Issuance of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection

요약

This notice is to advise the public of the issuance of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP). The MOU provides the basis for cooperation between the agencies to facilitate the safe and timely remediation and decommissioning of Site Decommissioning Management Plan Sites (SDMP) and other decommissioning sites in Pennsylvania at which both agencies exercise regulatory authority. The broad MOU expresses the desire of PADEP and the NRC to cooperate in areas subject to the jurisdiction of both parties. Under the MOU, PADEP and NRC will designate site coordinators for each SDMP site in Pennsylvania. Each agency will provide the other with reasonable notice of inspections, and meetings with other agencies or the public which concern a particular SDMP site. The MOU also provides the basis for the dissemination of information between the agencies and the review and comment of draft documents.
