Locations of Uranium Recovery FacilitiesThe U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) currently regulates operating uranium recovery facilities in Wyoming, New Mexico, and Nebraska. However, the NRC does not directly regulate the active uranium recovery operations in Texas, Colorado, and Utah, as they are Agreement States, meaning that they have entered into strict agreements with the NRC to exercise regulatory authority over this type of material. The following map depicts the locations of these sites, while the tables below the map identify the licensed facilities, as well as those sites with applications in review. For additional detail, see Applications, Restarts, and Expansions and Related Information, below. Licensed Uranium Recovery FacilitiesThe following table provides information on uranium recovery facilities that currently have licenses issued by the NRC. See Locations of Uranium Recovery Sites Undergoing Decommissioning for information on sites that are currently decommissioning, as well as sites under the U.S. Department of Energy's long-term general license.

Some links on this page are to documents in our our Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). For additional information, see our Plugins, Viewers, and Other Tools.
