Section 23.1-03-06 - Surety requirements1. The department shall establish by rule standards and instructions it deems necessary or appropriate to ensure:a. The licensee will provide adequate surety for the completion of all requirements established by the department for the decontamination, decommissioning, and stabilization of sites, structures, and equipment used in conjunction with the processing, generation, or disposal of source material, byproduct material, or other radioactive material occurring naturally or produced artificially; andb. If the department determines any long-term maintenance and monitoring is necessary, the licensee will make available the funds required for the necessary maintenance and monitoring, before termination of any license for source material, byproduct material, or other radioactive material occurring naturally or produced artificially.2. Any funds for long-term site surveillance and control must be available to the state if title and custody of source material, byproduct material, or other radioactive material occurring naturally or produced artificially and its disposal site is transferred to the state under subsection 1 of section 23.1-03-05. The funds must be transferred to the United States if title and custody of the source material, byproduct material, or other radioactive material occurring naturally or produced artificially and its disposal site is transferred to the United States upon termination of any license for source material, byproduct material, or other radioactive material occurring naturally or produced artificially. These funds include sums collected for long-term surveillance and if necessary, maintenance. The funds do not include moneys held as surety where no default had occurred and the reclamation or other bonded activity has been performed.3. If the department requires a surety for stabilization or funds for long-term surveillance or maintenance, the amounts must be sufficient to ensure compliance with the standards established by the commission and the department pertaining to financial arrangements to ensure adequate stabilization and long-term management of source material, byproduct material, or other radioactive material occurring naturally or produced artificially and its disposal site.Added by S.L. 2017 , ch. 199( SB 2327 ), § 18, eff. 4/29/2019.
