Ohio Department of Health’s Bureau of Radiation Protection
Seeks Comments on Proposed Amendments
Proposed amendments to rules in Chapters 3701:1-38, 3701:1-40, 3701:1-46 and 3701:1-58 of the Administrative Code.The proposed amendments to rules in the Ohio Administrative Code are being submitted for your review and comment. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission revised federal regulations due to their new jurisdiction over naturally-occurring or accelerator-produced radioactive material in certain states. The amendments to the Ohio Administrative Code were drafted to ensure that Ohio’s rules remain compatible with federal regulations.
Please review the rules and provide any comments that you may have to the Bureau of Radiation Protection of the Ohio Department of Health at bradiation@odh.ohio.gov by January 29, 2010. Comments that are received will be forwarded to the Radioactive Materials Committee of the Radiation Advisory Council, who will consider all comments relative to further changes to the proposed rules. Following this action, the rules will then move through the formal adoption process via the Public Health Council.
