Criteria To Return Retired Nuclear Power Reactors to Operations
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) received a petition for rulemaking from Mr. George Berka (the petitioner), dated December 26, 2018, requesting that the NRC amend its regulations to establish criteria to return retired nuclear power reactors to operations. The petition was docketed by the NRC on February 19, 2019 and has been assigned Docket No. PRM-50-117. The NRC is examining the merits of the issues raised in PRM-50-117 to determine whether the issues should be considered in rulemaking. The NRC is requesting public comment on this petition at this time.
Release of Patients Administered Radioactive Material
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment draft regulatory guide (DG), DG-8057, ``Release of Patients Administered Radioactive Material.'' This proposed guide, Revision 1, provides licensees with more detailed instructions to provide to patients before and after they have been administered radioactive material than was in Revision 0. In addition, the guide includes a new section on ``Death of a Patient Following Radiopharmaceutical or Implants Administrations,'' as well as requirements for recordkeeping. Also, Table 3, ``Dosages of Radiopharmaceuticals That Require Instructions and Records When Administered to Patients Who Are Breastfeeding an Infant or Child,'' has been revised to provide information for the recommended duration of interruption of breastfeeding to ensure that the dose to an infant or child meets the NRC's regulatory requirements.
