NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION 

WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 

October 28, 2015 

Mr. C. Gibb Vinson, Section Head 

Radioactive Materials Section 

Illinois Emergency Management Agency 

Bureau of Radiation Safety 

1035 Outer Park Drive 

Springfield, IL 62704 

Dear Mr. Vinson: 

We have reviewed the proposed revisions to the Illinois regulations in the Illinois Administrative 

Code Part 337, received by our office on September 17, 2015. These regulations were 

reviewed by comparison to the equivalent U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) 

regulations 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 

October 28, 2015. 

As a result of our review, we have fourteen comments related to compatibility and one comment 

that is not related to compatibility but should be addressed. These 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 Illinois 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 Illinois 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 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 NMSS State Communication Portal: https://scp.nrc.gov/rulemaking.html. 

Additionally, please note that NRC has previously issued certain security Orders to four Illinois 

licensees. We have not listed the names of the licensees in this letter because that information 

is Official Use Only and cannot be made publicly available. Because the NRC-issued Orders 

are still legally binding, they must be rescinded by NRC concurrent with State’s promulgation of 
C. Vinson 2 

 

final regulations. Accordingly, close coordination is needed between NRC and your office to 

ensure there are no conflicts, duplications, or gaps regarding the security-related requirements 

for these licensees. Please contact Adelaide Giantelli, Chief, Source Management and 

Protection Branch, NMSS for information regarding the affected State licensees and for 

coordination with rescission of the NRC-issued Orders for these licensees after Illinois’ 

promulgation and NRC’s review of the final Illinois regulations. 

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 Michelle 

Beardsley, State Regulation Review Coordinator, at (610) 337-6942 

(Michelle.Beardsley@nrc.gov) or Matthew Learn at (630) 829-9603 (Matthew.Learn@nrc.gov).
