Abstract: The NRC is proposing to amend its regulations to reduce barriers to medical use licensing. This proposed rule would reduce overly prescriptive requirements, increase regulatory flexibility, and modernize radiation safety practices for the medical use of byproduct material. It also would enable more efficient and predictable licensing for emerging medical technologies and reduce unnecessary burden associated with training and experience requirements for medical authorized users. This effort is consistent with, and implements, the direction in Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” which directs the NRC to conduct a comprehensive review and revision of its regulations. This proposed rule addresses a wide range of topics, including the following areas that result in new or revised recordkeeping and reporting requirements involving: • Research applications, • Applications, • Temporary RSOs, • Instrument calibrations, • Medical events, • Dose to an embryo/fetus or a nursing child, • Generator elutions, • Radiation Safety Committees, • Mobile medical services, • Radiation safety, • Continuing education, • Decay-in-storage, • Permissible concentrations for generator-produced radionuclides, • Microsource brachytherapy, and • Safety precautions for patients not eligible for release.

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The NRC is amending its regulations to reduce barriers to medical use licensing, which would reduce respondent burden by an estimated -13,280 hours annually. Specifically, this proposed rule would reduce overly prescriptive requirements, increase regulatory flexibility, and modernize radiation safety practices for the medical use of byproduct material. It would also enable more efficient and predictable licensing for emerging medical technologies by reducing reliance on Subpart K licensing and reduce unnecessary burden associated with training and experience requirements for medical authorized users. This effort is consistent with, and implements, the direction in Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” which directs the NRC to conduct a comprehensive review and revision of its regulations.
