An Act amending the act of July 10, 1984 (P.L.688, No.147), known as the Radiation Protection Act, in general provisions, further providing for definitions; and, in fees, providing for small modular reactor and microreactor fees and further providing for creation of special funds.

HB 2017 amends Pennsylvania's Radiation Protection Act (1984) by updating definitions related to radiation safety and revising fees for nuclear facilities and radioactive material transport. It directly affects nuclear power plant operators and companies transporting radioactive materials by changing how these fees are calculated and collected. The bill clarifies specific terms used in the original law and adjusts fee structures to reflect current operational standards. These changes aim to modernize the regulatory framework governing radiation safety oversight.
