Branch Technical Position on the Import of Non-U.S. Origin Radioactive Sources: Final 

Branch Technical Position; 10 CFR Part 110 (NRC-2012-0008)

On August 28, 2013, the NRC published a document in the Federal Register (78 FR 53020), 

making available a final branch technical position on the import of non-U.S. origin radioactive 

sources. On July 28, 2010, the NRC published a final rule (75 FR 44072), amending its 

regulations concerning export and import of nuclear equipment and material. That final rule, 

among other things, added the phrase “of U.S. origin” to the first exclusion to the definition of 

“radioactive waste” to confirm that the return of U.S. origin radioactive sources is not classified 

as the import of radioactive waste. This final branch technical position provides additional 

guidance on the application of this exclusion in the regulations. This branch technical position 

becomes effective on September 27, 2013.
