10 CFR 30.70 - Schedule A—Exempt concentrations.
| Element (atomic number) | Isotope | Col. I | Col. II |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gas concentration µCi/ml 1 | Liquid and solid concentration µCi/ml 2 | ||
| Footnotes to Schedule A: | |||
| 1 Values are given only for those materials normally used as gases. | |||
| 2 µCi/gm for solids. | |||
| Note 1: Many radioisotopes disintegrate into isotopes which are also radioactive. In expressing the concentrations in Schedule A, the activity stated is that of the parent isotope and takes into account the daughters. | |||
| Note 2: For purposes of § 30.14 where there is involved a combination of isotopes, the limit for the combination should be derived as follows: | |||
| Determine for each isotope in the product the ratio between the concentration present in the product and the exempt concentration established in Schedule A for the specific isotope when not in combination. The sum of such ratios may not exceed “1” (i.e., unity). | |||

The DPR went into effect on December 17, 2012, and is intended to minimize the likelihood of new “legacy sites,” which are NRC-licensed facilities with insufficient resources to complete decommissioning activities and termination of a license at the end of operations.

GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2013-05895 RIN 3150-AI12 NRC-2008-0120 NRC-2010-0194 NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Final rule. Effective Date: This final rule is effective on May 20, 2013. Compliance Date: Compliance with this final rule is required on March 19, 2014. 10 CFR Parts 20, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 39, 51, 71, and 73 The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its regulations to establish security requirements for the use and transport of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material. The NRC considers these quantities to be risk significant and, therefore, to warrant additional protection. Category 1 and category 2 thresholds are based on the quantities established by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in its Code of Conduct on the Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources, which the NRC endorses. The objective of this final rule is to provide reasonable assurance of preventing the theft or diversion of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material. The regulations also include security requirements for the transportation of irradiated reactor fuel that weighs 100 grams or less in net weight of irradiated fuel. The final rule affects any licensee that possesses an aggregated category 1 or category 2 quantity of radioactive material, any licensee that transports these materials using ground transportation, and any licensee that transports small quantities of irradiated reactor fuel. The rule also considers a petition for rulemaking (PRM-71-13) submitted by the State of Washington that requested that the NRC adopt the use of global positioning satellite tracking as a national requirement for vehicles transporting highly radioactive mobile or portable radioactive devices.
