DOE
published a final rule under 10 CFR part
765 in the Federal Register on May 23,
1994, (59 FR 26714) to carry out the
requirements of Title X of the Energy
Policy Act of 1992 (sections 1001–1004
of Public Law 102–486, 42 U.S.C. 2296a
et seq.) and to establish the procedures
for eligible licensees to submit claims
for reimbursement. DOE amended the
final rule on June 3, 2003, (68 FR 32955)
to adopt several technical and
administrative amendments (e.g.,
statutory increases in the
reimbursement ceilings). Title X
requires DOE to reimburse eligible
uranium and thorium licensees for
certain costs of decontamination,
decommissioning, reclamation, and
other remedial action incurred by
licensees at active uranium and thorium
processing sites to remediate byproduct
material generated as an incident of
sales to the United States Government.
To be reimbursable, costs of remedial
action must be for work which is
necessary to comply with applicable
requirements of the Uranium Mill
Tailings Radiation Control Act of 1978
(42 U.S.C. 7901 et seq.) or, where
appropriate, with requirements
established by a State pursuant to a
discontinuance agreement under section
274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954
(42 U.S.C. 2021). Claims for
reimbursement must be supported by
reasonable documentation as
determined by DOE in accordance with
10 CFR part 765. Funds for
reimbursement will be provided from
the Uranium Enrichment
Decontamination and Decommissioning
Fund established at the United States
Department of Treasury pursuant to
section 1801 of the Atomic Energy Act
of 1954 (42 U.S.C. 2297g). Payment or
obligation of funds shall be subject to
the requirements of the Anti-Deficiency
Act (31 U.S.C. 1341).
