Radiological Health Section 

29 Hazen Drive 

Concord, NH 03301-6527 

Dear Mr. Ong: 

We have reviewed the final revisions to the New Hampshire Radiological Health Rules sections 

He-P 4030, 4032, 4035, and 4090, received by our office on November 10, 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) 2005-2 and 2006-1 as identified in the enclosed State 

Regulation Status (SRS) Data Sheet. We discussed our review of the regulations with you on 

January 18, 2017. 

As a result of our review, we have 15 comments that have been identified in the enclosure. In 

addition to those comments, we have a general comment for New Hampshire to review 

all referenced regulations embedded throughout their submitted rules to ensure that they 

match the equivalent NRC regulations. 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 New Hampshire, 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 New Hampshire 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 NEW HAMPSHIRE FINAL REGULATIONS 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

1 4035 

4036 

Part 35 2005-2 

2006-1 

various Various 

In multiple instances throughout its 

equivalent regulations to 10 CFR Part 

35, NH has written “requirements of 

an equivalent agreement state”; this 

should be changed to read, 

“equivalent agreement state 

requirements” (since the 

requirements, not the state, should be 

equivalent). 

NH needs to make the change 

indicated above to meet the various 

Compatibility Categories assigned to 

10 CFR Part 35. 

2 4035.03 § 35.2 2005-2 

2006-1 

B Definitions 

NH needs to correct all crossreferences throughout their equivalent 

definitions to 10 CFR 35.2. 

NH needs to make the corrections 

indicated above to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.2, Definitions. 

3 4035.61 § 35.50 2005-2 B Training for Radiation Safety 

Officer 

NH’s regulation does not delineate 

between the different alternatives 

such as those in 10 CFR 35.50(a) and 

(c)(1). As written, it appears that 

certification by a specialty board is 

required in all cases. 

New Hampshire needs to make the 

above change to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.50. 
2 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

4 4035.74 §35.55 2005-2 B Training for an authorized nuclear 

pharmacist 

NH needs to remove the word 

“Didactic” and add the wording “200 

hours of classroom and laboratory” in 

front of the word “training” in 

4035.74(c)(1)a. 

NH needs to make the above 

changes to meet the Compatibility 

Category B designation assigned to 

10 CFR 35.55. 

COMMENT STANDS FROM NRC 

LETTER DATED MARCH 28, 2013 

(ML13035A121). 

NEW COMMENTS: 

NH needs to add the word “practical” 

between “Supervised” and 

“experience” in 4035.74(c)(1)b. 

NH needs to correct its internal crossreferences. For example, NH needs 

to change “satisfactorily completed 

the requirements in He-P 4035.74(b) 

or (c)” in 4035.74(d) to “satisfactorily 

completed the requirements in He-P 

4035.74(b)(1), (b)(2), and (b)(3) or 

(c).” 

NH needs to make the above 

changes to meet the Compatibility 

Category B designation assigned to 

10 CFR 35.55. 

5 4035.64 §35.290 2005-2 

2006-1 

B Training for imaging and 

localization studies 

NH needs to correct its internal crossreferences and ensure that the 

structure of the regulation 

corresponds such that it is essentially 

identical to the NRC’s. 
3 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

NH needs to replace “uptake, dilution, 

and excretion studies” in 

4035.64(b)(1) with “imaging and 

localization studies”. 

New Hampshire needs to make the 

above changes to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.290. 

6 4035.65 §35.390 2005-2 

2006-1 

B Training for use of unsealed 

byproduct material for which a 

written directive is required. 

NH’s equivalent regulations are not 

essentially identical to 10 CFR Part 

35.390 in structure and content, e.g.: 

NH does not provide their equivalent 

cross-reference for 35.390(b), the 

structure of 4035.65 (e)(1) and (e)(2) 

are not essentially identical to 10 CFR 

35.390(b)(2). 

NH needs to add “successfully” 

before “complete residency training” 

in 4035.65 (b)(1). 

NH needs to add “medicine” between 

“nuclear” and “training program” in 

4035.65 (b)(1). 

NH needs to change “quality control” 

to “quality assurance.” 

New Hampshire needs to make the 

above changes to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.390. 

7 4035.66 §35.392 2005-2 

2006-1 

B Training for the oral 

administration of sodium iodide I131 requiring a written directive 
4 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

NH’s equivalent regulations are not 

essentially identical to 10 CFR Part 

35.392 in structure and content, e.g.: 

NH regulations in He-P 4035.66 (b) 

contain inaccurate cross-references, 

I.e., when cross-references are made 

to the requirements in 4035.66 (b)(1) 

and (b)(2), it misses the introductory 

language in (b), which would then 

make it not essentially identical to 

35.392(c)(1). 

