3150-AI92 202010 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 3150 Nuclear Regulatory Commission NRC Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal [NRC-2011-0012]

This rulemaking would amend the NRC's regulations to revise the licensing requirements for low-level radioactive waste disposal. The rule would ensure that the waste streams that are significantly different from those considered during the development of existing regulations will continue to be disposed of safely and meet the performance objectives for land disposal of low-level radioactive waste. The rule would require certain licensees and applicants to conduct site-specific analyses, including a new intruder assessment, using a specified compliance period and would make other clarifying changes.
