Radioactive Material Program Proposed Fee Changes
DWMRC is proposing to increase Radioactive Material (RAM) Program fees to ensure fees cover the cost of the RAM program and to add an additional full-time employee (FTE). The additional FTE is to improve turnaround times of licensing actions to provide better customer service to RAM licensees. DWMRC values the input of stakeholders regarding these changes. The table below summarizes current fees and proposed fees per license type.
