Nuclear Regulatory Commission January 24, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) plans to conduct a public workshop to discuss proposed revisions to its Low-Level Radioactive Waste (LLRW) disposal regulations and gather information on an update to the NRC's 2007 Strategic Assessment of the LLRW regulatory program from stakeholders and other interested members of the public. The staff is also seeking comments on developments that would affect the LLRW regulatory program in the next 5-7 years, including changes to the national landscape in the LLRW area that would affect licensees and sited States in the context of safety, security, and the protection of the environment. The NRC will accept written comments at the public workshop and welcomes active participation from those attending.
