The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management Board is responsible for the oversight of all low-level radioactive waste generated within the Commonwealth. The Management Board monitors the activities of over 400 low-level radioactive materials licensees in the Commonwealth, including universities, hospitals, biotechnology firms, and utilities, in order to ensure that low-level radioactive waste is stored or disposed of in a manner that does not threaten public health, safety, or the environment.

Budget Recommendations

The amount recommended for Fiscal Year 1999 will enable the Board to provide the same level of services as in Fiscal Year 1998.
