The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has rejected a petition for rulemaking submitted by Sally Shaw on June 23, 2006, which sought to update the Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants to reflect new information on radiation standards and risk factors from the National Academy of Sciences' report 'Health Risks From Exposure to Low Levels of Ionizing Radiation: Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) VII, Phase 2,' published in 2005.
