U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION STANDARD REVIEW PLAN: LICENSEE REQUESTS TO DELAY INITIATION OF DECOMMISSIONING ACTIVITIES NRC's " Timeliness in Decommissioning of Materials Facility" rule (hereafter the Timeliness Rule), became effective on August 15,1994. The Timeliness Rule established the criteria i
necessary to avoid future problems resulting from delayed decommissioning of contaminated inactive facilities, separate buildings, and outdoor areas.
In May 1996, the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) filed a petition for rulemaking to amend the i
Timeliness Rule to allow licensees to delay decommissioning and operate in a " standby" mode.
NRC denied NEl's petition for rulemaking because the Timeliness Rule contains provisions which allow licensee's to request delays or postponement of decommissioning, provided they can demonstrate that the delay is not detrimental to the public health and safety and is otherwise in the public interest. However, along with denying the petition, the Commission requested that NRC prepare guidance to identify the acceptance criteria necessary to demonstrate that postponement of decommissioning activities will not be detrimental to the public health and safety and is otherwise in the public interest, in response to the Commission request, NRC has developed the draft Standard Review Plan (SRP) titled," Licensee Requests to Delay initiation of Decommissioning Activities." NRC has posted the draft SRP on the internet (www.nrc.oov/NMSS/DWM/DECOM/decomm.htm) to provide interested parties an opportunity to review and comment on NRC's acceptance criteria necessary to demonstrate that postponement of decommissioning activities will not be detrimental to the public health and safety and is otherwise in the public interest. NRC will consider all comments received in finalizing the SRP for implementation.
