Protection Agency, and the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
SUMMARY: The Department of Defense
(DoD), Department of Energy (DOE),
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) are announcing the
availability of the final ‘‘Multi-Agency
Radiation Survey and Assessment of
Materials and Equipment manual’’
(MARSAME). MARSAME provides
information on planning, conducting,
evaluating, and documenting
radiological surveys for demonstrating
compliance with measurable action
levels. The MARSAME manual is a
multi-agency consensus document. The
agencies previously have sought public
comment in order to receive feedback
from the widest range of interested
parties and to ensure that all
information relevant to developing the
document was received. The agencies
reviewed public comments received on
the draft MARSAME as well as
comments from a concurrent,
independent, technical peer review.
Suggested changes were incorporated,
where appropriate, in response to those
comments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
MARSAME provides information on
planning, conducting, evaluating, and
documenting environmental
radiological surveys for demonstrating
compliance with measurable action
levels applied to materials and
equipment. MARSAME is a multiagency consensus document and a

supplement to the Multi-Agency
Radiation Survey and Site Investigation
Manual (MARSSIM).
MARSAME was developed
collaboratively over the past six years by
the technical staffs of the four Federal
agencies having authority for control of
radioactive materials: DoD, DOE, EPA,
and NRC. For a time, staff from the
Department of Homeland Security
participated in the development of
MARSAME. Contractors to the DOE,
EPA, and NRC, and members of the
public have been present during the
open meetings of the MARSAME
workgroup. MARSAME’s objective is to
describe standardized and consistent
approaches for surveys, which provide
a high degree of assurance that
established action levels can be
measured and an appropriate
disposition of materials or equipment
can be technically defended. The
techniques, methodologies, and
philosophies that form the bases of this
manual were developed to be consistent
with current Federal limits, guidelines,
and procedures.
MARSAME benefited from extensive
internal, public, and technical peer
reviews. In addition to written
comments, the work group provided the
public with the opportunity to comment
during the open meetings. The
document also received formal technical
peer review under the auspices of the
EPA Science Advisory Board (SAB). The
results of the peer review and the
responses to comments by the EPA are
publicly available for examination and
may be copied for a fee (see ADDRESSES
section above for directions). In its
findings, the SAB stated that, ‘‘The
MARSAME manual impresses the Panel
as an excellent technical document for
guiding a materials and equipment
survey.’’ The responses to the technical
review comments by the SAB may be
viewed at the following World-WideWeb site: https://yosemite.epa.gov/sab/

The author agencies solicit comments
arising from review and use of the final
MARSAME. Comments will be
reviewed periodically by the author
agencies, resolved as appropriate, and
incorporated into future revisions of the
MARSAME. Members of the public are
invited to submit written comments to
the Chief, Rules and Directives Branch,
Division of Administrative Services,
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,
Washington, DC 20555–0001. Copies of
all comments received by one agency
will be periodically copied and sent to
the others. Revised pages resulting from
the resolution of comments will be
