Listing of decommissioned non-nuclear power generating reactors & other small nuclear facilities

[Larry Boing <lboing@anl.gov>]

Fellow radsafers,

I am trying to locate information on the US national decommissioning
experience.  Not remediation (ie dirt and Superfund Clean-ups) but nuclear
facility decommissioning.  I have several listings of decommissioned
facilities I routinely use in my work.  These were compiled by the USDOE and
the IAEA among others.  These generally cover 1)commercial nuclear power
plants, 2)research reactors and 3)some uranium mining & milling facilities
and a few other fuel cycle facilities.  I have a copy of some decommissioned
large accelerators from an ANL report (prepared in 1979) that I use for
maintaining a listing of these types of facilites.

Where I need help is in identifying those NRC licensed or state licensed
facilites that are decommissioned that do not fit into any of the Categories
#1-3 above.  Does the NRC or state regulatory agencies maintain such
listings?  How do you get these?  Does anyone have a listing of accelerator
facilites decommissioned since 1979 or know where I can obtain one?  Thanks
for your help.  (Please send replies to the e-mail address below.)
