Physical Protection of Irradiated Reactor Fuel in Transit (US Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulation) (NRC) (2018 Edition)

Physical Protection of Irradiated Reactor Fuel in Transit (US Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulation) (NRC) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Physical Protection of Irradiated Reactor Fuel in Transit (US Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulation) (NRC) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its security regulations for the transport of irradiated reactor fuel (the terms "irradiated reactor fuel" and "spent nuclear fuel" are used interchangeably in this rule). This rulemaking establishes generically applicable security requirements similar to the requirements currently imposed by NRC Order EA-02-109, "Issuance of Order for Interim Safeguards and Security Compensatory Measures for the Transportation of Spent Nuclear Fuel Greater than 100 Grams." This rulemaking also establishes performance standards and objectives for the protection of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) shipments from theft, diversion, or radiological sabotage. Additionally, this rulemaking addresses, in part, a 1999 petition for rulemaking from the State of Nevada (PRM-73-10) that requests the NRC to strengthen the regulations governing the security of SNF shipments against malevolent acts. This rule will apply to each NRC licensee who transports, or delivers to a carrier for transport SNF.
