Research reactors

Civilian (private and university) research and test reactors licensed to operate

Civilian (private and university) research and test reactors formerly licensed to operate

Research and test reactors Under decommission order(s) or license amendment(s) are authorized to decontaminate and dismantle their facility to prepare for final survey and license termination. Research and test reactors with possession-only licenses are not authorized to operate the reactor, only to possess the nuclear material on-hand. They are permanently shut down.
