Radioactive Materials Section

The Radioactive Materials Section consists of Tom Hillman and Catherine Perham. The Radiation Control Program, through an agreement with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, has the authority to license the possession and use of radioactive materials within the State of Maine.

There are currently 130 radioactive materials licensees within the State of Maine. These include hospitals, construction companies, lead-in-paint testers, paper mills, energy production facilities and colleges and universities. Out-of-state companies entering the state to work must register with the program, pay an annual fee and file notices when performing work in-state.
