Regulating the Transboundary Movement of Radioactive Sources

  • 1. Office of International Programs, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Rockville, MD (United States)

Description

Since adoption in 2004, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has worked to fully implement the Code of Conduct on the Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources and the Guidance on the Import and Export of Radioactive Sources. By their very nature, import and export provisions may have profound transboundary effects and thus harmonization between different States' regulatory regimes becomes extremely important in the safe and secure movement of these radioactive sources.
