Agreement States States that have programs to assume partial NRC regulatory authority under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. This authority includes licensing and regulating radioactive byproduct materials source materials (uranium and thorium) and special nuclear materials. [Pg.421]

Intermittent venting is permitted in order to allow a package to be relieved of a buildup of pressure which might, under normal conditions of transport (see paras 719-724) or when the package is subjected to the thermal test (see para. 728), cause it to fail to meet the Regulations. Radioactive release imder normal conditions and under accident conditions, where no operational controls are used, is limited, however, by the provisions of para. 656. [Pg.135]

The disposal of radioactive waste is governed by rules of the NRC and the EPA (19). NRC regulations differ for low level waste and for high level waste, including spent fuel (20). [Pg.230]

Protection of the environment from uncontroHed radioactive release is also a consideration in the use of radiotracers. The quantity and concentration of radionucHdes that may be discharged into sewer systems is limited by regulations of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). [Pg.439]

Graziano s tariff hsts many regulated (dangerous) commodities (Part 172, DOT regulations) for transportation. This includes those that are poisonous, flammable, oxidizing, corrosive, explosive, radioactive, and compressed gases.