NH needs to add their equivalent 

cross-references to 

35.390(b)(1)(ii)(G)(2) and 35.394 in 

(a)(3). 

NH needs to ensure that crossreferences from the requirements in 

4035.66 (b)(1) and (b)(2), include the 

introductory language in 4035.66 (b) 

NH needs to combine 4035.66 (a)(3) 

and (a)(4) and rewrite it in a way to be 

essentially identical to 35.392(b). 

NH needs to replace “and” with “or” 

between 4035.66(c)(2)b.1 and 

(c)(2)b.2 in 4035.66 (b)(2). 

NH needs to rewrite/restructure 

4035.66(c)(2) and (c)(3) to be 

essentially identical to 35.392(c)(3). 

New Hampshire needs to make the 

above changes to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.392. 

8 4035.66 §35.394 2005-2 

2006-1 

B Training for the oral 

administration of sodium iodide I131 requiring a written directive in 

quantities greater than 1.22 

gigabecquerels (33 millicuries). 
5 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

NH needs to correct its internal crossreferences e.g., NH needs to change 

the cross-reference in (g) from 

4035.66(d)(1) and (d)(2) to 

4035.66(e) and (f). The crossreference in (h)(2) should be changed 

to 4035.65(c)(2)b.2., etc. 

NH needs to add the equivalent to “A 

preceptor authorized user who meets 

the requirements in § 35.390(b)” 

instead of 35.394(c)(3) in 4035.66 

(h)(2). 

New Hampshire needs to make the 

above changes to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.394. 

9 4035.66 §35.396 2005-2 

2006-1 

B Training for the parenteral 

administration of unsealed 

byproduct material requiring a 

written directive. 

NH needs to correct its internal crossreferences, e.g., the cross-reference 

in 4035.66 (i)(2) should be changed 

from 4035.66(g) to 4035.66(i)(4), and 

the cross-references in 4035.66 (i)(5) 

and (j) also should be corrected, etc. 

New Hampshire needs to correct all 

cross-references to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.396. 

10 4036.67 §35.491 2006-1 B Training for ophthalmic use of 

strontium-90 

NH regulations contain inaccurate 

cross-references. 

NH needs to add “satisfactorily” 

before “completed the requirements” 
6 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

in 4036.67 (b)(1).

New Hampshire needs to make the 

changes indicated above to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.491. 

11 4035.68 

 (b) 

§35.590 2005-2 B Training for use of sealed sources 

for diagnosis. 

NH needs to change the word 

“instruction” to the words “classroom 

and laboratory training” in 4035.68(b). 

NH needs to make the above change 

to meet the Compatibility Category B 

designation assigned to 10 CFR 

35.590. 

12 4035.59 §35.690 2005-2 

2006-1 

B Training for use of remote 

afterloader units, teletherapy units, 

and gamma stereotactic 

radiosurgery units. 

NH needs to correct the crossreferences in 4035.59, e.g., the crossreference in (a) should be changed 

from (b)(3) and (c) to (b)(4) and (c). 

The cross-reference in (b)(3) to 

(b)(1)b. should be (b)(2), etc.. 

NH needs to correct all crossreferences to meet the Compatibility 

Category B designation assigned to 

10 CFR 35.690. 

13 4032.05 

(b)(2)b 

§32.72 2006-1 B Manufacture, preparation, or 

transfer for commercial 

distribution of 

radioactive drugs containing 

byproduct material for medical use 

under Part 35 
7 

STATE SECTION NRC SECTION RATS ID CATEGORY SUBJECT and COMMENTS 

NH regulations omit their equivalent 

cross-references to 35.55(b) and 

35.59. 

NH needs to add its equivalent crossreferences as indicated above to 

meet the Compatibility Category B 

designation assigned to 10 CFR 

32.72. 

14 4035.73 §35.59 2006-1 B Recentness of training. 

NH needs to replace “ongoing 

education and applicable experience” 

with “related continuing education and 

experience”. 

NH’s equivalent regulations to 

Subparts B, D, E, F, G, and H do not 

capture all of the training and 

experience requirements as stated in 

10 CFR Part 35 subparts. NH needs 

to ensure that their equivalent 

subparts are essentially identical to 

NRC’s regulations. 

New Hampshire needs to make the 

changes indicated above to meet the 

Compatibility Category B designation 

assigned to 10 CFR 35.59.

TYPOGRAPHICAL COMMENT 

 ON NEW HAMPSHIRE FINAL REGULATIONS 

He-P 

4035.65 

§35.390 B Training for use of unsealed 

byproduct material for which 

a written directive is required. 

It appears that there is a typo in 

NH’s 4035.65 (c)(2)b.1. and 

4035.65 (c)(2) b.2, i.e.,sodium 

iodine should be sodium iodide.
