RULE ANALYSIS

Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:

This rule is being changed due to changes to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) regulations in 10 CFR Parts 30, 32, and 150 that were effective on 12/17/2007. The State has entered into an agreement with the NRC to establish and maintain a compatible program for the control of radioactive material in Utah. These changes are necessary to maintain the compatibility of the Utah Radiation Control Rules with federal regulations.

Summary of the rule or change:

The changes are to two sections of the rule: R313-19-13 and R313-19-30. The changes to Section R313-19-13 remove references to obsolete items or products containing quantities of radioactive materials that are exempt from regulation, and adds an exemption for smoke detectors that contain no more than one microcurie of Americium-241 per detector. The changes also prohibit the aggregation of exempt quantities of radioactive material to a quantity in excess of the limits in Section R313-19-71, and does not allow a person to introduce radioactive material into a product or material that may be transferred to a person who is exempt from Subsection R313-19-13(2)(a)(i) except in accordance with a specific license issued pursuant to Subsection R313-22-75(1). The change to Section R313-19-30 does not allow out-of-state licensees to transfer or dispose of radioactive material possessed or used under Subsection R313-19-30(1) to a person who is exempt from Subsection R313-19-13(2)(a) (exempt concentrations of radioactive material other than source material).

State statutory or constitutional authorization for this rule:

  • Subsection 19-3-104(4)
  • Subsection 19-3-104(8)

Anticipated cost or savings to:

the state budget:

The proposed changes are not anticipated to have any impact on the state budget since the changes deal with quantities and concentrations of radioactive material that are exempt from the rules. The Utah Division of Radiation Control (Division) may incur additional enforcement costs if a person were to attempt to aggregate exempt quantities of radioactive material, or to introduce radioactive materials into a product or material that may be distributed to a person exempt from the rules. However, the Division is not aware of any such activity occurring in the state at this time.

local governments:

The proposed changes are not anticipated to have any fiscal impact on local government since local government would not be involved in any regulatory activity associated with the affected rule, and local government entities would not be involved in activities addressed by the changes (e.g., the aggregation of exempt quantities of radioactive material, the introduction of radioactive material into a product that may be distributed to a person exempt from the rules, etc.).

small businesses:

There is no anticipated fiscal effect on small businesses from the proposed rule changes, except for small businesses that may engage in the aggregation of exempt quantities of radioactive material or the introduction of radioactive material into a product that may be distributed to a person exempt from the rules. The impact on affected small businesses is addressed below under "Compliance costs for affected persons."

persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local governmental entities:

There is no anticipated fiscal affect on other persons from the proposed rule changes, except for persons that may engage in the aggregation of exempt quantities of radioactive material or the introduction of radioactive material into a product that may be distributed to a person exempt from the rules. The impact on affected persons is addressed below under "Compliance costs for affected persons."

Compliance costs for affected persons:

The Division is not aware of any person who will be considered an "affected person" because of the changes to the rule; however, there are compliance costs associated with anyone who may engage in an activity that is prohibited or limited by the rule change. One potential financial impact on affected persons is the prohibition on aggregating exempt quantities of radioactive material in order to produce an increased radiation level. After the rule is changed, persons wanting to produce an increased radiation level in a product or material will have to obtain and use quantities of radioactive material that will require the person to apply for and be issued a specific license by the Division. The costs for a specific license vary depending on the license category that is appropriate to the proposed use of the radioactive material. For example, the costs for a manufacturing and distribution license are $1,670 initial/renewal fee and $2,040 annual fee. The fees for a research and development license are $700 initial/renewal and $940 annual. Other persons affected by the proposed rule changes are those persons receiving products or materials from out-of-state persons who possess a radioactive material license from the NRC or another Agreement State who want to introduce radioactive material into a product or material. After the proposed rule changes are in effect, these out-of-state licensees will only be allowed to distribute the product or material containing radioactive material to persons who have been issued a specific radioactive material license by the Division to possess such a product or material. The fees for specific licenses in Utah for the customers of the out-of-state licensees vary depending on the intended use of the product or material containing radioactive material being distributed by the out-of-state licensee. The fees may range from $440 (initial/renewal) and $520 (annual) for gauge users to $1,670 (initial/renewal) and $2,560 (annual) for industrial radiography. All cost estimates are for the potential that there may be a person who may be affected by the rule change. However, as stated above, the Division is unaware of any person who will be affected by this rule change.

Comments by the department head on the fiscal impact the rule may have on businesses:

The proposed changes to the rule are necessary for the Utah Radiation Control Rules to be compatible with NRC requirements, and the Division's program activities are adequate to protect the public health and safety. The Division is not aware of any business that would be impacted fiscally due to the proposed rule changes. Any future fiscal impact to businesses from this rule making will be that those seeking to engage in the activities affected by the rule changes will need to obtain a specific license from the Division for those activities.
