Jeffery C. Angel; Denial of Petition for Rulemaking
로컬 자동 번역 · 원본 출처 언어
요약
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is denying a petition for rulemaking submitted by Jeffery C. Angel (PRM-35-15). The petitioner requested that the NRC amend its regulations concerning the medical use of byproduct material to prohibit the hand-held administration of radiopharmaceuticals by injection. In addition, the petitioner requests amendments to require the use of the "Angel Shield" instead of the currently used syringe radiation shields. The NRC is denying the petition because it would be inconsistent with the Commission's overall program for revising its regulatory framework for the medical use of byproduct material, to make requirements more risk- informed, more performance based, and less prescriptive.
