NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Section 19-1-106 establishes the Radiation Control Board within the Department of Environmental Quality. In accordance with Section 19-3-104, the Board is authorized to make rules that are necessary for controlling exposure to sources of radiation that constitute a significant health hazard.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
No modifications to this rule have been made since its adoption, and no comments have been received either expressing support or opposition to the rule.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
It is necessary to continue this rule because it prescribes requirements for the physical protection program for a licensee that possesses an aggregated category 1 or category 2 quantity of radioactive material. As an Agreement State, this rule is needed to maintain regulatory compatibility with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
