Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) This rule covers the licensing of the
			 storage and safe isolation of licensable radioactive waste, and not disposal of
			 such waste as delineated in rules
			 3701:1-54-06
			 to
			 3701:1-54-12
			 of the Administrative Code, over the term of a license prior to disposal in
			 accordance with Chapter 3701:1-38 of the Administrative Code, and other rules

			 rule are in addition to those in Chapters 3701:1-40, 3701:1-44 and 3701:1-56 of
			 the Administrative Code, and other rules pursuant to Chapter 3748. of the
			 Revised Code. The requirements of this rule apply to all generators of
			 radioactive waste, and those that store radioactive waste, as follows:
(1) All of the requirements of this rule
			 apply to an assured isolation facility (AIF) used by more than one licensee to
			 hold radioactive waste for storage or any radioactive waste generator who
			 proposes to store radioactive waste at a location other than their currently
			 licensed facility.
(2) Licensees

			 decommissioning plan in place as of the date of this rule, are exempt from the
			 licensing requirements of this rule.
(3) Notwithstanding the requirements of
			 paragraph (A)(2) of this rule, licensees that demonstrate a need to hold their
			 own radioactive waste beyond a five year period at their currently licensed
			 facility may apply for an amendment to the license under which the waste is
			 currently stored. The license amendment will be based on the licensee's needs,
			 but will not permit storage beyond a total of ten years from the date that the
			 waste was generated. The amendment may be approved if the director finds that
			 the licensee (a) provides good cause for the need for the extension, (b)
			 demonstrates that the waste will continue to be safely stored during the
			 extension, and (c) submits a planned schedule for the disposition of the
			 waste.

								quality assurance program must include the following
			 elements: the design, purchase, fabrication, handling, shipping, storing,
			 cleaning, assembly, inspection, testing, operation, maintenance, repair,
			 modification of structures, systems, and components, that are important to
			 safety. The quality assurance requirements also apply to the
			 operational procedures for ensuring compliance with safety
			 requirements.
(B) The quality
			 assurance functions are to:
(1) Ensure that
			 an appropriate quality assurance program is established and effectively
			 executed;
(2) Verify, by procedures
			 such as checking, auditing, and inspection, that activities affecting the
			 functions that are important to safety have been correctly performed;
			 and
(3) Ensure that the persons and
			 organizations performing quality assurance functions have sufficient authority
			 and organizational freedom to identify quality problems; to initiate,
			 recommend, or provide solutions; and to verify implementation of
			 solutions.

			 requirements for the land disposal of radioactive waste received from another
			 licensee.
(2) The objectives are
			 to protect the public health and safety, to minimize exposures to ionizing
			 radiation, and not to adversely affect the environment from the land disposal
			 of radioactive wastes received from another licensee.
(3) The land disposal requirements in rules
			 3701:1-54-06 to
