WSR 13-17-075 WITHDRAWAL OFPREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH [Filed August 16, 2013, 1:22 p.m.] The department of health is withdrawing the preproposal statement of inquiry (CR-101) for chapter 246-247 WAC, Radiation protection—Air emissions, which was filed on June 1, 2005, and published in the Washington State Register as WSR 05-12-140.
The original proposal was to clarify requirements and potentially create separate chapters for facilities subject to Nuclear Regulatory Commission rules versus those subject to Environmental Protection Agency rules for regulation of radioactive air emissions sources. At this time, the department of health does not have the resources to complete rule making.
If the department chooses to amend these rules later, a CR-101 will be filed so that the public may participate in the rule development process.
Any questions about this withdrawal should be directed to John Martell, radioactive air emissions manager, (509) 946-3798, or e-mail john.martell@doh.wa.gov. John Wiesman, DrPH, MPH Secretary |
