[ RadSafe ] NRC Cancels Rulemaking for 10 CFR 20 and 10 CFR 50 App I

[William Lipton]

In a "Federal Register" notice published December 28, 2016,  (see
goo.gl/n6TEsj )   the NRC announced that it will not pursue revisions to 10
CFR 20 and 10 CFR 50 Appendix I that were intended to align these
regulations with ICRP Publication 103.

I personally applaud this move, since such regulatory changes require a
large commitment of resources and do not seem to provide significant
benefits.  "If it works, don't try to fix it."
