November 13, 2018
ALL AGREEMENT STATES, VERMONT
ANNUAL COUNT OF ACTIVE RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL LICENSES IN THE NATIONAL
MATERIALS PROGRAM (STC-18-067)
Purpose: To update the count of radioactive material specific licenses, general
licenses/registrations, and generally-licensed devices currently active in the National Materials
Program.
Background: Annually, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requests that all
Agreement States provide the number of specific radioactive material licenses currently active
under their jurisdiction. Additionally, the NRC is requesting that all Agreement States who have
regulations compatible with Title 10 Code of the Federal Regulations (CFR) 31.5, regarding
general licenses, update the total number of general licenses/registrations and generallylicensed devices currently active under their jurisdiction.
Discussion: The latest count of specific material licenses in the National Materials Program as
of December 22, 2017, is provided in the Enclosure. Please revise the total number of currently
active specific material licenses under your State’s jurisdiction, and indicate how many of those
licenses are categorized as either industrial, medical, academic or other.
The NRC is requesting that all Agreement States provide the following information on the total
number of general licensed devices: (1) Active general licensees that are registered as per
10 CFR 31.5 or your compatible regulations, (2) Active general licensees that only possess
tritium, if tracked by your state, (3) All active general licensees, (this would include those
registered per 10 CFR 31.5, or your compatible regulations, any licensees that possess only
tritium, and any remaining general licensees), (4) Generally licensed devices that are registered
as per 10 CFR 31.5 or your compatible regulations, (5) Generally licensed devices that contain
only tritium, if tracked by your state, (6) All generally licensed devices possessed by the general
licensees in Question number three. (Please note that an active general licensee would be one
that has a current registration or has received, but not reported the transfer of their generally
licensed device(s). If you do not know the number of licensees that possess only tritium or the
number of devices that contain tritium, please specifically indicate that your totals do not include
tritium.) If you have questions regarding the information requested on general licensees or
devices, please feel free to contact the individual noted below.
