Does the NRC require submission of shielding calculations for treatment rooms as part of the license application?
While there is no “requirement” that shielding calculations be provided, in order to issue a license, the Commission must find that facilities are adequate to protect health and minimize danger to life or property as required under §30.33(a) and/or §35.18(a). For types of use permitted by §35.600, the shielding calculations for the facility are needed by the Commission to make this finding.
