DOST-PNRI issues guidelines for nuclear licensees, applicants during ECQ
The Department of Science and Technology - Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (DOST-PNRI) recently issued new guidelines for its licensees and license applicants for nuclear/radioactive materials and facilities. The guidelines, which also include relief from regulatory requirements, were crafted for the temporary change brought about by the Enhanced Community Quarantine in Metro Manila to the Institute’s regulatory services.
PNRI Information Notice 2020-02, S. 2020 covers adjustments to several regulatory processes due to the limited movement and physical access as part of preventing the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Adjustments in processes include applications for new license, license renewal or amendment; and certificates of exemption, non-radioactive material, and release and permit to transport. Also included are new guidelines in the request for relief from regulatory requirements.
Notable among the guidelines is the shift to online processing of applications. Also detailed in the guidelines are the schedules for receiving applications; required documents; procedures for claiming licenses, certificates and permits; and resumption of other processes once the ECQ has been lifted and government office work resumes.
In consideration of the constraints caused by the ECQ, PNRI will also allow licensees and authorization holders to be relieved from certain regulatory requirements upon request.
As mandated by Republic Acts 2067 and 5207, as well as Executive Order 128, PNRI serves as the national regulatory body for nuclear and radioactive materials and facilities.
The PNRI Information Notice 2020-02, S. 2020 is accessible here.
