SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ``Revised Analysis of Decommissioning 
Reference Non-Fuel-Cycle Facilities,'' NUREG/CR-6477 provides estimates 
of the costs of decommissioning for a number of different types of non-
fuel-cycle materials facilities, such as laboratories for the 
manufacture of sealed sources, laboratories for the manufacture of 
radionuclide-labeled compounds, and an institutional user laboratory. 
It is a re-evaluation of the original study of decommissioning costs 
for these types of facilities (NUREG/CR-1754 and NUREG/CR-1754, 
Addendum 1. It is part of a series of reports developed by Pacific 
Northwest National Laboratory providing decommissioning cost 
information.
