This guide provides the activities listed below as examples; they are not meant to be all inclusive or to imply that a given licensee should include each of the activities in the decommissioning process. The description of the licensee’s planned decommissioning activities should provide a site-specific overview of all the activities that occur from the time of certification of permanent removal of the fuel to the anticipated termination of the license.
