Crowley UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 David Crowley, Interim Section Chief and Radioactive Materials Branch Manager Division of Health Service Regulation, Radiation Protection Section Department of Health and Human Services 5505 Creedmoor Road Raleigh, North Carolina 27612

Dear Mr. Crowley:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) uses the Integrated Materials Performance Evaluation Program (IMPEP) for the evaluation of Agreement State programs. Per our previous discussion, I will be the team leader for the IMPEP review of the North Carolina Agreement State Program scheduled for May 2 - 6, 2022. The review team will include Monica Ford, NRC Region I; Leo Wardrobe, NRC Region IV; Anjan Bhattacharyya, Commonwealth of Kentucky; and Karl Von Ahn, State of Texas.

Enclosed is the Integrated Materials Performance Evaluation Program Questionnaire. The questionnaire was previously provided to you electronically on February 9, 2022. I ask that you provide your responses via e-mail to ryan.craffey@nrc.gov by April 15, 2022. The questionnaire was sent in advance of this IMPEP review scheduling letter in order to provide time for you to allocate the staff resources necessary to complete the document by the requested date.

Also included with the questionnaire is the document Materials Requested to Be Available for the On-Site Portion of an IMPEP Review. We encourage States to have the items listed prepared and to the extent possible, uploaded with the questionnaire responses prior to the commencement of the IMPEP review Please set up an appointment with the appropriate State Senior Managers to discuss the results of the IMPEP review of the North Carolina Agreement State Program on the morning of May 6, 2022.

If your Program experiences any difficulties or delays in preparing for this IMPEP review, please let me know as soon as possible.

February 25, 2022

D. Crowley If you have any questions, please call me at 630-829-9655.

Sincerely, Ryan Craffey, Senior Health Physicist Materials Inspection Branch Division of Nuclear Materials Safety and Safeguards U.S. NRC Region III
