This Program Plan describes a multi-year program initiated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to assess and evaluate the methods, radiation exposure and costs associated with decommmissioning of retired nuclear facilities. The objective of this program is to provide the NRC licensing staff with comparative data that will allow assessment of decommissioning alternatives for regulatory and ALARA implementation of future decommissioning proposals. The program is currently limited to nuclear reactors. Licensees currently decommissioning a facility or licensees who are planning decommissioning projects will be solicited for inclusion in the program. An analysis will be performed for each project and will include a comparison of the methods, costs and exposure usage with data contained in generic decommissioning studies.
