SUBJECT:

STAFF REQUIREMENTS - STRATEGIC PROGRAMMATIC OVERVIEW OF THE DECOMMISSIONING AND LOW-LEVEL WASTE AND NUCLEAR MATERIALS USERS BUSINESS LINES On January 26, 2023, the Commission was briefed by the NRC staff on topics associated with the Decommissioning and Low-Level Waste business line and the Nuclear Material Users business line. The meeting, which was held in the Commissioners Hearing Room, One White Flint North, Rockville, Maryland at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, was open to members of the public attending in person and via webcast.

The staff should develop and have in place performance metrics to measure the effectiveness of knowledge management tools by the end of FY 2023.

Within 120 days of the issuance of this SRM, the staff should provide a notation vote paper to the Commission evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of different options for the licensing of emerging technologies used for remediation of mine waste. The paper should analyze any legal constraints on the options and discuss the viability of alternative statutory and regulatory interpretations.

Within 120 days of the issuance of this SRM, the staff should review the U.S. Department of Energys (DOEs) successful effort to assess the need for nuclear technology graduates, to increase nuclear technology enrollments, and preserve university programs and research reactors. Identify DOEs best practices that would be appropriate for NRC to adopt and inform the Commission.
