The Department shall not enter into a new agreement with any private entity to host a privately funded reactor at a Department-owned site that would affect the Federal Government’s liability— with respect to the disposal of spent nuclear fuel or high-level radioactive waste, as defined by section 2 of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 ( 42 U.S.C. 10101 ), until the NRC has published a final decision on an application for construction for a repository under section 114(d) of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act ( 42 U.S.C. 10168(d) ); and with respect to operation and decommissioning— unless such private entity has obtained and is maintaining financial protection of such type and in such amounts as the NRC shall require to cover public liability claims pursuant to section 170 of the Atomic Energy Act; and until such private entity has provided reasonable assurance that funds will be available for the decommissioning process pursuant to part 50 of title 10, Code of Federal Regulations.
