1979ref. 69168Washington DC: Nuclear Regulatory Commission 1979. Presumed first edition/first printing. Wraps. Good. Cover has some sunning/fading. Interior is very good. Various paginations approximately 300 pages. Illustrations. Diagrams. Maps. References. The NRC Authorization Bill for Fiscal 1979 directed the NRC to conduct a study of extending the Commisson's licensing or regulatory authority to include categories of existing and future Federal radioactive waste storage and disposal activities not presently subject to such authority. The report includes a complete listing and inventory of all radioactive waste storage and disposal activities now being conducted or planned by Federal agencies. The NRC study has attempted to present a general comparison of the relative hazards associated with defense-generated and commercial wastes. Options for extending the Commission authority were developed and analyzed. The implications of NEPA were analyzed in the context of these options. The national security implications of extending NRC's regulatory authority voer DOE programs are examined and evaluated. Costs and benefits are identified and assessed. The Commission's recommendations based on the study are to extend licensing authority over new DOE disposal activities involving transuranic wastes and non-defense low-level waste and to initiate a pilot program to test the feasibility of NRC playing a consultative role in the evaluation of existing DOE activities.

List of Documents. The Commission on Maintaining United States Nuclear Weapons Expertise hereafter referred to as the Commission was prescribed by the National Defense Authorization Act of FY 1997. The Congress identified the need for the Commission because of the substantial changes in the environment affecting nuclear weapons design production and testing since the end of the Cold War. In view of these changes the Commission was tasked with reviewing ongoing efforts of Department of Energy DOE to attract scientific engineering and technical personnel recommending improvements and identifying actions where needed and developing a plan for recruitment and retention within the DOE nuclear weapons complex.1 We have arrived at 12 recommendations in four areas: national commitment program management personnel policies and oversight. What the Commission proposed was not a classic plan in the narrow sense but a series of recommendations to assure that critical well-qualified personnel are available to execute the Stockpile Stewardship Program SSP and to assure the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile today and in future years. The Commission was directed to "Develop a plan for recruiting and retaining within the Department of Energy DOE nuclear weapons complex such scientified engineering and technical personnel as the Commission determines appropriate in order to permit the Department to maintain over the long term a safe and reliable nuclear weapons stockpile without engaging in underground nuclear testing.
