Description of Subjects/Issues |
The proposed new rule, titled Part 20, “Registration and Licensing of Technologically Enhanced Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (TENORM)”, was created as required by Senate Bill 18-245. The proposed Part 20 rule provides a graded, tiered approach to regulation of TENORM materials, including allowed exemption of certain materials of low risk. Materials presenting moderate risk will be regulated through a registration process, and a specific radioactive materials licensing process, consistent with current licensing activities, will be reserved for facilities concentrating or processing the highest risk materials. The proposed revisions to the Part 12 fees rules are to incorporate a fee structure for registration and licensing of these facilities. |
