    Any nuclear fuel assembly containing fissile-bearing material that has been irradiated in and removed from a nuclear reactor facility. → irradiated reactor fuel means fuel that has been withdrawn from a nuclear reactor following irradiation, the constituent elements of which have not been separated by reprocessing.

    The Agency may collect, store, and dispose of uncontrolled sources of radiation that have entered the public domain and that the Agency considers to be a threat to public health and safety or the environment.

    This establishes new authority for the Agency to manage uncontrolled sources of radiation.

  • 420 ILCS 40/50

    The Agency may assess actual costs, as appropriate, for the collection, storage, and disposal of uncontrolled sources of radiation that have entered the public domain and that the Agency considers to be a threat to public health and safety or the environment against any person that owns, owned, possesses, or is responsible for the radioactive material entering the public domain.
