Oklahoma regulatory expertise
We work fluently with the requirements of the Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH), Consumer Health Service (diagnostic X-ray) and Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Radiation Management (radioactive materials). Oklahoma splits radiation oversight between two agencies. Diagnostic X-ray systems are regulated by the Oklahoma State Department of Health under OAC 310:281, which requires registration and an annual Diagnostic X-Ray Permit. Radioactive materials are licensed by the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality's Radiation Management program; Oklahoma became an NRC Agreement State on September 29, 2000. DEQ does not regulate medical diagnostic X-ray machines.
