    RULE ANALYSIS

    Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:

    Rule R313-27 requires the Board to appoint a "Medical Use Advisory Committee" to review and make recommendations to the Board on any rule or other policy that affects the medical use of radiation. The rule sets the makeup of the committee and requires the committee to report to the Board prior to any Board action on the rule. Rule R313-27 was adopted by the Radiation Control Board in its final meeting in June 2015. The Division has received an opinion from the Attorney General's office that the Radiation Control Board could not, under authority that existed in June 2015 nor under the current authority of the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board, make Rule R313-27. The rule is being repealed as the authority did not nor does now exist to make the rule.

    Summary of the rule or change:

    Rule R313-27 is repealed in its entirety since the authority to make the rule does not exist.

    Statutory or constitutional authorization for this rule:

    Anticipated cost or savings to:

    the state budget:

    Savings to the state budget will be realized as no resources will have to be expended to organize the committee that is required by the rule. The actual savings are unknown as no committee was ever formed, so the time required is unknown.

    local governments:

    The requirements in Rule R313-27 applied only to the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board and are being repealed, therefore, there will be no cost or savings to local government.

    small businesses:

    The requirements in Rule R313-27 applied only to the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board and are being repealed, therefore, there will be no cost or savings to small business.

    persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local governmental entities:

    Compliance costs for affected persons:

    The requirements in Rule R313-27 are being repealed, therefore, there will be no compliance costs to affected persons.

    Comments by the department head on the fiscal impact the rule may have on businesses:

    The requirements in Rule R313-27 applied only to the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board and are being repealed, therefore, there will be no cost impacts to business.
