Division of Public and Behavioral Health 

675 Fairview Drive, Suite 218 

Carson City, NV 89701 

Dear Ms. Beckley: 

We have reviewed the final revisions to the Nevada Administrative Code in the Fifth Revised 

Proposed Regulation of the State Board of Health, LCB File No. R144-13, received by our office 

on November 21, 2016. These regulations were reviewed by comparison to the equivalent U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules and the requirements of Regulation Amendment 

Tracking System Identification Numbers (RATS IDs) 2013-1, 2013-2, 2015-1, and 2015-2 as 

identified in the enclosed State Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review 

of the regulations with Michael Schmidt on January 10, 2017. 

As a result of our review, we have 11 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. We have determined that if these regulations are revised, 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 you revise your regulations to address our comments, 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 location of any changes made 

by Nevada, in response to our comments, 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 Nevada 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.

13RP5: 

Section 

7.1(c)(7) 

37.77(f) 2015-2 C Advance notification of shipment 

of category 1 quantities of 

radioactive material 

As part of the regulation amendment 

associated with RATS ID 2015-2, the 

NRC changed the Compatibility 

Category designation for 10 CFR 

37.77(f) from NRC to C. Nevada 

regulations omit the requirements 

contained in 37.77(f). 

Nevada needs to remove 37.77(f) 

from the list of regulations “not 

adopted by reference” in 

R144-13RP5: Section 7.1(c)(7). 

Nevada needs to make the change 

described above in order to meet the 

Compatibility Category C designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 37.77(f). 

COMMENT STANDS FROM NRC 

LETTER DATED MARCH 3, 2015 

Nevada indicated in letter dated 

November 29, 2016 (ML16327A558) 

that it will address this comment in a 

future proposed rulemaking.

to those exemptions provided in 10 

CFR 40.13(c). 

Nevada needs to revise NAC 

459.182.3 so that the exemptions 

provided align with those exemptions

40.13, 

Footnote 2 

2013-2 B Unimportant quantities of source 

material 

The last sentence of NAC 

459.182.3(e)(2) contains a reference 

to “...the provisions of subparagraph 

(2) in effect on June 30, 1969.” No 

part of the cited regulation was in 

effect on 1969; Nevada did not 

become an Agreement State until 

1972. Consequently, Nevada needs 

to replace the text quoted above with 

the following text: “...the provisions of 

10 CFR 40.13(c)(5)(ii) in effect on 

June 30, 1969.” 

Nevada needs to make the change 

described above to meet the

Nevada needs to revise NAC

Nevada requirements that do not 

directly correspond to the NRC 

requirements referenced in 10 CFR

The exemptions provided in NAC

to those exemptions provided in 10

Nevada needs to revise NAC 

459.212.4 so that the exemptions 

provided align with those exemptions 

provided in 10 CFR 40.22(d) as 

follows: 

“...is exempt from the provisions of 

NAC 459.316 to 459.374, inclusive, 

and 459.780 to 459.794, inclusive, to

Additionally, Nevada needs to delete 
4 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

the phrase “and sections 7 to 27, 

inclusive, of this regulation” from the 

last sentence of NAC 459.212.4. This 

text references Nevada requirements 

that do not directly correspond to the 

NRC requirements referenced in 10

Nevada needs to delete the phrase 

“Except as otherwise provided in this 

subsection,” from the first sentence in 

NAC 459.212.5. 

Nevada needs to revise NAC 

459.212.5 so the referenced 

requirement directly corresponds to 

the referenced requirement in 10 CFR 

40.22(e) as follows: “...unless 

authorized by a specific license 

issued in accordance with NAC 

459.212.6*, or equivalent provisions 

of...” 

Nevada needs to make the changes 

described above to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 40.22(e). 

*Note: Comment #8 below indicates 

that NAC 459.212.6 should be moved 

from its current location in the 

regulations. Nevada should change 

the reference to NAC 459.212.6 in 

this comment to correspond to any 

changes to the location of the 

requirements of NAC 459.212.6 as a 

result of comment #8.

The Nevada specific licensing 

requirements of NAC 459.212.6 and 

459.212.7 are contained within a 

section, NAC 459.212, dedicated to 

“General licenses: Source material.” 

Nevada needs to move the 

requirements of NAC 459.212.6 and 

459.212.7 out of NAC 459.212 and 

into a section dedicated to specific 

licensing requirements.
