Decommissioning

["Mike Wade" <mwade@motacorp.com>]

Was the questions from this thread ever answered on congress authorizing

funding for inactive reactors?  







This is a bit off topic, but I have a habit of going off topic now and then.

I would like to know what the rem/dollar ratio is for as many power plants

and/or any other operations out there which utilize the ALARA methodology.

I'm one of those annoying "ALARA People" and I need to develop a stronger

basis for my program than "that's the number we have always used". Any

information would be greatly appreciated. Please include the name of the

plant/organization along with the dollar/rem ratio.

 

Thanx in advance,

 

Floyd W. Flanigan B.S.Nuc.H.P.

Subject: U of Illionois News Release - research Reactor Decommissioning

Importance: High







I saw a recent news release - from yesterday in fact - from the U of I that

stated that:



 



 "Congress recently authorized funding to assist with the start of the

decommissioning process of selected inactive reactors, including the one at

Illinois."



 



I was not aware of this - is there anyone out there who can point me to this

authorization?



 



Thanks
