| Statutory Authority |
The proposed rule has been developed by the Hazardous Materials and Waste Management Division of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment pursuant to Sections 25-1.5-101(1)(k), 25-1.5-101(1)(l), 25-11-103, 25-11-104, and 25-1-108, C.R.S. |
| Description of Subjects/Issues |
The radiation program is proposing changes to the Part 7, 17 and 22 regulations primarily to
conform to the 2020 and 2021 federal rule changes of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) in 10 CFR Part 35, 10 CFR Part 37, and 10 CFR Part 71. Parts 7, 17, and 22 provide
requirements applicable to medical use of radioactive materials, transportation of radioactive
materials, and increased security for certain radioactive materials, respectively. As an
Agreement State, and in accordance with state statute, Colorado is required to adopt rules
which are compatible and consistent with the applicable federal regulations and is therefore
the primary driver for these proposed rule changes. In addition to the federally driven
changes, minor technical and formatting corrections are also proposed for consistency with
other recently amended Colorado regulations. The proposed rule changes consist of minor technical changes that will clarify and help in the application and understanding of the rules. |
