NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION 

WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001

Radiation Program Manager 

Hazardous Materials & Waste Management Division 

Department of Public Health and Environment 

4300 Cherry Creek Drive South 

Denver, CO 80246-1530 

Dear Ms. Opila: 

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

Radiation Control, 6 CCR 1007-1, Part 16, received by our office on February 11, 2016. These 

regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) rules 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 March 17, 2016 

As a result of our review, we have nine 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 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 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 NMSS State Communication Portal: https://scp.nrc.gov/rulemaking.html.

COMPATIBILITY COMMENTS ON COLORADO PROPOSED REGULATIONS 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

1 16.3.1.1 39.13(a) 2011-2 H&S Specific licenses for well logging 

CO should revise 16.3.1.1 to read 

“...for byproduct, source, and special 

nuclear material, as appropriate,...” 

The current reference to 10 CFR 

70.23 includes regulations that carry 

compatibility category NRC and 

should not be referenced by CO. 

CO needs to address the comment 

above to meet the Compatibility 

Category H&S designation assigned 

to 10 CFR 39.13. 

COMMENT MODIFIED FROM NRC 

LETTER DATED SEPTEMBER 29, 

2015 (ML15253A672) 

2 16.4.1.5 39.15(a)(5) N/A C Agreement with well owner or 

operator 

CO should revise the reference in 

16.4.1.5 to read “...expended, the 

requirements of 16.25.3.2(1) and 

16.25.5 must be...” 

CO needs to address the comment 

above to meet the Compatibility

39.41(a) 

39.41(d)(1)(i) 

N/A B Design and performance criteria

CO should remove the date, 

December 30, 1986, from 16.12.1 and 

16.12.3. 

CO should delete 16.12.2 in its 

entirety. 

CO should revise 16.12.3.3(1) to 
STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

require the test source to be held at 

minus 40°C for 20 minutes. 

CO needs to address the comments 

above to meet the Compatibility 

Category B designation assigned to 

10 CFR 39.41. 

4 16.12.5 39.53 N/A C Energy compensation source 

CO should revise 16.12.5 to clarify 

that a licensee may use an ECS only 

if the ECS contains 100 microcuries 

or less of licensed material. 

CO should revise the references in 

16.12.5.2 to directly correspond to 10 

CFR 39.15, 39.35, 39.37, 39.39, and 

39.77 (39.51 is intentionally left out 

because it is assigned Compatibility 

Category D). 

CO needs to address the comments 

above to meet the Compatibility 

Category C designation assigned to 

10 CFR 39.53.

5 16.12.6 

16.12.7 

39.55 N/A C Tritium neutron generator target 

source 

The structure of 10 CFR Part 39 and 

CO’s Part 16 is sufficiently different so 

that the exceptions in 16.12.6 and 

16.12.7 do not directly correspond to 

the exceptions in 39.55(a) and (b). 

CO should revise 16.12.6 and 16.12.7 

so that their exceptions directly 

correspond to the exceptions in 

39.55(a) and (b) and so they do not 

except themselves (16.12.6 and 

16.12.7 are in 16.12 and yet they 

except 16.12).

10 CFR 39.55.

Appendix 

16A 

39.61 N/A B Training 

CO should revise 16.15.1.1 by 

replacing the phrase “, in a course 

recognized by the Department, the 

NRC, or an Agreement State, 

instruction” with the word “training”. 

CO should delete the phrase “in the 

handling of sources of radiation” from 

16.15.2. 

CO should remove the reference to 

Part 16 from 16.15.2.1. 

CO should revise 16.15.2.2 by 

replacing the phrase “in 16.16” with 

“required by 16.16”. 

CO should delete 16A.1.3(1), 

16A.1.3(2), 16A.5, and 16A.6 from 

Part 16, Appendix 16A. 

CO needs to address the comments

7 16.16.2 

16.16.5 

16.16.6 

39.63 N/A C Operating & emergency 

procedures 

CO should add the phrase “including 

surveys for detecting 

contamination...” and also reference 

the appropriate sections of Part 16 to 

the end of 16.16.2. 

CO should add the phrase “to prevent 

accidental loss, tampering, or 

unauthorized removal” to the end of 

16.16.5. 

CO should revise 16.16.6 to require 

procedures for minimizing personnel

exposure during normal operations 

and from inhalation and ingestion of 

tracer materials. 

CO needs to address the comments 

above to meet the Compatibility 

Category C designation assigned to 

10 CFR 39.63. 

8 16.23 39.73 N/A C Documents & records required at 

field stations 

CO should revise the introductory 

language in 16.23 so that it specifies 

that the documents and records 

maintained by the licensee must be 

maintained at the field station. 

CO needs to address the comment 

above to meet the Compatibility 

Category C designation assigned to 

10 CFR 39.73. 

9 16.25.2.2 

16.25.3.1 

39.77(a) 

39.77(c)(1) 

N/A C Notification of incidents: 

abandonment procedures for 

irretrievable sources 

The requirements in 16.25.2.2 are 

consistent with 39.77(a), however, in 

order for 16.25.2.2 to apply, the 

condition in 16.25.2 must be true. CO 

should revise 16.25 so that 16.25.2.2 

applies regardless of the location of a 

ruptured source (i.e. lodged downhole 

or somewhere else). 

CO should change the word “ability” 

to “inability” in 16.25.3.1. 

CO needs to address the comments 

above to meet the Compatibility 

Category C designation assigned to 

10 CFR 39.77. 
STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

The following comments are editorial in nature and are not related to compatibility 

1 16.6.1.1 39.31(b) N/A C Labels, security, and 

transportation precautions 

In 16.6.1.1 the inclusion of the phrase 

“(or exposure to)” does not make 

sense within the context of the 

sentence. 

2 Part 16 Part 39 N/A N/A CO should consider changing all uses 

of the word “microcurie” to 

“microcuries” for consistency. 

3 16.14 39.43 N/A C Inspection, maintenance, and 

opening of a source or source 

holder 

By adding the phrase “required by 

16.14.1 and 16.4.2” to 16.14.6, CO 

makes it less clear that records of 

inspection and maintenance should 

be retained because 16.14.1 and 

16.14.2 do not require records of 

inspection and maintenance.
