(2) Radiation shielding plan review fees. Radiation machine facilities regulated under the shielding plan requirements of WAC 246-225-030, 246-226-030, or 246-227-150 are subject to a $977 radiation shielding review fee for each X-ray room plan submitted:
(a) A registrant may request an expedited plan review for $2,936 for each X-ray room plan. An expedited plan means the department will complete the plan review within two business days of receiving all required information from the registrant.
(b) If a radiation machine facility regulated under WAC 246-225-030, 246-226-030, or 246-227-150 operates without submittal and departmental review of radiation shielding calculations and a floor plan it will be subject to a shielding design follow-up fee of $1,960 in addition to the $977 radiation shielding review fee.
(3) Inspection fees.
(a) The cost of routine, periodic inspections, including the initial inspection, are covered under fees as described in subsection (1) of this section.
(b) Radiation machine facilities requiring follow-up inspections due to uncorrected noncompliance events must pay an inspection follow-up fee of $1,608 for each reinspection required.
(4) The annual radiation machine facility registration fees and radiation machine tube fees are not transferable to another geographical location or registrant.
