Proposed Amendments to Radioactive Material

Regulations

Pennsylvania is a U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission

(NRC) Agreement State and has incorporated by reference many NRC regulations. The NRC is proposing to

amend 10 CFR Part 31 (relating to general domestic

licenses for product material), described as follows, and

any amendments made to it will be incorporated into

Pennsylvania’s under 25 Pa. Code § 215.1(e) (relating to

purpose and scope). Proposed changes to 10 CFR Part

31.5 (relating to certain detection, measuring, gauging, or

controlling devices and certain devices for producing light

to an ionized atmoshere) were published in the Federal

Register at 74 FR 38372 (August 2, 2009). Limiting the

quality of byproduct material in a generally licensed

device.

The NRC is proposing to amend its regulations to limit

the quantity of byproduct material contained in a generally licensed device to below 1/10 of the International

Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Category 3 thresholds.

Should this amendment a final rule, individuals in this

Commonwealth possessing devices with byproduct material meeting or exceeding these thresholds would be

required to apply for and obtain a specific license from

the Department of Environmental Protection. Examples

of such devices include certain gauges for measuring the

thickness of materials, the density of solutions and

slurries, the composition of bulk materials, and the level

of fluids in industrial processes. The NRC is also proposing to further clarify the requirements that apply when a

device authorized to be used under the general license is

instead held under a specific license. The proposed

amendments would also modify the Compatibility Categories contained in the current regulations.
