Rulemaking Discontinued on Residual Radioactivity

Remediation of Residual Rad.pdf

On October 6, 2017 (82 FR 46666) the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) discontinued a rulemaking activity that would have required licensees to remediate residual radioactivity resulting from licensed activities during facility operations, rather than at license termination. The purpose of this action is to inform members of the public that this rulemaking activity is discontinued and to provide a brief discussion of the NRC's decision to discontinue it. This rulemaking activity will no longer be reported in the NRC's portion of the Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions (the Unified Agenda).  This action was effective October 6, 2017.
