Commencement of construction prior to the department's conclusion in subd. 1. shall be grounds for denial of a license to receive and possess radioactive material in such plant or facility. As used in this paragraph the term "commencement of construction" means any clearing of land, excavation, or other substantial action that would adversely affect the environment of a site. The term does not mean site exploration, necessary roads for site exploration, borings to determine foundation conditions, or other pre-construction monitoring or testing to establish background information related to the suitability of the site or the protection of environmental values.(d) The applicant satisfies any applicable requirements in subs. (3), (4) and (6), s. DHS 157.15 and subchs. IV, V and VI.(e) The applicant pays all applicable fees as specified in s.

(a) This subsection prescribes requirements for the issuance of specific licenses of broad scope for radioactive material and certain regulations governing holders of the licenses.(b) The different types of broad scope licenses are as follows:1. A "Type A specific license of broad scope" is a specific license authorizing receipt, acquisition, ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical or physical form of the radioactive material specified in the license, but not exceeding quantities specified in the license, for any authorized purpose. The quantities specified are usually in the multicurie range, but may be limited based on types of radioactive materials, proposed use and the training and experience of users.2. A "Type B specific license of broad scope" is a specific license authorizing receipt, acquisition, ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical or physical form of radioactive material specified in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, for any authorized purpose. The possession limit for a Type B license of broad scope, if only one radionuclide is possessed under the license, is the quantity specified for that radionuclide in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, Column I. If 2 or more radionuclides are possessed under the license, the possession limit for each is determined as follows: For each radionuclide, determine the ratio of the quantity possessed to the applicable quantity specified in ch.

A "Type C specific license of broad scope" is a specific license authorizing receipt, acquisition, ownership, possession, use and transfer of any chemical or physical form of radioactive material specified in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, for any authorized purpose. The possession limit for a Type C license of broad scope, if only one radionuclide is possessed thereunder, is the quantity specified for that radionuclide in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, Column II. If 2 or more radionuclides are possessed thereunder, the possession limit is determined for each as follows: For each radionuclide, determine the ratio of the quantity possessed to the applicable quantity specified in ch. DHS 157 Appendix C, Column II, for that radionuclide. The sum of the ratios for all radionuclides possessed under the license may not exceed unity.(c) The department shall approve an application for a Type A specific license of broad scope if all the following occurs: 1.

Submit a decommissioning plan within 12 months if required by par. (f) and begin decommissioning upon approval of that plan.(e) Concurrent with the notification required by par. (d), the licensee shall maintain in effect all decommissioning financial assurances established by the licensee pursuant to s. DHS 157.15 in conjunction with a license issuance or renewal or as required by this section. The amount of the financial assurance shall be increased, or may be decreased, as appropriate, to cover the detailed cost estimate for decommissioning established pursuant to par. (f) 4. Following approval of the decommissioning plan and with the department's approval, a licensee may reduce the amount of the financial assurance as decommissioning proceeds and radiological contamination is reduced at the site.(f) A licensee shall submit a decommissioning plan to the department if required by license condition or if the procedures and activities necessary to carry out decommissioning of the site, separate building or outdoor area have not been previously approved by the department and the procedures and activities may adversely effect the health and safety of workers or the public. The procedures may not be carried out prior to the department's approval of the decommissioning plan. Examples of applicable procedures and activities include any of the following cases: 1. Procedures that would involve techniques not applied routinely during cleanup or maintenance operations.2. Procedures by which workers would be entering areas not normally occupied where surface contamination and radiation levels are significantly higher than routinely encountered during operation.3. Procedures that could result in significantly greater airborne concentrations of radioactive materials than are present during operation.4. Procedures that could result in significantly greater releases of radioactive material to the environment than those associated with operation.(g) The department may approve an alternate schedule for submittal of a decommissioning plan required pursuant to par. (d) if the department determines that the alternative schedule is necessary to the effective conduct of decommissioning operations and presents no undue risk from radiation to the public health and safety and is otherwise in the public interest.(h) The proposed decommissioning plan for the site or separate building or outdoor area shall include all of the following elements:1. A description of the conditions of the site, separate building or outdoor area sufficient to evaluate the acceptability of the plan.2. A description of planned decommissioning activities.3. A description of methods used to ensure protection of workers and the environment against radiation hazards during decommissioning.4. A description of the planned final radiation survey.5.

Whether it is technically feasible to complete decommissioning within the allotted 24-month period.2. Whether sufficient waste disposal capacity is available to allow completion of decommissioning within the allotted 24-month period.3. Whether a significant volume reduction in wastes requiring disposal will be achieved by allowing short-lived radionuclides to decay.4. Whether a significant reduction in radiation exposure to workers may be achieved by allowing short-lived radionuclides to decay.5. Other site-specific factors which the department may consider appropriate on a case-by-case basis, such as the regulatory requirements of other government agencies, court decisions, ground-water treatment activities, monitored natural ground-water restoration, actions that could result in more environmental harm than deferred cleanup, and other factors beyond the control of the licensee.(l) As the final step in decommissioning, a licensee shall do all the following: 1. Certify the disposition of all licensed material, including accumulated wastes, by submitting a completed department form for disposition of radioactive materials or equivalent information.
