Medical Use of Byproduct Material-Recognition of Specialty Boards; Correction
This document contains a correction to the final regulations which were published in the Federal Register of Wednesday, March 30, 2005 (70 FR 16336) amending the Commission's training and experience requirements in 10 CFR part 35. The regulations related to the requirements for recognition of specialty boards whose certifications may be used to demonstrate the adequacy of the training and experience of individuals to serve as radiation safety officers, authorized medical physicists, authorized nuclear pharmacists, or authorized users. This action corrects the regulations by inserting a reference that was inadvertently omitted.
Radiation Source Protection and Security Task Force; Request for Public Comment
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has established an interagency task force to evaluate and make recommendations on the protection and security of radiation sources. The Radiation Source Protection and Security Task Force (Task Force) is required by the Energy Policy Act of 2005. As part of the Task Force's considerations, it is seeking public input on the major issues before the Task Force. To aid in that process, the NRC is requesting comments on the issues discussed in this notice.
Exemptions From Licensing, General Licenses, and Distribution of Byproduct Material: Licensing and Reporting Requirements
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend its regulations governing the use of byproduct material to revise requirements for reporting transfers to persons exempt from licensing, simplify the licensing of smoke detector distribution, remove obsolete provisions, and clarify certain regulatory provisions. These actions are intended to better ensure the protection of public health and safety in the future, make the licensing of distribution to exempt persons more effective and efficient, and reduce unnecessary regulatory burden to certain general licensees. These changes would affect licensees who distribute byproduct material to exempt persons, users of some generally licensed devices, and some exempt persons.
Expanded Definition of Byproduct Material (NARM Rulemaking), Availability of Web Page
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has crafted a Web page for the rulemaking titled ``Expanded Definition of Byproduct Material,'' also known as the ``NARM rulemaking.'' The Energy Policy Act of 2005 requires the NRC to establish a regulatory framework for the expanded definition of byproduct material to include certain naturally occurring and accelerator-produced radioactive material through rulemaking. Documents in support of this rulemaking will be posted on the Web page via the NRC's rulemaking Web site at https:// ruleforum.llnl.gov as they become publicly available.
