included in this category are a limited
number of definitions, signs, labels, and
scientific terms that are necessary for a
common understanding of radiation
protection principles among licensees,
regulatory agencies, and members of the
public. Such State standards should be
essentially identical to those of the NRC,
unless Federal statutes provide the State
authority to adopt different standards. Basic
radiation protection standards do not include
constraints or other limits below the level
associated with ‘‘adequate protection’’ that
take into account considerations such as
economic cost and other factors.
ii. Category B—Cross Jurisdictional Program
Elements
This category pertains to a limited number
of program elements that cross jurisdictional
boundaries and that should be addressed to
ensure uniformity of regulation on a
nationwide basis. Some examples include
sealed source and device registration
certificates, transportation regulations,
radiography certification, access
authorization, and security plan
requirements. Agreement State program
elements shall be essentially identical to
those of the NRC. Because program elements
used in the Agreement State Program are
necessary to maintain an acceptable level of
protection of public health and safety,
economic factors 5 shall not be considered.
iii. Category C—Other NRC Program
Elements
This category includes NRC program
elements that are important for an Agreement
State to implement in order to avoid
conflicts, duplications, gaps, or other
conditions that would jeopardize an orderly
pattern in the regulation of agreement
material on a nationwide basis. Such
Agreement State program elements shall
embody the essential objective of the
corresponding NRC program elements.
Agreement State program elements may be
more restrictive than NRC program elements;
however, they should not be so restrictive as
to prohibit a practice authorized by the AEA
and in the national interest without an
adequate public health and safety or
environmental basis related to radiation
protection.
iv. Category D—Program Elements Not
Required for Compatibility
This category pertains to program elements
that do not meet any of the criteria listed in
Compatibility Category A, B, or C above and
are not required to be adopted for purposes
of compatibility.
v. Category NRC—Areas of Exclusive NRC
Regulatory Authority
This category consists of program elements
over which the NRC cannot discontinue its
regulatory authority pursuant to the AEA or
provisions of 10 CFR. However, an
Agreement State may inform its licensees of
these NRC requirements through an
5 For the purposes of this policy statement,
economic factors are those costs incurred by the
regulated community to comply with regulations

appropriate mechanism under the State’s
administrative procedure laws, as long as the
State adopts these provisions solely for the
purposes of notification, and does not
exercise any regulatory authority as a result.
F. Conclusion
The NRC and Agreement States will
continue to jointly assess the NRC and
Agreement State programs for the regulation
of agreement material to identify specific
changes that should be considered based on
experience or to further improve overall
safety, performance, compatibility, and
effectiveness.
The NRC encourages Agreement States to
adopt and implement program elements that
are patterned after those adopted and
implemented by the NRC to foster and
enhance an NMP that establishes a coherent
and compatible nationwide program for the
regulation of agreement material.
