NRC Eliminates Site Decommissioning Management Plan Designation for SDMP Sites

Summary

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has decided to eliminate the Site Decommissioning Management Plan (SDMP) designation for sites and manage the SDMP sites as part of a comprehensive decommissioning program, which aims to facilitate the cleanup of routine and complex sites in a timely manner. This change is effective as the original intent of the SDMP has been achieved, and the cleanup of these sites is now managed more effectively as part of the larger program.
