I. Introduction
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing a revision
to an existing guide in the agency’s
‘‘Regulatory Guide’’ series. This series
was developed to describe and make
available to the public information such
as methods that are acceptable to the
NRC staff for implementing specific
parts of the agency’s regulations,
techniques that the staff uses in
evaluating specific problems or
postulated accidents, and data that the
staff needs in its review of applications
for permits and licenses.
Revision 3 of Regulatory Guide 10.8,
‘‘Guide for the Preparation of
Applications for Medical Use
Programs,’’ was previously issued with
a temporary identification as Draft
Regulatory Guide, DG–0018 and an
opportunity for public comments. This
regulatory guide directs the reader to the
type of information acceptable to the
NRC staff for review of an application
for a medical use license. Title 10, Part
35, ‘‘Medical Use of Byproduct
Material,’’ of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR Part 35) regulates
the medical use of byproduct material.
In addition to the requirements of 10
CFR Part 35, medical use licensees may
be subject to those portions of 10 CFR
Part 20, ‘‘Standards for Protection
Against Radiation,’’ that relate to
radiation safety and the sections of 10
CFR Part 30, ‘‘Rules of General
Applicability to Domestic Licensing of
Byproduct Material,’’ that relate to
licensing and the noncommercial
transfer of specific radioactive drugs to
medical use licensees within a
consortium.

This regulatory guide endorses the
methods and procedures for medical
licensing applications contained in the
current revision of NUREG–1556,
Volume 9, ‘‘Consolidated Guidance
about Material Licenses: ProgramSpecific Guidance about Medical Use
Licenses,’’ as a process that the NRC
staff finds acceptable for meeting the
regulatory requirements.
In April 2008, DG–0018 was
published with a public comment
period of 60 days from the issuance of
the guide. No comments were received
and the public comment period closed
on June 30, 2008. Electronic copies of
Regulatory Guide 10.8, Revision 3 are
available through the NRC’s public Web
site under ‘‘Regulatory Guides’’ at
https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/.
In addition, regulatory guides are
available for inspection at the NRC’s
Public Document Room (PDR), which is
located at Room O–1F21, One White
Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike,
Rockville, Maryland 20852–2738. The
PDR’s mailing address is USNRC PDR,
Washington, DC 20555–0001. The PDR
can also be reached by telephone at
(301) 415–4737 or (800) 397–4209, by

Regulatory guides are not
copyrighted, and NRC approval is not
required to reproduce them.

Docket No. 50–243
Oregon State University Research
Reactor; Notice of Issuance of
Renewed Facility License No. R–106
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC or the Commission)
has issued renewed Facility License No.
R–106, held by Oregon State University
(the licensee), which authorizes
continued operation of the Oregon State
University TRIGA reactor (OSTR),
located in Corvallis, Benton County,
Oregon. The OSTR is a pool-type, lightwater-moderated-and-cooled research
reactor licensed to operate at a steady-

53451
state thermal power level of 1.1
megawatts. Renewed Facility License
No. R–106 will expire at midnight 20
years from its date of issuance.
The renewed license complies with
the standards and requirements of the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended
(the Act), and the Commission’s rules
and regulations. The Commission has
made appropriate findings as required
by the Act and the Commission’s
regulations in Title 10, Chapter 1,
‘‘Nuclear Regulatory Commission,’’ of
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
and sets forth those findings in the
renewed license. The agency afforded
an opportunity for hearing in the Notice
of Opportunity for Hearing published in
the Federal Register on June 14, 2007,
at 72 FR 32922. The NRC received no
request for a hearing or petition for
leave to intervene following this notice.
The NRC staff prepared a safety
evaluation report for the renewal of
Facility License No. R–106 and
concluded, based on that evaluation,
that the licensee can continue to operate
the facility without endangering the
health and safety of the public. The NRC
staff also prepared an environmental
assessment for license renewal, noticed
in the Federal Register on September 8,
2008, at 73 FR 52072, and concluded,
based on that assessment, that renewal
of the license will not have a significant
impact on the quality of the human
environment.
The NRC maintains the Agencywide
Documents Access and Management
System (ADAMS), which provides text
and image files of the NRC’s public
documents. For details with respect to
the application for renewal, see the
licensee’s letter dated October 5, 2004

NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Docket No. 50-243
Oregon State University Research Reactor; Notice of Issuance of
Renewed Facility License No. R-106
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) has
issued renewed Facility License No. R-106, held by Oregon State
University (the licensee), which authorizes continued operation of the
Oregon State University TRIGA reactor (OSTR), located in Corvallis,
Benton County, Oregon. The OSTR is a pool-type, light-water-moderated-
and-cooled research reactor licensed to operate at a steady-state
thermal power level of 1.1 megawatts. Renewed Facility License No. R-
106 will expire at midnight 20 years from its date of issuance.
The renewed license complies with the standards and requirements of
the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the
Commission's rules and regulations. The Commission has made appropriate
findings as required by the Act and the Commission's regulations in
Title 10, Chapter 1, ``Nuclear Regulatory Commission,'' of the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), and sets forth those findings in the renewed
license. The agency afforded an opportunity for hearing in the Notice
of Opportunity for Hearing published in the Federal Register on June
14, 2007, at 72 FR 32922. The NRC received no request for a hearing or
petition for leave to intervene following this notice.
The NRC staff prepared a safety evaluation report for the renewal
of Facility License No. R-106 and concluded, based on that evaluation,
that the licensee can continue to operate the facility without
endangering the health and safety of the public. The NRC staff also
prepared an environmental assessment for license renewal, noticed in
the Federal Register on September 8, 2008, at 73 FR 52072, and
concluded, based on that assessment, that renewal of the license will
not have a significant impact on the quality of the human environment.
The NRC maintains the Agencywide Documents Access and Management
System (ADAMS), which provides text and image files of the NRC's public
documents. For details with respect to the application for renewal, see
the licensee's letter dated October 5, 2004 (ADAMS Accession Nos.
