Nonreactor Nuclear Facility 2
Nonreactor Nuclear Facility 2 : Those activities or operations that involve radioactive and/or fissionable materials in such a form and quantity that a nuclear hazard potentially exists to the employees or the general public. Incidental use and generation of radioactive materials in facility operation (e.g., check and calibration sources, use of radioactive sources in research and experimental and analytical laboratory activities, electron microscope, and X-ray machines) would not ordinarily require the facility to be included in this definition. Transportation of radioactive materials, accelerators and reactors and their operations are not included. The application of any rule to a nonreactor nuclear facility shall be applied using a graded approach. Included are activities or operations that: (1) Produce, process, or store radioactive liquid or solid waste, fissionable materials, or tritium; (2) Conduct separations operations; (3) Conduct irradiated materials inspections, fuel fabrication, decontamination, or recovery operations; (4) Conduct fuel enrichment operations; (5) Perform environmental remediation or waste management activities involving radioactive materials; or (6) Design, manufacture, or assemble items for use with radioactive materials and/or fissionable materials in such a form or quantity that a nuclear hazard potentially exists
