Specific Licensing of Exports of Certain Alpha-Emitting Radionuclides and Byproduct Material
Traduzione automatica locale · Lingua originale della fonte
Riepilogo
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its regulations to establish specific licensing controls on the export of bulk tritium, transuranic isotopes americium-242m, californium-249, californium-251, curium-245, curium-247, and certain specified alpha- emitting radionuclides; revise and establish new general licenses for tritium and the specified alpha-emitting radionuclides which are keyed to the recipient country's membership in the Nuclear Suppliers Group; remove Argentina, Brazil, and Chile from the list of restricted destinations; and revise the general license for exports of Canadian- origin uranium. The amendments are necessary to conform the export controls of the United States to international export control guidelines and a treaty obligation of the U.S. under the U.S.-Canada Agreement for Cooperation.
