have provided figures for the accumulation of decommissioning funds that included funds accumulated for purposes other than to meet the NRC's decommissioning requirement Therefore, the staff is also issuing this RIS to clarify for licensees the need to preserve the distinction between funds accumulated for radiological decommissioning, which licensees are required to report, and funds accumulated for other purpose
