{"abstract":"The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) has received, by letter dated August 20, 2009, a license amendment application from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA or the licensee), requesting approval of a Decommissioning Plan for its Low-Level Radioactive Burial Site located in Beltsville, Maryland. License No. 19-00915-03 authorizes the licensee to use radioactive byproduct material for research and development activities and for use in gauging and measurement devices. The licensee revised the original plan and re-submitted the amendment request. Specifically, the amendment provides a Decommissioning Plan for the excavation and disposal of low-level radioactive waste from its research and development activities that had been disposed in a previously permitted low-level waste burial area at the Beltsville site.","action":"License amendment request; opportunity to provide comments, request a hearing and petition for leave to intervene, and order.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION","name":"Nuclear Regulatory Commission","id":383,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/nuclear-regulatory-commission","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/383","parent_id":null,"slug":"nuclear-regulatory-commission"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2012/07/11/2012-16904.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"77 FR 40917","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2012-08-10","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments must be filed by August 10, 2012.
