FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David J. Wrona, Division of Licensing
Project Management, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Washington,
DC 20555-0001 (telephone 301-415-1924).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Nuclear power reactor licensees are
required, per 10 CFR 50.75, to adjust annually the estimated
decommissioning costs of their nuclear facilities in order to ensure
adequate funds are available for decommissioning. The regulation
references NUREG-1307 as the appropriate source for obtaining the
adjustment factor for waste burial/disposition costs; this Revision 9
of NUREG-1307 provides the current waste burial costs at the Washington
and South Carolina disposal sites. In addition, this revision provides
costs for low-level radioactive waste disposition using waste vendors.
Licensees can factor these numbers into the adjustment formula, as
specified in 10 CFR 50.75(c)(2), to determine the minimum
decommissioning fund requirement for their nuclear facilities.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 6th day of October 2000.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Michael T. Masnik,
Chief, Decommissioning Section, Project Directorate IV &
Decommissioning, Division of Licensing Project Management, Office of
Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
