PREFACE

Contents. This committee print replaces the edition of the compilation of selected nuclear energy legislation dated January 1994. It contains the texts of the primary nuclear energy and radioactive waste laws within the jurisdiction of the Committee on Energy and Commerce of the House of Representatives, as well as certain additional laws and materials of particular interest to members of the committee in considering legislation in these areas. The compilation has been updated through December 31, 1993, and includes the additions and revisions made to the nuclear energy laws during the 101st and 102d Congresses and the 1st session of the 103d Congress.

Organization.-Part A of the compilation contains laws relating to nuclear energy programs. Parts B through D contain laws relating to radioactive wastes and uranium revitalization. Part E contains additional related laws. Finally, part F contains miscellaneous tables designed to assist in the use of the compilation.

United States Code.-As its title indicates, this committee print contains only selected laws relating to nuclear energy and radioactive waste. Additional laws, including reporting and other requirements of temporary duration, may be found in the United States Code.

The United States Code, and the several commercial publications of the Code, contain additional information that may be extremely useful in understanding the laws contained in this committee print. For example, the relevant section in the Code will provide the reader with information on specific amendments made to the section since its enactment, effective dates and transitional provisions, executive orders, delegations and transfers of functions, and cross references to other sections dealing with similar subject matters. Commercial publications of the Code also indicate relevant judicial decisions issued under each section. For the benefit of the reader, the United States Code citations are shown in brackets at the end of each Public Law section in the committee print. These citations are not a part of the text of the laws in which they appear.

Comments and Suggestions.-Comments and suggestions for improvements in future editions of this compilation are encouraged, and may be addressed to the attention of Frederick Dichter, Office of the Legislative Counsel, United States House of Representatives, 136 Cannon House Office Building, Washington, DC 20515.
