Talk:Agreement State

What are the steps in the process by which a State becomes an Agreement State?

• The Governor sends a letter to the NRC Chairman expressing the intent to become an Agreement State.
• The State submits a draft application to the NRC for review and comment.
• The Governor certifies that the State has an adequate program and submits a formal request that includes supporting legislation, regulations, program description and staffing.
• The NRC assesses the request and after Commission approval publishes the staff's assessment and proposed Agreement for a 30-day comment period.
• The NRC assesses public comments and prepares a final assessment.
• After Commission approval, the Chairman and the Governor sign the agreement.
