Universal Citation: 180 NE Admin Rules and Regs ch 4 ยง 015

Current through September 17, 2024

The radiological criteria for termination of a license are as follows.

015.01 GENERAL PROVISIONS AND SCOPE. The criteria in 180 NAC 4 apply to the decommissioning of facilities licensed under 180 NAC 3. The criteria do not apply to uranium and thorium recovery facilities or to uranium solution extraction facilities.

015.02 LIMITATIONS. The criteria in 180 NAC 4 do not apply to sites which:

(A) Were decommissioned prior to May 27, 2000 in accordance criteria identified in the Site Decommissioning Management Plan Action Plan of April 16, 1992 (57 FR 13389); or

(B) Previously submitted and received Department approval on a decommissioning plan that is compatible with the Site Decommissioning Management Plan Action Plan criteria.

015.03 ADDITIONAL CLEANUP. After a site has been decommissioned and the license terminated in accordance with the criteria in 180 NAC 4, a former licensee must conduct additional cleanup only if, based on new information, the Department determines that the criteria of 180 NAC 4 were not met and residual radioactivity remaining at the site could result in significant threat to public health and safety.

015.04 PEAK TOTAL EFFECTIVE DOSE EQUIVALENT. When calculating total effective dose equivalent (TEDE) to the average member of the critical group the license must determine the peak annual total effective dose equivalent (TEDE) dose expected within the first 1000 years after decommissioning.
