Springfield, IL 62704

Dear Mr. Vinson:

We have reviewed the proposed and final revisions to the Illinois regulations 32 Ill. 

Administrative Code Parts 330 and 335, received by our office on June 21, 2012. We also 

received your July 20, 2012 request to withdraw one of the proposed Part 335 regulations. 

These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) rules in 10 CFR Parts 30, 31, 32, 35, 150 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 3, 2012.

As a result of our review of the proposed and final revisions, we have no comments. 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 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://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 Kathy Schneider, 

State Regulation Review Coordinator at (301) 415-2320 (kathleen.schneider@nrc.gov) or Jim 

Lynch at (630) 829-9661 (james.lynch@nrc.gov).

Sincerely,

/RA A.D. White for/

Pamela J. Henderson, Deputy Director

Division of Materials Safety and State Agreements
