Dear Mr. Tarlton: 

We have reviewed the proposed revisions to the final Colorado Rules and Regulations 

Pertaining to Radiation Control, 6CCR 1007-1, Part 18, “Licensing Requirements for Uranium 

and Thorium Processing,” received by our office on November 8, 2013. These regulations were 

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

CFR Parts 40, 61, and 150 as identified in the enclosed State Regulation Status (SRS) Data 

Sheet. We discussed our review of the regulations with James Jarvis on January 10, 2014. 

As a result of our review, we have 16 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. Under our current procedure, a finding that the Colorado 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 Colorado regulations. However, we have determined that if 

your proposed revisions to the final regulations were adopted, 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 the proposed revisions to the regulations are adopted and published as 

final regulations, 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 final changes, 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 Colorado 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. 
S. Tarlton -2- 

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

 COMPATIBILITY COMMENTS ON COLORADO PROPOSED REGULATIONS 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

1 18.2 §40.4 

§61.2 

Definitions: 

Active 

maintenance 

N/A H&S Definition: Active maintenance 

The term “active maintenance” is 

defined in Part 61.2 and is unique to 

the requirements for Licensing 

Requirements for Land Disposal of 

Radioactive Waste in Part 61. The 

term is not defined in 10 CFR 40 or in 

Appendix A to 10 CFR 40. The use of 

this term in context with the 

requirements in Part 40, Appendix A 

for 11e.(2) material can result in 

conflicts and duplications. Reference 

to “active maintenance” should be 

deleted from Section 18.2. 

Colorado needs to delete the term 

“active maintenance” from Section 

18.2 in order to meet the Category 

H&S designation assigned to 10 CFR 

61.2. and in order to avoid 

duplications, conflicts and gaps in 

accordance with the 1997 Policy 

Statement on Adequacy and 

Compatibility of Agreement State 

Programs. 

COMMENT STANDS from June 28, 

2012, Letter. 

2 18.2 

3.16 

§40.4 N/A A Definition: Residual radioactive 

material 

The phrase “residual radioactive 

material” should be deleted from 

Section 3.16 since this material is 

reserved to NRC’s jurisdiction. 

Colorado needs to make the above 

changes in order to meet the 

Compatibility Category A designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 40.4, Definitions, 

Residual radioactive material. 

PARTIAL COMMENT STANDS from 

June 28, 2012, Letter.

3 18.2 §40.4 N/A A Definition: Uranium milling 
3 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

Colorado needs to revise the phrase 

“byproduct material as defined in Part 

1 of these regulations.” to “byproduct 

material as in definition (2) of 1.2.2 of 

these regulations.” 

Colorado needs to make the above 

changes in order to meet the 

Compatibility Category A designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 40.4, Definitions: 

Uranium milling. 

4 3.9.5.10 Part 40, 

Appendix A, 

II. Financial 

Criteria

N/A C Appendix A, Criterion 10

In Section 3.9.5.10 (4), Colorado’s 

regulations states, “The amount of 

funds to be provided by such longterm care warranties shall be based 

on Department-approved cost 

estimates and shall be enough that 

with an assumed six percent annual 

real interest rate, the annual interest 

earnings will be sufficient to cover to 

the annual costs of site surveillance 

by the Department, including 

reasonable administrative costs 

incurred by the Department, in 

perpetuity, subsequent to the 

termination of the license.” In NRC’s 

equivalent requirements in Criterion 

10 states “...with an assumed 1 

percent annual real interest rate...” 

The assumption of six percent in the 

above statement underestimates the 

amount of funds set aside for long 

term care creating a situation of 

having insufficient funds to cover the 

costs of surveillance. This is less 

restrictive than the NRC requirements 

in Criterion 10 and should be revised 

to address the essential objective of 

this requirement. 

Also, the regulation states that the 

Department would be responsible for 

site surveillance. Colorado has stated 

recently that the Department of 
4 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

Energy would be responsible for site 

surveillance. As written, this option is 

not an option under the Colorado 

regulations. 

Colorado needs to adopt the above 

changes in order to meet the 

Compatibility Category C designation 

assigned to Appendix A.

Colorado needs to replace the term 

“byproduct material” with the phrase 

“byproduct material as in definition (2) 

of 1.2.2.” so as to clarify that Section 

18 only applies to 11e.(2) byproduct 

material.
