Nuclear Regulatory Commission Denies Chromalloy's Petition for Rulemaking

Summary

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has denied a petition by Chromalloy Tallahassee, a division of Chromalloy Gas Turbine Corporation, to amend regulations regarding the exemption from licensing of source material found in 10 CFR 40.13(c)(8). The NRC found no benefits in granting the petition and determined that denying it would not have a negative impact on Chromalloy, as the company can currently repair battle tank engines containing nickel-thoria alloy parts under existing conditions.
