Decontamination & Decommissioning Task Force
The United States Nuclear Industry Council (USNIC) is committed to successful and effective nuclear power plant (NPP) Decontamination and Decommissioning (D&D) activities in the United States. For this purpose, USNIC has formed a D&D Task Force (DTF) that will obtain and provide information to NIC membership, and others as appropriate, through USNIC’s Back End Working Group (BEWG). The purpose of this information is to:
-
Increase NIC membership awareness and understanding of current trends and decisions regarding D&D processes and activities in the United States;
-
Clarify NIC organizational positions to serve as a foundation for public D&D engagement and education;
-
Facilitate decision-making by the industry and by relevant stakeholders associated with D&D processes and activities;
-
Facilitate dialogue with legislative and regulatory representatives to support effective D&D rulemaking, e.g., for increased cost certainty, clear final site/survey release criteria, and long-term ISFSI monitoring strategies; and
-
Support activities and events that further USNIC’s educational mission on matters related to NPP decommissioning.
