It will take a few years to create new decommissioning rules, and they will not affect Vermont Yankee decommissioning, says the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. But Safe & Green Campaign believes other states and citizens groups should learn for the lessons we are currently being taught about decommissioning. This was just posted, so it will take a bit to process. We will post our own comments for you to read at a later date. For now, below is the link from the Federal Register as of November 19, 2015.
We have 45 days to comment (before January 4, 2016).
Regulatory Improvements for Decommissioning Power Reactors
Just in case you are free all day Wednesday December 9, the NRC is hosting a meeting on decommissioning rules. It is in Rockville, MD but you can tune in on line and comment. NRC 12.09.15 ML15306A003
