Shielding requirements — New Hampshire

X-ray shieldingrequirements in New Hampshire.

Plain-language guidance for imaging facilities in New Hampshire — what to file, who regulates it, and where a shielding design fits in the process.

The short answer

New Hampshire requires one original, signed machine-registration application for each X-ray or MRI unit. Send it to the Radiological Health Section with the fee, business-registration proof, and installer records.

The usual order of operations

01

Shielding design before construction

A qualified physicist calculates every barrier — walls, floor, ceiling, doors, and windows — for your exact equipment, layout, workload, and adjacent occupancy.

02

Register with the state

Radiation machines are registered with the state radiation-control program, usually before or as operations begin.

03

Build and install per the design

Your contractor builds to the material specifications in the shielding report — no guesswork at the job site.

04

Plan review and final checks

Where the state or local authority requires it, the report goes in for plan review; a post-installation survey closes the loop where required.

Requirements change and vary by project. The current rules of the responsible radiation-control authority always control — we confirm them for your project as part of every design.
