, Ohio Administrative Code 

Chapters 3701:1-40 and 3701:1-46, received by our office on June 8, 2009. These regulations 

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

10 CFR Parts 30, 31, 32, and 150 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 Michael Snee on June 25, 2009. 

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 Federal and State Materials and Environmental Management Programs (FSME) 

Procedure SA-200. 

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other Ohio regulations and 

legally binding requirements, 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 review results, 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 Monica Orendi at (301) 415-3938 (monica.orendi@nrc.gov).
