Medical Use of Byproduct Material; Workshop

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has developed a proposed rulemaking for a comprehensive revision of its regulations governing the medical use of byproduct material in 10 CFR part 35, ``Medical Use of Byproduct Material,'' and a proposed revision of its 1979 Medical Use Policy Statement (MPS). Throughout the development of the proposed rule and MPS, the Commission solicited input from the various interests that may be affected by these proposed revisions. The Commission is now soliciting comments on the proposed rule and MPS through two mechanisms--publishing the documents in the Federal Register for a 90-day public comment period (63 FR 43516 and 63 FR 43580, August 13, 1998); and convening facilitated public meetings and a workshop, during the public comment period, to discuss the Commission's proposed resolution of the major issues. The workshop on NRC's medical rulemaking initiative will be held during the Organization of Agreement States' (OAS) 1998 All Agreement States Meeting, in Bedford, New Hampshire.
