OAR 345-050-0040
Standards for Waste Disposal Facilities


OAR 345-050-0040 (Standards for Waste Disposal Facilities) through 345-050-0130 (Ability to Construct and Operate) establish standards for disposal of radioactive waste. The Council shall apply the standards in deciding whether to issue a site certificate for the construction and operation of a waste disposal facility and its related or supporting facilities. If the Council adopts any additional standards, the Council shall do so sufficiently in advance of the close of testimony at a hearing on a site certificate to allow parties to address the standard or if after the close of testimony, in sufficient time to allow the parties an opportunity to supplement their testimony to offer evidence relating to the standard. The Council may use the standards established in OAR 345-050-0040 (Standards for Waste Disposal Facilities) through 345-050-0130 (Ability to Construct and Operate) and any standards adopted under this rule as well as other statutory and regulatory requirements of the Council and federal, state and local agencies in formulating site certificate conditions required by ORS 469.401 (Energy facility site certificate).
