Division of Radiological Health

Nashville, TN 37243 

Dear Ms. Shults: 

We have reviewed the proposed changes to the Tennessee State Regulations for Protection 

Against Radiation, received by our office on April 28, 2015. These regulations were reviewed 

by comparison to the equivalent U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules 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 Ruben Crosslin on June 17, 2015. 

As a result of our review, we have ten 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 Tennessee 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 Tennessee regulations. However, we have determined that 

if your proposed 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 Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) Procedure SA-200, 

“Compatibility Categories and Health and Safety Identification for NRC Regulations and Other

Program Elements.” 

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 NMSS 

Procedure SA-201, “Review of State Regulatory Requirements,” please highlight the final 

changes, and provide a copy to Division of Material Safety, State, Tribal, and Rulemaking 

Programs, NMSS. 

The SRS Data Sheet summarizes our knowledge of the status of other Tennessee 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 NMSS Web site: http://nrc-stp.ornl.gov/rulemaking.html.

COMPATIBILITY COMMENTS ON TENNESSEE PROPOSED REGULATIONS 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

1 0400-20-10-

.04 (2)(a)2(ii) 

30.15(a)(2)(ii) 2012-4 B Certain items containing byproduct 

material 

Tennessee has omitted the 18.5 MBq 

(500 μCi) limit for polonium-210 per 

device from 0400-20-10-.04(2)(a)2(ii) 

and refers to byproduct material as 

“byproduct radioactive” in error. 

Tennessee needs to add the 18.5 

MBq (500 μCi) limit for polonium-210 

per device and correct the phrase 

“byproduct radioactive” in 0400-20-

10-.04(2)(a)2(ii) to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 30.15(a)(2)(ii). 

2 0400-20-10-

.04(2)(a)2(iii) 

30.15(a)(2)(iii) 2012-4 B Certain items containing byproduct 

material 

Tennesee’s proposed regulation does 

not, but should exempt devices 

authorized before October 23, 2012 

for use under a general license 

provided by other Agreement States 

and the NRC. 

Tennessee should revise 0400-20-10-

.04(2)(a)2(iii) to read “...for use under 

the general license then provided in 

10 CFR 31.3 and equivalent 

regulations of Agreement States and 

manufactured...” 

Tennessee needs to revise 0400-20-

10-.04(2)(a)2(iii) as described above 

to meet the Compatibility Category B 

designation assigned to 10 CFR 

30.15(a)(2)(iii).

.04(2)(a)9(i), 

(iii), and (iv) 

30.20(a) 2012-4 B Gas and aerosol detectors 

containing byproduct material 

Tennessee needs to remove the 

phrase “from fires and airborne 

hazards” from 0400-20-10- 

.04(2)(a)9(i) because it causes the 

Tennessee regulation to be more 

restrictive than 10 CFR 30.20(a) by 

limiting the type of gas and aerosol 

detectors that can be exempted under 

the regulation. 

Tennessee needs to remove the 

phrase “or a licensing state pursuant 

to regulations equivalent to paragraph 

(15) of Rule 0400-20-10-.13 that 

authorizes the initial transfer of the 

detectors to persons who are exempt 

from regulatory requirements” from 

0400-20-10-.04(2)(a)9(i) because a 

specific license to manufacture, 

process, produce, or initially transfer 

gas and aerosol detectors to exempt 

persons can only be issued by the 

NRC. 

Tennessee needs to remove 

paragraphs (2)(a)9(iii) and (2)(a)9(iv) 

of Rule 0400-20-10-.04 because they 

duplicate and conflict with the 

provisions in 0400-20-10-.04(2)(a)9(i). 

Tennessee needs to revise the final 

sentence in 0400-20-10-.04(2)(a)9(i) 

to read “...comparable provisions to 

10 CFR 32.26 authorizing 

distribution...” 

Tennessee needs to make the 

changes described above to 0400-20-

10-.04(2)(a)9(i) and remove 0400-20-

10-.04(2)(a)9(iii) and 0400-20-10-

section”. 

Tennessee needs to make the

Requirements for license to

Tennessee needs to remove 

paragraph (15) of Rule 0400-20-10.13 

because a specific license to initially 

transfer gas and aerosol detectors to 

exempt persons can only be issued 

by the NRC. 

Tennessee needs to remove 0400-

20-10-.13(15) to meet the 

Compatibility Category NRC

calibration or reference sources 

containing americium 241 or 

radium 226 

Tennessee needs to remove 0400-

20-10-.13(16)(b) in its entirety. There 

is a section that reads “five prototypes 

of such source, which contains more 

than 185 Bq (0.005 μCi) of 

americium-241, plutonium or radium226, as follows:” that was not 

removed with the rest of 0400-20-10- 

.13(16)(b). 

Tennessee needs to completely 

remove 0400-20-10-.13(16)(b) as 

described above to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 32.102 which no 

longer exists.
