U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Guide Series. Division 4. Environmental and Siting. (Regulatory Guide 4.20 Revision 1). Constraint on Releases of Airborne Radioactive Materials to the Environment for Licensees Other than Power Reactors.

摘要

In 1996, the NRC added regulations regarding a constraint on airborne emissions of radioactive materials to the environment as part of an agreement with EPA to resolve dual regulation of airborne emissions of radioactive material under both the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the Clean Air Act of 1970, as amended. EPA subsequently rescinded its Clean Air Act regulations in Subpart I, National Emission Standards for Radionuclide Emissions from Federal Facilities Other Than Nuclear Regulatory Commission Licensees Not Covered by Subpart H, of 40 CFR Part 61, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, as they applied to NRC licensees other than power reactors.
