Classification: Details on Naval Nuclear Energy Propulsion Systems

In the realm of naval nuclear propulsion, maintaining safety and minimizing environmental impact are paramount concerns. This article delves into the regulations and authorities governing these critical aspects.

While the exact authority responsible for banner marking for foundational authorities in the United States remains unspecified, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), serving as a central security agency, could potentially play a role in regulation or oversight related to such markings when connected to security or law enforcement contexts.

The safety and control of radiation and radioactivity associated with these activities are key areas of focus. The associated sanctions for 42 USC 2013 are 42 USC 2168(b) and 42 USC 2168(c).

The topics under discussion revolve around the safety of nuclear reactors and associated naval nuclear propulsion plants. The banner marking for 50 USC 2511 is CUI//SP-NNPI, and the category marking for these topics is NNPI.

This article aims to shed light on locating source documents for CUI Authorities. The Safeguarding and/or Dissemination Authority for these topics is 42 USC 2013, marked as Basic and with CUI banner marking. Another Safeguarding and/or Dissemination Authority is 50 USC 2511, marked as Specified, CUI//SP-NNPI, and related to NNPI.

It's important to note that this article does not provide new facts about the prescribing, enforcing, and controlling standards and regulations for the safety of reactors and associated naval nuclear propulsion plants. Nor does it offer new insights into controlling radiation and radioactivity associated with these activities, or the environment, safety, or health of workers, operators, or the general public.

Despite not offering new information, this article serves as a valuable resource for understanding the existing framework of regulations and authorities in place to ensure the safety and health of those involved in these activities, and to minimise their impact on the environment.
