Sec. 35.31  Radiation safety program changes.

    (a) A licensee may make minor changes in radiation safety procedures 
that are not potentially important to safety, i.e., ministerial changes, 
that were described in the application for license, renewal, or 
amendment except for those changes in Secs. 35.13 and 35.606 of this 
part. Examples of such ministerial changes include: editing of 
procedures for clarity or conformance with local drafting policy or 
updating names, telephone numbers, and addresses; adoption of model 
radiation safety procedures published in NRC Regulatory Guides; 
replacement of equipment; reassignment of tasks among employees; or 
assignment of service contracts for services such as personnel 
dosimetry, radiation safety equipment repair or calibration, waste 
disposal, and safety surveys. A licensee is responsible for assuring 
that any change made is in compliance with the requirements of the 
regulations and the license.
    (b) A licensee shall retain a record of each change until the 
license has been renewed or terminated. The record must include the 
effective date of the change, a copy of the old and new radiation safety 
procedures, the reason for the change, a summary of radiation safety 
matters that were considered before making the change, the signature of 
the Radiation Safety Officer, and the signatures of the affected 
authorized users and of management or, in a medical institution, the 
Radiation Safety Committee's chairman and the management representative.
